WlIAT is known as the Australian 1
i system of voting provides for an abso
' lutely seer * t ballot. The ballots are
provided by the state , anil contain the

A * for whom be wishes In vote. No per ; ,
sons arc permitted to remain in the poll 0

( into the room except for the purpose v
of voting , and no person is permitted °
to vote a ticket which he brings in with e
liiin. lie receives bis tiokelTafter en '
teriug the room. For the benefit of
voters who are unable to read , sworn
officers are at hand who read the. ticket t
that the voter may check it. There if v
" " * " not much encouragement in such a sys s
tem for the expenditure of money to e
corrupt voters.
The Methodist preachers of Colum q

passed a series of resolutions protest
ing against the expenditure of money
in inaugural processions at Washington
the oest 4th of March , and especially :
calling on Gen. Harrison to squelch tl
i ' 'that relic of barbarism , the inaugural

The shrinkage in railway stocks is
the inevitable result of reckless , undig
nified , crude dealing by managers.
Whether the end has yet. come to I lie
disastrous shrinkage depend ? upon how
sofln wiser methods prevail. Railroad *
are in many instances , and ought al
ways to be , public benefactors. By
their blind arrogance they have often
made themselves public enemies. Se
verities in railroad laws and * the with
drawal of confidence in investing circles
are the logical outcome. Sooner or lat
or there will be a general scrambling
down from the high horse. Railroads
will have to come to the public with
clean hands and pure heaitsaud in con
tntion of spirit.
It now seems probable' that Presi
dent-elect Harrison will have an in
creased Presidential family , or in other
*
\ \ ords , he will have to appoint eight in
stead of seven members of the Cabinet.
This Congress will probably pass the
bill creating an Agricultural portfolio.
Of course , as the west is the granary
of the nation , it will claim the right
to name the man for the new Cabinet
position. Massachusetts will have a
• • jiudidate in the person of Mr. Loring.
but he is too remote from the com and
wheat fields of the nation to be accept
able.
THERE is one example or ' the influ
ence of woman suffrage in changing the
educational policy of a great city which
ha * not beep sufficiently noted by the
-tudents of American politics , in the
recent school election in Boston , it wa-
lhe woman 's votes which defeated what
was known theru as the Roman or for
eign clement in public school affairs
and placed the school hoard in control
of Americans. In this respect woman
suffrage has created a revolution in the
public schools of the city which aspires
to be the intellectual metropolis of the
nation.

Mlts. PausoNs. wife of the deceased
aiiarehi-t. advertised a lecture for la > !
night in Chicago , but. the police interior
ed and prohibited the meeting on inform

anxious for another Uayniarkec affaii

Poverty and riches are next door

The story is that the child had died of

to be made Christmas day on the char

erty i ?
According , to the Chicago Times
there ' is a good deal of infant murder
going on in that city. It declares that
there are not less than 00.000 in fa mi

Misdirected Malignity.
[ nankclman Deninenit.j
Theto scorns to be a combination among tho
newspapers of Hitchcock county to malign
Judge Cochran , and all because he Imposed a
light sentence upon Hunter , a murderer who
was convicted of manslaughter. The trial oc
curred rttCulhertson , last week. The prisoner
and tho state were represented bj' able legal
minds. The trial was fair anil impartial. The
jury said Hunter was guilty of nothing great
er than mauslanghter. and accompanied their
verdict by an appeal ro the court for a display
of "tho utmost meroy toward the prisoner. "
The court heeded tho appeal , and imposed the
lightest possible sentence one year in the
penitentiary. Perhaps Hunter should have
been found guilty of murder in the first de
gree. Why should .Judge Cochran lie blamed
for tlio blubbering sentimentalism of the
squaw jury , which took for gospel the tieanti
fill ihetoric of thu prisoner's attornejs and
iiriord the evidence in the case ? How can
anjtliimr bo expected from a court when it is
CDinpellcd to have cases tried before such ju
rors as were presented in tho Hunter ease ?
Tho Hitchcock county papers should devote
their energies toward educating the class of
"irond and true men" which that county fur
nishes for jury duty , rather than indulge in
abuse of a magistrate who simply endeavored
to catry out the wishes oi' his jurors.

Fuanois Mukphy tells some wholesome t
truths in his temperance work. At Indiani
apolis the other night he said : "We want men t
to sign and keep tlie pledge , and they can not c
do it by any political hot-housing process , i
There are two things very sacred with men -
their religion and their politics and one has
about the same root in their natures as the
other. But tlie boundaries or these are gen
erally sacred , and ever to be kept so. Never '
mix them , I beseech you. " . '
Tub way to make law abiding citizens of the f
negroes is to treat them as such and set them
r [
mi example of peaceable and law abiding ,
*
methods. Tho way to provoke them to mur
derous resistance is to pursue them with mur-
"
jcrous weapons , and on every slight provi ca *
tion organize armed bands of men to arrest l
them without warrant. You cannot fire civil- l
ization into a negro with a shotgun , nor make *
iiiin a good citizeu by burning the bouse over n
