The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1894-12-08

There appears to be a very general
sentiment among tho legislators-elect in
favor of legislation regulating primary
elections. The sentiment in THIS direction
Is. i'll fact, SO strong, arising out of the
notorioui abuses which have crcpt into
our caucus system, that there is danger
that resort may be had to too stringent
and comprehensive legislation. In fact, a
few simple provisions would suffice for
the correction of such evils az can he
reached by Legislation at all. One of these
should clearly be that any one voting a
the primaries of one party should be held
guilty of m%isdemeanor If found veting at
the primaries OF another party preceding
any election. There are other necessary
safeguards, of course; but this is one of
the essentials. In the main the covering
committee of each party organization
should be allowed 30 make the ruIos gov
erning their primaries and the qualifca-
lions for voting thoreat.-Pionee Press.

THE NEXT BALLOT REFonu

We desire once more, in advance IF +ho

pubic to the great value of the votino
machine, and to the propriety of eiyino
10 the people of the citiet and towns OF
this state the right to use it if thew see ft.
This privilege has been granted in New
York by one OF tho constitutional smena-
ments recently adopted. and it seems
probable that the voting machine will
shortly supersede the blanket ballot. and
tina clerks and Judges as canyassers.
everywhere except in the rural district
or the state, We have SO often described
the construction and operation of this
machine that it ia not necessary to Oh
over 1t again. 1t offers many advantages.
IL secures an absolutely secret ballot. II
helps the illiterate voter. 1t enables ar
vote tn be cast in Il short time
ana: BEST Of all, while offering all the
benefits of the Australian ballot. IL cdnnts
the vote for each candidate as cast. and
NA'A
gives the result as soon as the polls ore
slosed and the machine unlocked.
All the tedious process of counting Is
abolished, All possibilities of @tannerinp
with the returns, of casting fraudulent
oaiiots' os altering the tally sheets. of in
teriering III any way with the will of the
people as automatically recorded by ms
chlHery are wiped out. The voting mn
chine Is almost as much of an i,,prova.
ment on the Australian ballot system rs
That was upon the old method of yotiry.
The only complaint of the people against
the existing law Is the labor involved in
%conntivg the vote. It can be done AWAY
with and the cost of printing the ballots
would, in u short time, defray the ex pense
of purchasing machines. These need not
be forced on any one. bnt q %comraunity
should have the right to use them if it so
desired. We hope that the necessary per-
mission will be gi len by the legislature at
it's coming session. Before another two
years have passed, it is probable that the
voting machine will be in general use in Il
large number Of the states.--Pioneer

his associates and friends among
the eficers and employees OF the

wishes of Mrs. Dunn, widow of
the deceased, who resides in Will
mington. As mark of the great
regard in which the deceased was

risers and when their breakfast
had been dispatched the members
of the party began their trip.
The first point of interest was
the seine hauling at Weymouth
Point on the mainland. The Presi~
dend, Mr.. Gresham and Captain
Evans landed from the Violet and
inspected the workings of the
Davis and Weymouth fishery on
Crooton Sound. The tide was about
flood, and the party was in time
to see one haul Of the great seine.
Taking to their gig again the
party then crossed Crooton Sound
and landed on Roanoke Island,
about two miles distant. Here con-
veyance were taken and the parts
visited some OF the historical
points On the Island, including
Fort Raleight aud Ballast Point,
where Sir Walter Raleigh landed
the ballas which he brought in his
little ship from England on one of
his voyages to the new world. 1t
was near this place that Virginia
Dare was born, the first white
native of Virginia. The President
also stopped for time at the quaint
little village of Manteo, thus
touching civilization for the first
time since leaving Washington last
Sunday.
