The second choice feature of the
Bryan election law is almost perfect,
but it could not provide for a case
where, there being only three can
didates, two of them form a combine
against the third. In case of this
kind, if the friends of the third man
believe that such a combination eX-
lists, nobody can blame them for
"single shotting." If there is such
a combination, it is in the case of
the race for q county office. No State
office is affected in this way, and
particularly in the races for Gov
ernor and United States Senator, the
man who does not vote a second
choice is foolishly throwing away a
