AN OREGON VAIL.

1t looks as if there was concerted effort
among some of the newspapers in Oregon
to have the Australian system of voting
repealed in that state. The Oregonian be-
gan the attack. The State Journal follows
it up with the following:
The Australian ballot system is the BIG
gest piece of humbug, up one side and
down the other that has ever been in f1ict-
ed on the people of Oregon or any other
American state. 1t is English. you know,
and never should have been admitted into
this country free of duty.
After the new system of voting has been
tried there can hardly be found an argu-
ment in defence of the old system. To cry
out that it is English is puerile. 1t is
Australian. The settlers of that far-off
island continent have improved on many
things both English and American. Their
land system, for instance, is admittedly
the best system for the protection Of tie
purchaser in the world-the state govern
ment guaranteeing all titles. What a
world Of land litigation would have been
avoided in this country if such system
had been established by the government
upon acquiring titles to new territories and
lands. tits to be hoped that Oregon will
not go back TO boss rule in elections. one
of the bosses in bewailing old times in this
city some time ago, said; aWhy, under
the old system we could run III fifty 81 4
hundred men on election day and NAL e
'em vote as we please, but we can't do it

The play Of "Mr. Potter Of Texas last
night .at the Olympia Theater was not
greeted with a full house, although better
than usual. probably because of the wide

as Mr.. Potter, is an insult to the Lone Star

~ MAN who does not read the newspa-

ard Mansfield one Of the best actors in the
country. He has issued instructions to his
manager to discontinue the use Of litho.

play in windows and on walls and confine all
advertising exclusively to the newspapers.
The would-be manager who pays out his
money or tickets for big snowy Autographs

dodger advertising will probably take issue
with Mr.. Mansfield on the above PROPOSE
ton; but intelligent people will sustain
the actor. Some Of the best New York
