According to that special provision, machine must be adopted sixty days before election. As a matter of commissioner, the Board is clear under the provisions of the statutes regarding the adoption of the machine which is to be chosen by the commission. **Description of Machine.** The statute says in the same chapter of the law: "No machine or machine system shall be adopted or used unless the same shall be so constructed as to afford every person who has a right to vote, who for any reason for any office or for or against any measure with a reasonable opportunity to vote straight or split the ticket, and enable him to do this in secret, and shall be so arranged as to preclude any elector from voting for any candidate for the same office more than once more than care, and from voting for more than the number to be elected, and provide a means for voting by which" --- # PHIL GOODWIN TO BE CHAIRMAN TOMORROW ### Final Arrangements Are Completed for Great Dinner on Speech of Acting Governor.
