THE REFORM BILL KILLED.
STRUCK DOWN BY THE GOVERNOR

MR. HILLS PAINFUL EFFORT TO JUSTIFY HIS
COURSE ON THE MEASURE
Albany. June l1.-Assembly bill No. S13, entl-
tied can act to secure more fully the independence
of electors and the secrecy Of the ballot has been
vetoed by Governor Hill. The memorandum ac-
companyng the veto states that all measures look
ing to pure ballot arc entitled to favorable con-
sderation. The only power conferred on the
Legislature by the Constitution, IN regulating the
exercise of the right Of suffrage is TO dlsfranchse
certain convicts and to provide for the ascer1anng
of citizens entitled to vote, c.. to enact regstra
tion laws This bill, ostensibly to prevent 1raud'
embarrasses binders and impedes an elector In the
exercise of the right accorded by fundamental
law, and is an infringement OF his constituted
rights Many law precedents are cited to snow
that acts that do these things are unconstitutional
The bill plainly hinders and impedes an elector
from voting for whom he pleases, and dlscrim-
mates between candidates. 1t impedes the elector
in his right of selecting between candidates, right
reserved to the voter down to the moment when he
deposits his ballot The party which did not
appear at the last election, or, if appearing did
not DOLL three per cent of the entire vote, cannot
nominate candidate by convention such party
must secure the ballots by presenting the names OF
certain number of qualified electors, the Secre-
tary of State and county clerks to have absolute
power in determining such.
A fundamental objection to the bill, says Mr..
HILL is that it gives formal recognition only to
candidates nominated by the prescribed methods.
The bill invests ballot clerks with specific powers
almost sure to be abused This objection is
fatal Five minutes is too short a time TO allow
voters TO consider the ballots in booth before
voting The bill provides for the compulsive dis
closure OF votes by ilhterate electors.
Many other object lns are given, and opinions
by Nelson j. Waterbury, Henry ii. Anderson,
Frederick r. Coudert and John Il. Burrill are cited
to prove the unconstitutionality of the bill.

THE LEGISLATURE.
Washington, June IL Special).-The proceedings OF
Congress to-day can hardly be handled by topics
There no question considered which called for
more than passing mention, yet several interesting
matters were brought up. Senator Gray's speech on
the Fisheries question, In open executive session. was
not of these. 1t was so monotonous ana dreary,
as read from printed proofsheets that 1t would proba-
bly, have sent Secretary Bayad himself to sleep, and
would undoubtedly have given something Ike st.
yuss dance 10 the able assistant secretary who had
prepared the material which Mr. Gray stumbled and
boggled over to such feeble purpose Mr.. Fry was
not present to prod the Senator from Delaware with
any suggestive questions. MI Edmunds early showed
bis opinion Of the speech by retiring to the rooms OF
the Committee Judiciary, and there was no one left
who cared to give any especial attention to the Ad-
mnistration Senator's essay.
The Democrats OF the House showed their usual
want of judgment and their ilimitable capacity for
laundering this morning. by their action on the pension
question. After the call of States completed, Mr..
GrOsvenor of Ohio sent up to the clerks desk TO be
read a resolution setting aside time for the consd-
Grafton Of pension measures and stating In preamble
how this character of business had been neglected by
Democrats.
Mr.. Springer and Mr.. Hemphll objected to the
reading of the preamble The Speaker decided that
the resolution only, and not tho preamble, was prfvi-
legged. Mr. Grosvenor withdrew the resolution for
the tme-being, and simply asked leave to print the
preamble.
Constitutional Rogers, Of Arkansas, objected, and
that gave Mr.. Grosvenor his opportunity. 1t was
District day and when the first strict bill was called
up Mr. Grosvcnor took the floor and claimed his hour,
and had read in part of his time, the preamble In dis
pute, which was most effective arraignment OF the
Democratic party for Its course in regard to pension
matters
