How to Vote.

The ballot which will be handed TO
each qualified voter who goes to the poll
next Tuesday will be a cumbersome
affair and the task Of properly mark
ing it may seem to the discriminating
citizen difficult and confusing I'M
dertaking at first blush. By observ-
ing a few simple directions, however,
there need be no trouble in preparing
the ballot within the three minutes al
lowed by law for the purpose.
If you desire to vote straight ticket
merely stamp the emblem at the top OF
the column-the rooster if you are q
Democrat, the elephant If Repub-
lican, and the clasped hands if a So
cialist. Then drop down to the pro-
posed amendments at the
bottom Of the ticket and stamp IN one
of the blank spaces opposite each
amend the first space IT you
are for the proposition, and in the
second if you are against" it. The
words ssfor,' and "against" appear in
black letters at the beginning of the re-
speetive paragraphs, indicating plainly
where the voter should place the stamp
to express his preference as to each OF
the fifteen measures.
Should you wish to vote mixed
ticket, avoid the emblems altogether
and stamp the blank spaces opposite
the names OF the Individual candid ates
whom YOU favor.

mitted by State Superintendent Aswell,
with the manifest purpose OF allaying
some Of the opposition to the bond
amendment, and much stress has been
laid upon the proposed plan OF allot-
ment and expenditure by the advo-
Gates of the scheme. The attorney
general has knocked this prop from
under the already tottering structure,
and there seems to be no other means
of averting its total wreck.
Gov. Blanchard and number OF
prominent educators of the state, in
Guiding Supt. Aswell, are on the hus-
tings advocating the adoption OF the
million-dollar scheme, but there IS
every indication that their efforts will
be ID vain, and that the project will be
defeated by very large majority.

], ", FOLK
Will be Nominated for
Governor.

St Louis, April 10.--As a result of
yesterdays county primaries in various
sections of Missouri, Circuit Attorney
Joseph w. Folk, known far and wide
as the original Doodle prosecutor, is
now safely assured of the Democratic
nomination for governor Of Missouri,
During the last two weeks every
county in the state that has held pri-
maries or township conventions to Sc
lect delegates to the state nominating
convention, has instructed for Folk or
not at all. Only two counties have
failed. TO give instructions, Crawford
and Grundy.
Folk Is making his race strictly on
an anti-boodle platform. He has en-
dorsed and commended frequently all
that is meritorious in the records Of
Democratic administrations OF the
state, but he had steadfastly insisted
that the cure of corruption" is the
issue in Missouri and the only issue
that is up to the Democratic party to
recognize that issue and pledge itself
to the purincation Of the government
OF the state.

The legislature has so many unpass-
ed bills and so much unfinished bust
ness that it may be after corn plant
ing time before they adjourn and go
home in spite of the resolution pass
ed some time ago. The school code,
:he canal bill and all the temperance
legislation is in an unfinished state
and there seems 10 be little possibility
OF an agreement. The trouble is that
the two houses persist in amending
each others bills and all the work has
TO be gone over again. In the mean
time some of the fellows change their
minds about voting.

Weston, Mass, April 10.-Chas. l..
Tucker, the man under arrest for the

Judge Taylor.

The news columns OF this issue car
ry the story that there is a possibility
that Judge Isaac II. Taylor Of Canton
may be the Republican nominee for
secretary of state this fall. The idea
was a new one to the people Of this
city and apparently was surprise to
Mr.. Taylor himself. The movement
found ready favor with the Canton Re-
publicans and many of them were Of
the opinion that his friends in this
congressional district should take the
matter up and push it vigorously.
Judge Taylor is man eminently
qualified for that or any other public
position which requires ability and in
tagrity. In the natural order of things
the next secretary of state will be a
Republican unless there should be a
political revolution in Ohio. This be-
ing the case, the Democrats are as cit
izens interested in who is to fill the
office AS citizens they have the same
interest that a Republican has, and
fer that reason Democratic paper can
give endorsement to the candidacy OF
the popular Cantonian.
While upon the bench as common
pleas judge. Mr.. Taylor never allowed
anything to come between him and
his duty as jurist. The result was
that he retired with the reputation
of being one Of the most able and con-
scientious common pleas judges in the
state. This same loyalty to duty
was Characteristic Of the man when he
held minor Offices in Carroll county
where he lived for many years.
Ihe Republicans Of Canton and tte
people generally favor the movement
and there is no doubt but that if Judge
Taylor will simply announce his will
lingness 10 enter the fight he will Sc
cure e strong following right from the
START.
