WANT MORE VOTING MACHINES

Asbury Park once more shows
her progressiveness in deciding to
have the entire city equipped with
voting machines. 1t seems that
three of the districts in that city
have been using the machines ever
since their first installation. The
people have refused to give them up.
At the last meeting of the council
there. a motion was passed that the
city clerk be authorized to make d
requisition on the secretary of state
for two more voting machines, in
order that the whole city may be
equipped alike.
Voting machines never have been
popular with political bosses. At
the very outset they were installed
in such a manner as to cause the
people to be dissatisfied. After being
used In a district only once they
were removed to another district.
The device being new the people had
no opportunity to get familiar with
1t and consequently considerable
dissatisfaction arose. This seems to
have been what the politicians want
ed. They, at once, started the
agitation to have the machines abol-
ished and so far succeeded as to
have a law passed whereby the dis
tricts using the machines could vote
to have them abolished if the people
SO desired. Every effort was then
made to have the machines retired
as rapidly as possible.
1t is to be hoped that a reaction
has set in. The voting machine is
DSihS ~ mOIC anu nOIG RSH-
orally throughout the country.
When in perfect working order and
properly adjusted it is absolutely re-
liable and its accuracy can be de-
pended upon as much as the count
ing machines used in all the bank
ing institutions.
We have always believed that
once the people got familiar with
these voting machines they would
not do without them. They do away
with the corruptions and numerous
mistakes made under the present
system of voting and give the re-
turns promptly after the polls arc
closed.
AsbuTy Park Is to DO congratulate
ed or the stand 1t has taken In this
matter. 1t has set a worthy exam
pie. 1t means that the tide is turn.
Ing and that the entire state will
eventually be equipped with thess
modern appliances.
