1t is stated that more than Eve thousand
votes were thrown out as defective at the
recent election in this State. If no change
is made in the law, the probability is that at
the next election, voters will know better
how to mark their ballots and the num-
Der of defective ballots will be COM
parstively few. The quiet which prevails
at elections under the law is more than an
offset to loss of five thousand votes. We
were not in favor of the law when it was
enacted. We are in favor of it now and
trust that it will not be altered in any way.
Let the voters learn how to vote under the
law

1t is to be hoped that the present ballot
law of the State will not be hashed over
during the coming session of the Legisla-
ture. If left alone, the people will at the
next election be more familiar with its ma
nipulation; but, if changed again, they will
find its new intricacies as puzzliug as the
old. As the system now stands, it is far from
perfect, of course; but would it not be bet
ter to allow it to remain as it is for few
years, until it was learned by experience
how.to make some real improvement in
stead of merely change?

We know of no one who can derive more
satisfaction from the result of the election
in this State than our representative in
Congress, Hon. c. A. Boutelle. On all &C.
casions in Congress he has been a sturdy
and fearless champion of stalwart Republi-
canism. Speaker Crisp tried to silence him
in Congress by sights and snubs, and the
worst kind of plantation manners, but
he had his say and his shots always
told. The Democratic press, with a few
honorable exceptions, and particularly the
Mugwump attachment to the Democratic
press, tried to sheer him down. He goes
back to Congress with a majority larger
than the combined majorities of almost
any half dozen Democratic congressman.
Speaker Crisp has been one of the most
unfsir and partisan speakers who has ever
occupied that important position. We
shall be glad to see Reed again in the
speakers chair. and Crisp subject to his
rulings
