The New Ballot system.

Tn lIaueIphlh IlInes-
The new ballot system seems to
have worked very well at the town elee-
tions in Connecticut and really to have
secured secrecy II is said that even the
workers could not tell how a man voted,
and to this cause the Democrats ascIibed
their success in carrying several manu-
featuring towns that heretofore have
been strongly Republican. The overseers
could no longer accompany the hands to
the polls to see that they voted for the
tariff, and SO the men voted their own

Raise the opera glass and look upon
the unrivaled charmers on the stage
tonight
The meretricious charms Of many Of
the alleged charmers will not admit Of
critical inspection with a magnifying
glass, physically or morally. Besides
those objections there are histrionic
objections to them on the stage. Many
OF them can neither sing, speak,
nor act They are put up and made up
simply to be ogled and stared at. Hence
there is nothing else to be done but Il

THE anonymous letter from Dover in

THE New York Herald states tho case
admirably thus:
The Democratic motto is ''If you want
TO sell you must also buy" That opens
every market in the werld and gives
American producers fair chance. The
Republican motto is, You must try to
sell. but you must refuse TO buy" We
ask, therefore, What can the Pan Amer
ican Congress accomplish unless the Re
publicans eat their own policyg
1t is not improbable that the Republi-
cans viii ''eat their own policy" Every
statesman in the Republican party pre-.
vious to the last campaign hal declared
that the tariff should be reduced. Last
week Senator Sherman declared that hs
had objected to a revision OF the tariff
when it was proposed ''in the line Of fire.,
trade. AS free trade is an impossibility
under the immense deb and expenses o.
the government, the reason is obviousl,
specious and disingenuous. If Senate,
Sherman is in favor Of any revision a
all he is in favor Of the Mills bill, 70
that is the most moderate revision tina
was ever proposed and was not in tn
line of free trade. Il is not unlikel
that the Republican party will offer bil
for the revision Of the tariff which vii
take a larger per cent. from the revenu
than the Mills bill proposed. The posi
tion the party attempts to hold in prC
hibiting trade by tariff laws and promot

THE Morning News is not qualified by
temper, wisdom, amiability or non-par-
tisanship to manage the collectors Office.
The Morning News is intensely partisan
and all Of its comments are necessarily
unjust and unfair. This is readily seen
when all Of its energies are expended on
the collectors because the ignorant and
neglectful Republica ans do not pay their
taxes The tax collectors are about the
city now collecting property taxes. But
the Republican saints and howlers might
have paid their taxes during the nine
months Of the GEAR, when the collectors
were Il their offices all day long, and
when the Daily Republican was advising
the callous and neglectful Republicans to
60 and pay their poll taxes to avoid this
very predicament. The News not so wise
or SO candid as the Daily Republican, has
preferred to wait till that time
was passed and then raise al
annual and disingenuous howl Three
months ago the Morning News was re-
wiling the collectors because they did noi
90 out to collect taxes; now, when the.
are out, the Morning News howls becaus,

lie has a married sister, who lives few
miles in the country, who inherits tie
farm and estate which the mother only
held by courtesy, and we sent a messen-
ger to find out what kind of an outfit she
desired and whether or not she would
assume payment of the bill, having
been told by friends that there
was nothing outside of what
now belongs to her. This was Friday
afternoon. She would not talk in regard
TO the matter but said she would think OF
it and send word what to do in the even.

never heard from her, and after
waiting till Saturday noon we
informed those interested that she
would have to assure payment

was to blame for not giving the matter the
attention which she promised, but she
no doubt supposed we would go on with
the work and she would be relieved OF
any responsibility. This is plain state
