INFORMATION FOR
DEMOCRATIC VOTERS
Continued from page ~

voter, after having placed n cross marh
in the square opposite the name DEM.
OCRATIC. in the first column at the
extreme left Of the ballot, should de-
sire to vote. for instance, for Repub-
lican candidate for some ONCE, and
should place 4 cross mark opposite hil
name, his vote for that office would
not be counted for either candidate OF
candidates, because he would by SO
marking vote for tive instead of one
candidate for the same Office.
(NOTE.-The Supreme Court In the
case OF Redman's Election, 173 Pa. st.
Rep, p. 5S,) says: "Under the ballot
law of 1898 II is not enough that the
intention Of the voter may possibly be
ascertained or his irregular or squivo-
cal acts explained by other evidence
than his ballot THE LEGISLATURE
SPECIFICALLY DIRECTED how it
should be prepared and used by the
voter In order to avoid all such In
quiries and the consequences likely to
result therefrom. II was intended that
the ballot when prepared by the voter
and delivered to the proper election
officer should be sslf-sIplanatory."
f.-Ths voter MUST NOT CROSS
OUT ANY NAMES upon the tickets
NOR COVER A NAME WITH A
"STICKER" OR FASTER" except in
the case referred to In the next section
g.-When a candidate has died or
withdrawn. and q substituted nomina-
tion Is made after the ballots are
printed. the new name may be printed
upon "sticker" and pasted OVER to
cover the name Of the deceased or
withdrawn candidate. The voter should.
in placing the "sticker'' over the name
of the candidate SO deceased or with
drawn, use GREAT CARE so as not
to cover MORE THAN the ONE
NAME. Under NO other circumstances
can a "sticksr" be pasted over the
title or any other name.
(NOTE-Chief Justice Sterrett, in
the case OF Little Beaver Township
Election. 165 Pa. St, p. 233, Jan. 7,
1885 says:
THE marking is applicable only to
cdhuiuhtes WuoSo nA4pSS are printed
on the official ballots"
"In case Of persons whose names
are not already upon the ballot, the
only prescribed mode Of voting is by
inserting their names in the blank
spaces prepared therefor in the right
hand column in the of1cial ballot.
1T Is the name only that is to be
thus inserted and net the title OF the
office to be filed.
"A ballot should not be counted

Mr. EDToR:-These frosty mornings
and cool days remind 10 that winter is
rapidly coming on, and warn us, too,
that we must get hustle on to prepare
for its coming. The work Of husking
corn is completed with many farmers,
and not a few have the fodder stored in
their barns, There are. however, quite
number who have a good many shocks
standing yet in their fields. This week

held at Oak Grove, near Jersey Shore
next Spring.
Turbotville has, WITHIN its limits quite

about five hundred inhabitants. Who
