HOW TO VOTE

For the benefit Of those who cast
their first ballot and others who may
not be acquainted with he new cleo
tion law, few suggestions may not
be amlss. You viii find on the bal
lot this year at the head ofsthe re-
publican ticket the republican party
emblem, an eagle with out-streached
wings, and at the head of the demo
cratic ticket the democratic party
emblem, q rooster. Under each of
these emblems Is circle. If you
desire to vote the whole republican
ticket without exception, you may
do SO by simply making cross in
the circle under the eagle, likewise,
If you wish to vote the whole demo
cratic ticket, don't do it thoulgh)
place your cross in the circle under
the rooster. That Is all yon need.
do, and you may then cast your bal
lot. Ii you put the cross in the cir
Gle under the eagle the ballot will
be good one. 4
If, however, being republican
you desire to.vote for any democrat,
or, a democrat, and desire to vote
x
for any one republican or more, put
your cross in the circle under your
party emblem; run your pencil
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1904-11-04

through the name of the republican
or democrat you do not desire to
vote for as the case may be and put
a cross opposite the name of the per-
son you desire to substitute on the
other ticket for your party's nomi-
nee.
All democrats who desire to vote
their national and county tickets and
wish to vote the republican state
ticket should place cross under
their party's emblem, the rooster
and run their pen through the names
of all democratic state nominees and
place crosses opposite the names of
all republican state nominees.
Read these suggestions two or
three times and you will then make
no mistakes which will invalidate
your ballot.
