MEN who undertake temperance re
forms will find valuable object lesson
in the study of the canvass which termi-
mated with the special election at st.
ClairSville on Tuesday. No abuse was
INDUCED in by the opponents of the re-
peal of the anti-salOon ordinance, nor any
wild cutlery made against men who use
or deal i'll Intoxicating liquors; but, in
stead, men were appealed to, for the sake
of the rising generation, to assist in keep
ing the temptation of open saloons out of
the way of boys and young men. The
reason and common sense and sober
judgment of men We're appealed to, in
stead of their passions, and 10 unkind
word spoken of any one. The result was
a more substantial victory than the most
sanguine anti-salOon man could have
hoped for three months ago.
TO Mr.. James NJ. ReeS much of the
credit of this splendid victory is due
Since the question of repeal was submit
ted he has labored with zeal and fidelity
and rare good Judgment, steadying the
lines and making ''the crooked places
straight" and with the skill of born
leader enforcing charity toward his OppO
nents. The tact displayed by him in the
management of the canvass is the sub
ject Of general remark.

How They Vote in Greece.
From The Letctston Journal.

"Any man in Greece can be candida to
for any Office" said DR.. Constantine; land
when man announces himself as a candi-
date, the government must provide ballot
box for him. II ten men announce them
selves as candidates for mayor, a separate
box is set up for each candidate and every
voter must vote in each of the ten boxes"
"Then each candidate would get the same
number of votes, l should think"
THAT is possible, but never knew it to
happen. Let me explain a little further
eve vote with black and waite balls.
Each ballot box is divided into black and
white compartment with a funnel in the
middle. Every voter is given white balls
and black balls, and putting his hand down
in the funnel, drops them as he chooses. A
white ball is for, and black ball against
man. If the citizen wishes to vote for Mr..
A, and for him only, he drops a white ball
into his box and black balls lnto the other
nine there are tea candidates), or he can
vote for two of the candidates-or for the
whole ten if he chooses, his vote being
really of no account in that case, of course.
The man who has most white balls in his
box is elected. When two representatives
are to be elected, the man having the next
highest number of white balls gets the
second place and so on"

his original idea of the hole here, as from a
distance one appears approaching a vast
hole in the earth. The country has weird
appearance, and one can we'll imagine
almost anything. There is something
uncanny about the place, as a river runs
into it and disappears, so the Indians think
in short, sinks, and that is the end of 1t.
Where it goes they do not care or think, but
it flows into this region and stops. and, of
course, there is something very mysterious
about it.
The Indians will tell you that the sink has
no bottom, and it is true enough that the
actual bottom has not been discovered. A
vast deposit of mud, the accumulation Of
centuries, lies here and will probably in
time fill up the sink so that water will not
stand there. In riding along the foot hill
country of the Sierra Madres, about twenty
miles west Of San Bernardino county, one
sees curious sink or depression just below
and to the west of Riverside kThe Southern
Pacific railroad runs along its bed, and
from far away looks like some uncanny
monster breathing fire and smoke from its
nostrils, creeping along in Slough Of
DeSpond
Lake Elsinore is a singular depression,
though not below the sea level, and to the
east is still another that was in all prob
ability once filed with water. Another,
not below the sea level. lies to the east and
Inc "FlCer nas crossed singular ory laKe
between Murrietta and San Jacinto. Here
the rocks that were once washed by
waves are still standing, jagged, point
ing upward-monuments of the old shore
line.
As to the exact value of these depressions
below the sea level time and careful exami-
nation alone can determine, but the ques-
ton is certainly one of peculiar interest. If
| a patient were living in the San Felipe sink
| far below the sea level and desired a radical
change be could in less than a day attain
