lingering death no other surgeon
dared attempt 1t.

The hunchback's eyes lit up.

The surgeon rose from the bedside.

PROGRESSIVE NUMBERING

The election April End, demonstrated
the fact that we had lot of black
smiths in the so-called progressive leg
islature year ago. They tinkered
with the voting system, making it SO
complicated, ard unreasonable in its
provisions, that It is now the most con-
fusing piece OF bungling that ever stood
between the voters expression of his
political choice and the ballot box.
So says ex Gov. Hoard in the Jeffer-
son County Union, and so say we; and
everybody is willing to say amen to it.
The printed ballot is the medium by
which the voter expresses his will at
the polls. 1t is obvious that it should
be made as simple and easily understood
as possible. Now these botch black
smith legislators at Madison, under the
rule and guidance of the state univer-
sity, which is trying to run Wisconsin
politics, have devised ballot so ride
ulously complicated that more than half
of the voters are unable to mark it in
diligently. That this is an absolute
fact was amply demonstrated at the
voting on the End interest. A simple,
plain ballot, requiring no complicated
system of marking, is the wise intelli-
gent course, and should be provided.
