A Rstirq Machine,

The St. Paul Globe prints this
description of a voting machine
now on exhibition in that city:
A small box like thing with glass
sides that show the machinery in
side, is what the voter sees wher
he approaches the opening to the
little booth in which each voter
must enter TO record lis choice.
This booth is the same rs those
used in the Australian system, and
is necessary to the secresy of the
ballot. The voter approaches,
lifts the lid Of the box, which act
causes a bell to ring, and the voter
finds himself in the presence of an
apparatus very much like the fin
ger board OF type writer.
There before him are the names Of
all the candidates, all those Of each
political party being printed on
paper Of one color.
You press the button Of your
choice and you have voted. The
machine records accurately the
number Of the vote, and also re-
cords the whole number of voters
who have opened the machine.
Repeating is impossible. You
nay push away at the, button f Il
LAY and it viii just as persist
emily keep on recording the same
number. Not until the cove Of
the box has been closed can an
other number be recorded. If a
voter attempts to close the cove Of
and vote again the bell rings and
properly consigns him to the por,
ridge.
When the polls close the face Of
the machine shows The total num-
Der of voters and who have cast
these ballots. Unlock the machine
and the papers inside show just the
number OF votes for each candi>
date. The judges verify the cleo
ton, seal the votes and go home,
or they may hasten to the tele'
arapa oflce % hear the .atGfns

Which Is Opening Up in the Capital of
Mississippi.
A special from jackson, Miss,
ON the 10th inst, says:
jackson has not had a fire to-day
nor a riot, but strangers who did
not understand the situation this
afternoon thought that Hades was
to pay. TIE occasion was the
opening of the first saloon afte,
the two years reign of prohibition.
1t was known that the city author
tiles would grant license to the
Lawrence house, and crowd gath
cred in front Of the saloon, press
ing and squeezing each other in
the manner of voters, waiting for
the polls to open. Allsorts, kinds
and conditions of the city's popula>
ton were waiting to
TAKE SUGAR IN THER'N.
Finally the proprietor telephon-
ed from tie city hall;
SITS all right, Pete, let her 60 "
The doors swung open, and
scores of men who hadn't had a
drink on the square, open and
above board style, for two long,
dreary and desolate years, faced
the counter and named their pizen
with the alacrily Of men who held
winning lottery tickets.
The good news spread like
prairie on fire. and the thirsty
dropped work aad speedily betook
themselves to the spot where lager
flowed and red liquor bubbled.
The colored brother, especially,
regarded it as 4 new emancipation
and the dawning of a new era, AND
were on hand to the extent that
their cash would allow. Every
thing is full, but no trouble has
ensued. The only apparent dan,
ger was that the saloon keepers,
who have just paid 81, 900 license,
will start cunning tor the blind til
gers which have, on the quiet,
DISPENSED the vilest liquors extant
since the town has been dry.

While the sudden change IN the

Mr.. Garrett acted wisely in giving
up the trip.
The plot to capture Mr.. Garrett
recalls a similar scheme of the Ar,
iona cowboys to make a prisoner
ex-President Hayes and General
Sheridan when they were swings
ing around the circle toward the
close Of Mr.. Hayes terms. 1t was
currently reported at the time that
the capture Of the distinguished
travellers was to be attempted while
they were staging that portion OF
the rout between Deming, New
Mexico, and the terminus Of the
Atchlson, Topeka and Santo Fe
railroad, which at the time lad
not been completed. The report OF

When Senator Fair, the bonanza
king OF California, returned from
Washington to San Francisco,
about seven years ago, it was
known that a plot had been formed
to kidnap him and hold him for
rsnsom. He took the lower
California route, and passed safely
through San Simon, however, the
point at which the attack was to
have been made. From there his
c,ptors intended TO take him to
Sonora, thence to the Sierra Mad
res. These mountains for the most
part are inaccessible, SO the Sena-
tors rescue would have been al
most impossible. Why the plot
miscarried has never been learned.
