Owing to his determination, ; mnoonced during the campaign, to re quire the outgoing treasurer to count oat the state Innds in cash, and his ex pressed intention of accounting to the -tate for interest on state funds, the im pression became quite general that the tanks Had entered into an agreement tat this would not go upon his boud. t hether that he true or not. it is stated It populists that Mr. Meserve wili prob- T.ine ration is mnanaoiy s.rnpie. illy not ask them to become his bonds- Jh?70t "W both. t0 tb? cent election came from Hudson, Mich., nays the Chicago Tribune The polls closed at 5 o'clock and two minute later the result of the ballot for preH- dent, congressman and governor bad been telegraphed to . iJetroit Within five minutes it hud beti writ to all the prominent cities of the country. The means by which this was accom plished was the Abbott voting tnocliiiie, legalized for use at all electioim in the state of Michigan at the lust session of the legislature. It was the first time the machines bad been used at a general election, The machine keeps the record by means of registering wheel. At the close of the balloting it is only necessary for the inspectors to read th number as tbey appear on the wheels. The working parts of the apparatus are a set of slides, each carrying the names of all the candidates for one office, the re gister wheels, a set of which is connect ed with each candidate s name and up on which the Totes are recorded, and an operating bar, which carries the UHit wneel of every candidate whose register wheels are in the voting space forward one number, thus adding each vote to those before received by the candidate, J he machine keens a correct record of all votes cast, regardless of and not in eluding those who may enter the machine without voting; it keeps a tally of all votes given to each candidate; and it keeps a record of all votes wherein the voters neglected to select a candidate for any office. 1 he operation is remarkably simple. WATSON TO BUTLER men, but will offer to furnish a well known guaranty bond company as his security. it is understood that this company win demand something like ei.ouo to right, aud finds before him the names of all candidates arranged before him as on the ballot, all candidates for an office in a row, and all candidates of a party in a column. Each party has a distinctive furnish a bond of the magnitude of that ?,l0Kl?!Publ,?a?, democrat, b'u; prohibition white; and so on. At the right of the machine are the slides bear ing the names of candidates, In the mid dle are two parallel bars in a vertical position, enclosing what is known as "their voting space." .? . ; to vote it is necessary to place the names of the candidates selected in the voting space by sliding .them along to to the left. The partv ticket is first put in position by means of a lever. To split the ticket the voter slides the names of candidates from any other parties into tne space afterwards, forcing out those running for the same offices on the reg ular ticket. After arranging the ticket before him as desired a single motion sumces to vote it as a whole. ii?ery vote as cast is announced bv the machine, so that failure to vote is at once detected. How the vote is thrown is, however, known only to the man within the booth. It Is claimed that the chance of mistake through ignorance is totanjr removed 11. W.

It will be urged that the state can well afford to do this, if the treasurer shall hereafter pay into tne treasury the interest received on . deposits of state funds. It is also claimed that these guaranty bond companies are better security than the ordinary list of individuals, and that republicans are not in a position to ob ject tor tne reason that one of the repub lican county officials here has given that variety of bond and one of the republi can state senators from this county two years ago introduced a measure requir ing public officers to give boud through guaranty companies.

Seven columns of Watson People's party paper are devoted to it Xne letter Is supplemented by four col limns 01 advice to Populists to "sit steady In the boat and hold their party together." The editorial tone of the paper is one of fulfilled prophecv. Watson declares that the failure of the Populists to support Bryan in the close states brought about McKinley's elec tion, lie goes Into a long review bf the circumstances leading to his nomi nation and acceDts the Vice Presi aential nomination "because I said I would." He declares that if the St. nlist convention had nominated a straight Populist ticket it would have been elected. It would, he said hav anven the iilUs and Gormans where they belong into the KeDublican ranks and the Eryans and Blands would have loined with the Pomilists. lie Cf mplains bitterlv of the treatment ue nas received at the hands of the Populist leaders, and addresses himself particularly to Senator Butler in this way: '.., Senator, a reform has no richt tn exist If It has no valid complaint to make.

It was for individual 1 .its on one side and Cor the right to e -slnate on the other, Ike contest waa the moat Unequal on i:20rd. The common people, farmers cad mechanics, on one side; on the oth sr the money lenders, banks, corpora tions ot alt kinds, trusts, syndicates and combines, together with newspapers and magazines, with few exceptions. There waa five times more money used than ever before, and cords of railroad passes given away to those who would promise to vote as directed. There never was as much intimida tion aud threatening of the laboring class and it led to deceit, cloaked and covered by the Australian ballot. More than 500 here in Lincoln wore the Me Kinley badges but voted for Bryan, and , undoubtedly many ol them took Mc Einley money all this to hold their jobs. Who will dare say that these de pendent men were criminals or cowards? The following confession is from the Ne brask State journal: "A large number of Bryanites in Lin coln evidently took the advice of the boy orator in wearing the McKinloy button in public and voting for him in private. Evil communications corrupt good manners, and doubtless if tbe ob ject of this hypocrisy and deception was to injure the feelings of the good and true republicans, that object , was ob " tained. The Journal feels sure that no republicans wore the Bryan badge and voted for McKinley. Republicans are not made of that kind of stuff." There were no corporations, no city, state or national governments, to threaten McKinley men, for the cussed Bess was all on their side. A strange freak is now being exhibited a demo cratic president turning out of office regular democrats of . his own appoint twenty-seven miles distant The harness was buckled that hitches the factory wheels of Buffalo to the greatest cataract on earth. This morn ing the street cars of this city moved by Falls power. Hereafter the Falls must work enough to earn their living. jpUe distance covered by the line be tween Buffalo and the Falls is twenty seven miles, and the expert electricians who have the work in charge, estimate that the loss of energy will be less than ten per cent, and may not, much exceed five. ' . Careful tests are to be made in this connection, the tests covering both night and day,, and clear as well as rainy weather, The electricians are paying particular attention to this test, as on the perfect insulation of the carrying line depends much of the future success of the undertaking. xne line mat nas oeen built to carry the current-bearinir wires is of a most substantial nature. Unlike the ordi nary telegraph line, the poles are placed very close together and are braced in such a manner as to be proof against heavy storms. At curves the poles are set double, and are guyed to numerous smaller poles to prevent sagging. The over-head line extends from the power house at the falls to the city limits of Buffalo, where the wires enter cement conduits. On the over head line glass insulators are found unequal to the .strain, and porcelain insulators were made especially to hold the wires. ' The insulators were subiected to a current of 30,000 volts before being put in use. mere are at present on the poles eight, cables, each with a carry ing capacity of 5,000 horsa power, or 40,000 horse power in all The poles are of such a substantial character. cent just for supporting the regular JSTJT'm a utmb?r 0Lcab,le' fianjocratic ticket. can doubled without subjecting uioul w m Krenvor atritia uiaa la con sidered safe.

Under the contract with the city, the completion of the under taking of delivering power in Buffalo was not obligatory before next June. It waa in order to secure tbe contract with the street railway company that the work was hurried through so far ahead of time. Contracts with others desiring to use the electrical power will now ba made, and it is thought that by the opening of spring the power will be well distributed through out the city. , Since the inception of the undertak ing, and during its Carrying out, the company has frequently called upon Messrs. Edison and Tesla for advice, and these famous masters of electricity have been frequent visitors to . the Niagara Falls power house to solve technical problems. The power wtll sell in Buffalo for 936 a horse power per annum, and under its contract with the city the company must in crease its capacity 10,000 horse power per year until the maximum of M.OO herse power has been reached.

Nor does any one regret more than I do that the Democratic managers, in shaping their fusion deals, have considered those Populists only who are getting loaves and fishes. They have lost sight of the great army of privates, whose honest hearts and sincere souls form the strength of the re-enforcement Mr. Bryan needs. Those Populists of the rank and file have the spirit of crusaders, and they would die for a principle more quickly than they would sell It These men will not vote for Sewall, nor for Sewall electors.
