FOR the ProhlbltIon candidates. !
If you wish 10 vote split ticket put all X
mark opposite the name of each candidate

HOW Ii Works.
The ballot follows with the names of the
candidates and the parties they represent,
printed in the same form as the tickets two

that the voter shall mark every name i'll
order 10 vote a split ticket. For example,
if the voter wishes to vote for the straight
Repu blIcan ticket with two eXcep-
tons, lie places the cross marks,opposite the
words, For the Republican candidates in
the above form. and the same mark opposite
the two names which he wishes to except
from the straight Republican, ticket. In other
words. mark opposite the words for the
candidates OF - party indicates that
the vote is cast for all candidates of that
party, with the exception of those which he
designates by cross mark in the body of the
ballot. Thus the amendment rather facili-
tales than checks straight voting.

registration, and provides that i'll cities of over
10000 Inhabitants there shall be an entirely
new registration at each election the object
being to do away with the certificates of re-
moyal i'll vogue at the last election, which
gave 50 much dissatisfaction i'll the cities of
81. Paul and Minneapolis last fall. The
amendment also provides fer four instead of
three days Tor registration. In cities of less
