ELECTION PROCLAMATION.

The governors election proclama-
ton for the general election, to
be held on November 3, appears on
page 3 of this issue Of The Demo-
crat. " IT, 1,
Certified copies Of the ballot for
the general election are being sent
out by the secretary of state today
and will be received by County Au-
ditor Chas. H. Bunker In day or
two. The list Of candidates is be-
ing sent out early this year so that
each county auditor will have time
to prepare for the election.
A number of changes have been
made in the placing of the party
ticket this fall. The parties will ap-
pear on the ballot as follows: Re-
publican, democratic, progressive, so
cialist, prohibition, independent and
non-partisan. Last year the arrange
ment was as follows: Republican,
democratic, prohibitionist, socialist
and progressive. IL
The voter who wishes to exercise
his full voting privilege will there.
fore not only mark his party ticket
according to his preference, but he
will go over to the non-partisan col
umn and there mark his choice of
candidates for judges, according to
the Information furnished by the
secretary Of state, who also says
"The press of the state will do the
people an important and valuable SER
vice by calling attention to the
change In the law. Every change
made in the manner Of; voting d. to
which the electors have become ac-
customed. no matter how simple, is
quite sure at first to cause confus-
ion, and this change, even at the best
is likely to result in the failure of
many to record their votes on the
judicial ticket ~ =
Candidates who wish to withdraw
and have their names cancelled may
do so as late as eight days before
the election, even though the list
of candidates will be cerHfied this
week. In case aany state candidates
decide not to make the race at the
last minute, each county officer will
be notified by the secretary of state.
