Regular Meeting of Governor and
Council, Friday, Feb. 9, at 10 A. M.

The question of whether names upon
nomination papers, which are followed
by ditto marks, instead of the name of
the town IN which the petitioner re-
sides, shall be counted or not has been
freely discussed since nomination pa
pers have begun to be filed for vari-
Gus candidates. Secretary Of State
Davis contends that such names should
be counted and has made his ruling
upon the matter quite plain in a letter

follows:

over the telephone, last week relative
to the value and significance of ditto
marks where used on Primary nominal
ton papers instead of the signer writ
ing the name of the town in full. the
value of ditto" or ditto marks seems
to have been we'll established by the
supreme court of Maine. | find by ref
erence 10 Volume 20 of the Maine Re
ports. page So. in answering ques-
tons submitted by Governor Gareelon
the court mas this to say:
If the ditto marks or dots are
placed under the figures or words of
the first candidates votes the return
should be counted Where il appears
by the letters or figures in the first
line and by ditto marks or dots in the
following lines, that the same class of
candidates received the same votes,
there can be no ground for rejection
The word ditto and its abbreViation
(do) and the dots or marks that stand
for the word ditto are of common use,
and have a perfectly well defined
meaning. known TO persons generally
That meaning should not be disregard
Ell. We answer the question in the
affirmative.
There seems 10 he no doubt from the
above that it is a perfectly proper and
legitimate transaction for the signer
OF a nomination paper TO ditto the
name of the town, instead of writing
the name in full tof course the town
dittoed being the same town in which
he resides.1

New Ruling For Homesteaders
and so cents

BY reversing itself and declaring

For years 1t has been understood
that the general land Office adhered
to the practice of forcing a home
steader to reside on his claim perso-

family did or not. Several rulings
to this effect have been made, and
although some settlers were willing
to take chances, the wise ones fol-
lowed regulations.

office ruled against him. but Com

established his family on the claim
and visits them when he can.
The new ruling will be of great
benefit to homesteaders. and is due
to the efforts Of Congressman Mar

for more equitable ruling in such
land cases. Lewistown Daily News.
