But ys ure conducted there in. the most ly manner. ‘The people go to the polling places and vote as quietly as if they were simply depositing a letter in the post office, There Is no shouting, no Doisterous eloctioneering, nothing to create clamor or confusion The present Constitution of Swit was enicted in IM, and in tany respects We like Chat of the United Sta Its udop- tien created a more perfect union among the cantons (han had previously existed and in many respects it was an improve- Ment on that which it replaced.

The Federal Government willalso be authorized to as- sume a general supervision of the school system, which in many cantons has been in the hands of the clergy. The Federal Government is heneeforth fo assume the entire control of military affairs. In Switzerland every able-bodied man is obliged to own his rifle and military equipments, but many of the details of the military system have heretofore been reg- wlted by the cantons, thus producing inequalities which it is proposed to remedy. ‘There have been in operation in Switzer- land not less than twenty-five different codes of civil and criminal law.
