kicked and bit, tearing chunks of flesh

covered with blood, but continued the
battle as desperately as ever, despite all

THE AUSTRALIAN BALLOT,

The State of Massachusetts,, at the
recent election held on the 9th of
November, voted under the new law
based on the above system, and a
gentleman recently from that State
says it worked very well, and all
parties were pleased with it. In a
lew comments on it, the New York
Herald says:
" 1t was the quietest, the purest, the
most dignified election that this com
inonwealth ever knew
So our Boston correspondent reports of
The election in Massachusetts yesterday.
1t was due to the successful working of
she new voting system.
This success is of far more interest and
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1889-11-27

importance to the nation than the result |
of the election.
Ballot reform is the issue, the great
need of the day. The so-called Austria
liam system has been advocated as the
best remedy yet devised for the proven
ton of corruption at the polls.
Its friends have claimed for it SIM
plicity, independence of the voter, purity
of the ballot. Its enemies have de-
nounced it as cumbersome, complicated,
impracticable. Governor Hill defeated
the reform in New York on these
grounds and the pretension that it was
unconstitutional.
Massachusetts wisely decided to try
the plan. The experiment has proved
complete success. Enthusiastic reports
in its favor come from all parts of the
commonwealth. Its enemies have been
completely routed.
This success cannot fail to bear good
fruit throughout the country. New
| York and other States must now follow
the lead of Massachusetts in enacting a
similar law for securing honest, indie
pendent voting.
| Governor Hill's veto will henceforth be
powerless to defeat the great reform In
this State.
Some of our readers may ask,
''what is the Australian ballot sys-
tem?" It can be stated in very few
words. The voter retires alone to
some unoccupied compartment Of
the polling place and there, in pri-
vate and without delay, indicates
the name of each candidate for
whom he intends to vote by making
a cross, the center of which shall be
contained within the space opposite
the name of such candidate. He then
folds the voting paper and immedi-
ately delivers it so folded to the pre-
siding officer, who must, without IN
folding the same, openly deposit 1t
in the ballot-box, and the voter then
quits the polling booth.
We have adopted this system in
part, by law which was passed by
the Legislature in 1888. It does
not, however, provide for the secret
ballot. This was thrown out, as was
the case in the Connecticut law, and
row the people in that State call fol
the enactment of this the most i'm
portant part of the reform. Oul
new law has not yet been tested
indeed very few except those who
were in the Legislature, know any
thing about its provisions. Il
would be we'll if a full synopsis of il
were compiled and published.

THE NEWSPAPER CRITIC.
A Mistake He Commits Whenever l
 Writes to the Editor.

A Mistake Hos Commits Whenever He Writes to the Editor.
 It has long been remarked, says the New York Tribune, that when man writes to newspaper making an explanation or denial of some thing that has appeared in the paper that he invariably begins by de- claring that his .attention has been calledn to the article in question. This is the form : "Editor of The Jimcrack-Dear Sir: My attention having been called to your unjust criticism of my action in shooting Jim Spoopendyke's dog, have to say in reply that you are an unmitigated liar, and that the dog killed one of my hens and parked at me through the picket fence" And so forth. But he never sees it himself, never -his attention has to be called.
 Now, the fact of the matter is, as every body knows, that this man sat up all night, waiting for the paper, knowing that it would have the double pleasure of seeing his name in print and writing letter to the editor. When the boy brought the pa- per in the early morning as the night-stars began to dim, thtsman was lurking lust in- side the gate waiting for him. And there. amid the morning dews, and by the uncer- tain light of the last lingering fire-fy, or among the winter snows and by the cold beams of the waning, horned moon, he read the offending article. This is how his atten- tion is usually called
 Of course, we could not ask the letter. writer to tell the whole truth in the matter. It would not be necessary for him to be. gin his epistle like this: ssEditor Tuning fork-Dear Sir: Meeting your delivery boy outside the gate this morning, I seized the paper feverishly. Hastily scratching a match on the pavement eagerly read your lying and scoun6rely article about my vote on the new sewer" This is not necessary Let him say simply and with dignity that he read the article, and considers the editor an unhung villain. All details concern ing how he made it's acquaintance are un, necessary. }!

TALE or A CLOCK.
1t Brings to Light tho Story of a Das
 tors Love for Hen Fafher

1t Brings to Light tho Story of a Daugh-
 tors Love for HeP Father.
 The most unique and one of the most val uable clocks probably in this city, says the Philadelphia Record, is owned by Dr. J. Newton Walker. The tlme-piec originally cost $1 900 and was purchased in France by the grandfather of the present owner over 100 years ago. 1t is a production of the lat ter part of the Louis XVI. period. The pe- culiarity of the style of it's finish, together with the subject portrayed in it's decoration, forms representative type of the art of that age when every thing that contained the slightest semblance to classicism was fash ionable. As work of art it is invaluable as showing the growth of rich design during the age following the palmer and sterner handicraft of the ages of Louis XIV. and Louis XV
 The clock weighs nearly 15O pounds, and is IS inches in height and 15 inches in breadth. It is made of Parian marble and bronze, with several brass figures and gilt mounting. This work of art stands on four lions paws of brass. The clock proper rests beneath @ marble pediment, having a dial of scarce 6 inches in diameter, on which two gilt-mounted brass hands rotate. Near the base of the dial are two smaller dials to mark the days of the week and month, and also the time of tides according to full, half and quarter moons. The clock-work is partially tmbedded in the marble pediment above. The latter Is an ingenious piece of artistic workmanship. It is a fdeze-like affair, with representations of the principal deiEes of 0recian mythology.
 Most interesting, however, is the super structure of bronze, copper and brass, which contains an historical scene from the last stage of the French revolution during the reign of terror. The scene is a sub terranean prison, beautifully worked in bronze and copper. A Girondist of bronze has been imprisoned to die of starvation His feet are chained to two huge stones represented in brass, while on each of his wrists are attached light chains fastened to several weights. Seated near him is 8 bronze figure of beautiful girl, his daughter, who is allowed to see hih once a day during his imprisonment.
 Her position is such as to infer that he had just receive nourishment from her, Lizards and serpepts-in brass-are repre- sented as creeping and crawling among the crevices of the rocks out of wh ch the prison is cut At the far end of the prison beyond the bars of small window is the face of the spy appointed by the prison keepers to ascertain how it was the prison CT was able to prolong his life SO long be- yond the time usually allowed for death by starvation. As the story thus illustrated relates, the daughter gave sustenance to her father, to which was added the nourish- ment obtained from reptiles and lizards that he killed from time to time Death by the guinotine followed the revelation portrayed in this scene.
