This statement is simply untrue" said Mr. A.

ticket, which every voter should clearly know. one
way Is by not making cross mark in the circle al
the head OF any column. but by making simple
mark In the voting space In the front OF the
of each and every candidate FOR whom the

be counted only for those candidates for whom he
has indicated his desire to vote. aforesaid. The
second and most usual way OF voting split ticket
and one that is authorized by Rule 3. Section H. OF
