| There is a great demand among poll
ticians, officials of election and others
interested in the election for copies of
the election laws compiled and ammo
tated by Secretary Mott Smith. This
is pamphlet of forty-four pages, care
fully indexed, which contains all the
statute law, congressional and legisla-
tive, bearing on the subject of cleo
tions in this Territory. In addition,
every court decision by courts within
this Territory bearing in any way on
the subject is cited in connection with
the sections to which they relate, and,
in addition, much matter of informa
ton is included in the notes.
In the arrangement of the work the
provisions of the Organic Act bearing
on elections are given, arranged ac
cording to rational sequence of sub
ieets. Next are given the provisions
of the Revised Laws. These include
chapters six and eight. Then are given
the provisions of the County Act which
in any way relate to elections, and
following this the provisions of the
City and County Act on the same sub
ject.
To the preparation of this work Sec
rotary Mott-Smith gave great deal
of time and very careful and painstak
ing examination of every subject con-
nected with it.
The compilation was designed espe
cially to aid officers of election, and all
who have anything to do with cleo
tons, who have examined it, have
found it extremely convenient for ref |
erence and valuable as an authority.

WORK Of FRAMING
OFFICIAL BALLOT

Secretary Mott-Smith was engaged
yesterday in drafting the form of the
tickets to be used at the coming cleo
tions. The last Legislature made a
number of amendments to the election
law affecting the form of the ticket,
and the Supreme Court, in its decision
in the contested election case of Brown
against Iaukea, made, perhaps, more.
Secretary Mott-Smith s effort will be
to make the ticket in it's form conform
completely to the law as declared by
the Legislature and by the Supreme
Court, and at the same time be as
thoroughly and easily Ineligible to
the voter as can be. One of the fea-
lures of the ballot this year win be
that the line marking off the squares
within which the voter must put his
mark will be a very heavy one, max
ing the squares conspicuous. On the
ballot two years ago this line was not
very heavy, and the results indicated
that many voters, perhaps with defec-
tive eyesight, failed to notice the line
and did not always get their marks
within the required spaces.

TENEMENT BUILDERS
TEST ORDINANCE

An effort is being made to prevent

anese camp-builders, and the trial of
the case will be in the nature of a

Gently passed by the Board of Super
visors and intended to prevent the cree
ton of camps in certain districts or
within certain number of feet of a
schoolhouse. The case was continued
until today, when argument will be
