The Ballot Law.


Ii is uncertain whether any change viii be
made in the Maryland election law, but while
the matter has been and is being considered
by the General Assembly, a discussion OF the
Constitutional provision concerning elections
bv our Washington correspondent, 'Eeritas,
published in this issue, is very timely, as well
a. forcible. AS 10 the advisability Of remov-
ING devices from the ballot. so that illiierate
voters cannot readily designate the ticket OF
the party with which they affiliate, the Apyo-
carr has not definitely concluded While
sueb a law would disfranehise large number
of shiftless. careless and non .iaxpaying voters
ON the Eastern Shore and Southern Maryland,
and break the power Of number Of unsernP-
ulous white Republicans, aud also disfranehise
a considerable number in Frederick, Mont
gomery, Howard, Baltimore and Carroll eoan-
ties. il would also disfranehise some good eiti-
zens and taxpayers in Western Maryland Of
foreign extraction.
Still. the ADVOCATE has remarked that
should the devices be removed, all, or nearly
all, who would be deprived Of their votes
thereby, would only have themselves to blame.
A system of public shoots has been maintained
throughout the state for thirty five years, at
great cost to taxpayers. and it is the fault OF
most illiterates that they cannot read. Aud
further. should the state demand Of voters
that they be able 20 read the ballots they cast
it would not be any hardship upon most hit
crates. The security of the state is Deepen
dent upon the intelligence Of its voters, and
il the state demands some education upon the
part of its voters, II will create a desire TO
learn 10 read and society viii get a greater
return from the large expenditure Of money
for educational purposes.
We commend to our readers perasal of
the letter of onr Washington correspondent.
