are not received with anything Ike the
quickness that they are in other states
In the last election We knew at Indian
apolis how New York and several other
states had gone before the result in Marion
county was learned, and the result in the
state was left in painful uncertainty for
several days. We predict that IL any
amendment 10 the election law shall be
found necessary in the future 1t will be In
the line OF providing for q speedier return
OF the vote.
To substitute a pencil for a stamp in
marking ballots is to invite distinguishing
marks. 1t is very easy to add little
flourish or dot to the cross usually pre-
scribed when q pencil is used, or there
may be adopted some peculiar form oil
cross by which the ballot may Dc
10 a. titled This has been done in every
sta.e and county where the pencil has
been tried. There are number OF cases
in the reports of the chief courts
of Australian colonies involving the
question OF what is and what Is
not distinguishing mark, and there
will always be controversies arising
when the pencil is used. Such contro'
versies are usually decided favorably to
the party to which a majority OF the board
belongs. The Indiana law endeavors to
avoid such disputes by providing for a
stamp mark and prescribing definitely
how that mark must be placed on the bal
lot. 1t leaves as little room as possible
for any discretionary power in the
board for the acceptance or reJec-
ton of ballots on account OF improper
marking. This lie in the interest OF fair
ness to all parties. The use OF the stamp
necessitates large ballot, because per-
son whose hand is not steady may not
touch the square precisely, and If the
squares were close together might strike
two squares at once.
1t may be accepted without question
that there is no provision OF the election
law that is not founded on some good
reason. The law received a great deal OF
attention from the Legislature Of 1889, and
it's only material faults were corrected by
the legislature OF 1891. OF course
the republican party will endeavor
to misrepresent it and 10 get
Objectionable features into II. That is
natural. They hate the Jaw most or
daily. 1t has broken their hold on Indiana
by preventing bribery and intimidation
and fraud. They make their attacks un'
der the pretense OF economy, but the peo-
pie OF Indiana want no economy that
opens the door to fraud in elections. A
man who holds a few dollars Of expense

tions is not fit to vote. lie has no con-
oeption OF the meaning or importance oil
popular government The best thing the
present legislature can do with the cleo.
ton law is TO leave IL alone. IL has &C
complished its purpose thus for. The peo-
pie ara well satisfied with it. No sufficient
reason is being urged Tor any proposed
change in II.

Don't disturb the EIcc,ion LAW.

While the legislature is dealing with the
election law, why does II not increase tho
size OF election precincts 10 AZ 20 materially
reduce the expenses? Why does il not re-
duce the size OF the ballots and substitute
a pencil Tor the clumsy thing called a
stamp. with it's ink-pad ?-JourliaL
II the legislature - dealing with the
election law" and II IL much 10 be hoped
thai 1t Is not. n would be extremely fool
ish TO do either. This size OF the election
precincts is one Of tho most important
features OF the present law. Its primary
value Is that IL prevents illegal voting by
bringing each polling place within neigh
boFhood limits. With tho present limit
there Is a reasonable opportunity for the
party representatives in each party TO To-
cate every voter and learn who are not
voters before election day arrives. There
IL also a probability that the cleo
ton officers will DO acQuainted
with eli / he voters in the precinct, and so
the ouestion.as 10 the legal qualifications
OF voters will be reduced to its smallest
possible proportions. This being done,
the attention of all concerned il concsn-
trated on thoss whose qualifications are
doubtful. and there Is little liability that
nyone will be permitted to vote who il
not entitled TO do 30.
In the second place. the small size OF
the precincts insurss more rapid return
OF the vote. aud does awav with the ex-
cuse for holding back returns in large
precincts until the officials learn "how
much majority is wanted" That was a
form OF fraud that was repeatedly prac-
ticed under the old system, but
IL Ia not possible now. Even
under the new Law the returns

The other day during the trial OF ono OF
the numerous Homestead cases at Pitts
burg Judge SrowE grew impatient because
the counsel for the defense passed some
criticisms on the Pinkertons and broke
forth in the following language:

men were going to Homestead on lawful
GRAND. and had a right to 90. Even II the
Pinkertons had been going there 10 take

doing so, and no ono has n right 10 dispute

understand that just now such ideas as
YOU attempt 10 advance never have been

vance such sentiments. and l will allow
no one 10 advance them here.

not in any sense ansrchistic. IL has been
developed that these PiuKsrtons were not

not deputy sheriiIs; they were band OF
