Semi-weekly herald., 1912-08-29

II you are affiliated with the Republican party
you can vote the Republican ticket in the prima-
ries.
Your vote in the primaries does not necessarily
mean that you will cast your ballot for every Re
publican on the ticket at the election.
You can scratch your ticket on election day
in November and vote you please-just as you
have always done-and it will have nothing to do
with your vote at the primary in September
The matter of presidential electors occupies no
part or place in the primary to be held over the
state on Tuesday September 10th. The names
of neither Democratic nor Republican presidential
electors-or those of any party-will be voted for
or occupy place on the primary ballot on Sep
tember 10th-electors will appear only on the
November election ballot
Thus to make it plain, the matter OF presiden
tial electors has nothing to do with the primaries
in September and the primaries have nothing to
do with the electoral question or electoral candi-
dates.
This much Is positively settled by the new pri-
mary law
Let US employ an illustration to make plain
the proceeding for every voter who goes to the
primaries to vote Tuesday. September 10TH
He enters the polling place. The judges oil
election hand him two ballots fastened together
One of these ballots contains the list OF cand-
dates seeking nomination before the Democrats
of the state-the ether Is a Republican ballot
containing the names of those nominated by the
assembly and by petition. seeking nomination at
the hands of the Republicans of the state.
The voter Is handed two ballots 30 that he may
preserve the secrecy of his ballot No one is
supposed to know which he votes-but he
can use only of them.
The voter enters the booth If he is affiliated
with the Republican party he takes the Republi-
can ballot, votes for the ones he desires to nomi
nate, folds up both ballots and walks out of the
booth.
He then hands the ballot he has marked-the
Republican ballot-to of the judges of cleo
ton and it is placed in box for marked bal.
lots The other ballot-the Democratic ballot
given him. which he did not mark, is placed in
a receptacle for blank ballots.
The purpose of this is to avoid the voters ask
Semi-weekly herald., 1912-08-29

Ing either for Democratic or Republican bal
lot. thereby making public his preference and
nullifying the intent Of the law, which is to pre-
serve the secrecy OF the ballot
The law as construed by able lawyers gives
the word party affation" wide range. II
you have usually voted Republican ticket or
been regarded as . Republican In the vicinity in
which you hve you have been affiliated with
the Republican party.
The fact that you have scratched the Republ,-
can ticket in the past does not mean that you are
not affiliated with that party-or that you are
going to scratch your ticket in the November
election, following the primary does not mean
that you not affiliated" with the Repub
can party.
Remember this THE QUESTION OF PRES
IDENTIAL ELECTORS is NOT INVOLVED IN
THE STATEWIDE PRIMARIES TO BE HELD
ON SEPTEMBER TENTH. The names of presi-
Dental electors will not appear on the primary
ballot.
The purpose and intent Of the primary law as
intended by the Legislature is: (a) to preserve
the secrecy Of the ballot (b) to prevent one
party from voting the ticket of the opposite party
and thereby nominating the weak candidates of
the opposite party in the expectation that they
will bo defeated at the general election
Under the provisions of the law therefore, you
vote but ticket. at the primary and this
year that ticket must be either Republican or
Democratic ticket. The law requires that party,
to appear on the primary ballot, must have cast
at least ton per cent OF the votes cast at the
preceding general election. This prohibition ex-
cludes all except the two parties mentioned from
participating in the primaries this year.
Keep this in mind: YOU MAY ONLY VOTE
A REPUBLICAN OR A DEMOCRATIC TICKET
AT THE COMING PRIMARIES.
You win be handed two tickets containing the
OF the candidates for nomination made
by the assemblies filed BY petition :or these
two parties.
In order that Democrats may not vote Repub
lican tickets Republicans vote Democrat.

By setting fire to the trestle near
heltown of Wirth, the bandits had
no krouble whatever in forcing the
traih to stop. Although the flames
threatened to destroy the trestle be-
fore their work was accomplished, the
robbers moved deliberately. Threat
ening the engineman and fireman with
revolvers, they ordered them from the
locomotive cab. J. A. Dolan, the trains
con(uctor, leaped from car and was
line6 up beside the engine crew. A
porzer also fell victim to his curios-
ity and was made to stand in line.
While one robber held the line of
emfloyes the others uncoupled the To-
co6otive, baggage and express car

Half a mile from the bridge the
bandits ordered a stop. Then the safe
was dynamited and ransacked. Their
work completed, the robbers fed to
the hills.
