There will have to be a material Increase lu the number of ballot boxes before the next general elec tion or the candidate's torm of office will expire before It is known whether he is elected or not," said a politician facetiously. "Speaking seriously," he continued, "it will ho necessary to Increase tne numuer oi polling places on account of the en franchisement of women, and the probable Increase in the number or measures initiated or referred. There! 1. nn reason to suppose the number j of matters placed before the People, next time will be less than at pres. , ent and there Is reason to think thnt It will Increuse materially.

You notice that many of them are preparing to take lessons in economics and sociology by mail from the University. I should think that, other things equal, women would vote more rapidly than men. The average woman w rites more rap idly than the nverage man. She enn fold up things more neatly and quick ly, and I should think that ought to make some difference with rapidity i vntlnu 1 have seen men fold clothing and pack trunks nnd have ilwayB thought that perhaps me termed 'stuffed ballot boxes inigni apply to more boxes than those which wero packed wun irmiuiin.-iii.,;f-Dut perhaps they fold and deposit ballots more neatly man mey articles of wearing apparel."
