I'll, Australian Enli0f.

ia one of the most ingenious ron
triyances that could have been devised L"
cheat ignorant men from expressing Their
will through the ballot box Through the
blotting of the ballots and the vena'''y Oh
the voters assistants, scores Of men were
thwarted in their intention to vote for
certain candidates at the election last No.
vember. We believe the system is uncom'
s,itutional as well rs expensive and il
sbonld be abolishcd The matter should
claim the attention Of the Constitutional
Convention or the Legislature, Tho for
mer system of every man preparing
written or printed ticket IS greatly to be
preferred. The envelope system suggest
I'D by Thomas b. Courscy is quite rs st.
cret and, We Think, much more popular.
Tbere may be other methods which
would enable the voter to as fully express
his opinion and the matter should be look
ed into at the coming session OF the leg
stature. Voting should be made easy ana
not difficult and domagogues should be
made to feel that full and fair ballot is
the bulwark Of our free institutions and
cheating and dishonesty will not be toll
Grated.
