For state and Congressional offices the Republicans will have from 45 to 50 names to select from for the 14 offices to be filled, the number varying with the Congressional districts. Democratic Candidates Scarce. The Democrats will have less than half that number, and on. their ticket the sec ond choice provision will apply only to the office of Governor. v Itn me ne publicans It applies to Governor. Insur ance Commissioner. Congressman Third District and Attorney-General, for each of which offices there are four or more asnlrants for the nomination. Forms which have been prepared by the Secretary of State for the guidance of the County Auditors of the state in preparing the official primary ballots show that the framers of the law did not give much consideration to the voters having poor eyesight or palsied hands. It will take care and time for the man of normal faculties to vote the ticket properly owing to the smallness of the votina- sauares. The squares are one sixth Inch square, or Just the size of what printers call a pica M quad. The legal requirements as to the Instructions that shall go on the ticket and the enaces to be reserved make the use of very small type necessary In some In stances. Ballots to Have 200 Names.
