The state supreme court last week
handed down an important decision af
fecting the Australian system of ballot
During the campaign last fall we were
told that voter could mark an X at the
head of his ticket and if he desired to
vote for any nominee of any other party
on the same ticket he could do SO by
marking an X to the left of such name.
The case in dispute was the case OF
Brooks VS.. Fransham, from Gallatin
county, and the court holds that two
marks on ballot in the manner describss I'd
above cannot be counted. This case
brings out Is ballots in which the parties
voted the democratic ticket by placing
an \ in the circle, and then marked an \
opposite the name of Fransham, republi
can. The district court held that the lat
ter was elected, but the supreme court
says in such case the judges of election
cannot tell which candidate the voter in
tended to cast Lis ballot for as he votes
for both. The decision shows that man
who does not want to vote straight party
ticket must leave the circle alone at the
head of the ticket and mark an X before
every candidate for whom he intends to
vote. In this way he will make no mis-
take.

And "hope that springs eternal
Within the human breast"
Points to the good time coming
When all is peace and rest.
