The position of the boxes shall not be changed ddring the voting. The boxes shall be in open view and accessible to the voter. the box shall not be removed from the polling place until the vote is counted. and some other changes which do not involve any principle which the Supreme Court has not already passed upon. This measure further declares it to be a crime in connection with elections to commit perjury. make false certificate or return. practice any fraud connected therewith. stuff a ballotbox. steal ballots from a box. to bribe a voter. to offer to bribe. to hire a voter not to vote. to bribe or offer to bribe an election officer. to bribe any registration officer. to intimidate a voter. to change ballotboxes. to count falsely. to hinder voters from voting. to make false registration. to make false naturalization. to hinder registration. to vote more than once at the same election. to hinder or interfere with an election officer. to willfully exclude the vote of a lawful voter. or do any other act or thing which will prevent a free ballot and a fair count. And yet. though the whole purpose of this measure is to secure a free and fair election. the Democratic party cry out against it and denounce it as unconstitutional and revolutionary. I firmly believe if we were to strike out every word in this bill after the enacting clause and insert three of the Ten Commandments: Thou shalt not steal.
