LOOKS LIKE SANTA CLAUS.
A Pen Portrait of Claus spreckels, the Sugar
King.


From the New York Worid.5
"Claus Spreckels," said friend Of hS yester-
day, '1ooks SO much like the conventional idea
of Santa Claus, the Christmas saint, that no
one ought to be surprised at his being named
CLAUS The old sugar king has a full white
beard rosy cheeks and luxuriant snowy hair.
He Is even as benevolent in quiet way as his
Christmas namesake is on large scale, and his
family and employees are devoted to him. MIR.
Spreckels knows the sugar business from the
cane field to the refined product. When the
refinery was being built near the foot Of Reed
street in Philadelphia, at a cost of more than
81 OO0OO0 quantity Of the most expensive ma
chinery in the plant was put in wrong. and
when Mr.. Spreckels saw 1t he recognized the
error at q glance.
"As a practical machinist he leaped into the
excavation, had the whole mass of iron and
steel yanked out and personally superintended
its proper erection. Few millionaire operators
in any business know Its ins and outs so thor
oughly as he."

POwDERLY FOR BALLOT REFORM.
The Labor Leader Earnestly Favors the
Australian System of Voting.

SCRANTON. January New Years Day is
the golden milestone from which many q salu-
tary reform starts anew. Prominent among
the movements that are likely to make head
way in the year of grace 1890 is ballot reform.
1t has taken firm hold on the minds of the
people, and the most intelligent wonder why
some such system as the Australian ballot law
was not devised and adopted in the United
States long since.
an earnest advocate of the Australian ballot
system, thinks this good time to direct the
attention Of the working people of the country
the subject which is published here, in which
he discusses this great question very thor
oughly and makes clear It's advantages over the
present system. The popular feeling in favor
Of the proposed ballot reform is growing
stronger every day.

THE condition of affairs in the Philadel-
phia Mayors office is considered by the Ledger
as making Shakespeare's lines about man
dressed in little brief authority" playing
such fantastic tricks "as make the angels
weep" with prophetic character. But if
Shakespeare could have foreseen the pranks of
the Philadelphia Mayor he wouldnot have con-
sidered them as liable to make the angels weep
unless with laughter. Ii the lives were pro-
phetIc they would have shown the result pro.
duced to be that of horse-laughter.
