Representative Thon and Senator, Hu- ebsch have introduced H. B. 68 and S. B. 50 respectively,, both bills identical' and provtding for grouping, the names of candidates by, office instead of ln a Party eolumn.

The Office Group Ballot is flot a great or untried linnovation,. becaus-e It le iden- tical ln form with the primare ballot; now successfully used ln Illinois and bas therefore demonstrated ite practieal value. Voterra are familiàr with it; and present holders of public office should look upon it wlth favor since it Is the form of ballot on which they were momi- nated. A further point wh'ich. conm-ends the Office Group Ballot to the vote'rs is that it markedly diminishes the size of the ballot, though it does not reduce the, number of - names. However, it would 1-pare the citizens of Illinois the v'ast. (iuantlty of unused paper which made the general election in November, a physical as well as a mental problem.
