Public School houses, and is gener-
ally in line with mainland legisla-
ton on the same subject. The
theory of the thing is that the flag
presents a constant object lesson
in patriotism to the scholars, and
patriotism is one of the things that
the school teacher tries to inculcate.
The habit is to have the flag
flying when school is open, the
scholars themselves raising it with
some appropriate form of exer-
else. Then, when school is dismiss
ed, the flag is lowered and goes
into retirement with the close OF
the days work.
The flag idea has been found to
work wonderfully we'll on the
mainland, where most of the chill
dren are of American blood as
we'll as of American birth, and il
is argued that it should work
even better here, where the chill.
dren are of more diverse races
and where the need for the i'm
pressive lessons of patriotism il
therefore greater.

ILLICIT SELLING DECREASES.

HONOLULU, Aug. 1. Since
the new law went into effect
81 retail liquor licenses have
been issued on the Island of Oahu
alone. A peculiar feature of the
laws operations is the taking out
OF such licenses by firms like H.
Hackfeld & Company which are
now in a position to sell drinks at
bar if they want to. They do
not do so, but need the retail
license in order to be abls to fill
small orders.
There have been IS third-class
licenses, 49 fifth-class and 12S
fourth-class issued under the new
law, representing a revenue OF
$87, 400 for the Territory. This
year some of this is counterbalanc-
ed by advance payments on old
licenses, which are deducted when
new licenses are paid for.
The third-class licenses are foi

The first important duty of every citizen OF Rhode Island a the
election now near at hand is to vote, and the second to see that he so
marks his ballot that it will be effective as to every candidate he de-
sires to support, and will not be thrown out as defective by the re-
turning board as were nearly one-hfth of the votes cast in the first
district last year. In April last the general assembly,
ostensiby to simplify the method of marking ballots and thus reduce
the number of detectives, made radical changes in the law, and as
these changes will be operative for the first time at the coming
November election, it is essential that every voter should tamilarize
himself with them before going to the polls.
Under the new system the names of all the candidates of each
party will be printed in regular order under the party symbol and
name. These symbols will be an eagle for Republicans, a star for
Democrats and a fountain for Prohibidonists. Immediately under
these symbols will be found a circle and by putting a cross within it
the citizen can vote a straight party ticket. This provision of the law
is easily understood and it is one that ought to tend to decrease the
number of defective ballots.
In this state, and in Providence particularly, there are thousands
of citizens who seldom, if ever, vote a straight ticket. They are
mining factor in elections. In framing the new ballot law it appears
bly, to discourage this large and influential class of voters by imposing
upon them conditions wholly unnecessary and calculated to render
voting by them as complicated and difficult as possible.
If citizen of independent political thought and action wishes to
vote for a majority but not all the candidates of any party he may
put a cross in the circle and must then draw a line through the names
of those he does not desire to support. If in some other party column
he finds the names Of candidates for the Offices he has previously
marked out who are satisfactory to him he can vote for them by put
ting a cross in the squares to the right of their names. In the event
that none of the candidates whose names are printed on the ballot
meet his approval he can write in the names Of other me in the
spaces prepared for that purpose and by marking a cross to the right
make his ballot effective as to them.
1t will be seen, then, that the independent voter must be par
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1905-10-31

ticularly careful under this new ballot law, especially if he employs
the cross in the circle at the top of a party column. If he does not do
this he can make his vote effective by marking his ballot in the same
manner as under the old system-tha is, by putting a cross opposite
the name of one candidate for each office Fer whom he desires to vote
or by writing the name of a candidate when none OF those printed on
the ballot r acceptable to him.
If the legislators, when they framed the ballot law, had really
desired to simplify and facilitate voting, they would not have i'm
posed so many intricate, complicated and unnecessary conditions
upon the citizen who votes independently For example, if he marked
a cross in the circle and wen. to another party column and put a cross
beside the name of a candidate whom he wished to support, that
would be a plain and definite indication of his preference. If he wrote
in a name in the blank space provided, and put a cross beside it, that,
too, ought to be ample and distinct evidence of his intention.
But the partisan spirit that ruled the last legislature decreed
otherwise, seemingly with hope of gaining advantage by the obstacles
it placed in the way of independent voting. There is good reason to
believe it has underestimate the intelligence of the independent cleo
torate. The citizen who votes for those he considers the most COM
petent and trustworthy among the candidates presented, whatever
party label they may bear, is pretty certain to study the voting laws
SO carefully that he will not be DISTINGUISHED through quirks cum
nngly and designedly inserted in it.
HOW TO VOTE THE NEW BALLOT.
To vote a split ticket without trouble ignore circle at top and
vote Is under old system for one man for each Office
To vote a straight ticket place a cross in the circle under the
symbol of the party you wish to support.
Having placed the cross in the circle it is possible to vote for
others outside the column by scratching out the name of the candi-
date you wish ignored and placing a cross in the space to the right OF
the man favored if his name appears on the ballot.
Should the name not appear, it may be written in under the title
Of the office in the blank column. "
1t is necessary to strike out the name in the corresponding space
in the straight column and cross the new name also to make the
ballot effective.
