AN ELECTORAL CHANGE.

In the discussion of the conceded in
equitable electoral system, the sugges-
ton of a combination of the state and
congressional district plans meets with
a good deal of favor. Under this each
voter will vote for but three electors
two for the state at large and one for his
congressional district. The result would
not then depend upon the vote of two or
three great states, and the inducement
for bribery and fraud would be largely
reduced. The sectional character of the
result would be less marked. Repub-
lican S would have electoral votes in the
South, and the Democrats would have

THE OPIUM HABIT.

If there are, as asserted, millions of
dollars worth of opium smuggled into
this country by way of the British re-
gions on the northern border, there
must be an alarming consumption of it,
1t is agreed that the opium habit is
more perniciOus than drink or tobacco
in any of their forms. 1t wrecks both
mind and body. 1t is drug that shat
tiers the domestic sanctuary more surely
than strong drink, as its use is as COM
mon among women as men. Why do not
the reformatory movements put it upon
their programme and open batteries in
this direction occasionally. Its sale can
be more easily restrained than that of

''If two roads enter town." he con-
tinued, land one is $50 miles long and

do all the business. Then the other road
will cut rates. On the other hand, if
they are allowed to agree upon rates
they can make them so that both roads

REVERSING LAWs OF TRADE.

1t is remembered by some that there
once was a theory embodied in the
adage that competition is the life OF
trade" That was before the trust and
combination era. The object now, in
all the great lines, and some not so
great. is to obviate competition, in order
to make larger profits on less business.
and give the consumer less temptation
to indulge in extravaganza and luxury.
The coal mines shut down to keep up
prices, mills close to prevent flour going
down with wheat, the copper ore deyei-
opment is reduced to keep up the
corners, and so on through all the lines
of industry. The great effort is to de-
wise means to victimiZe the public to
enrich the individual. The docile public
winces trifie at times, but still offers
its back for new burdens.
