To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
Under the Walton voting-system can
an illltcrate voter. after the special con-
stable has prepared his ticket, show hi
ticket 10 the judges to know that IL IS
right: or. i'm other words. can he vote
an open ticket? T. NJ. H.
The law says that the judge Of the cleo
tion selected FOR that purpose shall fur
n.sh the clcctor with an official ballot.
The said clector must then retire with the
ballot. and arrange his ballot. He ehaIl
fold said ballot. with the names Of the
candidates on the inside and hand the
same 10 the Judge Of the election. who
shall place the same In the ballot-box,
without any inspection further than -
assure himself one judge that said bal
lot is u genuine ballot. for which purpose
ne may. without looking at the printed
inside Of ed.d ballot. Inspect the official
seal upon the back thereof. (See eleventh
