PURE ELECTIONS.

Representative LODGE, of Massachu-
sets, proposes to introduce the Aus
traIian system into the federal election
law, and has accordingly prepared a
bill to that effect, but which will
scarcely meet the approval of congress,
because of its non-partisan features.
While we question the propriety of any
sort of federal election law, yet we must
say that Mr.. LODGES bill is nearer
approach to what federal law should
be than anything that has yet been pro-
posed. 1t relates exclusively to the
election of members of congress. viii oh
is the only election that congress has
the constitutional power to regulate,
and provides that the judge of any
United States district court shall place
the next election in that district under
the federal act when 500 voters in any
congressional district shall petition
for it. The judge is required to APP
point two registers for each polling
precinct, one from the party having the
highest and one from the party having
the next highest number of votes at the
preceding presidential election. These
registers shall make list of voters,
and at a series of meetings shall COM
plete and correct the list, closing it not
less than ten days before the election.
The Judge shall also appoint two in
spectorS in the same impartial manner,
who shall conduct the elections. The
votes are then to be cast on the Aus
tralian plan, and it is made misde-
meanor for any voter to disclose, or for
a person to endeavor to induce voter
to disclose, how he voted. In cases of
blind OF illiterate persons the inspectors
are empowered to aid the voter in pre-
pairing his ticket, but it is made an
offense, punishable with fine, for
an inspector to disclose how the
person voted. While the bill en-
bodies all the essential features
of fairness and purity, we are con-
fident that it will be rejected by the Re-
publican majority in congress; or, if
anything is adopted, something of a
more partisan character will be substi-
tuted. Most Of the states having already
adopted the Australian system, the
ucCGSSlly lUl lllO 1ODUL Jill 10 lul GUY
obYiated. Then it will also occur to the
Republican members of congress that
the Republican party will be more
likely to lose under the operations of
such a law in the South than the DEM
ocrats. The Republicans have the
largest number of illiterate voters in
that section, who are apt to be deferred
from voting under this law because
of the formidable operation of prepar-
ing and casting ballot.
Still, if the discussion of the LODGE
bill in congress will awaken the whole
country to the necessity for adopting
the Australian plan, or some similar
system whereby elections can be puri-
fed, it will have served useful pur-
pose. The perpetuity of republican III
stitutions in this country depends upon
the publication of the ballot; and all
good citizens, irrespective of par y, will
unite i'll their support of any measure
that has this end in view. Both the
boodler and his trade must oe extin-

faced the Prince of Wales. Count Won
Moltke and Count Waldersee were also
present. During the banquet Emperor
William toasted the Prince of W ales in
the most complimentary manner. He eX-
pressed thanks for the reception given
him i'll England, and declared that both
the army and navy were proud because
the queen had created him an admiral
of the fleet that bad made England'S
greatness. He was pleased to see a
representative of the British army in
the uniform of the regiment named
after Butcher, who, with the Duke of
Wellington, mingled German and Brit
ish blood on the field of battle. He
drank to the continuance of the good
relations between the two nations, and
hoped that their fleets and armies
might still cooperate in the cause of
peace. The Prince of Wales made his
reply in German, thanking the emperor
for The compliments paid him. He said
he had already telegraphed Queen Vic
toria an account of the brilliant recep-
ton accorded him, including mention of
the splendid bearing of her regiment.
He said he was always pleased to visit
Berlin. and trusted that he would have
fresh opportunities to meet the en-
peror, both here and in Great Britain.
He then drank to the welfare of the en-
perOr and his empire.

THE EVERYDAY DARLING.
She is neither a beauty nor genius,
And no one would call her wise:

she Is nelIu0T DGdtty hui SCuluS,
And no one would call her wise;
In a crowd of other women
She would draw no strangers eyes.
Even we who love her are puzzled
To say where her preciousuess lies.
She is just an every -dayidarling;
In that her preciousness lies.
She is sorry when others are sorry,
SO sweetly one likes to be sad;
And if people around her are merry,
She is almost gladder than glad.
Her sympathy is the sWiftest,
The truest a heart ever had.
She is Just all everyday darling.
The dearest that hearts ever had.
Her hands are so white and little.
1t seems as if it were wrong
They should ever work for moment,
And vet they are quick and strong.
II any dear one needs helping.
She will work the whole day long;
The precious everyday darling,
Every day and all day long.
She is loyal as knights were loyal,
In the DAYS when no knights lied,
And for sake of love or of honor.
If it need be. a true knight died;
But she dreams not she is Drawer
Than the woman by her side.
This precious everyday darling,
Who makes sunshine at our side.
Ah. envy her, Beauty and Genius,
And women the world calls wise;
The utmost of all your triumphs
Would be empty in her eyes
ITO love and be loved is her kingdom)
In this her happiness lies.
God bless her, the everyday darling.
In this her preciousneSs lies.

WALES MEETS HIS NEPHEW.
| The English Heir Apparent Tests
the Kaiser's Hospitality.

BERLIN, March 21.-The Prince of
Wales arrived here this morning. he
was received at the railway station by
the emperor, Empress Frederick and
her daughters, and a number of princes
of the reigning families of the German
empire. A guard of honor was also at
the station. When the prince alighted
from the train, the English national
anthem was played by the band. The
emperor and Prince of Wales entered
carriage and were driven to the castle.
They were escorted by detachment of
cavalry. The emperor was attired
in the uniform of general of English
dragons, while the Prince of Wales
wore the uniform of German general.
A large crowd assembled along the
route from the station to the castle and
warmly cheered the emperor and the
prince. A banquet was given at the
schloss this evening. The emperor
took in Princess Frederick Charles,
while the Prince of Wales took in the
empress. Prince George escorted the

FATAL TO DEMOCRACY.
Commoners Refuse to Abolish the
House of Lords,

House of Lords.
LONDON, March 21.-In the house Of
commons this evening Sir James Fer
gussOn, under foreign secretary, stated
that modus vivendi had been established
with regard to the Newfoundland fish,
cries, which provided that French lob
ster factories in existence in 1889
might continue this season. By the
terms of the agreement manufact-
cries could only be established by the
joint consent Of British and French
commanders. Mr.. Labouchere moved
the abolition Of hereditary representa-
tives in parliament. Democracy, he
said, was now reality, and hereditary
peers were fatal and in eternal antagon-
ism to democracy. The people would
repudiate the idea that hundreds of men
were born with the privilege of legislat-
ing as a class. The house had before it
the spectacle Of men excluded from
jockey clubs and race courses being al
lowed to legislate upon national affairs.
Llwellyn Jones seconded the motion
ana division was taken, esulting in its
rejection by vote of POI to 139.

GOSSIP OF THE DAY.

The action of the Republicans Of the
ways and means committee in sticking
tax of a cent and half pound on
lead ores is making good deal of
trouble for good many sincere pro-
tectiOnists at this stage of the game,
says Washington correspondent. A.
r. Myers, of Kansas City, presipent Of
the Consolidated Smelling and Refining
Company of that town, has been here
fore several days, appealing to the Re-
publlcans of the ways and means COM
mittee to save his institution from de-
struction. The Kansas City CONSOLE
dated Smelling and Refining company
is the largest institution of the kind in
the world. Mr.. Meyers says
that if the Mckinley tariff bill
becomes a law his company
will be forced to suspend ope-
rations Immediately. He says that the
law is simply prohibitory so far as the
importation of lead ore is concerned,
and that there is no way out of it. Nc
Kinley, of course, pretends to feel very
sore, but he understands his business.
He understands that Mr.. Blaine, Mr..
Elkins. Mr.. Window and several others
of his most influential friends have
enormous lead mines in Colorado,
whose output would be advanced about
80 per cent by prohibitory auty being
put on Mexican ores. Acting as usual
his fancy and most appropriate role of
a little tin man with a string, Mckinley
has insisted upon reporting his ore
schedule, and the lead barons of the
West will have their way for few years
more.
