NATIONAL SUPERVISION.
Something Must Be Done to Insure Free
Elections in the South.

Something Must Be Done to Insure Free
Elections in the South.
The unsatisfactory results of elections
for Congressman and Presidential elect
ors in the Southern States are so notOri-
Gus as to have led to a general demand
for National supervision. 1t is a de-
mand the propriety of which has been
acknowledged by at least two of the
great Democratic newspapers of the
South. Accordingly, two measures have
been framed, one or both of which will
be submitted to Congress at an early
date.
Senator Sherman's bill, as indicated
by himself, will ordain that all elections
wherein the choice of Congressman or of
Presidential electors is concerned shall
be under National control, and this alb
solutely and without any degree of local
option. Representative Houk's bill will
provide that whenever not less than one
hundred citizens resident in any Con-
gressional district and entitled to vote
shall make application, under oath,
to the clerk of a United States
court or to a United States Com
missioner that they do not be-
lieve that fair regis tration or cleo
ton, or either of them, can be had in
said district without Federal interven-
ton, and if the clerk or commissioner
shall verify such application, then such
election or registration, or both, shall be
conducted under supervision of officers
appointed in the manner prescribed by
Mr.. Houk's bill.
Each measure has its advantages and
it's disadvantages. For Senator Sher-
mans bill it may be said that it operates
at all National elections and in every
place; that it is not open to the charge of
local prejudice. Against it may be said
that it entails the operation Of a costly
and cumbersome electoral machinery in
districts where fraud or violence are un-
heard of, as well as in districts where
both notoriously are rife. For Mr..
Houk's bill it may be said that it ap-
plies the remedy only where the disease
exists; that where elections are free and
fair the Federal supervision will not be
obtruded; that where there is danger of
fraud or force it will be interposed on
behalf of fairness and freedom. Against
it may be said that it leaves ''the mice
to bell the eat" that the work of pro-
curing one hundred names, each signed
by oath and verified by the
clerk of court or by a commits
sioner, either of whom may live
hundred miles from some of the
would-be applicants in the thinly-popu-
lated and extensive Congressional dis
tricts of Texas, Louisiana or Missis-
sippi, may be work of great difficulty;

An vote, once numerous, has fallen to

A YOUNG man by the name Of Wentz,
whose father lived near the peach
Orchard" in Gettysburg, where the bat
tie ragged the most furiously the second
day on Sickles' left flank, went South
before the war, and when it broke out
he donned the gray. Through the irony
of fate the young man stood during the
battle of Gettysburg with his battery in
his fathers yard. Similar was the case
of Culp, a nephew of the owner of Culp's
hill. He went South before the war,
ioined the Confederates and came North
to die on Culp's hill, just outside the
village of Gettysburg, where he was
born.

"Come, I'm going now"
Uncle Aaron picked up his hat and fol-
lowed him. The young fellow stepped into
sort of a side corridor and said: "We'll

bow: "Good evenin'. would like to speak

The noise of the city comes up to my
house-top like the buzzing of 10000 swarms
of bees and the city grows stranger and
stranger as l Try to comprehend it all 1t
is now more than week that 1 have been
wandering through it, and find it more in
teresting every day of my stay. The streets
of the city are so narrow that no wheeled
vehicle can go through them, and .Jerusa-
lem is more like a vast catacomb than a
town. Many of the streets are Vaulted
over, and you will often pass for half
mile through what might be termed a sub
terranean cavern lighted by openings from
the top and pierced at the sides with cave
like stores. The smallest business shops
in the world are in Jerusalem, and a great
many Of the stores are no bigger than an
ordinary dry goods box. They have no
windows and the only light they get comes
from the front. I stopped this afternoon
before shoe shop, and out of curiosity
took its measurements. 1t was hole in
the wall cut out with base four feet above
the cobble-stone street. A rude stone two
feet high was the step by which the shoe
maker crawled into it, and it was Just three
feet wide, five feet high and eight feet
deep. 1t was as dark as a pocket, and the
shoemaker squatted in the entrance with a
board on his lap, and he filled it completely.
He was working at pair Of rough Bedouin
shoes, and the owner of these squatted
cross-legged in his bare feet while the
cobbler waxed his thread, and in pulling it
was careful to move his hands toward the
street and back into the shop. The place
was so small that, had he pulled his thread
IN the ordinary way, he would have barked
his elbows against the walls There are
hundreds of such shops in Jerusalem, and
the average business place is more like
b. 1k vault than any thing else. Next to
this shoe-shop there was Jerusalem
restaurant 1t was an oval hole cut into
the hill twelve feet high, eight feet wide.
and forty feet deep At the front was the
cooking stove of Jerusalem, consisting of
a rude slab CT limestone, with holes bored
into the top as big around as a workman's
dinner bucket, and with other holes pierc-
ing these from the sides A few inches
from the top of each hole was a rude iron
grating and upon this the charcoal was
laid, and by the draft which came in from
below the cooking was done. The slab
was mounted on cord-wood posts and it had
five 'fre-places. At the back a rough table
without cloth was set for the guests, and
the only chairs were little stools a foot
high and about a foot square, the seats of
which were Of woven cords.-F. G. Car

Uncle Aaron paid his money, took the

In the course of time she came upon the

breath hard and looked at her. Yes, she
was charming, no doubt about that-and
charming not only on account of her pretty
face, but charming with bird-like sauci-
ness that was piquant to all her hearers.
The old man looked and listened, studying
with acunning very foreign to his nature,
made up his mind that he would win her over
bya strategem. At the end of the firstact he
turned to gentleman seated at his left and
asked: "Can you tell me, sir, how body
could get to speak to one of them there,
afore they leave the theater2"
The young fellow stared, but answered:
