. A question has been raised here In re
gard to voting that will probably take a
Philadelphia lawyer to settle to the satis-
Taction of everyone. It Is this: In this
county the fuslonlsts have two nominees
for the legislature and the republicans have
seven. Now then If a voter puts a cross
in the circle at the head of the republican
ticket, thus voting a straight republican
ticket, and then votes for Morning and
Miller, the fusion nominees, will this vote
be thrown out. or, If not th. own out, which
of the seven republicans will get a rote
out of it, the voter being allowed to vote
for seven. According to the statutes,
should a voter put a cross In the circle at
the head of the ticket and then mark a
'cross after some of the names on the op
posite ticket, a vote is counted for thoss
votid for Individually, while the cross at
the head of the ticket votes for the re
mainder of the ticket. This has been talked
of considerably of late, and the best remedy
yet suggested, according to the candidates,
Is for everyone to vote a straight ticket
:Xrom top to bottom. ,
Fusion Scheme Falls.
The meeting of the Traveling Men's Re
publican club at the Lincoln hotel tonight,
which was called presumably for the pur
pose of committing the organisation to the
endorsement of Candidates Berge and
Watske on the fusion ticket, failed In Its
'purpose, and Instead Cal A. Diamond, who
was the leader In the anti-movement, re
signed as president of the club. In his
place L. P. Sine was chosen and Z. H. Chit
tenden was elected secretary.
,' After calling the meeting to order Mr.
Diamond moved that the club disband. A
wrangle followed and when if became ap
parent that the antls wero outvoted Mr.
Diamond resigned, giving as a reason that
as he could not support some of the candi
dates on the republican ticket that It was
better that' he turn over the management
of the' club to some one elsn. After the
meeting, which was held behind closed
doors, Mr. Diamond refused to state why
he resigned, but Joined with the other

that a grave had been dug, the dark soil

the same old party that made such a dis

years. After the meeting closed the con
gressman shook hands with more than 1,000
people. "Little Polk" will do its best for
Congressman Hinshaw and he will be re
turned to congress by a much larger vote
than he received two years ago, and the
prospects are that the whole republican
ticket will receive more votes than has
been given to it in this county for years.
