The Presidential Election.
To the Inspectors Of Election, Geographic
and Nearsnnnea. Edltnrs and Rennrtnrc Il

To the Inspectors Of Election, Geographic Operators,
and Newspaper Editors and Reporters throughout
the Union.
The public will look for the result of the Fresden-
tial election the 5th of November. To enable the
newspaper press of the Union TO declare the result
the following morning it will be necessary for
the inspectors of election throughout the United
States to aid the Geographic operators to aid the
editors in every town, village, and city, and for
the editors and reporters to aid each other. This
can be done by conining their labors the night
of the election to the Presidential vote alone.
Let the inspectors everywhere count the first vote.
Let The telegraphic operators transmit the Presden-
tal vote only on that night. This plan will enable
the press to announce the result the morning after
the election, even if the contest be close one. We
hope this plan will be adopted No other will sue
coed. 1t will simplify the labor, make it easier, save
time and satisfy the people
Country and city editors will promote the oh ject in
view by publishing this note.
