Aguinaldo was quietly transferred to
the launch, which steamed up the

of the Malacanan palace, where the
prisoner disembarked almost un-

Some hours elapsed before the news
of Aguinaldo's capture was generally
known. The fact that he was pris-
Oner caused joy and congratulntion
among the Americans. The native
population was apathetic. There was
no particular excitement anywhere.
After being convinced of Aguinaldos
capture, General Geronimo, the insur-
gent leader in the province of Mo-
rong, LuZon, has surrendered with six
officers, forty-six men and fifty rifles
to Colonel ]. Milton Thompson, Forty
second regiment, at San Mateo.
AS the news of Aguinaldos capture
spreads through the archipelago the
insurgents are becoming dishearteneG
and there is a marked increase in the
number of individual surrenders.
General Cailles, who is particularly
outlawed on account of his atroclous

The habit of adding additlppal re-.
strictlons and regulations to our Aus

observed by the next legislature, and
more rules something like the follow
ing may be adopted:
Any ballot shall be wholly void,
If the lines compGMpg the cross X
mark do not form Tour distinct and
complete right angles at a point of in
tersection within any circle or square;
or,
Ii the cross Y mark in any circle does
not touch the circumference Of said cir
Gle at four different and distinct points:
or,
If cross Y mark in any circle pro-
trudes beyond the circumference of
said circle; or,
If the voter has failed to vote for any
one named or unnamed, or who might
have been named on the ballot within
any of the squares or circles: or,
If the voter has voted for the names
of more candidates than those whose
names can be written on the ballot
with a No. 3 Faber in the blank or any
other column; or.
Ii the voter absent. mindedly puts the
ballot in his pocket and carries it home
with him, and it eventually lodges on
the kitchen shelf; or,
Ii the ballot has been written upon
or marked with anything but a pink
lead pencil with square rubber held
at an angle of As degrees.

THE NEW BALLOT LAW.
Topeka State Journal:

In nearly every county In the state q
vigorous and healthy protest Is going
up because of the rules, regulations and
requirements Of the new ballot law.
The fact that even n lax enforcement
of the regulations DISTINGUISHED about
ID per cent of all the voters who at
tempted to follow the instructions Of
the law-and in some localities the
number of ballots thrown out was so
per 1cent of all that were cast-is
enough to warrant all the auathemas
that are going up from the country
press.
The trouble lies in the regulations
which the law prescrlbes for the voters,
aud the ambiguity with which they are
expressed. Take, for example, this
rule:
A ballot is void, ''if name or names
be written thereon other than the name
of some person whose name is not
printed on the ballot for whom the
voter has voted In the blank column"
Now isn't that explicit? IL IS as clear
as the proverbial mud. Scholarly
minds have put In hours in an attempt
to decipher Just what that means. but
they frequently reach different conclu-
sions, if they reach conclusion at all.
The legislator who managed to put
that combination of words together
ought TO be able to take sweepstakes
in prize puzzle contest without any
special effort. Some lawyers seem to be
specially gifted in the framing of am
blguous laws, and full supreme court
docket is the result.
Other regulations provide that bal
lot shall be void if there Is a mark on 1t
outside of square or circle; If cross
is made in the circle an another in a
square further down the same ballot,
unless there is one in every square; if
there have been any erasures on the
ballot, or il 1t is marked with anything
but pencil with a black lead.
Under those regulations the chances
are about even for the average man to
get his ballot marked right. If this sort
OF thing keeps up the magazines will
soon contain advertisements like this:
