WORRINGMEN AND BALLOT REFORM

WORRINGMEN AND BALLOT REFORM.
The Saxton Ballot Reform bill which Gov
ernor Hill vetoed is rightly to be regarded as
a measure in the interests of the labOring man.
Democratic newspapers undertook to prove the
contrary while the bill was pending in the
Legislature and so did the Governor in his
veto message. But the laborng man was not
convinced by their arguments. He held that if
the bill became a law he would be afforded the
opportunity, which in many districts OF the
State he does not now enjoy, Of gratifying an
honorlble ambition for public office. So long
as the existing state of things lasts laboring
man cannot meet the expenses of canvass.
The fat assessments upon candidates which the
bosses levy. ostensibly for printing tickets
and incidental OUTLAWS, are far in excess OF his
means, just as they are often far in excess OF
legitimate means. In fact, so far as running
for Imblic office is concerned, he is practically
disfianchised. The SaXton blu meant the sup
preston OF bribery. 1t meant the suppression
of intimidation. 1t meant the breaking-up OF
the assessment evil.
Well, the Democratic members Of the Legis-
latuse voted solidy against this non partisan
mea sure and the Governor killed it. What
him On mature reflection that the Governor
and his fellow Democrats were right and that
he made mistake in desiring the passage Of
the bin? Clearly not. In the last issue of the
recognized organ of the Knights of Labor,
Terence V. Powderly, General Master Work
man of that order has this to say:
We cannot compel obedience TO the Constitution OF
PENNSYLVANIA while mon can be browbeaten at the
polls and compelled TO vote as the corporation boss,
tho political boss and the boss dictates. What
wo require is a secret ballot one by which the man
who is partially free may become IN truth freeman.
How many Of the citizens Of Pennsylvania Will raise
taeir hands with mine when they read this and pledge
themselves not TO ask for another measure OF reform
al the coming OF the Legislature, except the
passage Of some such system OF ballot reform as the
Australian systeml
Our readers are aware that the Saxton bill
contained the essential features of the Aus
tralian system. If it had gone upon the stat
ute book there would have been distinct gain
for the cause of genuine reform. But Governor
Hill would not allow it 10 become law because
the Democratic bosses were opposed 10 it,
Those pothouse leaders who are in politics for
what they can get out Of it saw in the bill a
fatal blow ut their own power in the campaigns.

1l5 per cent In this case it is proposed to
abandon the site altogether rather than submit
70 what smacks 80 of extortion. AS the estimate
of $4,000 was made by Tax Commissioner
Coleman, an expert in real-estate values with
few, if any, superiors, it is fair to assume that
this sum was not far out of the way. The
Board of Education will plainly be justified in
resisting to the utmost all attempts to compel it
to pay outrageous prices for the land which it
needs for the benefit of the public.

DISTRESSING POPULAR INTELLIGENCE.

From The Lincoln (Neb) State Journal.
The New-York Tribune says that "one cannot
throw a stone I'm New-lOrk now without hitting a
Democrat who knew all along that It. diotic last

Colonel H. H. Haskell. chairman OF the Pro-
hibitory Committee during the recent campaign
in Massachusetts, has written letter stating that
the Prohibitonists of that State do not purpose
TO run candidates of their own this fall. That is
where the ProhibitionstS of Massachusetts, differ
from the third party men of this State. The New
York Prohibitionists have determined TO run
tickets in all our counties, although they realize
that TO do so is to aid the Democracy, the per-
sstent foe of temperance reform.

Hence naturally they told their tool in the
Executive Chamber that he must withhold his
signature.
What Mr.. Powderly says will meet with
hearty response in the hearts Of his brethren
all over this State. They demand ballot re-
form, and because they demand it they have
no use for David b. Hill or the Democracy
which stands between them and their wishes

And now it is Missouri catfish weighing
eighty pounds A respectable colored woman
Of that State, whose reputation for veracity is
unimpcached. but who has cultivated the habit of
telling fish stories has something TO say about
the fish, The other day, while engaged in wash
ing some linen on the banks of a stream that
runs through Louisiana, Mo-, it occurred TO her
that without pausing in her work, she might
have little fun fishing. Accordingly she baited
hook and threw it into the water, tying the
shore end OF the line to one of her ankles She
caught the big catfish but, according TO dispatch
sent TO The St. Louis Globe. Democrat two
mems united strength was necessary to save the
woman from watery grave, for the fish was
rapidly pulling her into the river" More likely
it took " two mems united strength" not to speak
of the coored womans, to manufacture this
pleasing narrative.

And leading each his valiant rout.
They vowed they would surround him.

And numbered all his days.

And issued proclamation
