The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1874-05-26

THE N. Y. Erening Mail quotes con-
siderable portion of ''Yarmouth's" letter on
Mayor Havemeyer as part of leading
article on the same subject. The Mail COM
ments as follows:
1t is rare that letters from this city to
the press of the interior contain anything
that is valuable, or much that is true,
about our local politics. The gross mis-
representations and ridiculous blunders
which ale spread broadcast over the country
by correspondents too lazy, or incompetent, to
get veraciouS and interesting news, are among
the most disgraceful features Of American
journalism. Once in while there is an ex-
ceptional letter, which shows knowledge,
care, skill in presenting facts and fine literary
ability. Among this class the best that we
have seen in long time is a letter to the
Portland PRESS, written, as we are trust
worthily informed, by one of the most prom
inent members of the Committee of Seventy,
and doing full justice to the character and
career of the remarkable individual who, now
holds the Office of Mayor of this city.
As we did our best to secure the election
although we opposed the nomination-of
Mr. Havemeyer, we feel an especial regret
that he should have so utterly, wantonly
and-apparently-ma disappointed
the expectations of his best friends and
warmest supporters, but we are obliged to
confess that the PRESS correspondent, ssYar-
mouth" has drawn too faithful sketch.
The truthfulness, force and terseness with
which this indictment is drawn. by man
who knows the Mayor and every turn of our
devious city politics, must be our apology for
giving so much of the above to our readers.
Yarmouth simply expresses in vigorous
language the views of nne-tenths of the old
Committee of Seventy and of those who did
most to elect Mayor Havemeyer; who has
sunk ben cath hostility, to contempt and ridi-
cule. 1t is the saddest instance of the be-

7 CUMULATIVE VoTING.-As high homes have
been entertained in regard to the effect of
cumulative voting upon the publication of our
politics, me copy the following instance from
the Pittsburg Commercial:
'There were seven Directors of corpora
ton in Lancaster county, to elect and the
holders of majority of the stock, suspectipg
nothing of what was going on, gave one vote
for each share of stock to the seven men agreed
upon by themselves The holders of minori-
ty of the stock took the other track and 'cumu-
lated their votes, casting seven votes for one
cious combination of their forces, they were
enabled to give more votes for majority of
Directors than either of the seven men had
who were voted for by the majority of stock
holders. The minority thus captured the
Board and obtained control of the corporation.
To show how this matter was worked, let US
suppose that there were 1000 shares of stock,
and.that the majority held 600 of them. They
voted these 600 shares by giving 600 votes to A,
only 400 shares. divided as follows: The holders
of 100 shares gave seven votes for each share to
H, thus securing him 700 votes; the holder of
another 100 shares did the same for l, giving
him 700 also, and the holder of the other 200
did the same for X and L. Thus H, /, X and
L. representing only 400 shares. had 700 votes
each. while the other seven, representing 600
shares. had but 600 votes and only three of
them could be elected. The minority was thus,
the majority. This is cumulative voting and
minority voting is no better. Cumulative
voting makes 400 superior to 600, and minority
voting makes the minority equal with the ma
jority in cases where there are but two to
elect"
