from the inspectors regarding alleged difficulties in
counting the ballots" the Senator continued. but
these largely the fault Of the inspectors them
selves The delay in making returns seems 10

which permits inspectors 10 pass upon the inten-

strict provisions OF the act. This provision was
inserted because | feared that a vas. number Of
voters might through ignorance. fan observe
the strict letter regarding voting marks. ami TO
preyent the vote in such cases from being lost"
The Senator sale that he intends to propose
eral amendments To the law which the practical

Raines said There is no question In my mind that
