The campaign to redeem New York
State from Odellism is one that appeals
strongly to the men who compose the
Citizens Union. The policy Of that Or
ganization is not to engage in political
contests outside the municipal corpora
ton of New York city, but the reasons
that impel voters to associate themselves
together to bring about a reform in
a subdivision of the State operate as
strongly to array them for reform In the
State itself.
The defeats of Tammany in 1894 and
in 1901 were due to the subversion Of the
government Of New York city to the
will of one man, who used it to further
his own selfish and personal ends. To-

The Split Ticket.

The ease with which a voter may cast
his ballot on Nov. for the Republican
candidates for electors Of President and
Vice-President and for the Hon. d. CADY
HERRIcK for Governor and the Hon
FRANCIS BURTON HARRISON for Lieu
tenants Governor is illustrated graphi-
cally in another place in THE Sun to-
day. On the official ballot handed by
the election inspector to each voter be-
fore he enters the voting booth the
names of all the candidates for Office
are printed in columns. The first COL
umn contains the Republican emblem
and the names of that party's nominees.
The candidates for electors Of President
and Vice-President head the list, the
State ticket coming next, and the local
nominees last. The names Of the Demo-
cratic candidates are printed in the
second column. In the illustration
printed to-day a part of each Of these
columns is pictured,
There are thirty-nine candidates for
Presidential elector on each ticket,
that being the number Of electors to
which the State is entitled under the
Twelfth Census. The name of each
candidate occupies a separate division
of the ballot, and at the left of each
name is an enclosed space in which the
voter may make the legal cross OK mark
to indicate his choice OF candidates. In
the illustration printed herewith only the
first five candidates for elector and only
the candidates for Governor and Lieu
tenant Governor on each ticket are
given. These are sufficient to illustrate
the manner in which split ticket should
be voted.
The better way for the voter casting
a split ticket to mark his ballot is shown
in the figure marked a. The voter
disregards entirely the party emblem
and the circle, and makes the legal cross
(X) mark in front of the name Of each
Republican candidate for elector. This
requires that he make thirty-nine cross
(X marks to vote for all the Republican
candidates. 1t Is necessary to vote for
all OF them to make the ballot effective.
Voters do not cast their ballots directly
for President and President. They
vote for the electors. and il they fail to
make the cross X) mark in the space
at the left OF each candidates name, the
men in front Of whose names they neg
lect to make the cross (X) mark do not
receive the vote.
Having made the thirty-nine cross (X)
marks in front OF the names Of the thirty
nine Republican candidates for Presi-
dental elector, the voter shifts to the
second or Democratic column on the
ballot and makes the cross (X) mark in
the spaces In front of the names of
Mr.. HERRIcK, Mr.. HARRISON, and then
in front of the names OF the other can
didates for office for whom he chooses
to vote on whatever ticket they appear.
Marking his ballot in this manner, the
voter must bear in mind that 1t will be
counted only for the candidates in front
of whose names he makes the legal cross
tX) mark. This Is the safest way in which
TO vote q split ticket. There can be no

is generally admitted that II wireless
telegraphy is To be used at all by neutral
vesselss in or near theatre Of opera
tons, whether military or naval certain
restrictions will have to be agreed upon
Among these it is not improbable that
the three-mile limit, which has long
formed the boundary between terri
torial waters and the high seas, will
have to be extended for certain pur-
poses.
Certain incidents of the Far Eastern
contest have rendered it matter of
great moment to define as quickly as
possible by general agreement what
commodities on board neutral vessels
may be treated by belligerents as abso-
lutely contraband, and what articles, on
the other hand, should be regarded as
only condtionally contraband. Abso-
lutely oontraband are such things as
munitions of war, the mere presence OF
which on neutral's vessels bound to a
belligerent's ports would justify the con-
fiscation of such munitions at the hands
Of the other belligerents. Conditionally
contraband are those things which may
or may not be intended for warlike uses,
and the question which has been raised
repeatedly in an urgent form during the
present war relates to the presumption
which, in the absence Of counter evil
dence, shall be held to render certain
commodities on neutral vessels exempt
from seizure.
1t will be remembered that at the
outset of the contest between Russia
and Japan the former Power announced
that provisions, cotton, coal and certain
products of iron and steel, especially
machinery, if found on neutral vessel
bound to a Japanese port, would be
treated as contraband of war. The in
.tention was subsequently carried out
by Russian war vessels, both in the Red
Sea and in Far Eastern waters. We have
often pointed out that neither Great
Britain, so largely dependent on inn
ported provisions for the subsistence
of her population, nor the United States,
the principal purveyor of food prod
ucts to Great Britain, could possibly
acquiesce in the treatment Of food as
absolutely contraband. The determi-
nation of the United States to resist such
an Interpretation OF international law
was expressed clearly in the note adj
dressed by our State Department to
the st. Petersburg Foreign Office. We
lately learned with qualification that, in
difference to the concurrent protests
received from Washington and London,
the Russian Government had receded
from the position originally taken with
reference to food, and had agreed that
hereafter food should be viewed as only
conditionally contraband, that is, should
be exempt from seizure if consigned
not to blockaded port or to any known
agents of belligerent government, or Of
its military or naval authorities, but to
private persons, the subjects or citizens
of such belligerent
We have dwelt once more upon this
question of conditionally oontraband
in order to demonstrate the extreme
importance of having the distinction
between absolutely and conditionally

eral agreement to be reached at the

MIR. McCarren,s Great speech.

The Hon. PATRICK HENRY McCARREN's
Saturday night speech at the banner

effort. Mr.. McCARRRN speaks too seldom.
There will be general cry for him among

bureaus.
Among many great passages We can
pick but three:
"i. He tPAAxHnl stands for everything that Is
opposed 10 tina, for which the Republican candidate
stands"
Mr.. ROOSEVELT stands for the gold
standard. Judge PARKER must stand
for the silver standard.

Evidently the United States is at war
with all the world. Mr.. McCARREN
ought to telephone the dark fact to the
delegates of the Inter-Parliamentary
Union.
s. We have nominated q man who never lifted
his hand nor raised his voice for the nomination.
The nomination sought him."
We hope that Mr.. MCCARREN has sent

lating speech to the unretired retirer
