The Indiana Supreme court handed down an opinion onthe new Australian ballot- box law. It is held that this legislature has the right to enact such a law; that the fail- ure to stamp a ballot did not invalidate it that a board #hould not refuseto counta ballot because the clerk had written his name in the right hand corner instead of the left; that where county and State boxes were used a ballot should be counted, no matter which box it was deposited in. . The case involves the office of auditor of Man- derburg county. The Pennsylvania prohibitionists have lost their case in the lower courts. They attacked the constitutionality of the Baker ballot law in the Philadelphia courts to test it. As a result common pleas court No. 2 refused to grant the injunction asked for against city officers to restrain them from carrying into effect the new ballot law. This decision was given without an accompany- ing opinion. The prohibition leaders "will, however, appeal to the supreme court. Their contention is that the law makes’ dis- criminations in favor of the strong political parties, and that it prohibits the prohibition- ists from having the names of their candi- dates printed upon the official ballots, because the highest number of votes cast for the prohibition candidates in the last election fell below three per cent. of the aggregate number of votes cast.
