The paragraph entitled information
to voters tells how the ballot should
be marked for voting. There are
about It's squares on the ballot in
which man might make cross
mark if he should desire to, and while
it is comparatively simple matter to
vote a split ticket, still the tendency
with such large and apparently
complicated ballot, will be to vote
straight, by making cross mark XXI
in the large square at Che head OF the
ticket under the appropriate party
designation. Electors should remem-
Der that this is the way in which th9y
may be absolutely certain Of not
making mistake so that their ballot
may be surely counted. It is perfect
ly simple, swift and easy to vote a
straight ticket and there is no liabili-
ty to error. If there are many split
tickets in the ballot boxes ON election
day it will take an unconscionable
time for the election officers to get
through with the work Of counting
them. The labor of counting the vote
will this year be more arduous than
ever before, and it will be later Of
course before the result is known.
