Show . Convenient. It's so handy to have a railroad running between precincts during election times ; say between Ogden and Corinne ! Men can ride from the one to the other with such ease, and deposit their ballots Uke conscientious con-scientious voters doing the utmost for the candidate of their choice. This hint will help to explain the large vote of that nice little burg on the banks of Bear River. In New York they call this thing "repeating," but the folks of Utah hadn't learned practically what the word meant until the advent of "the new order of things." We remember an opposition candidate for Delegate here one time who tried to make his 15G votes 157 by attempting to "repeat" in two precincts of this city. Wasatch has ' a better plan, though, than that of traveling by rail a number of miles simply to vote twice, or so. There they can march boldly up to the polling place and vote just as often as they please if they only go Anti-Mormon. "How many times have you voted for Max., Bob?" "Only twice yet to-day." "Giteout! I did better'n that afore I got my third breakfast sharpener." |
