TOO MANY AFFIDAVITS.
It does not do to tiike too many affidavits! Our local contemporary publishes an announcement in ■ its I advertisement columns which calls" upon the electors to strike out " the two bottom lines," and then emphasising this in an editorial it urges the electors "to cross out Ik two lines." Now, in the three lines of the green ballot paper bow is the perplexed liberal to strike out the" two bottom lines" nrid the "two first lines" Assuming that there can be two first lines and two bottom lines, he will have to cross out the top line once, tbo second lino twice, and the third line once. This is what our local contemporary requests on behalf of the publicans in its issue bf Monday, Perhaps it will explain what it really does mean and how its patrons require liberals to vote, Till the election is over, it will be well for the publicans to keep their journalistic. organ ou a limited allowance of affidavits.
