Seventy-three OF the ninety county clerks

quest for detailed inform alton as to the
cost OF holding the late primary for the
nomination Of county and state officers. The
tabulation Is not, perhaps, as exact as it
should he, owing TO the fact that some OF
the county clerks were unable to furnish
all the information called for. The failure
Of seventeen counties to make any report
whatever also prevents any finality of
conclusion as to cost. but the table shows
enough to interest students. The first
thing that will impress the reader is that
the vote cast was comparatively light. This

ton was the same as II the entire z75,00o
voters OF Nebraska had participated in
the election instead OF One-third Of thai
number. and made the cost per vote cast
n cents.
The greatest single item in the expense
10 that for the pay Of election officers.
This figure varies widely among the coun.
ties, but It totals up for the state about
five-elevenths OF the entire amount ex-
pended OF the primary. Printing OF bal
lots comes next In the bill and calls for
about One-fifth OF the total. In this coll
umn It will be noticed that Douglas county
is set down for a figure that seems ex-
cessive In comparison with the others.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-10-13

Douglas is asked to pay $3.50 for ballots
used at a primary election where only
S,SSs votes were cast. But the county CLERK
had to make preparation for the possibility
of 5000 votes being recorded, and sample.
a well as official ballots. had to be pro.
Vided- The Douglas county ballot. also,
was perhaps the biggest Of any used in the
state. Delivery and collection Of poll
books. cost Of poll books and supplies,
and rent for polling places are the
other items. In many Of the coun-
ties these expenditures were not separated
as suggested for the purpose OF tabulation.
but are Jumped with other items. The
table is complete enough. however. to give
a very clear outline as to what expense to
the taxpayer is involved in the matter of
