THE ANCIENT VOTER.
HOW THE ANCIENT ROMAN USED TO
CAST HIS BALLOT.

Cincinnati Commercial-G .E
Where did the ballot come from?
Like Topsy and NEST other human
institutions, il "growed.H And IN
lis growth it has taken such varied
form rs will make an interesting
study. OF course, in the good old
times, when all civilized countries
were governed by kings, there was
no use for ballot. A primitive,
self. governing tribe like those OF
the ancien, Germans, were satisfied
with viva voce voting. The Jews,
before they had kings, might be
called seli-governing pe"ple.
Strictly. however, their theory OF
government put everything in the
hands of God, and in technical
terms was a ,heocracy. II 4 public
officer must be chosen, he was
named by Gods representative, the
priest or prophet, or else lots were
cast, aud il was expected that God
would send the right lOi to the
right man. 1t is not unlikely that
such casting Of lots gave the first
hini of secret ballot.
Tie ancient Greeks used the
ballot in enacting laws and in
courts where there were large
number of judges. The ballot
there was originally a pebble,
whole for yes vote, or pierced with
a hole for IA no. Sometimes there
was only one stone, which was
dropped into a yes or no box.
Later the pebble was changed for a
little bronze wheel. A few OF
these have been found in modern
times, stamped on one side with
The words Official Ballot" and on
the other with The number of The
judicial district.
In electing officers the Greeks
voted by show of hands. Often
officers were appointed by lot.
White and black beans were used
for lots, and those who were un-
derstood 10 be hungry for office
received the suggestive name OF
bean eaters. The idea here was
that every citizen was good candi-
dates in The modern fashion, but
only 10 vote against them.
Ii party spirit was running high,
and the power Of boss was grow
ing dangerous, vote OF exile was
ordered. Each citizen wrote a
name on an oyster she'll or piece
of broken crockery, and put this
vote secretly into The box. Any
boss against whom there was a
sufficient majority must leave The
country for ten years.
This peculiar institution, called
is really the nearest
The Greeks made 10 a
modern ballot system. Osiracism
went out of use because On GER
tam important occasion The thun-
,erbolt failed TO hit either of the
prominent leaders, but slruck a
comparatively obscure person.
The details are not quite clear.
Ii has been suggested, however.
thai the great bosseS made a deal
by which they were to let each
other alone, and give all the votes
10 a troublesome third parry man.
This result was so unsatisfactory
TO the people that ostracism was
given up.
The ballot was introduced into
Rome i'm the second century before
Christ. This was the real Austria
han ballot. The voter received a
sort OF wooden slaIe covered with
wax, on which The names OF all The
candidates were scratched. lie
made holes IN the wax opposite
those Of his choice, and dropped
his tablet in the box.
