In Baltimore city the sewer rentals
will lead the city measures, followed
by the 50, 600, 600 bridge loan and the
81, 600, 600 conduit loan.
The Republicans, Democrats, Pro-
gressives aid Prohibitionist will oc-
cupy the first column, the Socialists,
Laborites and the blank space in
which voter may write ticket of
his own selection and which is re-
quir I'd by law in the second column.
In the third will appear the names
of the congressional candidates and
the loans. The former will be placed
in alphabetical order, while the loans
are arranged in the order of their
adoption, the sewer rental coming
first, the bridge loan second and the
conduit last.
The ballot will be fifteen inches
long and fourteen inches wide. II
will be comparatively easy to handle,
being very much smaller than any
voted in recent years. All the bal
lots will be uniform. There will be
nothing savoring of trickery. AL
parties are to be given a square deal.
In the Wilson counties the name
of the presidential candidates must
appear on the ballot in alphabetical
order. That of Chain, the Prohi
bitionist, is first, then in regular or
der come the Socialist, Labor, Pro
gressives, Republican and Democratic
candidates. 1t is thought that in
these counties the first four will, as
in Baltimore, occupy the first column
throwing the Republican AMI Demo
Gratis in the second. If this is doAe
then the name of Taft will appear al
the head of the second column;
position second in Importance to tina
in the first column.
Before the election the voters will
be impressed with che Importance oil
keeping away from the electors. Il
they try to split the ticket they MAJ
spoil it besides there is no sense il
selecting electors who represent
different parties. One crossmark il
the square opposite the name Of the
presidential candidate carries with il
all Of the eight electors. Only five
marks are required to vote the entire
ticket in Baltimore city They are
one for President, one for the Con
gresham and three for the loans. Il
will be easy enough to vote this
time. The voter need heed only ths
admonition not to vote for electors
and his ballot will be counted.
