MUST PRESERVE THE BALLOT,
The Supreme Court Decides That Blanket
Stickers Must Not be Used.

In the contested election case for
School Directors, appealed from the
Quarter Sessions Court OF Lawrence
county, the Supreme Court, in an
opinion by Chief Justice Sterrett, has
settled an important question as to
the manner in which persons who are
not named upon the official ballot
may be voted for.
At the election held in Little Bea
yer township in February, 1894, many
OF the electors procured printed
blanket slips containing the names Of
persons to be voted for, the titles of
the offices, etc. These slips they
pasted on the right land column of
the official ballot which was devoted
to blank spaces, and when thus past
ed they obliterated all the titles of
offices, the directions for marking.
etc, upon the official ballot and sub
stituted like matters which were print
ed upon these slips. Cross marks
were also made opposite certain
names in this column.
A contest arose and the Court be.
low decided that ballots so pasted and
marked were illegal. An appeal was
taken TO the Supreme Court. In de
Gliding the question Justice Sterrett
quotes from the ballot law aud says
that while it is perfectly right to fill In
the blank spaces it is entirely wrong
to cover up the printed matter. Con.
cluding, he says "To permit the
voter to procure from outside parties
a slip-ticket or sticker, corresponding
in size with said column, and paste
the same over the printed matter, as
well as the blank spaces thereon.
would be contrary to the letter as well
as the spirit of the act. But it is
enough for US to know that no author
ity can be found in the act for doing
any such thing"
The decree OF the lower court was
affirmed.

Representative Fow, of Phila-

bible in administering oaths. He be-
lieves in laying hands on rather than

oath of some folks should, Of course.
be encouraged. But if kissing is in,
effectual, laying hands on the bible
would seem 10 be farcical, tending
rather to weaken than to strengthen
the effect and influence of the oath.
Unless Mr.. Fow can show that tenn.
poral disease emanates from spirit
ual kiss, or that the bible Is not worth
kissing, then we say stick to the old
form. In fact the bible is not kissed,
out simply pressed to the lips of those
who love and fear its admonitions.
AS for those who neither love nor fear
1t, to lay hands on the Almanac of a
weather prophet would answer the
same purpose.

ed for FIVE hours to-day with speeches
by Senators German and Hill on the
subject of Mr.. Hills amendment to
the urgent deficiency bill, by which he
seeks to confer on the United States
court jurisdiction Gn advance of the
collection of the income taxi to de-
eide upon its constitutionality and
validity.
Mr.. German discussed with great
earnestness the condition of the
treasury and opposed warmly any
proposition that would impede the
collection of revenue. In doing SO
ne criticised very freely Mr.. Hills
whole course in regard to the tariff
law. Mr.. Hill defended his position
and retallated upon the Maryland
Senator with an equally severe criti.
cism of his course.

The British lion now showeth her
teeth lest Japan absorb the whole of
China. Recent Shanghai dispatches
are to the effect that instructions are
already issued to Admiral Freemantle
who is in charge of the British feet in
Chinese waters, to use force if neces-
sary to prevent the Japanese squadron
from going up the Yang -Kiang
river. When the first British gun is
fired look out for free fight in which
the hindmost will get what's left of the

There is also a bill proposing to abolish
