The Establishment OF the secret
Ballot

Although the method OF secret
voting known as the Australian
system was introduced into the
United States only five years ago,
it has now been adopted in thirty
three States OF the Union. An ex-
PLANTATION OF the statutes OF each oil
these and their experience with the
use OF the secret ballot, as well as
Of the cropping of candidates and OF
the method Of voting the ballot 10
each State, is explained in an inter
esting review of this whole move
ment by Mr.. Joseph 3. Blshsp in
the January number Of TIE Forum.
The rapidity with which this system
has been adopted in every part OF
the Union is without a parallel in
the history OF reform movements in
the United States. Almost every
State Of Importance, except some OF
the Southern States, now has Sc
cret ballot law on It's statute books,
and some of them have it in their
constitutions. Ii is a singular fact
that the Southern States have been
the hindmost instead of the fore
most in this movement, because the
secret ballot would undoubtedly in
practice disfranchise large part of
the ignorant voters in the South.

rRoM THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE rRrBuNY.
Albany, May Is.-The Forest Commissioners have
instructed their wardens In the Adirondack woods to
send them all the news they can gather about the
construction of railways in northern New York.
Special agents will also be sent into the woods al
once TO learn what progress the railroads making
in laying tracks across the state lands.
In this way the Forest Commission is attempting
to obtain information upon which TO base suits against
such railways have invaded the States lands.
Recorder Hessberg Of thin city the counsel of the
Forest Commissioners, Intends 10 apply TO the courts
for injunction against the railroads which have been
guilty Of this course. The Attorney General it Is
possible may represent the Forest Commissioners IL
these suits, owing to the importance of the actions.
When Attorney General Tabor went to his home In
Buffalo on Friday he took with him the papers con-
talning the application of the Adirondack and ST. Law
Railway for permission 10 the States lands
In the southwestern Of Franklin County. This
application was made TO the Land Board. Of which
Attorney General Tabor is one Of the members. 1t Is
possible THAI ne will give legal opinion that the
Land Board has authority to grant the right Of
way TO railroads the States forest lands, and
that the Forest Commissioners the State officers
to whom this application must be made.
Colonel Fox, the secretary of the Forest Commits
sion, received word to-day that the Adirondack and
ST. Lawrence Railroads engineers were laying out a
railroad Of fifteen miles in length from saranac Lake
westward to the Northern Adirondack Railway. This
bit Of railroad viii In time be merely spur Of the
Adirondack and st. Lawrence 1t Is intended to run
trains from New York City this summer over the New
York Central TO Utica, thence over the Rome and
WatartOwn to Norwood thence over the Lake Cham
plain and Ogdensburg 10 NORA and thence over the
Northern Adirondack and the spur OF the Adron-
dack and st. Lawrence 10 Saranac Lake
The Forest Commissioners also received word 70,
day that 900 tons of rails for the Adirondack ana
ST. Lawrence had been received at Utica, and Would
shortly be laid upon the southern portion OF that
road now known as the Mohawk and Northern Rall
way and running nOrthward from lierdmer t. Poland
and now being extended fifty miles to Locks Lake.
The state Railroad Commissioners have Just granted
the application OF the Mohawk and Northern for per
mission TO change its gauge from narrow 10 broad
A large number Of laborers are al work already at
