THURSDAY, AUG. zg, 1855.

We are back at the Office, hard
at work after our little trip, and
would like to be able to picture
to our readers the wonders we
saw at the Mammoth Cave. We
left here Wednesday at IL A. NJ.
and arrived atsthe Cave Thursday
at 6 P. NJ. and as soon as supper
was over went in the cave with a
party of twenty-four persons and
remained in until IL O'Clock that
night, taking what is called the
short route. The next morning,
Immediately after breakfast we, in
company with the same party,
went in the cave to take the long
route and remained under ground
all day, coming out just at twi-
light. Dinner was sent in and
served on the rocks. There were
Z States represented in our little
party of twenty.six persons and
the ages ranged from 8 to 70
years. The ride on Echo River
was thrilling beyond description
and one could imagine he was On
his way to the "Frowning City,
in "Allan Quartermain's" craft; at
this level we were 800 feet under
ground. We could write column
after column of this wonder of
Kentucky and then the half would
not be told, and you could only
have the faintest conception of it's
wonders and granduers until you
have seen it with your own eyes
trip we would advise every one
to take sometime in life.

Magazine of American His
tory.

The Magazine of American His
tory for August is a model of ele-
gance, and as usual the number is
well filed with admirably writ
ten and valuable papers. DR.. Ev-
erett's Earliest American People"
touches upon a theme'sdear to ev-
cry antiquarian reader, and it is
so presented as to interest alike
the old and the young, the wise
and the unlearned. :" England's
Struggle with the American Col
olies," by DR.. William NJ. Taylor,
a scholarly article of different
character, is one of the prominent
features of the Number. The EN-
inent author traces the events in
England, the needless misunder-
standings, and the crude mistakes
which led to the war of the RevO-
luton, and bestowed upon the col
onies their independence, and he
does it with such skill, intelligence
and power, that fresh life is infus-
ed into the narrative, and one OF
the best condensed accounts of this
part of our history extant is the
result. Hon. j. o. Dicklnan con-
cludes his series Of papers of "The
Last Twelve Days Of Major An
Dire" in this number. j. p. Dunn,
Jr., contributes "The Founding of
Post Vincennes," and Mr.. William
S. Pelletreau writes of "The Phil
Ups Patent in the Highlands" furn-
ishing portraits Of Col. and Mrs.
Roger Morris, and an interesting
map. Mrs. Lambs opening arti-
Gle is a vigorous pen-picture of
the "Career of a Ben;ficent Enter
PRISE one hundred and
four years o1d-"The General
Society of Mechanics and Trades
men," and this delightful paper
is profusely illustrated. A pOr-
ton of the brilliant address of
President Merrill E...Gates of Rut-
gers College, to the class of 1889,
appears in these pages, entitled
"Life and it's Activities-the bear

cles; and an unpublished Wash

The Arizona champion., 1889-01-05

THE present election law OF
Arizona is taken from that of Cali
fornia and is nearly Identical with
it. That it is very defective may
be seen from the wholesale frauds
recently unearthed in the city of
San Francisco at the recount in be-
half of certain candidates for NUM-
cipal offices. In that state there is
strong agitation of the question of
adopting the Australian ballot law,
with such notifications as the cir
cumstances warrant. The object of
this law is to suppress bribery and
when it is properly administered it
comes as near doing so as any law
that human ingenuity has yet de-
vised. This law prescribes the
uniform quality of ballots; their
printing and distribution by the
state; the complete isolation of the
voter when changing or scratching"
his ballot to suit his fancy, and the
tier removal of every kind Of in
auence designed to thwart the free
exercise of the elective franchise.
BY this method the shameful bribery
generally practiced will cease, for
no one will care to buy vote that
cannot be delivered under his eye.
The defects discovered in the Cali
fornia law are equally applicable to
that of Arizona, and it would seem
that the next legislative assembly
could proftably employ portion Of
its time in perfecting an adoption
of the Australian system of voting
to the needs Of this Territory. The
people have the right to expect as
near an honest expression of theil
wishes at the polls as the laws can
give, and they want law that j;
not more easily evaded than com
piled with, and one that will render
ballot-box frauds almost impossible

IT is said that when Jay Gould
is going up or down the stairs of
the IL road he always puts his left
foot on the step first, even if he has
to get out of step to do it. If, by
accident or through thoughtlessness,
no happens to start with the right
foot he is certain to remark it be-
fore reaching the top Of the stairs,
and, if he does, will return and start
over again. Another reported pc
culiarity of Mr.. Gould is his anti
pathy to fair-haired men. There is
not a single blonde clerk in his i'm
mediate employ, and it is said that
he dislikes to do business with men
who have fair hair.
