"Ten dayB prior to tho election tho
clerk of (ho district appoints two clerks
and two superintendents of election, and
furnishes them with blank rolls and en
velopes. Ilo must also post in sotno con

district tho names of all persons put in

names of candidates, with blank spaces
for recording tho votes cast for each.
After taking their oatha tho clerks and
superintendents appoint and swear In
thrco supervisors, tho duties of tlieso su
pervisors being to keep pcaco at tho polls.
"Tho first duty of tho supervisors is to
mcasuro, mark and ropo off in tho open
alrn spaco of fifty feet encircling tho
polls, and within this clrclo no person
not an officer of tho election is permitted
to come, except for tho purposo of vot
ing, and then only ono voter at u time.
Each voter, after casting his voto, is re
quired to rctiro beyond tho prescribed
limit. Wo uso no ballots or boxes, and
hence, of course, do not havo secret vot
ing. Tho voter steps up, names tho can
didates for whom ho wishes to voto, nnd
tho clerks, after reading his' name, tally
ono to tlio credit of each candidato
named. If tho voter asks to havo it
dono, ono of tho officers of tho election
must read off aloud tho names of all tho
candidates for tho various offices. Tho
eloction officers nro forbidden under pen
alty to seek to iuflucnco or bias voters. If
any H'non present hhnsolf as a voter
whom thoofllccrobuscct to bo not quali
fied they must chnllcngo his right, nnd ho
tins then und tliero an opportunity to bo
sworn nnd glvo testimony, and nlso to
offer other evidence. After both sides
havo been heard tho superintendent must
decide tho question, and n list must bo
kept of nil persona whoso votes nro chal
lenged and finally accepted, and also of
all who nro challenged and not permitted
to vote, with n statement showing tho
names of the candidates whom such
voter would havo voted for had ho been
given a chance.
'Wo havo lorfectcd order nt our elec
tions, tho supervisors having power to
uummou to their assistance us muny per
sons ns thoy mny require to prevent any
threatened breach of tho eneo. Thoy
must see thnt no Intoxicating llquorn nro

though tlilrt part of tho law given llttlo
trouble, for Intoxicating liquor nro not
trafficked In unywheru In our nation.
Our lauasevorely punish nil who attempt
fraudulent voting, or bribery, or Interfer
onco with tho voters, or tho conduct of
tho election, or tampering with tliu to
turns, or making of false entries on tho
rolls. If threo or tnoro persons conspire
to disturb or break up nn election, and
attempt to do so with deadly weajionH,
Ihoy nro deemed guilty of treason, nnd,
on conviction, nro nentenccd to death by
hanging,
"Wo have not a secret ballot," con
cluded the cx-chlef, "und I nni glnd wo
have not. 1 cannot understand why n
man should ho ashamed to cant nn open
vote. It Is tho secret ballot thnt gives
opHrtunltlcs for corrupt Ion nnd bribery,
and tliero Is no bribery among thoChcro
keen." Nenrly two hundred ballot boxes havo
been patented In the United Htntes pat
ent olllco. Only threo or four of theso
patented devices wero ovor brought into
actual use, Sotno of tlieso ballot boxes
aro intricato nnd delicate mechanisms,
whtlo others aro very simple Sotno nro
nn big as printing pressci, whllo others
look like rat traps. Among tho latter is
tho box known ns tho Now Jersey box,
from tho fact that tho Now Jersey legis
Inturo sotno tlmo ngonuthorizod tho pur
chase of several thousand of Its typo.
It is also used In Cincinnati nnd somo
other towns. Tho boxes cost $35 each,
but nro warranted suro death to ballot
box stuffing. Thoy aro about a foot and
a half squnrv, with sides of plato glass
protected by heavy wiro in such manner
that oven if tho glass is shattered tho
wires hold tho broken pieces in
place. There nro threo locks on tho
box, two of them combination and ono a
plain lock. Tho combinations nnd koy
nro divided nmong judges nnd clerks of
opposing political parties, tho mayor,
county judgo or other officials holding
both combinations und a dupltcato koy.
In uso tho voter hands his ballot to ono
of tho judges, who inserts It in tho

opening whllo another judgo turns tho
crank. As tho ballot disappears a bell
rings, and a printing mechanism marks
tho ballot with its number or other
dovico in red ink, and tho slip of
paper then falls into tho bottom of tho
box, where, with its predecessors, it is
plainly visible. If on tho count two bal
lots nro found folded togcthor.'or a ballot
not marked witlv tho red stamp, It is
thrown out as fraudulent, becauso tho
mechanism will mark but ono ticket at
a tlmo, and that, of course, tho outsido
ono. As originally destgnod, this ma
chlno wns intended to number tho ballots
consecutively, but that would not do for
tho reason that It destroys tho secrecy of
tho ballot, Inasmuch as comparison of
tho number of n ticket with tlio poll
sheet would reveal tho candidates for
whom any given voter had cast his prefer
ence. Nearly nil of tho patented ballot boxes,
or voting machines, ns tho patent offlco
calls them, iilni ut similar results. Tho
turning of a crunk, marking or number
ing of tho ballot, ringing of a gong and
detection of doublo voting nro features
common to tho vast majority of them.
Somo novel mechanical methods aro em
ployed, and in n fow tho mechanism
greatly resembles thnt of a town clock.
Clocks aro actually introduced in sovcral
machines, as in tho invention of T. R,
Hester, of Napa, Cal., whoso dovico calls
for an "auto-register signal tlmo lock"
on tho compartment containing tho bal
lots, and another similar tlmo look on
tho compartment containing tho dial
plates which record und exhibit tho
number of votes cast for each candidato.

and us soon us this Is dono tho tally sheet
moves nlong out or sight nnd reach, so
that no tallies can bo erased or additional
marks surreptitiously added.
A novel dovico is that patented by A.
C. Carey, of Itoston. Tho ballots nro

nro unwound to bo counted. Tho begin
