THE SHORT BALLOT NEXT From the Colorado Springs fl ir*:t •. Colorado having adopt-d the hendlenn ballot by n most encouraging majority, the next step forvwu should l»e to secure the nhort hallo. One greet reason for ba«h :o- Tilin' n» lies in the multiplicity of el*»ct •«! tf ficiulr. The people are nb-ol tt-dy I. liable to choose the best man between *:*o many candidates for so manv 4*l flees; they haven't the time t4i study th* m all What th*- short hallo: ha* none t«• improve government has born I* oveil by every commitio'i *dtv. Ilecnuso only a few 4iffield's are elected, the people can go thoroughly into the I'horarti'r of each rnndl ’iite Vnd then the few officials elected an* held .drl-tly to a. .•nun* npr all the *ubordina*i .« appoint* o by them. The result Iwm be.- t great ly to Increase the effU lon*, of municipal government, wlr .**• th** com mission form has been adopt* *.. . There Is no more renson why the people of a state should •*!• • t treas urer. •• • letary of state, attorn *v general, than there is why th«*v should elect the pestilent's cabinet. We Hmlud secure better govern tra. and better state government. If we vluv.!/„*d our governor, leaving it to hint to appoint Ills cabinet. And why would not commission government for the counties prove ns successful u.* commission government for cities? The question of a siiort billin'. for Colorado should be taken up and vigorously pushed in the c*>?ting legislature. It Is probably too much to expert that a short ballot law can bo secured at once, but nt least the necessary education of tin* people can be begun.
