CONSIDERABLY EXPENSE.
The New Ballot Law Will Cost Dick
inson Something.


On another page the REFLECTOR
today publishes the new Australian
ballot law adopted by the recent ses-
sion of the legislature. The putting Of
the law into effect will be quite an
expensive operation and the counties
will have to stand it. The beneficial
results to accrue will, 1t is expected,
more than Offset the outlay Of money.
1t is estimated that the total expense
to the State will be from $50, 900 to
$75, 900.
Dickinson's share OF this will be
fully $500. In the first place there are
the booths to be provided for each vot-
ing precinct In the county, a booth for
every sixty voters, with an increased
number of judges and clerks. The
cheapest booths made of canvass will
cost 81 so each, while metal booths
cost $40 each. Take the number If
voters in the county and figure up
81 80 or $40 for every sixty aud a fair
idea can be formed Of what it will cost
for booths alone. Mcpherson county
for "A special election has purchased
booths at S. each. Dickinson cast
1904 votes last fall. This would mean
"a booths at So each or 1920. And II
the equal suffragists accomplish their
aim the expense will be still greater.
Then in addition to this there Is the
expense of printing, which will be the
most important item in the whole
account. 1t devolves upon the county
clerk to have cards Of instructions
printed for each of the voters, which
shall contain copies of sections %, %
"a, %, 20, %, % and 30 of the law
All judges are also to be furnished with
full copies of the act in pamphlet form
But as for the county clerk his mani
fold duties will be made overwhelming
Every new measure seems to add tC
the work of this Office while no provis
ion is made to pay for an increase In
the force of assistants. Every either
should read the law throughout anc
understand its provisions.
