issued an appeal from that city in
pamphlet form 10 his co-laborers, urg-
ing the formation of a protective COM
pany to accumulate porters' savings and
establish homes or club houses IN St.
Louis, Chicago, Kansas City, Denver,
San Francisco and New York. There is
something omnIous in this call, and the

ing over helpless people for long
time, in their individual capacity. They
have been regular autoorats, without an
organization, and there is no telling
what they will be when they become or
ganized. The people have become used
to what they get on q Pullman car and
can kinder stand it, but they will shake
in their boots when they hear that the
porters are going to organize.

The Remarkable Time of a Mile in Thirty
Three Seconds on a Bicycle Railroad.
A mile in thIrty-three seconds is the
rate OF speed in which a party of news
paper men were carried on the Boynton
bicycle railway on Friday from Graves
END to Borrow's hotel at Brighton,
Coney Island. Eben Moody Boyn-
ton, president of the company which has
Dullt the road, was on hand to explain
its operations, and Gen. George Wiugate,
attorney for the Brooklyn elevated rail-
way, watched the new style of passenger
transportation with dep interest. A
single bicycle passenger car was used /,
running upon one side of the old Brigh-
ton Beach tram. The car was double
decker car, in each deck being six
double and one single compartments,
each compartment being by itself and
entered from the side of the car. Each
seat accommodating four persons. The
car Is less In width than half the
standard-gauge tracks, so that two cars
can pass each other when they run on
opposite rails. The wheels of the car
are directly under the center, double
fianRe grasps the rail.
The car is prevented from topping over
by double wheels attached to the top of
the car and running one on each side of
continuous wooden beam held up by
the framework on either side of the
track. The engine employed 10 a bicycle
one also. The car is run on the princi-
pie of hoop in motion, which the faster
it goes Ia the less likel, to &obble or turn
over. Mr.. Boynton says bis scheme is
practical for elevated roads, and some
engineering papers have already declared
that it is destined to revolutionize the
present system OF passenger Transports
ton. Mr.. Boynton says he can carry
1000 passengers at the rate of ninety
miles an hour continuously, or 600 pas
seugers at 100 miles an hour.

Ne Says the Australian Ballot System Ii i,
Success The dangerous Electric Wires. 4
BosroN, Jan. Gov. Brackett sent
his first message 10 The MASSACHUSETTS,
Legislature to-day. On the subject OF
ballot reform he says: "Thc first cleo
lions under what is; popularly known
as the Australian system, have recently
been held, aud have demonstrated the
great advantages OF the new, method Of
voting. In view OF its success and Of the
importance Of the primary meetings In
influencing our ELECTIONS, suggest that
you consider the ACCESSIBILITY OF Ieyisla.
tion applying the new method, as far as
Is practicable, to such meetings. The
Legislature has already enacted d law
for their regulation, and any additional
measures which would increase public
Interest aud strengthen confidence in
them and render them more fully repre-
sentative OF the will Of the people would
be promotive OF good government ~
On the subject OF electricity, he saws:
"fhe report that the Boston fire was
caused by an electric wire, and the ac-
cldents almost daily occurring from the
same cause admonish that, While cleo
tricity has been made 80 largely sub
servlent to the uses and conveniences OF
civilization, it is adding to the insecurity
Of lie and property The necessity is
urgent for the enactment Of laws for the
supervision and regulation OF electric
wires wherever they exist. - re sl
