DUTY OF EVERY CITIZEN.

The books of registration will again
be opened tomorrow at every polling
place in Minneapolis, and if your name
is not already enrolled see that 1t IS put
there to-day. One thing should be
borne constantly in mind: Unless your
name is on the b oks when the polls
open on Nov. your vote is lost, unless
YOU can show it was accidentally omit
ted. No chances of this kind must be
taken. Your name must go on to-mor-
row. a 1t is your duty to maze TINS
sure and to see that your neighbors ana
friends are registered. Business men
should make it a point to register at
time that will not interfere with labor
ing men, who are compelled to take
either the noon or the supper hour.
Several points must be borne III mind:
You are not required to produce your
naturalization papers. Your oath,
stating when and where they were
taken out, is sufficient.
If you are foreign-bOrn and your
father took out his second papers while
you were still minor, you are full
citizen and may register and vote,
Four months residence in the state
and ten days in the precinct, counting
up to election day, will permit you to
vote.
Your age is counted up to election
day. If you will be twenty-One years
of age on or before Nov. 6, you are of
legal age.
Ladies NAV vote for members of the
school board and for county superin-
tendent of schools, but they are re-
CURED to register. Their votes count
just as much as their husbands, lovers
or fathers.
Bear these points in mind and go to
the polls tomorrow. The registration
is as important as the voting itself.

Mayor Ames is not a candidate and
needs no defense; probably does not
wish one; but it is only fair to state
that some of the papers are first mis-
quoting him and then criticiSing their
own misquotation. What he said at the
Washington rink in substance was that
he commended wOrkingmen in fighting
for their rights, rebelling against
tyranny and striking against reductions:
but the best way to right their wrongs
was through the ballot box. Not much
anarchy in that speech.

Cipher for the Typewriter.

An Englishman has invented an in
genious method of producing cipher or
secret communication by mechanical
means. 1t is adapted for use on type
writer's or similar writing machines
where the type or corresponding index
scale, dial or pointer is capable Of being
moved or adjusted. The type writing
machines to be used for the purpose are
made in duplicates, SO that the two index
scales correspond with each other in tho
arrangement of their characters. but dif
fer from any other pair of machines.
Since the index scale is adjustable, it
may be shifted in two corresponding
machines, SO that one or more of the
characters is moved out of it's normal po-
sition, and, in consequence, when the op-
orator strikes a certain letter ON the key
board, another totally different will be
printed Thus he can continue and write
out an entire letter, which, to the unini-
tiated, viii seem like nothing more than
q confused jumble of characters.
To decipher whatever has been written
it is only necessary for the Individual
who has the clew to shift the index scale
in the opposite direction from that used
by the original operator, and then, by
striking ON the keyboard the characters
of the secret communication the correct
message with be printed. Stationer.

Time Reckoning at Puget Sound,

According to Mr.. NJ. Eells' account of
''The Indians of Puget Sound in The
American Antiquarian, the Inequalities
divide the year into thirteen moons, for
each of which they have separate names;
also for the waxing and waning of the
moon. The daytime is divided into
dawn, sunrise, forenoon, noon, after
noon, sunset and dusk, while the night
has the single division of midnight.
These Indians obtained the idea of Sum
day from another tribe, before the
English came, and after that met on
Sunday. sang, danced, prayed and tried
to purify themselves and throw away
their bad and make their hearts good.
They also married wives on that day.
Among the Twanas Sunday means
holy day, and the other days are day
past, two days past, etc., except Satur-
day, which means alongside" that is,

Attention Given to Ba,looning.

Ballconing is receiving great deal of
attention from the naval and military
authorities both in England and France
as q valuable aid Ia land and marine
movements. During the recent naval
maneuvers in the defense Of Toulon, a
accommodating balloon was used with
good effect day and night by the aid of
electricity, and now an experiment is
being made with navigable aerial ship
for the same purpose. In England bal
looming has also attracted attention, es-
pecially in connection with the new for
nation of troops for attacking purposes
Almost daily ascents are made at the
training camp of Lydd for the purposes
Of photography and observation. On one
occasion a moving balloon was made the
target of a party of gunners working a
twelve pound Armstrong gun, with the
result of its being blown to pieces after
rather more than dozen shots. So

rival balloons is likely to be realized dur

The Freight Conductor. Dnt,as


The freight conductor is simply high
grade of brakeman. His work is almost
wholly supervisory and clerical, and so,
after several years service, he becomes
more sober and business like in his bear
ing, the responsibilities of his position
being sufficient to effect this change; but
he generally retains his sympathies with
his old associates who have become sub
ordinates His duties are to keep the
record. of the train, the time, numbers Of
cars, etc.; to see that the brakemen regu-
late the speed when necessary. and to
keep general watch. The calculations
necessary to make seventy-6ve mile
trip and get over the line without vast
ing time are often considerable, and an
inexperienced conductor can easily keep
himself in worry for the whole trip.
Often he cannot go more than ten miles
after making way for a passenger train
before another overtakes him, SO that
he must spend a good share of his time
sitting in his caboose with the time table
in one hand and his watch in the other,
calculating where and when to side
track the train.
On single track roads perplexities of
this kind are generally more numerous
than on double lines, because trains both
in front and behind must be guarded
against.and because the regulations are
frequently modified by telegrapIic in
structions from headquarters. A mis-
take in reading these instructions, which
are written in pencil, often by slovenly
penman, and on tissue paper, may, and
occasionally does, cause disastrous col
lsion, These duties of conductors are
especially characteristic Of trains that
must keep out of the way of passenger
trains, so that in this particular line it
will be seen that the passenger conductor
has much the easier berth. The freight
and "work train" conductor must really
be a better calculator, in many ways.

When the Great sahib Comes

Till you are in the east you cannot
realize the necessity of a 'sforerunner"
to clear the way for great man. There
is no pavement or side path for foot peo-
pie to walk on, and they scatter all over
the road, thronging it tfickly, SO that it
would be impossible to move quickly
unless the way Were cleared. Your
syces, therefore, or a mounted Sepoy
orderly, speed ahead in front of your
carriage shouting without cessing: go
wayfarer! Q merchant escape from the
roadi o seller of cloth, escaped Make
the road clear, o people. The great
sallib is coming! Make his way clearr'
thus clearing q passage through tho
crowd, which closes again the moment
you have passed.
Children are often lifted bodily out OF
the way, while absent minded persons,
who have their thoughts in the clouds
and their heads in a blanket are apt to
find themselves of sudden sitting by the
roadside and wondering how they came
ere.-Cornhill Magazine.

The Eucning Post recently mention
ed as objective to the proposed plan Of
choosing President by popular vote
the long uncertainty as to the result OF
an election which 1t would cause. point
ing out that t'the day after election this
year it was certain that Harrison had
received a majority of the electoral
votes, while it will be weeks before il
will be known, or could possibly be
known, whether he leads in the popu-
lar vote also" Several correspondents
have written US regarding this matter
in the following vein: ''As it il not
clear to me and many others why the
approximate pluralities of each State
would not be known as definitely and
as quickly as now were the electoral
college abolished, and the general re-
suit be plain matter of elementary
arithmetic, hope you will give some
mere explicit proof of the weight OF
your objection to popular plurality,
as distinguished from State plurali-
ties" The best answer to this request
is the following statement which ap-
peared in the last issue of the Calves
ton NeDs received at this Office, pub
lished fortnight after the election:
"The official returns of the election In
Texas are slow in coming in, and it is
probable that the vote of many coun-
ties will not he correctly given until
the Nea0s can arrange the returns or
the Legislature counts the vote for
Governor. The vote for electors il
counted the third Monday in this

pend upon the count in Texas, and vel
