After many visits to Washington,"both bills passed the legislature but were vetoed by the governor. . "A joint committee of both the senate and.the house, on elections, joined the members of the organizaâ€" tions meeting in my chambers, and discussed the matter of the amendâ€" ment of election laws. As a result of the coâ€"operation of this committee, we had a very unusually large balldt. The Ballot was so large that it was almost impossible to mark it in the booth, and inasmuch as it was necessary to use candles to light the booths, since in many places electric lights are not available, in very many instances the ballots caught fire beâ€" fore the voter had completed the marking of the ballot.

Jarecki, county judge of Cook county, spoke on "Proâ€" posed Changes in Illinois Election Laws" before the delegates to the Institute of Government which was in session at Northwestern university recently. Judge Jarecki first cited some of the defects of the present law which permits of such huge balâ€" lots that they form a menace, and then mentioned various methods now under consideration for amending election laws. He said in part: "In the fall election of 1924, which was both the presidential, as well as the usual biâ€"annual county election, of an enormous piece of paper also proved to be;orf great annoyance to the voter, and in order toiini-â€"s;m;;‘ tota! state revenues come from the way in which this matter could be| °) industry. . . obviated, a conference of various civic| fiv?â€"‘t‘;ledg:::m:"m;:tr\tst s ct:'l;ne :\: :e ‘tlza;!ons labed called_ sCt aong ‘ troleum into gasoline, our oil comâ€" ci;.shr‘; acuss thehs“bjed" an $s | panies extract about 35 per cent gasâ€" e mep on melmang ind hy io im ae ehetogear e nopoition order that the ballot may be short.| is intreasing. .

"At this conference not only tbe} shortenening of the ballot was disâ€"| €ussed, but the amendment of all the | election laws was considered, such as | shortening of the ballot, central regâ€" istration, central counting station of ballots after election, distribution of sample ballot directly to the voter‘s home fromâ€"the election commissionâ€" | ers, reduction in the number of elecâ€"! tive offices, nonâ€"partisan election of judges, mavor, etc. "When it was realized that all these matters could not possibly be taken up before the legislature and successfully considered and passed, because of the large volume of busiv ness pending before it, it was decided to concentrate our efforts upon two of the bills, namely: the central regâ€" istration bill and the arrangement of the presidential electors in blocks inâ€" stead of individually, as they are now arranged on the ballot.

This would have an effect upon all judges and clerks of election in adhering strictâ€" ty to the law and in carefuily countâ€" ing the ballots; "Fourthâ€"Compensation for judges and clerks of election to be raised and fixed at $10. "Also various other minor changes, such as moving the dates for various operations further apart, which would give more time for the printing of the ballot. Under our present law, which has been in existence for sevâ€" eral years, it at times is almost imâ€" possible to prepare everything necâ€" essary for an orderly election,in the time allotted under the law, and the employment of a large force of men continuously, night and day, to have everything in readiness on the day of election is necessary." wORLD‘S CHEAPEST 2 GASOLINE IN U.

It will not be only a pleasure to use it but it will be safe and wholeâ€" some to drink, to cookâ€"with, and to bathe in. It is the duty of every citizens to come to the pells at the next election and vote for Mr. Cheney and his ticket and for a clean water supply. It is true that chlorination is very effective in its extermination of bacâ€" teria and our city government has within the last year purchased and installed the latest and most approvâ€" ed chlorinating plant but this interâ€" poses only one barri against the intrusion of the deadg! disease. Then too, there is very little danger as long as our community has a cleaw bill oi health, but one uncontrolled cage will spread with alarming rapidity and cause havoe that may be very serious and impossible to repair. Still later, in fact within the memâ€" ory of most of us here, medical -el-‘ ence discovered the u&!nnd#fisq of bacteria living in water nppn-‘ which cause typhoid fever and M‘ intestinal disorders. This w placed a new and greater importance upon the filtration of public water supplies. â€" These discoveries . were made only after whole communities had been wiped out by these dreaded diseases. In these days typhoid is seldom encountered due to its conâ€" trol by doctors and health departâ€" ments when it does break out, and to the filtration and chlorination of waâ€" ter supplies in most communities. Highland Park has been particularly free from typhoid but should two or three cases break out here unobserved. for a short time we would all be in danger through contamination of our drinking water. 0 RELATION OF WATER SUPPLY TO HEALTH impot served that these germs will live sometimes for many days waiting opâ€" portunity to be received again thru the agency of drinking water into another human body to start again their deadly cycle of propagation in the human intestines.
