AusTRALIAN nALLor SYSTEM,

Wyoming's first election was held
September l0th. This new State
started by employing the Australian
system OF voting, and practical dem
onstration 81 the efficiency OF this
manner Of carrying on an election was
given near home.
The Australian system has been ex.
planned frequently, but inquiries as to
the details OF the system stig continue.
The plan is not at oil cumbrous. The
room IN which the election is held il
provided with booths. each just large
enough TO enable voter to squeeze
in and prepare his ballot on a shelf
provided. The preparation of the hal
lott is matter Ia which some care
is necessary. The tickets are provided
by the county, and conta n the name
Of every candidate for office, whatever
his politics. The work the voter is
called upon to do is 10 write an Y
mark opposite the names Of such men
As he desires 10 favor. For the clearer
calculation Of this plan. section oi
the BALLOT is given below. The real
ticket, such ms WAS supplied the Wy
oming voter. is large and pretentious
sheet, twenty nine and one-half inches
long and nine inches wide. That sul
piled the Democrats is pink in cole,
As will he seen every facility
offered the voter Of doing ar he pleas,
in regard 10 choosing his candidai,
A blank space is left in each section {"

ASTI-LoTTERY Law.


The anti-lottery bill has passed
both houses Of Congress, and re-
ceived the signature Of the president
The postal authorities are prepared
to enforce ii vigorously, and IL il
therefore important that the public
should understand its provisions.
The bill gives great power TO the
Postmaster General, and il will be
very dangerous for any person to deal
with lottery tickets. II forbids the
carrying in the mail or delivery at
or through any postofiicc or by any
mail carriers of any letter, postal
card or circular concerning any
lottery, or any list Of drawings of
the same. or any lottery ticket or
part thereof, or any check, draft,
bill, money, postal note, or money
order, for the purchase of any
ticket. 1t forbids carrying any
newspaper, circular, phamphlet, or
publication Of any kind containing
any advertisement Of any lottery,
or containing any list of prizes Of
any such lottery. 1t forbids any
person from depositing or causing to
be deposited, or knowingly sending,
or causing to be sent, any such
matter by mail. II provides that
proceedings for violation Of this law
may be instituted either in the dis
trict at which the mailing was done,
or at the place to which it is car
ried to mail or delivery, or at any
place where il is delivered TO the
person addressed. Ii provides for
preventing the delivery Of mail con-
tanning registered funds, or money
orders, addressed to lottery COM
panies or their agents.
The friends of the measure be-
lieve that the lottery company will
make some arr. ngen,nts with the
express companies by means of
which they will be able TO commu-
nicate with the public in a manner
which will be adequate to conduct
their nefarious business. The con-
Stituti"nal lawyers who have found
80 much difficulty in bringing the
bill through will be likely TO raise
further objections if the attempt
should be made to interfere with
what will be called the private bust
ness Of express companies. The
friends of the Lottery Bill insist
that the business Of the express
companies would not more be inter
fercd with by an enactment which
would prevent them from becoming
the agents of lottery companies than
is the business of newspapers inter-
tered with by provisions which pre-
vent them from publishing lottery
advertisements, under the penalty
of being excluded from the mail.
The bill does not prevent news
papers from publishing lottery adj
vcrtisements. provided they are
willing to depend on the express
companies or some other agents
than the United States mail for the
distribution of their circulation.

AN ELEGANT DESIGN.

Artistic Effects Produced in Dressing q
Show Window.
The creative mind is ever reaching out
for new effects. When combined with the
faculty of nice taste, it produces the artist.
An art which has recently grown to much
importance in certain lines of trade, is that
of artistic window trimming. To draw
your attention to certain lines of goods,
and to SO display them with attention to
harmony Of color, beauty of design and
artistic construction, 20 AZ to produce a
striking combination and novel effect, is
one of the most important and attractive
features of the larger stores.
Attention was yesterday drawn to a win
dow Of this kind in the store of one of
Helena's most enterprising frms-Gans
& Klein. Here were seen many eyes di-
rected to an elaborate display of GENTLE
mems shirts, collars and cuffs, % arranged
as to form suspension bridge, on which
could be seen train Of cars.
Cans & Klein promise yet better displays
in the future, when their windows will be
enlarged and the entire store remodeled.

The King Murder Case Appealed
to the State Supreme
Court.
The Supreme Court AMrms the Decision
Of Judge Hunt in the Journal
Mandamus Suit,

A man with several aliases created some
what of disturbance about O'Clock yes
terday morning. II appears that he was en-
deavoring to beat his landlord out of oer-
tain amount of board due. He slipped in
and poked note under the door of his
room, stating that he had gone away; but
unfortunately for his little scheme his eff
fects had been removed to another apart
ment, and the room was now occupied by
the landlord. The latter read the note,
then asked the alias man inside, when he
proceeded to give him q piece Of his mind,
and wound up by smashing him in the nose.
The man broke away and ran down stairs,
when the landlord, Jerry Dewaney, yelled
at the top of his voice, "Stop, thief"'
Special Officer Martin was near by
and Immediately gave chase. But the
alias man was good Splinter and the Of
ficer fin1egy fred couple of shots at him
in hopes of bringing him to a standstill.
But this only had the effect Of accelerating
his speed. The race was kept up we'll over to
Hoback streSt, when the officer was entirely
winded. At this juncture citizen came
out of his yard, and taking in the situation,
secured the officers revolver and kept up
the chase overhauling his man we'll out
towards East Helena. The affair created a
good deal Of excitement and was very
pretty race. No damage and no arrests.

The appearance of John E. MoWade al
Hassan Bey brought forth tumults of ap
plause. He is fine actor and has mag
nifcent voice. The bright and catchy
music, the rich costumes and the appro.
pirate scenic effects added greatly to the
pleasure of the evening. All of the singers
ran smoothly. Said Pasha will be SUNG

prettiest opera of the season and should not
be missed. If the delayed costumes arrive

He Stole Two Horses.

A man named Ben Yoss concluded to take a
trip day or two ago, and in order that he
might get over the ground in good shape,
and having no means at his disposal and
no horse to ride, he stole one from his
brother, but thinking one horse might get
tired, he stole another from Conrad Kius-
grill and lit out for parts unknown. The
officers of the law have been looking for
him since his departure, but his where
abouts is unknown at this writing. Previ-
GUS to his departure he stated that he
thought of going to Utah, but he may be
we'll toward the British possessions by this
time.

Th0 Cemeeery Matter - Siam Pipes Lo-
Gated.
There are only forty acres of the new
cemetery that the city has no title to, it i
understood. When the purchase was made
Mr.. Colbert decided to the city a United
States patent for the ground, and in his
warranty deed guaranteed 600 inches of the
waters of Seven Mile creek, being . water
right taken up by Andrew Glass, as it ap-
pears on the county records in book I'D, -
page 23S, of records of bitches and water
rights. As there ID no water Mr.. Colbert
has not lived up to agreement, and the city
can compel him to place the water ON the
land. But Henry Klein has stated that he
would give $1,000 for the land and many
believe it would be wise to let him have it.
since the ground has proven such failure
for the purpose intended. The city paid
Colbert $4,000 for the ground.
