A HINT TO THE FARMERS.

We believe the farmers of this

hundred and sixty acre farm
should not depend entirely on his
hay crop fora return for his labor.
If he would raise some wheat,
eome barley and oats, a few sheep.

fine colt every summer. have two
or three acres set aside for garden
truck and attend to it, he would
make twice the money that he
makes now.
Speaking of raising horses, we
believe that the time has come
when breeders should devote
themselves to breeding good road
sters and let up on the big Nor
mans. A trim built traveller that
will weigh eleven or twelve hun

THE AUSTRALIAN BALLOT.

The Democratic papers OF the
State are affecting alarm lest an
Australian ballot law will not be
passed. The Eureka Sentinel
says that no milk and cider modi-
fication will be tolerated. It is
right in fact, but not In meaning. No
milk and cider modification will
be tolerated ty tho Republican
Legislature. The best features OF
all the systems now in operation
will be combiLed, and Nevada
will have ballot law granting
absolute secrecy to the voter,
even IL it is necessary to virtually
disfranchise the man who cannot
read. Nobody will be sorry II the
ignoramus is punished for his
ignorance with the opportunities
for learning that are afforded, and
the CONSTITUTE nal objection can be
easily removed.
1t looks as though the Demo
Gratis hope there will be no ballot
law passed, and it is pretty certain
that they are preparing to oppose
any measure that is suggested by
the Republicans; but whether
they are sincere or not they will
see such a law placed on the stat
ute books by the Republican Leg
islature, and it will be the best
and closest system that can be de-
vised. Enterprise.
The disfranchisment of tie
class who are not able to read, is
the key note to the measure. AS
q rule the man who is intelligent
enough to read will not debase his
manhood by selling his vote.
Men claim that the Australian
ballot will still enable the sack
bearer to purchase votes. They
will find very few votes for sale
when a law is on our statues
books, providing for the absolute
acknowledgements of the class who
cannot read.
If the people it effects find it a
hardship, they can go to school |
before the next election and learn
to read and write the English |
language.
