Titr Australian ballot la tpoken of aa
something new discovered or Invented
by the present generation. The fact la,
the system I very old, so otd that It
run luck to rlmltlve times.
Of couiBewheroibaolutoiuonarchlie
prevailed there was no need of a I al
lot. Among the ancient Jea a, who In
a meaauro were a self governed pen; le,
at least before tho king period, a sys
tem of casting Iota was observed lu the
selection of iwrsoni for ofllce oriu
thorlty. It Is true that even In this
scheme It was lelleved that Hod
would send the right lot to the right
man. Anyhow, Ills lo Ihl primitive
aouice that historian trace tho first
Idia of a secret ballot,
A ballot system ( revelled among the
ancient (Ireeks. Originally a peb
ble or small atone wa used.
A whole one nuant an airirniallve, and
a iiforaled bble a negative. Later
on the ebb!e gave way tunnotilclal
form roado ol broute and stem)!.
There wera different methods oUtrvcd
for the election of the varlouaolllcers.
Kor some 11 was merely a show of
hands, for others by lot, and still for
others white and black btana were
used. This latter system led to Ilia
habit of calling huugry olllceeeeVers
beau eaters.
What wa known a oatrscl.m
among the (Ireek wa carried out I a
strictly I rlvate ballot. When a Itader
made hlmaelf fto obnoxlou that neither
I arty could tolerate him, a vote of
exile wa ordered. Kach rson wrote
the name ou a lece of shell and put It
secrttllnua box. If a majority of
the vole thus cast called au official to
leave the country, lie muatdoso and
remain away ten yiars. It waian
tasy method ol getting rll of dema
gogues, but unfortunately phllosoj her
wrruthu sent away by the tricks of
jiolltlclana. Arlatldr the Juat wo
thua banlthed and he even, wiotehla
own name on a ahell for an Illiterate
lron, because the poltlclana ralsul
the cry of exile for him. II was audi
rate of Injustice u Ihl which finally
led to the abolition of the cuatom.
What la known a the Australian
ballot among u waa Introduced Into
Home two centuries before Christ.
Kach voter received a wooden shingle
covered with wax. On this were writ
ten the name of all the tandldatea.
The voter then made a hole In the wax
In front of thename he wished elected
lo ofllce, then placed hla tablet In the

ballot system.
During the middle agea Hie ballot
was used In many of the Italian rrj ub
ilc,and in other governing bodice In
vnrloui countries. It was In those daya
that the system of lectlng the l'opo
waa adojted, Phi embrace a very
