Triumph of the v citing Machine.
New York Evening Post


One great Improvement in cleo
ton methods which should come
about before the next presidential
election Is the general introduction
of the voting machine. Every new
place where it has been tried is
pleased with it. One type Of ma
chine which was used in the city Of
Northampton, Mass, enabled the
result there, where nearly 2,4OO
votes were cast, to be known in New
York City within ten minutes after
the polls closed. With the general
adoption Of such system the vote
in any State could be learn. d with
almost entire accuracy early in the
evening of election day. The secret
ballot was vast advance upon the
old method Of voting in assuring
the elector independence, but count
ing is still slow process. A ma
chine which preserves secrecy, pre-
vents the possibility of error or
fraud and tells the result at glance
comes as near perfection as any
popular will that could he imagined.
