HOW TO VOTE.
If you want to vote a straight ticket, stamp the square to the left of the name of the party for whose candidates you wish to vote; that is, you should stamp the square to the left of the woids “Republican Ticket.” Be careful about this, some think that they should stamp the square to the left of the name of the Secretary of State in order to vote the straight ticket; but a ticket stamped that way would be counted for the Secretary of State only. Don't forget that the way to vote a straight ticket? 4 is to stamp the square at the left of the words ••Republican Ticket.” Again—You can vote a mixed ticket in ei her of two ways: 1. You can do it by stamping the squai • to the left of the name of each candidate for whom you want to vote on whatever list of candidates it may be. 2. >r you can stamp the square to the Imt of the name of your party, and also to the left of the person on another ticket for whom you wish to vote.
