TIA Australian Bill Passes tho Eanete

The proceedings in rhs Senate yesterday
were exceedingly gratifying to The Republi-
can friends of the Australian ballot system.
Ga the first motion to substitute the miaority
report on the Cnecn bill for the ms jcriiy the
vote was 10 in favor to Il opposed. There
are only tour Democratic senators. 80 tbstif
they had all voted in favor of the saasti,u-
ton i. would still have en- defeated. Tue
motion was therefore defeated by Republ-
can votes. Then followed a motion to accept
the SHORTY report. hicd was carried by the
same vote 1f II to 10. Senator Spear then
moved To amend the Clsson bill By sub
shutting his owa THE chief differercs be-
tween the two is that Mr.. Spears spplies
'hs system to ,he whole State exclusive of
plantations This was adopted by vote
Of 81 % 8 The Sens.e, therefore, by
Republican votes. with no assistance from
Democrats that it could not haze done
without, has adopted the Australian
system AMI spfl.ad it to all the
towns in The State. The bill
nov goes to the House, where its fate
is, of course, somewhs. doubtful. A change
of very ias votes will pass The bill, and
there are sigas hat .hts changes will be
forthc0miTg. Stree the vote in the House
members have heard from their cons,iru-
ents, and the outlook for the passage OF the
bill Is very hpDefui.

A Few Facts.

wish TO say further, and / say il
adyisediy. that from the first day of the
session the kfSSEBEG JoE RNAL took
no part in this discussion on the Ausr
traliau ballot bill, nor were there any
| editorials upon il until the commit
Tee on printing had signed the print
ing contract and it had passed both
branches of this Legislature. But, the
very next morning after that contract
had been approved by the Legislature
and signed by the Governor. they came
| out in favor of the ballot bill, and they
have teen in favor of ii ever since
Senator Ryder.
We do not think that the senator from
pcaobscot would Intentionally mi-tep-
resent the JorENAL, yet We think it is
but Just to say that no one Of the state
nents contained in the above quotation
is correct. On January 9TH, the third
ally endorsed the Australian ballot.
Then followed the long hearings before
the judiciary committee which it re-
ported at length content to let
the arguments there adduced speak for
themselves on March I'd, four days be-
fore the Senate passed the printing con
tract and before the minority report on
the ballot bill was taken up in the
House. the JOURNAL contained a headed
editorial warmly espouslng the secret
ballot, and expressing the belief that the
bill reported by the majority of the
iudi ,iary committee would be given 4
passage The day after the printing CON
tract passed the House March ! the
JOURNAL contained no editorial refer
ence whatever to the secret ballot nor did
it touch upon that subject in its editorial
columns until March 18th when it COM
mcnted editorjaliy upon the action of the
Aroostook Pomona ,,rauge. Print
ing contracts are never signed by
the Governor. He has nothing to
do with them That matter rests
entirely with the two branches Of the
Legislature. We think that Senator
Ryder, if he had known these facts,
would rot have passed the structure
upon the JOURNAL contained in his
recent speech upon the ballot bill.
