NOTICE TO CORRESPONDENTS.
"Another Voter for Reduction.'"—The two legal opinions are perfectly correct. Every elector has the right to vote both for reduction arid prohibition. But if an elector, instead'of striking out the top line only deliberately strikes out the second line as well, it may fairly be presumed that he sees no advantage in reducing' a few houses and wishes to vote for prohibition only. It would be an extraordinary thing- to count an elector's vote as in favour of a proposition which he has voted against by striking it out of his ballot-paper.
