New York Letter to Detroit rribunel

New York Letter to Detroit Tribunel
day or two ago | was In Delmonico's
when the youngest of the Astors entered and
took his luncheon. His solemnity and sad
ness of mein were striking. He kept his
eyes fixed religiously on the ground as he
walked across the cafe, selected a distant
and secluded table, turned his back upon
the people, aud ate with an air of gentle and
mournful self abnegation. He is the heir to
hundred or two of millions. and is probably
the most desirable pdrG in New York. No
one seemed to know him and the waiter who
attended to his wants was quite careless and
indifferent. Had he known that it was the
heir of the Astors he was waiting upon he
would probably have jumped five feet in the
air with alacrity. Before this particular
Astor had finished his luncheon his cousin
William Waldorf Astor, also drifted in and
sat down near the door, His face had the
same preternaturally grave and solemn look.
do not suppose that the ex-minister to
Italy is more than thirty-fve or six years of
age, and he has magnificent physique, but
the general effect after hasty look at his
face is that of man who has had a stormy
life and is nearing his forty-eighth or fiftieth
year. he, too, was exceedingly simple in
the matter OF fare. He drank a CUP of tea
with his luncheon, and when he had finished
ne took an Old book from the pocket of his
oyercoat and sat reading it quietly for half
an hour. Then he paid his bill, got up and
drlfted out. Neither of the two Astors
knew Of the others presence. Probably the
two men together will represent two hundred
millions of dollars.
followed Mr.. Astor out of the place, and
as we stopped at the corner to allow car to
pass he stepped hastily past me and made a
profound bow to . man across the street.
The man nodded in return. 1t was greet
ing between father and son, but it might
have been the salntation of one ambassador
to another. The portly form of the elder
Astor was clad in black. His face was as
heavily scanned as that of tragedian. and
he walked with slow and ponderous tread.
There was heavy band Of crepe on his hat
He passed mournfully along the street and
strobe slowly up toward his house at Fifth
avenue and Thirty-third street.

Baby and Dog in the Wilderness

lNOW iOih NOIiusJ
A private letter from Fort Supply, In the
Indian Territory, relates pathetic story of
the wanderings In the wilderness of a mere
baby with only little dog for its faithful
guide and companion. Some IL miles from
the fort lives, on ranch, a woman who sup
plies the post with dairy products. She had
three small children. The second of these. a
wee, brown-eyed, fair-haired baby of two
years, had little dog who was her insepa-
rabie companion. One day neither could be
found. The anxious mother locked up her
two other children, and, getting cowboy to
accompany her, started forth on horseback
TO search for the infant wanderer. All day
long she secured the country, finding no
trace. A searching party from the post met
with no better success. Mrs. Gilman. the
wife OF one OF the officers, was, however, SO
strongly impressed with a conviction that
to her entreaties, another party was organ
lied and again set forth to continue the
quest. This time there were $50 men riding
In all directions. On the fifth day of the
search detachment eJpied the little dog
crawling out from under cliff above tiny
stream. They went to it, and there, lying on
the ground. found the poor baby. Its little
bruised and swollen feet had wandered full
Is miles from home. The poor: faithful dog
had chung to his playfel0w all the time and
had led her to the water. Tracing back the
trail over which these small travellers had
wandereds 1t appeared that they had gone
where no foot OF man could tread. In some
places they must have fallen over lodges and
rolled down declivities, and they had crawl
ed along precipices where the steadest head
might have grown dizzy.

lot, His surroundings are not calculated to
promote thoughtfulness and calm delibera-
ton. Under the Australian system the
voter goes into an apartment by himself and
prepares his ballot In the fifth place UNI
der the Australian system the voter is In no
danger of being tricked into voting for
candidate he does not intend to by spit
tickets as he is under the present system.
These are the prominent advantages OF The
Australian system. What are the disadvan-
tages? 1t Is urged in the first place that the
new system costs more that the old. Sup
pose it does. That would be very slight
objection If it secured the advantages emu
merated above. But its actual cost would be
less, though the cost to the State might be
more inasmuch as the State would have to
pay for the ballots, which are now paid for
by candidates and party committees. In the
second place it is urged that the system is SO
complicated that it would lead to endless
mistakes But the system is at work In
England, and number of cities in this coun-
try have tried 1t, and SC far as we
have observed, there has been no seri-
GUS trouble from mistakes. In the
third place 1t Is urged that this system
abridges the freedom Of the voter. to declare
his political convictions inasmuch as 1t for
bids him to display his ballot. That objec-
ton is puerile The voter has abundant OPP
portunities left him to declare his political
convictions. He can tell how he voted If he
wants to. The Australian system simply
leaves it optional with him to tell or not to
tell as he sees fit. The present system vir-
tually compels him to tell 1t is the present
system that abridges the voters freedom by
compelling him to disclose how he votes
whether he wants to or not. These are, we
think, all the objections that have been
urged up to date. The public can Judge
whether they outweigh the probable ad-
yantages

The New York Press makes strong ap.
peal to President-elect Harrison to take his
Secretary Of the Treasury from New York
New York. 1t says, sis the great financial
center of the country, and will some day be.
come the great financial center of the world
IL is more sensitive to any changes in the
financial policy Of the government than any
other city. The Secretary of the Treasury
should therefore be a New York mans
man, in short, who is closely identified with
the business of this city, and thoroughly in
accord with the vast financial interests Of the
nation as centralized in its metropolis" II
says further that to leave New York out Of
the Cabinet is to jeopardize the success Of
the Republican party in 1892. New York
undoubtedly has strong claims for Cabinet
position, and especially for the Secretaryship
Of the Treasury. President-elect Harrison
Is not unmindful of these claims. But the
quarrelling among the New York factions is
making 1t difficult for him to recognize them.
III the New York Republicans could harmon
lie their views appeals of the kind made by
the New York Press would be superfiuous.
But just at present the outlook for such har--
mony is not brilliant.

OF course the attempt of the Democrats to
let in New Mexico is simply for the purpose
OF offsetting to some extent the gain to the
Republicans that will come from the adj
mission Of other territories. Utah
would be the territory selected were 1t not
for its Mormanism, because Utah has large
population and would be entitled to con-
siderable number Of representatives and
electoral votes. But the Democrats dare not
affront the moral sense of the country by a
proposition to admit that territory and there
fore select New Mexico. New Mexico is
hardly more fit to become State than
Utah. In 1880 its total population was
but little over 100000 and considerable
per cent Of that was Indian. Its population
is also an ignorant and brutal one. 1t is
utterly unfit to become State The Demo-
Gratis would never think of admitting it were
they not after something to balance Southern
Dakota which they do not dare to keep GU,
any longer. New Mexico can be depended
upon to do it, for its population is of the
character to ensure it to the Democracy.

The Express opposes the Looney ballot
bill on the ground that 1t would create more
evils than 1t would cure. That is a valid OBJ
lection IL 1t be well founded. But let us see
about that. There can be no doubt but it
win reduce bribery, If not completely eradi-
cate 1t. 1t stands to reason that people will
not be so ready to pay out money for votes
when they cannot tell whether they get what
they pay for as when they can be sure on
that point. Under the present system it is
possible to know by observation whether the
goods are delivered or not. Under the Austria
liam system the only evidence the vote buyer
can have that he has got what he paid for is
the word of the man bought. which would be
pretty poor evidence to spend money on. In
the second place there can be no doubt that
the Australian system would reduce intimi-
dation. Intimidation cannot be successfully
practiced without the means exists of find
ing out how the electors vote. That knowl
edge, or ability to get it. is absolutely essen
tial. Under the present system that knowl-
edge can easily be got, under the Australian
system 1t could not be obtained. In the third
place, under the Australian system the ex-
penses of the candidates would be greatly
reduced. He would not have to pay for bal
lots or for ballot distributors, and thus the
poor man would be placed on an equality

coming SO large that the poor man cannot

Tue Australian system makes voting more
impressive and more deliberate and in this
way tends to promote conscientiousness at
the polls. Under the present system the
voter goes into crowded and noisy ward
room, and is jostled until he deposits his hal

legislature will see the end of the district
