sand athletes will parade before the
kaiser on June on the occasion of the
dedication of the Stadium now being
constructed in the Grunewald race
course, outside Berlin, for the Olym-
pie games of 1916. From this body
Germany hopes to train team of
"world-beating" athletes.
Twenty thousand competitors will be
sent by lending athletic organizations
and 10000 will he recruited from

each organization will do homage as
they pass the imperial box, and will
finally sing the national anthem in
unison.
By borrowing the best features of
the American training methods, and
with the aid of a gorgeous government
subsidy the German athletes count on
being able to make themselves irresist-
ible by 1916. University athletes will

acceptable, and still others quite unde-
sirable, the voter win place a cross af-
ter all the other acceptable men in the
third column. This means that he not
only has the opportunity to vote for all
the good men, but also thus against
all the undesirable ones.
If some candidate polls majority of
all the votes in the first column, he is
elected. Failing that, the first and
second choice votes are added together.
The candidate, now highest, wins, if he
has n majority. If no man can com
mand a majority of the firsts and Sec
onds, meaning that there are a number
Of nearly equally desirable candidates,
the choices in the third column are
now added in. The highest man then
wins whether he has majority or not
for he is the man on the list behind
whom the greatest number of voters
are found to have gathered after each
has specified all whom he cares to sup
port.
This will always result in a majority
selection unless the list of candidates
happens to contain no one on whom the
majority can freely and automatically
unite-a condition clearly not due to
the system of voting.
Under eur present system the voter
can vote for but one man whatever the
number of good or bad candidates, and
the chances are that the undesirable
man will win, because the machine can
prevent the scattering of its vote
among lot of nominees whereas, if
the citizens had real opportunity for
free expression a large majority might
have gotten together behind some indie
pendent candidate. For instance, one
man was elected mayor of Massachu-
setts city about year ago by 1900
votes out of 1900; the $500 other votes
being divided nearly equally among
four other candidates. The primary
partisan system to prevent such mis-.
haps has to choke off, in the interest
of harmony, desirable candidates, in or.
der not to risk a party defeat through
split ticket. Then the irony of it is
that after the citizen has been deprived
of the opportunity of voting for any
but the machine candidates, blame for
the failure of the present system is at
tributed to the fact that some abstain
from voting in the final election.
Elected on Reputation.
The present system necessitates the
expenditure of large sums of money
and great deal of time and energy
to be nominated or elected. Under the
preferential system no money or time
need be expended in campaigns. A man
can be elected on his reputation as is
shown by the fact that the president of
the chamber of commerce was elected
to the Spokane city council during his
absence from the city.
The result of the first election in
Grand Junction, November ., 1909, is
given below:
The Hawaiian gazette., 1913-02-04

The starred men were the anti-char.
ter and minority candidates. the others
the pro-charter and majority candi-
dates.
Omitting reference to an unessential
detail in the Grand Junction practise,
that of dropping the low man IA
complication not likely to be widely
adopted, and without influence on this
result-the decision was drawn from
the foregoing figures, according to the
principles above stated, as follows:
There being no majority in first
choice, the frsts and seconds were add
ed together. Then the leading candi-
date, Bannister, provided he had mad
majority, would have won.
There being no majority by combined
firsts and seconds, the first, second and
other choices were added together, and
Todd, the candidate, then leading, won.
Under the usual system the minority
would have beaten the majority and
elected Bannister.
Under the Dies Moines Los Angeles OF
Seattle plan, that of second elections
there would have resulted bitter con
test between Aupperle and Bannister
neither of whom had majority of the
people behind them.
