PERSONAL.

Mr. Paul du Chaillu is this week tho guest of Mr.
George W. Chllds, at Woouon. near Philadelphia.
william r Minor who died al stamford. Conn.,. sun
day, was Governor of Connecticut from 1856 to 1855
and dI,armed the Irish organizations at the tine Of
the Fenan troubles. He was also ConsulG GeneraI at
Havana from 1854 10 1865.
Now that Mrs. John Chanlers denial Of her alleged
literary partnership with NJ. Catulle Mendes IS pub
shed in the American press. 1t may be OF interest
10 recall the fact THAI the story originally started
here soon after the ouldaesque7 young author went
abroad. The item was CLEANED from the American
press by some Paris new paper man, and et agOing
there; and then returned TO this country by
an enterprising correspondent a brand new bit
of literary news.

awkward and confusing, and that the Aus
tralian system is mongrel foreign" thing
not at all adapted to the free and independent
American citizen. The experience OF Montana
and Connecticut only confirms the results hither-
to attained wherever the ballot idea has
been put into operation in limited way in
the United States.
As is commonly known, the system is to have
a complete and adequate trial in Massachusetts,
at the election next month. Extensive prepa-
rations have been made there to insure its
working smoothly and easily. OF course, a
good deal of preliminary work has been re-
auired and il has been necessary to do it with
out the aid Of experience as guide. Arrange
ments have been fully completed for the re-
ceving of nominations as they are made either
by conventions or otherwise, In accordance
with the terms of the law. All these are re-
ouired to be forwarded to the Secretary of the
Commonwealth on or before October %, and
Immediately thereafter the official ballots must
be made up, printed and distributed to the
941 voting precincts of the State. An i'm
mense variety of details have to be attended
to. Some idea of the work may be gained
from the statement that no fewer than
10 UuSI Db pIIlIcu anu oVHU ""o
over the State, requiring eighteen or twenty
tons of paper. In addition to the ballots there
are elaborate instructions to election officers.
etc. While the new system requires skiful
planning and careful organization at the out
set it is not in reality complicated snd there
is every reason to believe that it will operate
as we'll in Massachusetts, rs in Montana Per-
haps there may be little friction on the first
trial, and some Oversghts in the printing and
distributing of the enormous number of bal
lots required; but the voters and the election
officers will soon become accustomed to the
change. The Massachusetts officials seem to
have provided for all possible contingencies, as
it was obviously their duty to do, in view of
the fact that the result of the experiment there
may have an important bearing on the adop-
tion of the new method elsewhere.
New-York tribune., 1889-10-18

that il could not be concealed even IN tne oi-
ticia reports of the late Administration resa'u-
inc recorded errors of clerks. The pam truVh
is that small army of political drummers ana
workers was thrust into these places WithouC
LnovIedpe or experience, instead OF trained anu
hich1v eficient men who were removed only
becanse they were Republicans. The poht'oai
;ncor,notants have been turned out, and many
> 90 tho trained and efficient clerks have been
bronpbt back. The plain people VIII say py
their votes whether they think that oao
change.
In other departments of the service silhilar
changes have been made. These fail TO please
the Democrats and Mugwumps who were In
vited 70 leave places given them solely as re-
wards for political work. 1t is yet to be as
certained whether the public regards the mat
fer with their eyes. Democrats who do not al
low partisanship to blind them privately admit
that they find various branches of the public
service already more efficient than they were
under the late Administration, and they state
only the truth when they say that the Republi-
cans have a large body of experienced and dis
cinlined men for all posts, while the Democrats
had not. But for what decent reason were the
experienced and competent men turned OUT
1t is for the people to say whether in larger
matters they have not found the Administration
yea ous and faithful in striving to improve the
service In the Postal Service other changes
of general usefulness have been made which
the business community does not forget. Gus
toms regulations and rulings have been ma
teriallv altered for the better defence OF Amerl-
can industries, and the course OF the treasury
Department has been carefully shaped to AVOID
financial disorder The people will say whether
they like the work done. Land regulations
have been modified for the greater delence OF
honest settlers pensions regulations have been
changed to facilitate the settlement of proper
claims. Within little more than SIX months
really important changes have been made IN
nearly every branch of the public service ana
in none more than in the State Department
which has accomplished at Berlin and else
where much for the honor of the country and
the protection Of American interests. when
the plain people come to express their opinions
by their votes, they will show whether these
things diSpease them.

BALLOT REFORM IN PRACTICF

The secret-ballot system has now been tried

Montana law embodies the main features Of
the Australian system, and the accounts of its
workings at the recent election all Indicate
satisfaction with the new method. Both
paIties unite in declaring the Australian sys

and a later account, summing mp the operation
of the law, declared that the system simpliGes
The machinery OF elections and aboliSheS some
of the most Objectionable features Of that in
penc,a uSe-to wit, the ticket pedlers and
b1ngcrs-on" In Connecticut the Secie.- Ballot
law is much less comprehensive, as there is no
provison for the printing Of ballots by the
State. and the late election there was not of
such a nature as to call forth a very large
number Of voters or TO arouse special interest
The trial Of the innovation in that State can
hardly be considered a test of the principle Of
4 secret ballot; but so far as appears the new
law worked smoothly and satisfactorily: there
was no delay in the casting Of the votes, and
even the imperfect Connecticut statute made
bribery and intimidation practically impossible.
The testimony from both these sources is a
complete yindication of the advocates Of the
Australian system in this state and elsewhere,
and is sufficient to put 10 confusion Governor
Hill and all those who think with him that the
plan provided for in the Saxton bill-which we
expect to see introduced in the next Legs-
lature substantially in the form in which ii
was passed by the last one-is cumbersome.

THE CHANGES ~ ADNINISTRATION

1t is the opinion of some politicians who have
been put out of Office, or have not been put into
office, that the elections this fall viii show some
popular dissatisfaction with President Har-
!ison's Administration. That remains to be
seen. The people have something to say about
it, and those who have not been put out Of
Office for incompetence, those who have not been
removed because they sought and used Office
as means of serving party, may not un-
naturally take different view Of the situation
from that taken by disappointed persons of
either party.
For instance, one organ OF the disappointed
Democrats lifts up its voice and walls about
the wholesale change Of railway mail clerks
Most Of the old men, it complains have been
removed or have resigned But the plain
people have a vivid recollection of the sneers
Of satisfaction with which the same so-called
reformers greeted the wholesale removal Of
trained and competent railway mail clerks by
President Cleveland. The plain people have
vivid recollection, too, of the general de-
mcralization of the mail service which fol-
lowed these removals, and which was 50 great
New-York tribune., 1889-10-18

The delegates to the City and County Con-
ventions in Brooklyn met the best expectations
of the members of the party in the nomlna-
tions they made yesterday. BY unanimty
that was as spontaneous as it was gratifying,
Colonel Andrew ID. Baird was again nominated
for Mayor, and the contest this year will be
that of two years ago over again, with TINS
important exception-that Mr.. John j. Clancy,
who as the Labor candidate for Mayor In 1901
polled IL ,688 votes, received the Repubhcan
nomination for Controller last night, and VIII
bring to the support of the Republican tcke'
his undeniable strength among the worklngmeh
of the city. Colonel Baird was beyond douo'
the strongest candidate that the Repubhcahs
could have named. He has not sought the
nomination; but the party almost as one man
has turned to him as its ablest standaid-Dearer
in the coming contest The wave of enthusi-
asm that swept over the convention wheh MS
name was presented by ex-Mayor Schroeder Is
IN augury of the earnest and hopeful feehng
that will be aroused throughout the party oy
the nomination. The nominations IN addltloh
70 those mentioned are equally good. Mr. John
r. Green. in particular, Is an able lawyer ana
n citizen of the highest standing, who ought 70
defeat Mr.. Ridgway Overwhelmingly IN his at
teppt to secure a third term as Distnct-Attor-
new. Both the city and county tickets are
strong in every part. The Republicans OF
BROOKLYN have rarely il ever, opened a cam
paign under more favorable circumstances
