NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-The polls |
opened at o O'Clock this morning
under the new ballot law. AR I'M
usually large number of workers |
were about the polls, the Peoples |
Municipal League alone supplying a
small army OF them. The pOliti-
clans Of every party made unusual
efforts to get n fall vote early. The
voting, in consequence Of the re-
quiremeuts Of the new law, pre-
ceeded more slowly than usual, but
with greater steadineSss. The new
ballot law did not seem to interfere
TO any great extent with the voting
in the tenement districts, They had
al been instructed in the use 81
pastors, and far more II them than
II the original official ballots were
used. In almost every district, how
ever. citizens lost votes through
failure % comply with the prOyis-
ions OF the law within the pre-
scribed ten minutes. -..
The supreme court judges ruled,
in case a voter is physically dis
abled, an assistant may be allowed
him IN the polling booth. The rem
edy Of the election inspectors was to
bold the voter for perjury if he
swore falsely.
The new ballot reform law worked
smoothly, as n rule, throughout the
| city, and the novel conditions Of a
| secret ballot did not have the pro-
uounced effect on the vote Of the
lower districts which some political
prophets predicted. This was large
| iy due to the energetic work u both
| parties in educating the voters in
the intricacies OF the law before the
election. There were few misunder-
standings.
The total city vote for mayor
shows Grant, ll4, 20; Scott, 81 Loss;
scattering, i5l6.
