city an honest. business administration. and 10
continue the reforms and Improvements which

yUr EPISCOPAL GENERAL CONVENTION


Same churchn.an has humorously said that the
,riucin,l function of a General Convention or
the Euiscopal Church is to refer measures to
thc next convention. Judged by that standard.

SYNOD II also voted adversely on the resolu-
tion of the Rev. DR.. W. X. Huntington. OF this
city. authorizing individual bishops to take under
their care congregations OF other Christian
bodies provided they conformed TO the doctrines
and discipline OF the Church. And thus ends for
the time the well-meant attempt to bring about
an organic unity Of Chrstendom Oh the basis
Of the Lambeth "quadrilateral" In DR.. Hunt
ington's resolution the four points OF the "quadri
lateral were carefully safeguarded: and yet 1t
was defeated because ii did not make the Use of

present at least. II Is impracticabe. The Church
finds itself unable TO make any concessions, and

THE BLANKET B4ILOT.

II is Of the highest Importance that voters
throughout the State should take pains 10
inform themselves thoroughly regarding the
new blanket ballot law. under which the
vote will be cast for the first time next
month The ballot reform which the State
has been permitted TO have up TO the present
time was only much as Governors like Hill
and Flower would allow. and 1t was coupled
with the provisOn--of Hills inventiOn-for Il
paster ballot, which in large measure nullifcd
the purpose of the change made in 1890 in the
method Of voting. A large number Of separate
pieces of paper were handed TO each voter. who
examined them and made his selection. and then
each one had to be folded in a certain way be-
fore the operaion OF voting could be completed.
Hardly anything could be more confusing and
troublesome: and il will be recalled that on one
occasion Roswell = Flower himself had to be
sent back 10 the voting booth to fold his rejected
ballots properly. Still the partial ballot reform
vouchsafed lis was a marked improvement on
the old method which enabled Boss and his
workers to hand out tickets to their men ana
know that they were voted without change.
The new system has the great merit of sim
plicity. since there Will be only a single piece
of paper to be handled and this will be folded
when handed to the voter. requiring only To be
folded on the same lines again after having been
marked The directions for marking ballot rs
given in the abstract Of the law made by Attor-
ney General Hancock which We printed twice
last week. are clear enough for any one OF aver
age intelligence TO comprehend them. To vote
n straight ticket II Is necessary merely 10 make
cross with a black pencil in the circle at the
head Of the party column split ticket can
he made up by marking cross in front OF the
name of each candidate 10 be voted for; and Il
voter who wishes to vote straight ticket with
one or two exceptions can do so by marking the
circle as already described and then placing a
cross before The man or men preferred by him
Ia another column. 1t is important To bear in
