WHY A MAN LIKES A DOG

"Why does man like a dog?'
responded the suffragette lady.
fercely, and repeated: "Why
does man like dog? Well there
are numerous reasons, though a
dog is not a reasoning being. A
dog will lick the hand that beats
it; a dog will eat crust and a
bone and bless the giver; a dog
THINKS whatever a man does is
right and proper; a dog has no
rights that a man is bound to re-
spect; a dog asks no EN- DarrasSing
questions; dog is always CRATE.
full, no matter for what; a dog
does not ask the man to stay at
home nights; a dog is satisfied to
love the man, whether the m, n
loves the dog or not; a dog sub
mits 10 any and all impositions
without protest; a dog does not
consider itself mans equal;
a dog lets man have his own
way; a dog doesn want to vote;
a dog is just as glad to see a man
when he gets in at 3 o'clock in
the morning, almost helpless, as
if he hadn't gone out at all; a
dog has no mother in sight and
a dog can't talk back Can't talk
blck, mind you, nor won't talk
back. That is why a man likes
a dog"

By this time-date of your

to get my breath and stretch my

so doggone impolite as not to pay
any attention at all you had
probably consigned me to the
hot place and gone ahead on
your own power. Then 1 felt

real nice apology. This isn't it.

ballot of that party with which
they declare their affiliation.
This will leave the selection of
the nominees open to some abuse
because under it a Republican
elector might declare his affilia
ton with the Democratic party,
receive a Democratic ballot and
then vote fol- the weakest car didate
on the ticket. By concerted
action on the part of any great
number of members either the
one or the other party, the weak
est candidates of either the one
or the other party might thereby
be selected. but from the careful
reading of the entire law / see no
way that this matter can be
regulated or controlled unless it i !
left to the discretion and good
Judgment of the judgment of the
judges and / doubt then whether
they would have the power to
refuse a man a ballot on the
simple grounds that they did not
believe he affiliated with the
party indicated by his declaration.
l do not think that it was the
intention of the Legislature that
there should be any blank space
left on the ballot for the writing
of names. My belief in this view
is somewhat borne out by the
latter part Of Section II of the
act, which provides as follows:
The ballot shall be printed so
as to give each elector clear
opportunity to designate his choice
of candidates for nomination by
making with the stencil cross
in the square after the name of
each candidate for whom he
wishes to vote for nomination.
1T my construction of this
section is correct that is that the
choice of the elector shall only
be designated in the manner pro-
vided in Section "a. then the
officers of the election would not
be authorized to count as a valid
vote for any person, whether for
one party or the other. a name
written on the ballot with pencil
or with pen and Ink, as far as
that is concerned.
1t is claimed by parties posted
in the law that when a voter cas-,
his ballot at 1912 election for
Wilson will not be allowed a Re.
publican ballot or one who voted
for Taft will not be allowed demo-
cratic ballot. The same rule
would of course apply to the
Progressives.

TIE attorney generals Office
at Frankfort gives out the
opinion that Independents are
barred from voting in the State
primary election to be held
Aug. and. 19I3. Assistant at
torney general Morris says: I'm
the first place the Primary Election
law is designated for the sole
purpose OF nominating candidates
of the dominant parties Any
party to participate in the primaru
must have cast at the last pre-
ceding pres Idental election 20
per cent OF the votes in the entire
state aud such parties are re-
quired to make their nomination
in the primary.
This act does not repeal the
provisions of the old law which
provided for nominations by
petitions or by conventions for
the political parties not included
in the provisions of the recent
act.
Independent voters sho uld not
have right, nor are they author
lied by law, to vote in the
primary elections. independent
and other political parties would
have a perfect right to meet in
convention or to take the sense OF
the independent voters in any
way they please and they thereby
might indorse the nominees of
the regular party. The other
than Democratic, Republican and
Progressive parties, are not
restricted by this law to any
particular method of making their
nominations, nor are they limited
to any particular time.
Under section 10 it viii be
clearly seen that in cities where
registration is required a person
who is registered as Democrat
would, not be entitled to and
should not receive from the clerk
other than a Democratic ballot;
likewise person registered as a
Republican would not be entitled
to and should not receive other
than a Republican ballot. In the

ton is not required this matter
