MYSTIC WING

How and when are town representa-
tives duly elected this year under the
changed law, in case of prolonged con.
tests? II has been supposed that in case
of divided field and no choice by ma
jorty on three successive ballots, the
candidate receiving the most votes on the
fourth ballot would be declared elected.
But this is not so clear when the law
enacted two years go is studied. Here
it Isl
"At three O'Clock in the afternoon ou
the day Of a general election, the votes
given for Representative shall be counted
by such of the board of civil authority as
are present. assisted by the assistant
clerks and ballot clerks: and, if no person
has majority of The votes given the pre-
siding officer shall so inform the freemen
and another balloting shall be had, a rea-
sonable time only being given for receiv-
ing and counting the votes; and ballot
ing shall be continued until an election
is made, provided that after third bal
lot the person first receiving the largest
number of votes shall be declared
elected"
The old law was changed by striking
out the former provision requiring that
the successful candidate must finally re-
ceive majority and adding the words.
provided that after third ballot the
person first receiving the largest number
of votes shall be declared elected"
Whatever the general assembly meant,
it did not make it's meaning clear. These
questions arise:-
1. Is the person who receives the most
votes ON the fourth ballot elected?
2. After three ballots and no major
ity, is the person who received the most
votes on the first ballot, or if there was
tie then on the second, or if then on the
third, elected without farther balloUng?
2. Is the peculiar wording of the
clause meant merely to cover the posi-
bility of tie vote on ballots after the
third, requiring that balloting shall con-
tinue thereafter until some person re-
ceives more votes than anyone else?
There is bound to be a great deal of
misunderstanding which might have been
avoided by more attention in framing the
act. Safe to say the next body will be |
laced by many contests on this point and |
will have to reenact the law with retro
active effect,-Randolph Herald.

The Evolution of the Golden
Rule

The mighty civilizations of the past
are shattered wrecks upon the shores of
history and their ruins are the relics of
museums. The ghosts of selfish conquer
ors haunt the battle6elds where armies
were driven to slaughter that kings
might clothe themselves in scarlet and
queens might ravish in revenge. The
fantastic and horrible religions OF the
ancients exalted men until they ruled su-
prostitution from the stars and nations
trerrbled through the ages of nightmare.
Every divine right of man must be de-
stroyed, every sacred crocodile smashed,
and all the mummery that makes man
worship man must be dissolved in the
furnace of education. Vanity, ambition
and gluttony cannot thrive much longer
upon ignorance and oppression. Kings
viii not much longer survive in any
shape and the sword of war must be
carried by a philanthropist. Charity
will rule the races from its throne of Love
and the Golden Rule viii be the constitu-
ton Of the world, or all the achievements
81 time are vaip.
