THE SECRET BALLOT A SUCCESS.

[lndianapolis SentineLi The New York Sun is entir ly mistaken as to there being any great difficulties in theiway of voting under the “new-fangled schemes” which have been adopted in twenty states, notwithstanding the opposition of all the corrupt politicians of both parties and all the organs of monopoly and boodle like the Sun. In this state, although only one general election has been held under the new law, very little trouble was experienced. The recent city election in Indianapolis was the second one held under ihe new law, and, altho a very radioal amendment had been made in the law since the former election, only a few hundred defective ballots were found in a total of twenty-five thousand. The number ol ballots that were invalidated by reason of improper marking was so small as to cut no figure whatever—much smaller than was usually the case under the old free and easy, everything goes, bloeks-of-five, boodle system of voting. It is a noteworthy fact, too, that snoh mistakes as were made were mostly committed by those who pride themselves on their superior education and intelligence end not by ihe uneducated and illiterate classes. The explanation of this is that the latter classes took pains to inform themselves as to the proper way of voting, and found the process to be a very simple one indeed, while the former, trusting to their own superiority, disdained to seek or receive instructions, and in a number of instances blundered in their voting througn sheer carelessness or overconfidence. It is the most simple matter in the word- to stamp a device at the top of a' ballot in order to vote a straight tioket or to stamp in front of the names of different candidates in order to vote a mixed tiok t. In Indiana there are very few voters so too in the scale of intelligence as to be unable to perfo.m this simple operation, and for these few the law makes ample provision The Indiana law ie a grand success in every way. A proposition to repeal it wonld not receive the support of 10 per cent, of tjae citizens of this commonwealth, and that 10 per cent, would be made up largely of boodlers and bummers. Under this law the disgusting scenes whioh were formerly witnessed a out the polls—the pulling and hauling and cheating and drunkenness and fighting and swearing—are no longer witnessed. Intimidation and bulldozing of every kind have ceased, and the industry of vote buying, which formerly flourished in Indi ,na, has been almost entirely suppressed. The law has proved, in short, one of the greatest and most salutary reforms ever effected. It is beyond all question a blessing to Indiana. It will never be repealed, and it is not likely to be amended for years to come.— The Sentinel, which originated the agitation for ballot reform m Indiana, which outlined this law before it was introduced in the legislature, which made the fight for it before that body and which kept up the tight until the law was pass d over the bitter op osition of the republicans and the no less bitter, if‘less open, opposition of many democrats, becomes proud' r every day of the work it accomplished. The machine politicians in the democratic party predicted that the passage of this law would ruin the democratic party in Indiana. The Sentinel declared that it wonid give the democratic party the first even chance it had evet had in the state. The result has justified The Sentinel Ever since the law took effect the demo ■ oratio party has had Lings pretty much its own way in Indiana. This is d e. first, to tho fact that this party always suffered by reason of the bulldozing intimidation and bribery which flourished under the old system, and, second, to the fact tnat by its passage of the ballot reform law and its espousal of other reforms it attracted to its support thousands of intelligent and upright v ,ters who, tho’ long in sympathy with the principles it professen, had never before seen the way clear to act with it. The democratic party was never so strong in Indiana as it has been since it became Progressive and reformatory.— The republican party has been fighting reforms of ev6ry kind in this state for years past, and all the time it has beeu going down hill. Uonesty and decency are the verv best politics. The Sun < oes not believe th s, we know, but the results in Indiana show that it is troe.

ATTEMPTED SALE OF THE FARMERS’ ALLIANCE.

Indianapolis Sentinel: For some time there have been rumors that the republicans would try to buy up the farmers' al liance leaders through Lelaud Stanford, the California millionaire. The scheme is to abandon the tariff issue, which was having a most disastrous effect among republican farmers, and to force the greenback and sub-treasury issues, which were supposed lo be drawing democrats from their party to the alliance. The evidence is very strong that some headway was made with this project ut the state convention held in this oity last week. The resolutions do not mention the tariff ini quity exceiit in the following section: We demand equal and fair distribution of the necessary business of taxation on all forms of wealth to be listed at actual value less actual indebtedness. This is a most extraordinary utteranoe. The “necessary business of taxation* is of course the assessment and collection of taxes, and this the alliance propos st 0 distribute equally and fairly. The only way in which this oan be done is the ancient mode of “farming" taxes, under which the right to collect taxes was sold to the highest bidder, who then proceeded to extort his levies from the people. Nothing could be worse than a return to this odiious system, whioh has been abandon ed by every civilized country on the earth. It is declared also that taxation is not only to be retained on the articles now on the dutiable list, but also te be imposed on all forms of wealth. In other words, every article now on the free list must be put on the dutiable list. This is worse than the republican declaration of 1888 in favor of the repeal of the whisky and tobacco taxes rather than the surrender of any part of the tariff taxes. It is the most monstrous proposition ever übmittedto the Amerioan people. It remains to be seen whether men who entered this movement in good faith can thus be sold and delivered by the alliance leaders.

You are in business to make money and you can make it by saving it, in buying your wares of the CHICAGO BARGAIN STORE.

Gov. Campbell in his oanvass over the state of Ohio thisyearhas been most happy in his presentation of object lessons on the tariff for the consideration of his hearers. At Ravenna the other day, he said the first thing he saw when he stepped off the train was the Quaker City oat meal factory. He remembered the tariff on oat meal had been raised 100 per cent by the MoKinley bill for the protection of American labor, and as some of the workmen weie looking out of the windows he thought he might see the happy look on their faces, but the gentleman in the carriage with him said: “Those poor devils hare just had their wages reduced.” He had also noticed a very tall chimney, evidently that of a window gla-s factory, no smoke coming from it. They ha told him there was no smoke because there was no fire. The factory was shut down Heiehe said was a practical illustration of the effect of a r use in the tnriff on labor. He was informed the oat meal faotory would shut do wn a f ter the elec*i. 0n ‘ Combinations had been formed in the oat meal and window glass busine s to increase prices and reduce production, hence the shutting down of those factories. He did not need to come here to tell these people how the tar ff resulted in these interests. They had an object lesson right here that no one could fail to understand Referring to the wool tariff he said last year Charley Foster h id told ihe farmers ip Wyandotte oounty that if they voted the republican ticket they would get 40 cents for their wool. Those farmers are holding on to their clips yet. Ihese fellows are nil going to vote the democratic ticket. In regard to the characterization of the democratic speakers as oalumity croakers he said they would continue to croak until Tuesday week, when they would have more croakers than could be counted. Hundreds are buying the wrought iron school shoe, at the Chicago Bargain Store.

NEEDED LEGISLATION.

Baking Powder Bill Passed by the Minnesota Senate. [St. PanlDispatoh.] The recent newspaper discussion of the dangerous qualities of ammonia comes from the alarming increase of in baking powders. People who absorb it in small quantities from day to day suffer from slow ammonia poisoning. Taken internally in sufficient quantities it eats away the coatings of the stomaoh and intestines and causes death. Slow ammonia poisoning produces various forms of stomach trouble. Not one woman in ten thousand would use an ammonia baking powder if she knew it. Such powders not onlv undermine the health, but Ammonia imparts a sallow and blotched complexion. Following is he bill .recently passed by the Minnesota senate. It’s the danger signal which the law throws out for the protection ot the p ople: A Bill for an Act to Regelate the Traffic in Bakioo Powders. Section I.—Any person who shall knowingly sell or procure the sale, or offer for sal ? of any package ot can of Baking Powder, containing any Ammonia in it, not distinctly, legibly and durably branded, stamped or marked in a conspicuous place with the words in the English language “This Baking Powder contains Ammonia” in letters of great pica, or any letters equivalent thereto in length, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and punished by » fine not less th n S2O or more than t-50; shall be confined in the County ,Ja l not less than ten or more than twenty days or by botii fine and imprisonment, at the discretion of the court Section 2.- The sale or offer for sale of the substance mentioned in the foregoing section in packages not stamped, marked, branded or labelled os therein required, shall be prima-facia evidence of knowledge ts the character of said substance, on the part of the person so selling or offering for sale a d his employer. Section 3.—This act shall be in force or and after its passage. Note.— An incident occurred in the house when the senate bill o <me up for passage, in reference to an amendment pro, osed by Mr. Diment. Mr. Feig said

•‘A FIRM ADHERENCE TO CORRECT PRINCIPLES.”

that if the bill as it came from tbe senate was all right then the amendment was all wrong. The amendment compelling the printing of the word “Ammonia" on the libel oniy effected the Royal Baking Powder, and no wonder they felt the senate bill was a blow at them. i i— m —n Another large shipment of fine cloaks and jackets will be received some time this week Chicago Bargain Stork. A three days session of a delegate convention of the Farmers’ Alliance of thiß state closed at Indianapolis last Friday, Resolut ons favoring the subtroasury plan, demanding the doing *way with free passes by rail roads, calling for prohibition of the manufacture and sale of liquor and demanping equal suffrage for women were passed. An effort was made to have the delegates declare in favor of a third p«rty, but a private poll of the delegates convinced the third party advocates that the majority were op posed to such action and the matter was dropped.

FOOTLIGHT FLASHES.

The net earnings of the Kendals in America last season were about $150,000. P. T. Barnum’s estate is announced to amount $4,279,532, $2,993,933 of which is in real estate. Francis Wilson has ordered a new comic opera from Richard Stahl, composer of “The Sea King.” Statistics show that 678 musicians, 271 artists and 169 actors came from foreign lands to America in 1890. Controversies over Beethoven's ancestry have been set at rest by the discovery of a family history covering 250 years. “Ivanboe” was the first grand opera that ever ran 100 nights in Loudon; but it is a question if “Ivanboe” was a financial success. The leading actor of the Comedie Francaise, M. Mounet Sully, has announced that he will make an American tour iu 1892-93. Tscharkowsky, the Russian composer, will bring a full Russian choir to America next season. A similar enterprise once failed in London. W. S. Gilbert, the famous writer of comic opera librettos, was once a very good lawyer. He was recently made a justice of the peace at Middlesex. Nat Goodwin has paid Augustus Thomas and Sidney Rosenfeld $5,000 in advance for a comedy they are writing for him, aud will give them a large royalty besides. Emma V. Sberidan, late leading woman at the Boston Museum, will be succeeded in that position by Marie Burress, an actress chiefly known through her work with Frank Mayo. Two hundred and twenty-five thousand lire (more than $45,000) has been paid in royalties to Pietro Mascagni, composer of “Cavalierra Rusticana,” for its performance in Italy alone. The “clipping bureaus” get many queer orders, but few queerer than the one sent recently to the New York agency by Edward Remenyi, the violinist, who wanted all the obituaries of himself which were published when be was reported drowned on bis way from India to South Africa. Remenyi wants to know all about the accident and what people esid of him.

FEMININE FANCIES.

If Major MoKinley is elected in Ohio next Tuesday it will be one of the most significant and signa victories in the history of that State.—Monticello Herald. As Ohio has for many many years been claimed by the opposition as a reliably republican state our old friend of the Hearld gives strong evidence that he has lost faiih in the grip of his party,on tl.a r state. We have strong hopes, however t T . at not only Campbell, but tho entire Democratic state and legislative ticket will be triumphant.

‘‘The foreigner pays the duty; you don’t pay it,” McKinley, Foster, Reed and Sherman are just now trying to cram down the throats of vcfcers in Ohio. It has not been long since our own brother Marshall indignantly pretested against the charge that republican ora ors and newspapers practiced thaf fraud upon their hearers and readers.

The Economical Mice of Iceland.

Dr. Henderson, in his Travels, givei uis testimony to the correctness of tin popular belief amongst the natives o( icolaud, of the remarkable instinct of a species of momm, the accounts of which imve been doubted by some naturalists He says: ‘ This animal, which is sup posed by Olafsen and Povelsen (writers on zoology) to be a variation of the wood, or economical mouse, displays a surprising degree of sagacity, both in conveying homo its provisions, and the manner in which it stocks them in the magazine appropriated for that pur pose. In a country, says Mr. Pennant, whore berries are but thinly dispersed, these little animals are obliged to cross rivers to make their distant forages, tin ir return with the booty to the r.iajr a/.i'K s, they are obliged to repais the »tr< am ; of which Mr, Olafsen (OlofvD and Povelsen) gives the following ac count: ‘The parly, wnioh consists o< from six to ten, relect a flat piece ot some light, substance on which ihr-y place the berries on a heap in the mid die; then, by their united force, bring it to the water’s edge, and, after launching it, embark, and place temcelves round the heap, with the heads joined over it, and their backs to the watec, their tails pendant in the stream, serving the purpose of rudders.’ Mr. in his ‘Tour in Iceland,’ ridi--dies the idea of any such process, and says, that every sensible Icelander laughs at the account as fabulous.” Dr. Henderson then goes on to corroborate the statements of Olafsen and Pennant: “Having been apprised of the doubts that were entertained on this subject, befoie setting out on my second excursion I made a point of inquiring of different individuals as to the reality of the account, and lam happy in being able to say, that it is now e.itablistrsd as an important fact in natural history, by the testimony of two eye witnesses o f unquestionable veracity, the clergyman of Driamslak, and Hiidame Heuedictson. of Stiekesholm, botli of whom assured me. time they had seen the expedition performed repeatedly.
