Senator Saxton, the author of the New
York ballot law, is going to try and have
it amended this winter SO as to better ac-
complish its purpose. The paster ballot
will be eliminated and blanket ballot
with the names arranged alphabetically
after the Massachusetts style, or by parties
In the Maine fashion substituted, provided
the Democratic members of the legislature
and Gov. Flower do not oppose. IL is the
testimony Of all parties that the paster
ballot has to great extent destroyed the
secrecy OF the ballot which the law was
meant to secure, and has also greatly in
creased the cost of the system.

What effect the revolution in Brazil will
have upon our reciprocity treaty is ques
tion which undoubtedly is giving our pov.
eminent some concern. Under the condi-
tlons OF the agreement the arrangement
or treaty may be terminated by either
country after brief notice, so If Fonseca
should be overthrown and a new regime
established it would be in the power of the
latter to annul the present arrangement
within short time. II, however, Brazil
should annul the treaty our government
has the power to reimp0se the duty on Bra
lillian sugar and coffee. This would prac-
tically exclude Brazilian sugar from our
Market inasmuch as 1t could not compete
with West India sugar. which would be
admitted free. and of course would prove
very hurtful to the Brazilian sugar inter-
ests without increasing the price of sugar
to the American consumer. A duty on
coffee, however, would prove very harmful
TO the American consumer and do COM
paratively little injury to the Brazilian
producer, inasmuch as Brazil is the prin-
cipal source of our coffee supply, and must
continue to be for some time tn come, duty
orno duty. 1t will be seen, therefore.
that the annulling of the Brazilian treaty
and the imposition Of the duty on her
coffee and sugar would impose a consider
able burden on the people of both coun-
tries. BY no means all of 1t would fall on
Brazil, indeed 1t is doubtful whether the
major part Of it would.

An inspection of the figures Of the recent
lewa election shows clearly that there has
been great revulsion of feeling on the
prohibitory question since 1882, when the
prohibitory amendment was carried by
10000 majority. In that year only twenty
three counties voted against prohibition.
while this year thirty-nine are on that
side, and nineteen large counties which
gave prohibition majorities in 1882 now
give anti-prohibition msjorities. In few
northern counties prohibition has made
some gains, but in the great majority it has
lost. How much of this is due to the fact
OF considerable influx of foreign popula-
tioD, largely Germans. it is difficult to say.
That some of it is there is no doubt. A
considerable part of it, however, must be
set down to change Of opinion on the
part OF old voters brought about perhaps
by the failure of the law to accomplish all
that was expected and consequent desire
to try some other method. 1t is quite evil
dent from the way public sentiment is
drifting that sooner or later that some 9TH
er method will be tried, probably the
license method. But we are inclined to
think that the results from that method
will be SO disappointing that the pendulum
will swing back again.

Yesterday afternoon Jacob S. Taylor
and Dennis O'Brien, the two men who
figured so conspicuously in the sensa-

former by Miss Jennie Marshall, ap-
peared before City Justice Austin, ac-
companied by Deputy Sheriff Harmon

that they had been arrested upon war
rants charging them with the crimes OF
abduction and perjury respectively.
The justice of the peace, p. E. King, who
issued the warrant, being absent, they
presented themselves before Justice
Austin as the nearest magistrate, and
demanded immediate hearing. The
district attorney, however, not being
ready to proceed with the cases, asked
for time, and by consent of the defend
ants, both cases were set for examina-
tion on Monday morning next, bail be-
ing required in the sum of $4,000, as al
ready fixed by Judge Wade. Both men
furnished bonds in the sum named, the
sureties being Messrs. G. P. and w. p.
