ST. PAUL, Jan. 6.-1he 500 has made
a cut which brings passenger rates to the
east down to a level with the rate from
Chicago. In other words, the rate from
from st, Paul and Minneapolis to Chicago
Is entirely eliminated, and tickets to east.
ern points reached by the 500 line are the
same Is from Chicago. The first move
was by the Burlington, which issued y
tariff meeting the last reduction of theSoo
lime. This rate, which goes into effect
January 0, is $22.6O tirst-class and $2O.40
.second-class to Boston and $27.50 first
class to New York and $21 se~cond-class.
The rate to other eastern points WINS re-
duced accordingly. In less than two
hours after the Burlington rate sheet was
published the 500 line had out a new
sheet, quoting rates equal to those from
Chicago. This makes the rate to Boston
$40 frst-class and $18.40 second class.

In regard to ballot reform Gov. Hill in
his message holds that it is %unconstitu-
tional to require an elector to vote for the
candidate of his choice by marking upon
the exclusively official ballot a cross op-
posite the name of such candidate, and
prohibiting him from voting In any other
manner. This provision %concededly dis
franchises one entire class Of voters, to-
wit, those who are unable to read and
write. 1t establishes an educational
publication not authorized by the consti-
tuition. In the governors opinion 1t is
unconstitutional to require an elector to
vote an exclusively official ballot contain
ing the names of all the candidates nom
mated. He states that he has consulted
several able jurists and that all agree
with him on these points, and In con-
clusion he says:
"An exclusively official ballot, whether
desirable or vicious, may Of course be Sc
cured by an amendment of the constitu-
ton, but until that has been accomplish
ed 1t Is submitted that it cannot be adopt
ed in the state"
The governor pays his respects to those
who have assailed him as an opponent Of
"ballot reform" in the following passage
"The cause of true reform Is nor pro-
NOTED by loud declaration or by unseen
~ protestations of attachments on the
part of its professed friends. Overzeal-
business becomes suspicious in such
cases and invites the conclusion that par
tisan advantage or cheap reputation is the
object sought. rather than sincere ankle
ty for the public veal"
