He then continued "You may disregard the broken

ment Suppose there had been an election and there
were three candidates Of something like equal strength
Let these black lines represent the number OF voters
who supported the respective candidates. Under our
present system would be elected by less than half
Of all the voters Now extend the line by adding the
dotted nne d. That is simply TO show that if all OF
Cs supporters should prefer over A. and should name
as their second choice lie would have more supporters
than A. and would be elected"
"That would be a good thing for B."

is tho object to be aseerained. BY the proposed sHs
TEN that will would be more fully expressed. ma
FORTY OF the voters would have agreed on one man.
"Thcn the supporters Of do not lose their votes7"
Precisely. They do not vote into the air. The
State has interest in having every vote counted for
one of the two principal candidates for them and not
otherwise vote aids in determining an election
Moreover voters would then be supplied with an in
centve TO 90 to the polls, even though they belonged
TO a minority party
But how is voter TO make known his second

That depends upon the ballot used. Where the
state does not print the ballot the of the first

second next Where the Australian system is used.

banner styled them The Cleveland Club and as one
OF the race can faithfully say that never more
debased and degraded gang II the Democrats
drummed those up for effect and an impression for
other coored voters to follow. 1t was dismal failure
as these men do not represent IN any way their

was surprised. as you never see such bold colored
Democrats and besides, the negroes viii not ne bull

A NEW METHOD OF VOTING,

SUBJECT TO BALLOT REFORM.
Ballot reform is subject that has attracted large
amount of attention In the last few years. Meanwhile
Daniel S. Remsen, member of the New-York bar,
has been devoting good deal Of study TO the Quesnoh
OF election reform as he terms IL. The problem, as
terscy put by him, is 10 convert two minores INTO
majority. An outline OF his system was given in
"The Century" for December. In order TO learn
something further about It, and Just what 1t is pro-
posed TO accomplish by the new method, member OF
The Trfbune's staff visited Mr. Remsen day or two
ago at his Office IN wallst When asked TO point out
the difference between baloS reform and election re-
form, Mr.. Remsen said
Ballot reform as now understood. refers to the
form OF the ballot and the method OF putting IL into
the box while election reform refers rather to tile
power efficiency of the ballot after it is put INTO
the box"
@What do YOU aim to accomplish by the system Of
election you propose''
"Simpy 10 provide a means whereby majority
can more easily unite their sufrages You kho"
two minorities make o majority. The Trouble no"
lies in the Inability Of mnorities to unite Ihey nave
to agree on single candidate before election ~
large number of voters are apt to be dissatisfied BE-
cause member Of their own party or faction did not
receive the nomination. The result is that they are
lukewarm and fail to register or to vote they nave
registered"
"How can that be remedied1"
GBy allowing the voter to indicate his second choice
ms well as his frstchoce candidate on his ballot, and
then have his vote count for his second-choce cand
date in case his frstchoce candidate stands third or
worse in the Perhaps this can be best explained
BY means of diagram"
MI Remsen then took his pencil and drew three
parallel lines of unequal length and marked each one

n1scIrssTNG TEXAS RATES.

Nev.orleans, Oct. 27 (speclaD-The southwestern
Railroad and steamship Association rate committee IS
in session in this city. The object OF the meeting IS
10 consider the question of through rates from Texas
principally as to cotton The general impression Is
that the present dlerentias will be allowed to remain
in force Tho Mississippi Valley Roads cotton e-
ceipts to-day were the largest ever brought Into TINS
city In any one day by single railroad. Inc hguIes
were ID O33 bales. On November 10 OF last year tie
same road brought in 1929 bales which ecpsed all
previous records and the road has now beaten It's own
record.
The stories sent out from Memphis with reference
to the absorption Of the Mississippi Valley road by the
Illinois Central Company are discredited here Presl-
dent Fish. when here a few days ago, met inquiries
of all sorts with the reply that the Illinois Central
was neither purchasing non building new roads, but
developing its energies to improving those l. already
controls. President Fish and President wilson dld
consult but IL was with reference 10 entering the sta
ZION which the Illinois Central Is building here Tie
Mississippi Valley will doubtless enter to be followed
by the Texas and Pacific and other roads.
