"It is true I received the communication
he states he sent me. We are good friends,
and only differ in eur Interpretation Of the
law.
1T is also true we have discussed the
question OF the right Of political parties 10
hesds on the ticket very frequently.
"Of course if Mr.. Waite does not agree
with me he will no doubt carry out his own
ideas, and can only be controlled 10y the
courts.
'My place is to expound the law as l be-
lIeye ii 10 exists. and If / make an error it
can be easily remedied In court, but il any
election officer makes a mistake by placing
heading on ticket when he should not lie
may jeopardiZe the election by invalidatlng
the ballots.
"The proper course for such officer to
pursue, considering their doubts, is, In my
opinion, 10 refuse TO give a heading. and
then mandamus proceeding can be sued
out and the whole matter decided at an
early date.
Personally | have nos objection to all
parties having an equal showing on the
ticket | am In favor of every party having
a head on the ticket; but have to interpret
the law and cannot consent to ieopaIdize
the election by advancing an opinion which
L DelleVe TO De incorrect.
II may say this, too, that ii is to the in
teTest OF the Non-P Partisans not TO have
head on the State ticket, for the reason that
il marked straight the voter Will lose his
vote for Presidential electors and Congress
man.
This is because the Non Partisans have
no candidates for those offices and for the
reason that after one marks ticket straight
he cannot stamp il again without invalid at
ing it. except in the case of constitutional
amendments.
The arguments which / used In my
opinion With reference TO the Peoples party
is applicable 10 all other parties under the
same condition.
Il have not vet decided what local parties
are entitled to headings on the municipal
ticket.
There are quite a number of local par
ties that carried per cent of the total vote
at the last election. They are all entitled
to municipal heading, but not to one on
the State ticket
y will give my views on this subject In
lew days in communication which L will
make to the Registrar in answer to a num-
Der OF questions propounded to me by him
regarding the respective powers of the
Registrar and the Election Commission un-
der the new election law.
My opinion Is almost prepared ON the
subject and will have it ready in a few
days. You can say that / will hold that
the Registrar is not clerk OF the Election
commissioners, but is an independent
official having duties aud powers with
which the Election Commissioners cannot

How mrs. Cynthia Leonard Would Sin

plify Taxation.
Mrs. Cynthia Leonard, the mother Of
Lillian Russell, the actress, is In this city,
and last evening addressed the friends Of
the Peoples party at the Bijou building on
Market street.
Mrs. Leonard ran for Mayor in New
York City two years ago, and is well known
on the Atlantic seabOard as a champion Of
women's suffrage.
She Is TALL dignified lady of somewhat
portIy build, and is evidently we'll used to
public speaking.
Her text last night was "Who Are the
Peoplep" and she showed with remarkable
clearness that the women were just as much
the people as the men.
incidentally Mrs. Leonard described how
she had Mortified the New York Registrar by
insisting on registering in 1890, and how she
had been nominated for Office by the city
newspaper men.
Then she explained how she would tax
people II the power were given her. The
more man had the more he should be
taxed, so that Vanderbilt would be forced
Tor economy's sake TO relinQuish his millions.
That's what i would have done il they
had elected me Mayor" she said, ''and I
think l would have made a better Mayor
than any New York ever hadr'

for the mark of the cross to signify the in
tent OF the voter
At the head Of the ticket. however, will
be space set aside for such as desire to
vote any particular ticket straight.
Just what party names Will be entitled 10
such preference at the head Of the ticket
has not yet been decided upon.
That question Will be brought before the
Supreme Court for its decision later on. =.
Il may be said that eminent lurists are OF
the opinion tnat the Non-Partlsans VIII DC
entitled to such heading as well as the Re-
publicans and Democrats, who have seemed
to think heretofore that they were alone en-
TITLED to distinction under the law.
That. however, is neither here nor there
for the present.
Suppose that voter goes into q polling
booth to vote, and. after looking over his
ticket decides that he VIII vote the Demo-
cratic ticket straight
He takes the small rubber-stamp which
is provided for that purpose, and opposite
the inscription democratic ticket
straight" at the head Of the ballot he stamps
cross.
The ballot is then folded carefully and
handed to the Inspector VINO deposits IL IN
the ballot-box, after consultation with the
judges, who decide on the right or the per-
son offering the ticket to vote.
This looks all right and seems fair
enough-and is for that matter-but back
of il all is little joker.
The inspectors are the men 10 watch.
They are already being trained in Kelly s
night school.
1t is not. however, in the depnsiting Of
the ballots where the crooked work is to be
done.
All that is to be done after they have
been cast, and when the count Is under
way.
The method to be pursued is easy to see
through. but hard to cOunteract unless care
fully guarded against.
In the first place, of course, Kelly will de-
pend upon securing the appointment OF his
own inspectors of election through the
machin ations cf the Election Commission.
All of them, so far as Kelly is concerned.
will be men who are willing to do his bid
ding, and who will resort TO any means to
carry out the boss plans.
By referring to the.law it will be seen that
the provisions are peculiar.

Democratic party straight bears upon its
face any other than the single cross opposite

A SUIT TO BE BROUGT.
The Non-Partisaps Want Place at th'
Head of the Ticket.

The Non -Partfsaps Want a Place at the
Head of the Ticket.
There is one thing which may interfere
with Kelly's plans.
That is the fact that the Non-Partisans
have already employed counsel and VIII
fight for place at the head OF the ticket.
Attorney General Hart says there is noth-
ing in the law TO give 1t them. but IN this
view of the case he is opposed by L. U.
Waite, the Secretary of State.
In addition to this suck eminent lawyers
as NJ. Nj. Estee, W. F. Fitzgerald and John
CARRIER are Of the opinion that the section
of the law denying place at the head of the
ticket to the Non-PartlSans is clearly un'
constitutional.
This belief is grounded on the broad prin-
ciple that the Australian law denies to one
class Of citizens privileges it grants to an
other.
Under the organic law of the land. for
instance, 10 is held as broad principle that
all men are created free aud equal.
To make it plain. there is no favor to be
shown the Republicans or Democrats whicn
should not be granted the Non-Partlsans or
any other citizens, for that matter, who
might apply.
Taking this view of the matter ii is the
intention Of the gentlemen comprising the
Non Partisan convention to go before the
Supreme Court with an agreed case ana ask
for decision.
1t is given out that A. l.. Rhodes, ex-J us
tice of the Supreme Court of this State, has
already rendered his services. and he Will at
once make up the case.

Imagine, for the sake of argument, that
John Smith, who works down on the water
front, and lives in the Twenty or
Fortyffth District, goes UP to vote on elec-
ton day and announces the fact that he is
unable TO vote, and is in sore need of a
couple of dollars to hel D him ont.
An emissary from Third street who has a
lew dollars slowed away In convenient
corner pounces upon MIR. Smith and inti-
mates that his vote is worth 81 90
Smith, who Is not higb-priced indi-
vidual, hesitates for moment, and then
accepts the terms.
The money is shown him, but he is told
that IT will not BE- paid until he has Demon
strated that his vote was cast for the right
ticket.
when you go into the BOOTH" says the
Kelly emlssary, tell the inspectors that
you are unable to write and they will see
that your ticket is properly marked. That
is their duty under the law.
Ii you want TO he paid for your vote
however. you must be very careful.
Its your privilege TO ask any one you

Then Smith goes to the booth tosvote. and

What SCIENCE Has Done.

People often ask what is the use Of
the abstract studies scientific men and
women often indulge in? The reply
is. you must first discover a new truth
before you can tell whether you can
make any value of it. The valuable
discovery that the black rot can be pre-
vented from injuring grapes by inclos.
ing the bunch in n paper bag is the di-
rect result of scientific studies. When
it was found that the rot was caused by
fungus growing from little seed or
pore, which floating through the at
mosphere attaches itself to the grape
berry, it was the easiest thing to think
of putting bags over the bunch early in
the season, so that the spore couldn't
get there. Hundreds of thousands of
dollars nave been saved to the culti-
vator by this bagging of grapes, which
would have been totally lost but for
the labors of scientific msn-Colman's
Rural World.

HINTS FOR FARMERS.

PEARS seldom ripen thoroughly on
the trees. Pick the pears off and place
them on shelf in dark location,
and they will be greatly improved in
quality.
IF the grass has taken possession of
the strawberry beds handwork will be
necessary to clean The rows. The work
will be laborious, but it must be done
if crop is desired next season.
FIELD nice will never overrun a field
where owls exist in large numbers
they diligently hunt for them in the
most favorable localities for procuring
them.
IT is not necessary to use wet land in
order to have pasture. 1t is true that
some grasses will thrive on a damp
SOIL but the most desirable grasses are
grown on rich land that has been well
underdrained.
IT should not be fault with an ami
nal that it eats plenty of food or has a
good appetite. In order for cow to
produce large quantity of milk she
must have a good appetite, as she
cannot produce something from moth
ing.
MAKE an experiment in drainage by
tile, draining thoroughly the wettest
and heaviest acre on the farm. Then
grow crop of clover, follow it with
wheat, and see if the increased yield
does not pay back a large interest on
the cost of the drainage.
CHANGING the cows from one pasture
to another not only promotes the appe-
tite and permits of greater variety of
food, but also allows the grass on the
pastures to better withstand dry sea-
sons. 1t is n mistake to allow cattle to
Craze pasture too closely.

The perches are IA inches above

frame is supported on legs resting on
the floor; they are also hinged to the
frame so that when frames are raised
the legs will turn down and be out of

venient to clean both perchcs and floor.
