Tlie new electoral system which will be tried for the second titno in lht Krone. 1 1 election of may 11, Is ho complicated that even the Frenchman who cun ex plain it is rare. The voting, however, is simple; It resembles the Australian sys tem, bul the method of counting tin' votes and determining the re sult Is (he product of several years of study lo urrlve at a reasonable representation of mlnortty purlieu In parliament. Incidentally thla has itbolished the old second bal loting that was resorted to when no candidate hud a majority, and put an end lo coalitions between two parlies to beat a third on tho second try. Formerly deputies wcro elected by arrondlssemeiit. The reform provided that they be elected -by department, dial Ih to say, the elec toral district fur deputies com prises the entire department in stead of a single nrrondissement. and there nn on each ticket as many candidates us t he depart ment is entitled lo. This change permitted the inaugural Ion of what Is called (lie "iiuotleiit" sys tem to obtain the desired repre sentation of minorities by choos ing the deputies elected In propor tion to Ihe strength of the parties. The "iiuotlent" la obtained, by dividing the number of votes cast in the election by tho number of deputies to be elected. Kach party Is cnltllcd to as many deputies as lis rale contains multiples of the luuticiil.

If they should together poll tho total or the votoa cast for their two tickets, last year they would havo an absolute ma jority, and carry tho whole twelve seats of the department. That Is what they hope to do, but a new and uncertain element In the field this year Is tho Communist tickot. No one known exactly bow great a proportion of the .Socialists went over lo the Communists, but if, ns frequently vstlmated, t)ie de fections are luorcthuu tu per cent the coalition would barely equal the strength of the "National Hlock."
