ON BALLOT MUST
ALSO BEAR AN X
Voters at the primary election May
20th, can write In the Ame of their
choice lor any office on the ballot,
but must mark an "X" In front of
the name. The Oregon election laws
ipeciflcally require that this be done
In order to have the vote counted,
according to the county clerk. The
written in name without an "X" In
front of It, la worthless.
The county clerk says she has re
ceived many Inquiries on this point
and desires that It be thoroughly un
derstood by all voters, and that they
govern themselves" accordingly In
writing In names.
There are spaces on the ballots,
under each office, for writing In
names. If a Republican voter desires
to write In the name of a Demo
cratic candidate, for any office. It
counta on the Republican ticket, and
not on his own party total. The same
applies vice versa. May voters are
under the impression the opposite
rule prevails.
The county clerk estimates there
will be more names than usual writ
ten In for the major offices, judging
by the number of inquiries. Here
tofore the writing in haa been con
fined to constables, Justices of the
peace, and facetious citizens who
wrote in the names of Mose Barkdull
and Dr. Keene for president. In 1028,
when everybody was feeling good, the
names of 125 well known men
throughout the country were "written
In" for constable, etc.
The county court and county clerk,
as provided by law, will meet tomor
row and officially designate the poll
ing places In the 68 precincts of the
county. There will not be many
changes from the 1930 election.
V.'. F.I
It is a pleasure and privilege to
me as mayor of the city of Medford
to extend a cordial endorsement of
the annual Buddy Poppy sale of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars to be con
ducted on May 20th and 21jt. The
organization is to be congratulated
on the deep concern It la manifesting,
both in the manufacture and the sale
of these memorial emblems for their
war buddies and for the widows and

sacrifice of America's soldier sons.
