The town officers are deserving of much
credit for the arrangement and carrying
out of the Australian ballot which was
thought by some to be very difficult al
first There was not the least trouble or
difficulty in putting this new method Of
voting into effect. Some however had not
made application to have their names
registered, and their names were not found
on the voting list. This evidently was
mistake or au oversight, a there was no
disposition on the part Of the town officers
to deprive any man Republican or Demo
crat, of his vote. The law requires that
every voter appear at the registers office
and give In his name In order to have il
enrolled before election. This is probably
where the mistake was, as some had failed
to present themselves, not understanding
