corralled peasants with Cossacks and
then had them beaten with the SOL

pursued the system adopted by Prince
John Obolensky, former governor-gen-

agrarian riots in the vicinity of Khar-

Prince Obolensky caused the peas

Many Rejected Votes.
At the last Presidential election there
were rejected In this city alone 20 per
cent of the ballots cast. and of these
nearly 80 per cent were marked by
whites In the tenth ward. commonly
known as Limerick. because ;ne bulk OF
residents are Irish, over 200 ballots were
rejected while in the seventeenth, where
the colOrcd voters exceed the whites,
only 200 were thrown OUI The Tenth Is
the Democratic stronghold and the Sew
enteenth heavily Republican. The same
proportion was maintained at the last
election. In all sections of the city in
which there was a large colored con-
stituency the losses were comparatively
less than where the whites predomin-
ated. The Democrats in the city claim
that 20 per cent of the ballots thrown
out were cast by members of their own
party, and with a simple form of ball
lot they could have swept the town.
Mr. Rasin, the Democrats leader, says
ne has enough Of this sort of thing. II

but he prefers the emblem, whereby one
mark will carry all the candidates Of

times TO vote for its return. They say
they are willing 10 take chances in this

and says he is opposed to the emblem
because IL is not conducive TO Intelligent
voting. He claims it will benefit only the
! parties and does not encourage independ-
ent voting He is ready. he says, TO favor
a different form and to consider the in
/ tent OF the voter. but believes return
to the embelm is a step backward. In
this he has the support OF the lower
counties, which. If anything. want the
1 ballot even more intricate than it now
is To this the governor pledged himself
prior to the election. agreeing to de-
prive the voters of the sample ballot.
But hers agin objection Is raised by the
| Wilson law counties, which say this
would put iliiterate whites on the foot

They want 10 disfranchise the latter,
but ask the law be so framed as to let
the whites come in.
So diversified are the opinions on this
ballot problem that unless the Repubi-
cans vote as a unit and get enough
Democrats to help them II VIII be diff

vaneed by the advocates of the emblem
is that If an educational test IS desired

maintain that with the emblem the In
