OIL COMPANY the LEGALS Republic, SS, In the Probate Court, in and (First published Oct. said In Countyjatter of ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE Edwin O. Deceased. the Be Estate a STATE OF KANSAS, County of Fitts, (First Published November 1, 1928)-1t Information for Voters The method of voting is very simple and when properly followed leaves no chance for the ballot to be declared invalid. To obtain a ballot announce your name aloud to the election judges.

If registered (where registration is required) you will be given a ballot with a number written on the upper right hand corner corresponding to your number on the pool book: Retire at once alone, into any vacant booth, and mark your ballot. To vote for a person whose name is printed on the ticket, mark a cross (X) with a lead pencil in the square at the RIGHT of the name of the person for whom you desire to vote. To vote for a person whose name is NOT printed on the ticket, write his name in the blank space provided for the purpose and mark a cross (X), in the square to the RIGHT. Do not mark your ballot except as. indicated above.

A ballot wrongly marked may be returned to the judges and another obtained. No ballot can be taken away from the polling place, and none voted except it be received from the judge of election. A voter cannot occupy a booth over five minutes, if other voters be waiting and the booths all occupied. After marking your ballot, hand it to the judges, folded as you received it, with the number in plain view, but with the names of the candidates concealed, and retire from the room. A voter physically unable to mark his ballot may be assisted by two election officials of different political parties, who shall mark the ballot as directed by the voter.

The Supreme Court of Kansas in July 1925 in deciding the election contest of Wall vs. Pierpont hands down the following conclusions of law which until changed must govern election boards in passing upon the validity or invalidity of election ballots. "CONCLUSIONS OF LAW" 1. A cross mark in a square opposite a blank space on the ballot without writing any name in such blank space invalidates the whole ballot. 2.

A single line in a square opposite a blank space on the ballot invalidates the whole ballot. 3. A single line in a square opposite a printed or written name invalidates the whole ballot. 4. Writing a name in.a proper blank space therefor -without making a cross in the square opposite invalidates the whole ballot.

the 5. Any unauthorized mark, intentionally made, outside of squares used for voting or any mark in the square, if intentionally made for other purposes than the making of a cross, invalidates the whole ballot. 6. The defacing of any square with the purpose of covering up marks already made or for a pencil, whether for any other purpose, or the intentional making of marks either in the or out of the square for other purposes than the marking of the square cross mark required for voting, invalidates the ballot. 7.

The use of ink in makig the cross marks invalidates the ballot. 8. The intentional making of check mark invalidates the whole ballot. 9. The making of an imperfect cross, whether the same consists in too many lines in whole or in part, or the line extending beyond the square, or the lines zigzagging, or the same being a poorly or defectively made cross for any other reason, does not the ballot if the intent of the voters in making the invalidate same was to make the cross mark and the same was not and is not an identifying mark.

10. Stray lines, lines made by a slip of the voter when attempting to make the cross and other accidental lines, do not invalidate the ballot. 11. Erasure by the voter of marks made by him, if the same does not deface or tear the ballot, does not invalidate the ballot. 112.

If the voter, in erasing a mark within abrades the printed lines of the square, this does not invalidate the square, slightly the ballot if the intent of the voter appears to have been to erase his marks and not to' abrade the square. 13. If a voter starts to make a line. in a square, and then, as though discovering he is in the wrong square, desistes and the amount of line he has made is so insignificant that he could reasonably expect it not to be noticed or taken into account by the election officials, then the same is not a "mark" within the meaning of the provisions of section 25-419, Revised Statutes, and does not invalidate the ballot. 14.

Failure of the election official to clip a ballot or any marking or tearing of it by an election official does not invalidate the ballot. 15. The writing of the political designation by the voter after a name properly written in by him in the blank validate the ballot. space does not in16. The writing in by the voter of the after name of the office a name properly written in by him in the not blank space does invalidate the ballot.

17. The writing in of a name in voting the a proper blank space and but for another same, though the same name is printed on the ballot, office, does not invalidate the ballot. 18. The writing in of a name in a proper blank space and voting the same, when the same name is printed thereon for the same office, invalidates the ballot. 19, The unintentional failure of a voter to make two lines, intended as the cross markstin the square, meet does not invalidate the ballot as to other candidates thereon when the squares opposite their names are properly marked with a cross mark.
