HOW TOVOTE
SHOWN IN
ERECENT
DECISIONS
Questions Settled
By the Supreme
Court

1t may avoid confusion hereafter to
know what the Supreme Court has de-
cfded, in two recent cases constituting
the new election laws.
When a person desires to vote a
mixed ticket, he may do so by mark
ing a cross in the circular space above
the name Of the party for some of
whose candidates he desires to vote,
and then make cross mark before
the name of any candidate OF another
party for whom he may desire to
vote" The proper construction of
this clause OF the statute has given
rise to controversies. By making the
cross mark at the head of the ticket
the voter indicates his intention to
vote the entire ticket, but by passing
over and marking name in another
party column he declares an inten-
tion to vote for that candidate. There
is no trouble in counting a vote like
this when there Is only cne person to
be voted for, but where there are two
or more persons to be voted for and
the voter leaving his party column
votes for only one Of them, the trou-
BILE is to determine which one Of the
persons not marked is intended to be
voted for. Two cases have gone to
the Supreme Court and have been de-
cided in the last few days, one from
this county and one from Wood coun.
ty Three different Yie%S have been
taken by the lower courts.
First: That the voter by marking
the head OF the ticket and then mark
ing names on another ticket attempt
ed to vote for more persons than
there are candidates and the ballot
cannot be counted for any one. This
was the view taken by our county
court.
Second: That the names marked
by the cross opposite such names may
be counted, but that the names on
ihe ticket saRrkeA at the head cannot
be counted for the reason that it c.
not be told against whom the votes
on tne other ticket are directed ana
hence we do nut know for whom the
voter INTENDED 10 vote on ttat ticket.
and that part Of his vote is void for
uncertainty. This was Judge Mason's
view, following q similar case decided
by the Supreme Court of Iowa.
Third: That the name marked OH
the opposite ticket must be counted
and that the vOte,l will be presumed
to have yoied against the person
whose name is in the parallel column
directly opposite, and that the other
names on that ticket will be counted.
This was the view ta.rn oy the Woor
county officials, and is the view sus.
tanned by the Supreme Court. 1t was
the view taken by the election officers
conducting the elections in this coun-
ty.
Ia the Marion county case a voter
has marked the head of the ticket, In.
dicating that he intended to vote the
Republican ticket, but he passed over
and marked the names of William b.
Ice and NJ. ". MILAN, who were can
dldates for House of Delegates on the
Democratic tlcke. The county court
held the entire vote void for that OF.
fee. Ice asked for a mandamus re.
qulrng the vote to be oounted for him
and MILAN, Judge Mason decided that
the vote should be counted for Ice
