State Treasurer Meserve will probablj

company. 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

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.

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.

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

tions ot alt kinds, trusts, syndicates 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

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

7 1 in the country during the rs
falo Street Railway company for 1.000
horse power. 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

sight of the great army of privates, whose

nomination of the Populi&t party has

in which he took exceptions to its
tone. The reply is as follows:
