Resident entrymen of public lands shall be qualified as petitioners for the organization of an irrigation district, and entrymen residing on lands included within any district, the plans and maps of which have been approved by the secretary of the interior, if otherwise qualified, shall be qualified electors at elections upon bond issues and special assessments whether or not they are real property taxpayers for the purpose of general taxation.
