THE German Reichstag is hereafter 60
ing to do its voting by telegraph; and
there is little doubt that We shall soon
have the same process introduced in our
American Legislative bodies. The wires
are to be so arranged that each member
can indicate his vote from his seat. In
front of the seat are two buttons, one in
dicating yes, the other no. a pressure on
the button telegraphs the vote to q circu-
lar table, in font of the Presidents deak,
upon which the names of all the members
are written down, SO that Immediately
after pressing the button each member
can see piece Of paper appear under his
name with his yes or no on 1t. Under
meath this circular table are three other
tables, the.ftst one of which shows inn
mediately the total number of ayes, the
second the total number of noes, and the
third the total number OF all the votes
cast, whereby the former two can be
checked. : A box in another part of the
house at the same time has an arrange
ment in progress similar to that used by
our banks in getting reports OF the sales
of stocks in the New York market,
which issues anarrow slip of paper with
the name OF each individual member and
his vote upon it. 1t is calculated that it
will only take a half minute to count
votes by this method.
