p In all this talk about changing tn

I. In all this talk about changing the
manner of voting, the best suggestion
we have seen comes from the Cynthi-
ana Democrat. 1t suggests electric
gloves-the right hand for democrats
and the left for republicans. BY a
simple arrangement the glove directs
the stencil to the proper place and
stamps under the device. or course
should a republican get his hand in
the democratic glove, or vice versa, a
circuit would be closed that would re-
suit in instant death. Still, night
schools would be necessary to teach
the intelligent voter his right hand
from his left; and in many instances it
would be necessary to dehand voters
to prevent their voting themselves
into kingdom to come.
