president, candidates must receive a majority of the votes "cast' In order to be declared the nominee. Otherwise, the matter is taken to the state convention for inal selection. How to Vote. - In voting for candidateseach elector may vote for his first choice, and for his second choice, and if no condidate has received a majority of the first choice votes, the lowest candidate is dropped and the second choice votes of his supporters are distributed among the others, then if no bae receives a . majority, the next lowest candidate is dropped and his second choice, votes are distributed until one of the candidates has a majority of all votes cast. With .this method' it la evident that the vote for governor, United StateB senator' and president will inevitably result in a majority for one candidate. Hence the idea that the vote for these officers is simply advisory is erroneous. The members of the party committees are chosen at the same election and serve for the next two. years. This is a complete innovation, for the law has never attempted to regulate very extensively the organization and conduct of the party committees. At the same election also, delegates to the state convention are elected, who arc to meet for the nomination of candidates for state officers and for the framing of the party platform. The convention must be held in the city of Indianapolis within one hundred and fifty days after the March primary. Candidate's Obligation. To become a candidate for office the candidate must file a declaration of his candidacy thirty days before
