There are persons who, not under
standing the new ,nethod OF voting,
may feel timid about attempting IL. IL
is simple and easily understood. The
following explanation and directions
will enable Republicans To vote so that
their ballot shall count:
All ballots are printed at public ex-
pense, and when the voter goes TO the
polls an election inspector will hand
him one ballot, which must be voted
whole.
Having got his ballot. the voter will
90 into one of the booths OF closets
where he will find desk. some rubber
stamps and an ink pad. On one end of
the small stamp is IA cross Xxi and by
pressing this end of the stamp first on
the ink pad and then upon the paper it
will mark cross upon the paper.
The tickets of all parties are printed
upon the ballot, side by side. In this
county the Republican ticket occupies
first place on the ballot and is designat-
ed by the picture of President Harrison
on the American flag, with the words
Republican ticket" underneath same.
A small square will be found directly
underneath the picture.
In order that the inspectors may
know which of the four tickets upon
the ballot to count, the voter must mark
his ticket. If he wishes to vote the Re-
publican ticket he must make cross
with the stamp in the small square un-
der President Harrison's picture, at the
head of the ticket. BY doing SO he indi-
Gates that he wants to vote the Republi-
can ticket straight. If he should mark
the heads of two tickets, neither would
be counted and he would lose his vote.
Upon the back of the ballot, in one
corner, are written the initials of one
of the inspectors of election. The bal
lot must be so folded that no part of the
face can be seen, and SO as to have the
initials on the outside, SO they can be
seen by the inspectors when handed
them to be deposited in the ballot-b box.
Fold your ballot before leaving the
booth.
After folding the ballot, the voter
goes out of the booth at the opposite
side from which he entered, and hands
his ballot to the inspector of election,
who puts it in the box i'm his presence.
To recapitulate:
1st-Get ballot from an Inspector of
election.
2d-Take it to the booth.
3d-Mark the small square at the
head of the Republican ticket with the
rubber stamp.
4th-Fold the ballot so the initials on
the back can be seen.
5th-Hand the ballot to the election
inspector in charge of the ballot-box.
6th-Keep cool and you are all right.

MIssIoNERY SOCIETY PROGRAM.


Register Barrett is such an intense ad-
mrer of the national Republican ticket
that he has purchased three lives OF Ben
jsmin and Whitelaw. Hes first ordered
one, then ordered another so as to get
their history more fully and then ordered
third so as TO be sure that nothing in
their lives could escape him. The books
came yesterday and his feelings can be
easier imagined than described when he
found that the three works were exactly
the same. He bought them from three
different agents who, it might be added,
will do well to have their lives insured
before he sees them again.
