LEIDK is BRAVE.
Dares to Attack Party Measure he
Believes Is Wrong.

The senate went into committee of the
whole this forenoon to consider the
Pestana election bill. The amendment
offered by Senator Leidy yesterday be-
fore the senate adjourned was discussed
and was voted down
Senator BFanine defended the bill in
regard to the number of ballots. ex-
planning that in case one of the ballots
was invalid the voter would still have
voted for a part of the officers if he
voted correctly on another ballot
Senator Pesfana. asked the Republi-
cans to refrain from offering amend
ments to the bill, stating that the com
mittee had considered carefully all sug-
gestions made while the bill was in its
hands, and he said also that the COM
mittees on elections from both houses
would be obliged to consult on the bill
before its passage, and that changes
suggested could be discussed then.
Senator Leidy refused to be called
down, and again got the floor and spoke
against the bill. He called the atten-
ton to the fact that three ballots
would cost much more than one ballot,
and that the one ballot would facilitate
the count. He also argued against the
number of clauses in the bill which in
validate the ballot He said that fully
one-tenth of the ballots would be voted
incorrectly, and would be invalid unless
the bill was simplified. He called at
tention to the fact that a cross made
opposite q name on the ballot and then
lot although every other name on the
ticket was voted correctly and it would
be the evident desire of the voter to cast
his ballot for the names properly
marked. He said that he was in favor
of the section of the bill preventing a
name appearing more than once on the
ballot.
Senator NIorehouse spoke in favor of
the bill and defended particularly the
section providing for two ballots one
for national and state officers and one
for county officers. He claimed that
local affairs would be better consid-
cred if the local ballot was separate
from the national and state ballot.
Senator Householder proposed to
strike out the section that provides for
an emblem at the head of each column
He said that the reason the Republicans
wanted the emblem was so that
ignorant people who could not read the
party name could make a. mark under
the emblem of a rooster and thus cast
a Republican ballot. His amendment
was voted down by a strictly party
vote.
Senator Leidy got the floor several
times and offered amendments, but the
other Republicans continued to run the
band wagon over him.
Senator Cubbison spoke in favor of
Senator Leidy's amendment providing
that the cross mark opposite any of the
names viii not inva1idate the ballot, but
that the ballot shall be counted if prop
erly marked in the circle at the head
of the ticket.
The senate then adjourned for dinner.
