Voting by Mail In the Ninth

out of the heated contest in the Ninth
~ Virginia District has come a situation
unique in the history of election laws. II is
no less than Il challenge of the workings of
the absent voters law. which provides for
casting ballots by mail, and it comes from G.
Il. McCorkle attorney for the Common
wealth for the County of Wise. Whether It
Is part of possible contest proceedings, time
will develop.
Mr.. McCorkle applied TO the registrars of
Appalachia and Stoncga Precincts, in Wise
county. for permission to examine tho
applications for ballots TO be voted by mail.
Ii was refused, whcreupon Mr.. McCorkle APP
piled 10 Judge Skcen. OF the Wise circuit.

animation 10 he conducted. The judge de-
MED the application, and the Common
wealth's attorney announces that he will APP
peal TO the Supreme Court. but. since such
appeal cannot he decided or considered prior
TO tomorrow's election, he appeals TO the
court of public opinion for a verdict
The absent voters law was passed at tho
instance of the organizations Of travelling
mon. to enable them to vote without the
financial and other sacrifices formerly en-
tailed. II has been amended, and to all
appearances, is provided with every con-
ccivable safeguard The ballot. when re-

sealed and mailed without being carried
away, and accompanied by a description OF
tho voter made by the postmaster. In most
precincts, especially in rural communities
like those in the Ninth District. all voters,
with their probable whereabouts. their per-
sonal appearance and even their handwrit-
ing, are known to the registrars and the
judges of election. The opportunities for
fraud would seem to be at a minimum In
any event. the number of voters by mail
is usually negligible.
IN all probability no one will object TO a
final decision on this question, in due time,
by the appellate court For the moment.
Mr.. McCorklc's advertisement looks a little
like theatrical gesture, and may he attrih-
uted TO the intensity of feeling engendered
by "a heated political fight.

nc means implies that he is not as shrewd a
political as an economic observer OF de-
velopments affecting our national life.
In this connection. he voices the follow
ing significant observation: 81 see one inter-
esting issue in the congressional elections,
namely. the number OF new radical mem
hers sent to Congress. Those OF us in the
East do not understand the viewpoint OF our
Western people; hence, few are awake to
the great change which is coming about In
our political lineup. Throughout the pres
cnt generation. the contest has been between
the Republicans and Democrats The days
OF this alignment, however, are numbered
both OF the old parties have suffered ex-
tcnsire changes. At least, by 1928. and per-
haps In 1924, real contest may be waged
between the so-called conservatives on the
me side. and the so-called radicals on the
other
On the basis OF this appraisement OF in
hucnccs at work making toward a new po-
litical alignment Mr.. Babson counsels the
sound course of philosophy that should be
applied In all business Undertakings, and
particularly with respect to investments In
the securities market. Deploring the grow
ing tendency Of all classes Of the people,
whether engaged in small or large busi-
ness. to look to Washington for favors and
OF the consequent widespread lobbying be-
.i"ic congress III thal Denal1, he warns that
any growth founded upon so tickle n basis
as government favor must he precarious.
The industries and the individual COM
panies which are really good Investments"
nc says. will be able to fight their way
through without having to depend upon
cyEbitant tarirs or government capital
lhey must havo hard shedding for while
but when the depression Is over they will
control tho field. While others are build
lag up influence at Washington they are
building organizations at home. At the
time ii may seem IL the concerns which
ect the most protection or assistance from
Washington are the winners, but their adj
vantage Is only temporary Instead OF try
ing to pick the companies which get the
most assistance from the government, In
vestorS should look for the companies which
get along with the least.
III they would take Il so. there Is both
political and business wisdom. IL properly
