The township Of Centre, 10 Berks coun'
| ty, has adopted an original and novel meth
| cd OF choosing supervisors. school directors,
assessors, auditor, Clerk and other offices.
Neither Of the two politica parties will hold
meetings for the purpose OF nominating
| towush Ip tickets. Those who have any as
| piratiOus for any OF the township officers
are expected to go TO the polling place q
certain. number OF days before the
/ election, deposit ten cents with the pro-
pretor Of the house aud write his name on
/ the list of candidates. The aggregate amount
received as entrance fees will be expended
for the printing OF tickets. which will con-
! tain the names OF all the candidates. This
method has many OF the features OF the
| Australian system. Il was tried in the
/ township before, but some Of the electors
| voted for every person on the ticket, and
others became badly confused in marking
their tickets. 1t Is nov believed that the
system will work satisfactorily.
