The Australian Ballot.

The bill introduced by Senator La
Grave providing for the Australian
system of voting was good one, but
the little joker which was attached in
the Assembly and designated as a
Slight amendment" we find to be a
provision that permits a voter who
cannot make out his own ticket to
take friend" with him into the
voting booth to make out his ticket
for him. This rider in n measure
destroys the secrecy Of the ballot, for
on election day there is sure to be a
vast number of voters who are sun
able" to make out their tickets, and
who will have no difficulty il finding
a friend with fifteen dollars in his

The Life of General Sherman"

The enterprisiug Pacific Publishing
Co, Of Portland and San Francisco,
are again to the front. This time it is
with the Life of General Sherman. +"
written by the deceased Generals
fellow-warrior and bosom friend.
Major-General Howard, assisted by
that most popular of all biographers
w. Fletcher johnson, author of "The
Johnstown Flood" and "The Life of
Sitting Bull and the Indian War"
also brought out on this Coast by
the Pacific Publishing Co. A great
full nation is at all times ready to
honor the memory of her brave sons
who, during life have followed the
Stars and Stripes upon the CORY field
of battle; and this is particularly the
case with the last of the great War
Heroes who has been summoned by
the grim call of death to throw off
this mortal coil, full of years; full of
honor; full of glory; full Of the love,
affection and gratitude of his fellow
citizens; full of everything, indeed,
that goes to insure an enviable i'm
mortality to the memory Of the de-
parted.
This beautiful work, just issued by
our friends, the Pacific Publishing
Co., will be no mean factor in keeping
green for many years to come the
story of the late Generals early life,
his great war record at Bull Run, at
Shiloh, at Memphis, at Vicksburg, at
Chattanooga, at Knoxville, at Mission.
AIRY Ridge, at Atlanta, and last but
very far from the least, that glorious
and immortal "March to the Sea-"
the generalship and military grand
eur OF which has pr Ibably never been
surpassed in the annals of warfare.
All these matters are most graphically
and wildly dealt with by the able
authors; and when it is remembered
that General Howard has, with the
consent of the late Generals family,
had access to all the private diaries
and correspondence of General Sher-
man for the purpose OF enabling him
to do justice to the subject he had
taken IN hand, there can be no doubt
but that the book under notice ia
an authentic and reliable biography
of the deceased soldier. It is illus
trated by portraits, battle scenes etc,
from end to end. The steel plato en-
craving of the late General, from q
photograph taken just before his last
illness in his Generals uniform is a
very fine likeness, and master piece
OF the engravPr's art.
The book should find it's way into
every patriotic home in the country.

another column.

Special Religious Meetings

Every form of religion since time began has
had special season and used extra efforts to in
tensify the interest in worship and overcome
the combinations in array against them. The
Hebrews had their festivals and Journeys. in
which all took part. Pagans have their great
gatherings for kindling the devoteas to great
warmth of interest. Mahomedans organize
their great pilgrimages to Mecca, when the
heart Is made hot at the tomb of the great
Prophet The Roman Catholics have their mis-
sions and holy seasons when the church is call
ed apart from the world and more closely drawn
to thoughts of Christ's death and passion, The
Episcopal Church has its lenten seasons. when
sobriety, solemnity, self denial and devotion to
thoughts Of duty, death ard destiny are in press
ed upon all. ALI Protestant bodies have had
extra meetings-protracted meetings, revival
meetings, evangelistic meetings-at times most
suitable, when they have urged religion on the
attention of many with greater force. melted
each other to greater diligence, pressed per-
sonal self-examination, reused each other to
greater activity in behalf of others. Farmers
have their institutes, business men their con-
ventions, politicians their exciting campaigns
Why is all this? The reasons are many. Men

Samuel NJ. Gilbert. an old resident of Charles
town. died at his home in that township Monday
morning. aged rs years and days. Deceased had
suffered for many years with stomach trouble.
which was greatly aggravated by a severe fall
sustained about one month ago. from the effects
of which he was unable to rally.
Mr.. Gilbert was born in 1913. in Palmyra town
ship, being the fifth son in family of eight boys
and one girl. Mrs. Laura Waller, of Atwater,
and Theron Gilbert. of Deerfeld. are the only
surviving members of the family. In 1913 he
married Miss Malinda Tuttle. of Edinburgh, who
with c. l.. Gilbert, of Ravenna. Mrs, E. R. Phil

town, and Mrs Rev. NJ. J. Grabel, of Newton
Falls, their four children, survive him. In 1872
he moved to Charlestown. where he spent the re-
mainder of his days. Mr.. Gilbert was born at a
time when the hardy characteristics of the pio-
neer were early developed. and during the first
half ofhis life his experience was that of those
self-denying spirits to whose energy and patience
We are indebted so much. During all the time of
his last sickness he was fully conscious of his
condition and surroundings and frequently asked
to see friends.to whom he would speak, realizing
that his end was near.
His funeral was held at 10 o'clock. from the
house. the services being conducted by Rev.
Harshman. Pastor of the Charlestown M. E.
