THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, rOHTLAND. OCTOBER 31, 1920 IE CHOICE IN VOTE FOR Preferential System Not Ar bitrary as to Rule. BALLOT MARKING SHOWN Single-Shot" lor Commissioners Is Limit, Owing to Number of Candidates Running. While voters may vote all three choices for mayor at the election Tuesday, it is not necessary to vote for more than one choice. The sys tem used in municipal elections in Portland is called the preferential system, and when the number of can didates is more than three times the number of offices to be filled the voter may vote a first, second and thirl chocie. In Tuesday's election, only first choice votes may be cast for commis sioners. For the office of mayor, though, the number of candidates is such that the voter may have inree ( choice, but he can vote only first choice if he wishes. He cannot vote ; more than one choice for the same i candidate. I One Choice "Single-Shooting." Voting only first choice is termed "'single-shooting" and is permissible. When the voter has but one choice "single-shooting" is advisable, as vot ing a second choice under such cir cumstances may be the same as a vote against the candidate favored by first choice. Election officials in counting the vntoa rnlint flrRt choice VOteS first. ! If any candidate has a majority of all the votes cast, he is elected. If there is no majority on first choice, second-choice votes are added to the first-choice and if any candidate then has a majority, he is elected; if not, third-choice votes are added to first and second choices and the highest man in all three choices wins. By this system a person voting a second choice for a candidate he does not favor enough to give a first choice, may help his second choice man win over the man he gave the fir.i choice. And the same is true with the third choice. System Is Illustrated. The following shows the method of properly and Improperly voting. To vote first choice only: he has never missed voting at a single election during the iast 60 years. He has voted for eight dif ferent men elected to the presidency, and expects to cast his ballot next Tuesday for Warren G. Harding. Mr. Snipes came to" The Dalles n 1853, and has resided here since that time. CITY ELECTION IS LIVELT Progressive Ticket at Cottage Grove Arouses Interest. COTTAGE GROVE, Or., Oct. 30. (Special.)

Support to City Commissioner Mann, in his campaign for re-election is coming from all parts of the city, ac cording to his campaign committee. the bulk of it resulting from his man agement of various departments the last four years. Letters by the hundreds have been sent to Commissioner Mann by these supporters, many of whom he has not met personally. His campaign has been based solely j upon his recora. During his adminis- j tration it is related that he provided '. for a water supply to Portland which, for the first time in recent history, allowed Portland to go through a summer without shortage. Water rates have not been increased, hi supporters say, and he has issued only $100,000 of bonds, of which 375, 000 were used in the purchase of liberty bonds during the war. Han Has Lawns9 Support. "In your campaign for re-election I do not think you have placed the proper emphasis on the fact that ; under your administration we have been allowed to sprinkle our lawns daily," writes Dr. Thomas W. Ross, "and since you have been in office we have not had the annual summer bogey about the reservoirs going dry. It is a shame that the lawns of Port land cannot vote and that the roses have not suffrage." The construction of a dam costing approximately $30,000 to conserve the water supply for release during the dry period of the year, thus saving the cost of building additional reser voirs within the city limits. Is one of the notable achievements of Mr. Mann's administration, according to Walter G. Coxp who has written to Commissioner Mann, pledging his ear nest support. Manufacturers Give Badclns;.
