"(e) Under this formula for representation in the House of
Delegates any county entitled to more than six and not more than
twelve delegates shall be divided into two districts; any county
entitled to more than twelve delegates and not more than eighteen
delegates shall be divided into three districts; and any county en-
titled to more than eighteen delegates shall be divided into four dis-
tricts. The General Assembly shall determine the number of dele-
gates which shall be elected from the districts into which any county
may be divided under the provisions of this sub-section, except that
more than six delegates shall not be elected from any one district.
The determination of the General Assembly as to the boundaries of
districts and the number of delegates elected therefrom shall be
conclusive.

6. The members of the House of Delegates shall be elected by
the qualified voters of the counties, and the legislative districts of
Baltimore City, respectively, to serve for four years, from the day
of their election. In any county which is divided into districts under
the provisions of Section 5 of this article, the members of the House
of Delegates shall be elected, respectively, by the qualified voters of
the district in which each resides and is a candidate.

9. No person shall be eligible as a Senator or Delegate who at
the time his election is not a citizen of the State of Maryland, and
who has not resided therein for at least three years next preceding
the day of his election, and the last year thereof, in the county or
in the legislative district of Baltimore City, which he may be chosen
to represent, if such county, or legislative district of Baltimore City,
shall have been so long established; and if not, then in the county,
or city, from which in whole or in part, the same may have been
formed; nor shall any person be eligible as a Senator, unless he shall
have attained the age of twenty-five years, nor as a Delegate, unless
he shall have attained the age of twenty-one years, at the time of his
election. In any county which is divided into districts under the
provisions of Section 5 of this article, a person is not eligible as a
Delegate who has not also resided for at least six months preceding
the day of his election in the district in which he is a candidate. "

Which was laid over under the rules.
