The BALTIMORE Herald of Sunday last, with
characteristic enterprise, published the full text
Of the Australian Ballot Law, with cuts show
ing the mode of voting under that system, and
much other valuable information in connec-
ton Herewith. This is the law or something
like it, that it is proposed to have passed by the
Maryland Legislature, provided the bosses will
permit it. Referring editorially to the subject
the Herald says $50 fragrant has the abuse of
the election franchise become that intelligent
and honest men of all parties have Joined hands
in the common demand for reform. That this
reform cannot be accomplished except through
the enactment of more stringent registration
and election laws than we now enjoy, has been
formally recognized in the platforms of both
the Democratic and Republican parties. Both
have substantially obligated themselves TO the
passage of bill similar in all essential respects
to the Australian Ballot Law"
Our NETGHBoR of the Journal did us an UNI
wonted honor last week. He copied seven sep
arate editorials from our columns and no doubt
his readers were pleased to see something in his
columns that had some snap in il. Any
person with half an eve can see our neighbor's
object in publishing these articles at this time.
But We do not think he can succeed in exciting
the prejudice Of anybody against us because of
our course in the late campaign. When THE
UxION espouses a cause il does it in a way that
all may know exactly how it stands. But
with the Journal il is different. II has been
noticed many times before tina. when lively
campaign is in progress the editor of that paper
marches quietly along i'm the rear and that he
is never in the front when there is any real
fighting to be done. But 10 as soon as the
election is over and the battle has been won,
then it is that you see our esteemed neighbor
waving his banner and shouting to his imagi-
nary army to come on and put the enemy to
flight when there is no enemy anywhere to be
seen. The people of this county have become
accustomed to the Journals mode Of warfare
and they nod their heads with knowing wink
whenever they see REPETITION of it. 1t has
been common remark ofhis party friends that
the editor of the Journal was never known to
make an aggressive fight for the standard
bearers of his party, but that as soon as the
battle is over and the victory won, he is there
toclaim the credit of the same. Heis welcome
to all the credit he can get by pursuing course
like this.
