PREFERENTIAL VOTING
AND HOW IT WORKS
By Reginald Mott Hull, Caln-
bridge, Massachusetts,.

For the further elucidatlOn Of
Mr.. Hull's paper its discussion. at
the hands Of the members IS here
with given.
LIEUTENANT SHAW: (Mr. Dana
in the chair): Will Mr. Hull kind
" inform me if, in considering
what kind of ballot to adopt, the
method of rejecting any because
it was too complicated was con
sidered?
MR.. HULL: We felt that the
Grand Junction system combined
in the best way simplicity cf bal
lot, ease of understanding, and
simplicity of computation by the
election officers.
LIEUTENANT SHAW: If the mix
ell population of johannesburg
| and Pretoria has very successful.
ly worked the Hare Spence sys-
TEN. why could not Cambridge
do so?
MIR. HULL; Perhaps 1t could.
The Hare. Spence system however
drops the lowest man In the
Grand junction system, ever,
body stands equally all the way
through.
LIEUTENANT SHAW: What is
the method of nomination in
Spokane? How many names are
requireds
Mr.. HULL: Twenty-Five names
Ninety five men we're nominated IN
Spokane; three dropped out before
the election by declining to accept
denominations.
DIR HART: In ordinary elec
tions the children at light are
sometimes successful by the eli
miuation Of the children OF the
world; in other words. they get il
by the splitting of the predomi
nant party. Now, in this matter
| it seems to me that the children
of the world could elect either ont
of their candidates against tb'
children OF light.
Mr.. HULL: That may be, bn

ton in the establishment of a county

meet in the near future and discuss
the advisability of publishing a school
journal in this county.
On, Friday afternoon Miss Mary
Lennon, county tomato club organ
izer. discussed with the teachers in
a general way the tomato club work
in the county. Miss Edith Parrot,
State agent of tomato clubs, was un-
able to be present to lead in this dis
cussion, as had been planned, but Miss
Lennon took her place in a very ef-
hcient manner.
County Farm Demonstration J.
Frank Williams told of the work Of
the boys corn clubs in the county
and of the plans for school demon
stration farms which would be con.
Quoted in connection with several of
the schools. His talk proved an espe-
nj q
the schools in the county are prepar-
ing to have the demonstration farm
conducted in connection with their
schools
Miss T.. W. Mclean led in a gen
eral discussion Of reading in the pri-
mary grades and other problems in
the primary department Of the
school.
1t was decided to discuss the County
Field Day at the first meeting of the
County Teachers Association, which
will be held sometime in December.
The Teachers Conference has been
fraught with interest for the county
teachers and practically every teacher
has been present at some or all Cf
the meetings. The attendance was
very gratifying to those in charge of
the conference and much enthusiasm
was shown by the teachers in the
work Of the conference. Besides
teachers many of the trustees and pa
irons attended the meetings. It is
thought that much good will be ac-
cOmplished by the meeting, especially
in the drawing of the teachers into
closer relation with each other in
their daily work.

MULE TRADING MORE

THE PRICES, HOWEVER, REMAIN

Buyers Here From Many Southern
Cities and a Few Northern Pur-

Mondays Daily.)

AS is always the case mules We're
the ruling commodity in Columbia on
the first Monday, and they came from
many adjoining counties, and many
from even greater distances.
The sales started earlier than usu-
al, many transfers having been made
before the principal portion OF the
crowd gathered in the morning. The
stock showed up better than it did a
month ago, although the prices pre-
vailing were about the same as at
that time. The range was from STD
to 1926 for the good size fat stock.
There were larger number OF buy
ers than has been for several months.
The majority of these came from the
more Southernmarkets Dawson, Ca,
Atlanta, Montgomery, Admission, De-
catur, Hartselle, Birmingham, Clarks-
dale, Miss, and numbers OF other
places being represented. There were
also several buyers from the more
northern cities, and Tennessee al

ways sends her quota of dealers for
the first Monday mules in Columbia.
Before noon the trading while not
spirited was more active than for
some time, and some of the buyers
left the square and won't to the inter-
section of the Hampshire and Mt
Pleasant pixies, in order to get the
first chance at the large number Of
mules that come to Columbia that
way.
The farmers of this section have
had a fine fall for getting their mules
in good condition, and the appear
ance of the offerings shows that they
have taken advantage of the opportu-
nifty.
It is expected that the mule trade
