In addition to the instructions, the '"written in name" to be counted MUST be marked with an X, to be a legal vote. The county clerk's letter la as fol lows : "There still seem to be some misunderstanding about counting written in names on the ballots. In order that there be no mistake In the count I want to explain this fully. "Any name written in on a Re publican ballot, regardless of the political faith of the person, must be counted on the Republican tally sheet. Every name written in on a Democratic ballot and voted for must be counted on the Democratic tally sheet. In other words tally every name on a Republican ballot on a Republican tally sheet and every name appearing on a Demo cratic ballot on a Democratic tally sheet. "In order to secure the nomina tion by having one's name written In, the person must receive the ma jority of the votes of the party on whose ballot his name Is written In. "Please take this letter to the polls with you on election day so you may refer to it if necessary." The letter comes as a reply to reports circulated, chiefly in the country districts, that a name writ ten for a Democrat on a Republi can ticket, or vice versa, counted in the total of the candidate's votes. It is also explained that voters who switched their parties do not receive both Democratic and Republi can ballots to vote as they please, but will be given only the ballot of the party under which they regis tered. Political faiths cannot be changed In the voting precincts. Handbills containing sensational last minute charges made their ap pearance in the rural districts to day. They were reported in the form of affidavits. In accordance with long established custom, it is likely that Thursday evening; a deluge of 11th hour canards will descend upon the voters, Most of the candidates were busy today in the field making house to house campaigns. Some of the county aspirants may get on the radio tomorrow night. In the larger precincts of this city and Ashland and In the country double counting boards will be used. In mot of these precincts the double board starts at 1:00 o'clock, in three at 10;O0 o'clock.
