Soft is reported that Mr. Carlisle IA 90
much responsible as Mr. Randall lor the
re solution of the Committee on Rules,
the effect Of which was to hurl the direct
lax bill in the way of far more important
legislation. If this be true then Mr..
Carlisle deserves TO he blamed as much
as Mr. Randall for this mistake Tho
State
The point Of the whole situation Is
lust the one that IS inserted into con-
gressional legislation so often by the use
of a parliamentary trick. The public
service suffers all the time from the con
slant wranqle over buncOmbe measures.
1t was proposed once in the House to
have two electric buttons on each mem
ber's desk, one for an affirmative vote, the
other for negative vote, so as 10 avoid
the loss Of scores of hours in roll calls.
But the statesmen would not hear OF il.
I hey wanted to retain the prerogative OF
the noble "lilibuster" to block legislation
and play the deuce Icy the organization OF
small minority, and thea they did not
want to be forced to study every ques'
ton. They wanted to see how the big men
would vote and save themselves the
trouble of thinking. The only result
that could be hoped for by the filibusters
who precipitated the deadlock was the
sorry one they obtaine1-a poslpOnement.
In the meantime the opinion is that Mr..
Randall had finger in the pie, and helped
the organized move in his own in
terest to delay the tariff bill and open
the way to big scoop in the Treasury
by setting a precedent that would bring
forth bill to pay back to certain States

A WARNING.

As politicians are often patriots ana
sound party men without being angels
and az there are tales that have become
almost legendary Of how ballots could be
automatically increased or diminished
We sugges, tina, this Is the time for plac'
Ing the Democratic majority on the hrn'
ground of fairness to the end that ihe'e
may not be reproach to the party beSot'
ten in the Illicit Intercourse OF hired
bummers aud anxious candidates
The most honest candidate often runs
the risk Of being so far misrepresented 10y
the hummer element TO get involved IN
one of those smart tricks Of political
iockeying that may win race, but must
inevitably smirch the winner and his
party.
The rule for the primary election re-
quires iha, The voter shall record vote
for one candidate for each one OF all the
offices voted for Therefore, Il lie
names on his ticket do not correspond
with the number Of the offices, the ballot
Is u be thrown ou..
We do not object to any system that
reqrires care and a knowledge Of what
the voter is voting for. But the
point I, in The present case that
a picard should be posted at every pre-
cinct stating The number Of candidates to
be voted for. If this is not done 1t Will
lie in the power Of any unprincipled man
TO find out whom voter intends to vote
for. and If It does no, suit him he may, II
he chooses give him ticket with all the
names on it that the voter favors, bat
short one or two names.
Far be II from rs 70 insinuatc that the
angels would try such thing, but there
might be one or two bummers who are
not quite iledged, and they might mar The
whole harmony OF the Democratic party
II allowed the opportunity to play any
lhimblc-rig game In The primary election.
