The adOOtiOn of the Australian hal

The adoption of the Australian bal
lot system in the United States is re-
ceiving hearty endorsement from the
Eastern press. Among the many edi.
torials on the subject, the following
from the Bangor, Maine, News, is pithy
and to the point. "The Australian bal
lot sytem teaches the patriotism of the
lead pencil. 1t denies that to scratch
some robber from ticket is disgrace
to voter. 1t tells the people to turn
from the machine and make their own
ticket their own way. 1t breaks the
slave whip of party and emancipates
the masses from the rings. 1t takes
the power from the ring lords and puts
it within the reach of the peasantry of
politics."

The Irish patriots, Dillon and o. Brien
have forfeited their bail and sailed for
this country. They were plainly ar
rested on mere trumped up charge to
prevent their coming here to solicit aid
for their countrymen who are threaten
ed with hunger and starvation. If the
English government has the hardihood
to exact their bail it will be paid by the
National League. If there was ever a
case OF justifiable bail-jumping, this
was seemingly that instance. As it APP
pears from the published accounts, the
British government coolly and deliber-
ately interfered to prevent the solicita-
ton of aid for people threatened with
pinching want. A worse exhibition of
calculating cruelty can scarcely be inn
agined. That civilized government
can be guilty Of such an act well nigh
passes belief. But the English rule of
of Ireland is II despotism. And it

The republican party prides itself on
the fact that it has at all times redeem
ed the pledges it has made the people.
The republican party in public conven-
ton pledged itself to give the North
one senator. The people both Of the
North and South look to the redemp-
ton of that pledge. Broken promises
and bad faith are bad foundations to
rest the supremacy and unity of the
party upon. 1t is encouraging to note,
however, that in both the North and
South the tone of the4press is in favor
of redeeming that pledge.

The November number of Subjects
of the Day, an English periodical,
contains an appeal from Gladstone to
the tory house leaders, in which he
expresses strong desire that the tory
party undertake to pass the home rule
bill, because, he says, that party can
do it more easily and more rapidly
than can the liberals. He asks why
they should continue to deny to Ireland
the thing she seeks from them, namely,
self government, central in that it
should he carried on in Dublin, but
local in that its power would be con-
fined to purely Irish affairs, and its &C.

latures in the empire, be subject to the

For the past week President Harri-

circle, through the Mississippi valley
states. Large and appreciative crowds
greet the Chief Executive of the Ma

exhibited in the fact that no matter
how partisan and violent the press or
people may become during party
struggles, that they never fail to honor
the Nations Chief on all due occasions
by glorious demonstrations.

Idaho of to-day Is not what she will
be ten years hence. Then Il population
of half a million will be found, where
a scant hundred thousand now have
their homes. If he who makes two
blades of grass grow where one grew
before is public benefactor, the men
who are to make the great arid wastes
of the new state bloom like the rose
have debt that mankind cannot repay.
It was urged when the people of
Idaho were knocking at the doors of
the union that the waters from her
streams must be turned on those arid
wastes, and nature would then smile
In luXuriant vegetation. But so long
rs Idaho was territory she was help
less. Private capital would not be in
terested in vast projects for irrigation,
the general government could or would
not aid, and the territorial COVER lent
was not worth thinking of. Outside
Of the rich fields of the PalOuse country
that extended into Idaho, and the fruit
district on the Snake river, the terri
tory was uninviting. Statehood came.
Private enterprise invested over
quarter of u million in one irrigation
pr oject in Boise valley alone. When
the arid lands, now worth nothing,
are turned over to the state by the
general government, making the pri-
vate capital both safe and profitable,
vast areas of bOunteous acres will bear
their crops, and Idaho will enters race
with her sister states, in which she will
astOnish even her hackers and friends.
Her mines, too, are but an earnest of
what they are to be. The Occur
d'Alene, with its numberless prospects
and rich lodges of mineral, is destined
to be the great mining region of the
Northwest

Much has been said and written re-
garding the origin Of the bowie knife.
The fact is that Rein P. Bowie. not
James, conceived the idea of the knife.
The invention was the result Of an acci-
dent. Col. Rein p. Bowie was a planter
in Opelousas, La While hunting wild
cattle he attacked a young steer. which
in throwing up its head struck his hunt
ing knife in such way as To knock it
through his hand, making ali ugly cut
between the thumb and the forc:iayer.
On returning from the hunt he reD sired
to the blacksmith shop on his plantation
determined to have knife which r-olld
be protection against such accidents.
Picking up an old file he ordered the
blacksmith to make knife Of it having
a cross piece betwixt hilt and blade, so
that it would be impossible to- bc entire
" driven through q mans hand. In
this way did the bowie knife originate,
and it was never intended for other than
a hunting knife; bat james Bowie I'M
proved the original weapon. and brought
his own knife SO prominently into notice
by the use he made Of it in personal en-
counters that the improved weapon be
came known as the bowie knife.-New
York Ledger. f

Another addition to the list Of recently
invented life saving devices is the shoul-
der line throwing gun. invented by Capt.
Darcy Irving, of the English royal navy.
The invention consists of a shoulder gun,
having the cop Or coil Of line. suspended
in case, carried under the breech Of the
gun. A rod is inserted in the barrel, the
fore end of the rod being connected with
the end of the Enc. which is in the center
Of the cop. The line il IA yards long,
and the charge Of powder used is two
drams. Upon the gun being fired at a
high elevation the rod is projected mp
ward and forward. carrying the line trail
ing after it. The object III, Of course, to
land the line over The ship Or other object,
the rod dropping behind it. By this
means a rope can be made fast to the tail
end Of the limo by the succoring party and
be hauled on board by those in distress.
