Ona of these, marked with an inverted V
he allowed for Mr Beck on the,ground that
it had been held by English and Canadian
courts to be a "good mark," while he reject-
ed two marked with a single stroke, each
for Mr Garrow, on the'ground that, thong
such marks had been counted by the court
in England, they had not yet been counted
in Canada. Surely Mr Justice Osler, in a
case where there was nothing else in dis-
pute but the form of the mark, might well
have set a precedent that would have been
at least in the right direction.
In these and similar caste the question
in dispute was not whether the voter had
clearly indicated bis preference for one of
the candidates, but whether he had also
made such a mark as might be identified
by the party scrutineers. Now, apart al-
together from the expediency of deciding
the validity of a marked ballot .on any such
round it seem •nor
g e obvious to the ordinary
lay mind that two strokes meeting in a cer-
tain way would be quite as good a means
of identification as a single stroke would be.
It is much to be regretted that the learned
judge did not set a precedent which county
judges might hereafter have followed with
advantage.
But Canadian judges abould go much
further than this, and the sooner they do
so the better, The should oast aside all
tilpught of availiability of the mark as a
means of identifioation. That has nothing
to do with the purpose for whioh this
method of voting was devised. It was in-
tended to protect the voter by enabling
him to vote secretly, so as to evade at-
tempts at intimidation. If be wants to
let others know how he votes, why should
he not be permitted to Jo so? The Judi-
cial theory seems to be that identification
of ballots by mark forms may facilitate
bribery, but the effort to act on this theory
in recounts and scrutinies has done un-
told mischief and no good. Bribery cannot
Abe stopped, or even checked, by such

11 Last fall James Allison murdered Mrs.
Anthony Orr near Galt. On Feb. 4th the
lad was hanged. Since then fate seems to
be pursuing both families with relentless
band. A few days after the hanging Tony
Orr scalded both feet severely. He
was out the other day for the first time.
Mr. Allison is practically demented.
Now one of the Allison girls is suffering
with diphtheria, and the house she was
in was badly wrecked in the recent
flood. A few evenings ago Mrs. Dick-
son Ballantyne, Anthony Orr's house-
keeper, about 70 years old, went to the
cow stable to do some milking. As she
did not return Mr. Orr set out to look
for her. He reached the barn and fol-

she bad fallen through a trap door.
She is hurt internally and is now in
