Ballot Reform.

This is one of the reforms which
must come, for without it our system
of popular government cannot be MAIN
tanned. Every election, especially In
our large cities, shows that until this
reform is secured all other reforms are
impossible of accomplishment. The
control of the election machinery, of
the printing and distributing OF the
ballots. must be taken from the politi-
clans and put into the hands OF the
State. That is, we must take the
power to control our elections away
from the men who have no responsibility
ity and no interest In government save
extravaganza and corruption, and put
il into the hands OF officials who areI
sworn to do their duty. OF what use
is it to try to get honest men nominated
for Office when we leave In the hands
of the political workers the power to-
defeat them at the polls by distributing
fraudulent or defective ballots, or by
making ideals" and "dickers" which
cheat the people OF their willf We
have talked for years about reforming
the primaries and the nominating con-
ventions, but not one particle of pro-.
gress has been made. Under the Mas
sachusetts law any 400 voters, in case
of a candidate for State office. and any
100 voters. In case OF candidate for a
lesser office, by uniting in petition inI
behalf of a candidate OF their choice
can have his name printed upon the
official ballots and have those ballots
distributed at the polls at the public
expense. What more certain way OF
reforming the primaries could be de-
vised than thisp If There were such q
law in New York City there would be
an end to the astonishing spectacle
which there ls so often presented of q
..boss'' setting up a candidate of his
own for Office in spite of all protests,
and frequently electlng him In spite or
all opposition. Under such law both
.bosses" and primaries would in a very
short time lose their present dominance
In our politics.
In fact, there Is scarcely form OF
iniqulty known to our election methods
which a good ballot law would not
eradicate. We should be rid at one
stroke of the assessments upon candi-
dates, OF the bribing and bulldozing OF
voters, of the nomination OF notorious
ly unfit candidates, of IDEALS" and
ssdlckers'' and ''trades'' at the polls.
All these would disappear, for the SIM
pie reason that the machinery of cleo
tions would be taken out of the hands
of irresponsible and often dishonest
men. Such an obvious and Imperative
reform as this cannot be long delayed.

The baggage transportation sys-
tenn of this country is one OF the rail-
road features which elicit especial
wonder and admiration from foreigners
Its efficiency in general is illustrated
by a report just submitted for the past
year by the General Baggage Depart
ment of the Philadelphia and Reading
Railroad. 1t handled IT'S 057 pieces OF
baggage, and. not wlthstandlng the IN
Vulnerable complications incident to the
shipping of baggage, not a single arti'
Gle was lost. Also, during the same
period, S878.40 in money and 1900 ar
ticles were found ON the trains and
turned in to the General Baggage
Office by the train hands. Subse-
quently the owners of $743.74 of the
money and of about half the articles
were found and allowed to reclaim
their goods.

CDR. T. r. ALLISON" says the
London Hospital, 'has been trying the
experiment of living on meal and
water for month. His daily allow.
ance Is one pound of whole meal, made
into cake with distilled water, and
one quart Of water. His account of
his condition after week is cheering.
In the first few days he felt hungry,
but about the fourth day this dlsap-
peared, and he had no longer any crav-
ing for other food His brain was
clear, his lung capacity had Increased
five inches, and both his sight and
hearing had improved. He had lost
seven pounds weight, but seems to
regard this as rather an advantage.
Altogether he feels thoroughly satisfied
with his experiment. 1t is a very
economical one, the wheat for seven
days having cost only eightpence.
This, he says. SIS living on almost q

The Government and the COnstl-
tuition.

ALI the way along our national career
we find the people divided over the
question of Federal authorIty-some
favoring its liberal extension, others
demanding that it be held carefully in
check. The right of the Government
to construct or aid ''internal improve
ments." such as the building OF nation.
al roads, the opening Of waterways,
and the improvement Of navIgable
streams.-to charter national banks.
and carry out other great measures,
has been fought step by step; and for
this reason the later amendments to
the Constitution, to guard as far as
possible against new doubts or con-
ficts, expressly confer upon the Gov
eminent the power to enforce the pro-
visions of such amendments. AS there
are people to-day who believe that the
Government has far exceeded Its true
province, so there are others who be-
lieYe it has not gone far enough.
1t IS suggested, for instance, that the
Government should build ship-canals,
and take charge OF the railroads, OF the
telegraph, and of a variety Of other
great interests. and manage them for the
common benefit of the people. and that,
If it does not possess sufficient power
under the Constitution as 1t stands.
amendments should be adopted giving
it more power.
1t will surprise no one at all familiar
with the subject to be told that the
Government is doing things which.
under the Constitution, it ought not to
do; and, on the other hand, that it is
not doing things which, under the
Constitution it ought to do. And
those who blindly demand an increase
of power would do well to first under.
stand the power 1t actually wields to-
day. That amendments will be adopted
in the course of time cannot be
doubted; for new conditions provoke
new questions. But they are serious
affairs. They should be made with
caution. The person who would offer
a change or addition to the Constitu-
tion to meet every trivial or passing
topic of the day is not safe adviser
of the people.

A RUDE stone cist has been exhumed
In Orphlr, Kirkwall, inside OF which was
found a textile garment supposed to be
woollen. also an amber bead and the
nucleus Of glass one. This is believed
to be the first cist found In Scotland
with a textile garment, supposed to be
for covering the body. and the beads
for ornamenting the covering. This
