The Baker ballot bill has been recon-
structed so as to conform better than
before to the popular idea OF secret
voting plan. The ballot is decreased to
one-half its present size. Only one set
of ballots and sample ballots are neces-
sary. The percentage required for par
ty nominations is reduced from three to
two. The time allowed for printing
ballots is increased. 1t provides that
the ballots for spring elections shall be
done under the supervision of the coun-
ty commissioners. Certificates of nomi-
nation for members of the House of
Representatives shall be filed with the
county commissioners, instead of the
Secretary of the Commonwealth. One
mark in circle at the top of the col
umn of candidates shall be vote for
every one in that column. Where the cir
Gle is not marked mark for every candi-
date voted for is required. A screen or
door must be placed ON the front of each
booth, thereby better securing privacy.
1t provides for greater thickness of
paper for ballots and the corner of the
paper folded over shall be printed black
80 that the number cannot be seen
through the paper. Incase a votervotes
for more persons than he is entitled to,
the ballot shall not be entirely thrown
out, but SO much Of the ballot as Is prop
erly marked shall be counted.

The History of Union.

Those who are interested in this history will be glad to know that the literary part of the work is now practically completed, and the manuscript is ready for the print CTS. The printing will require about three months, hence it is hoped that the book will come out by June. A large amount of material has been added to that which MT. Hammond left, and hence the work when complete will be an octave volume of about four hundred pages. Besides the history of the settlement, the Revolu- tion, the churches, the schools, the in- dustries, etc., there will be large num- Der of biographical sketches of prominent citizens, and others who were born in town, or whose parents were, and who have become distinguished elsewhere. Among these are Rev. Charles Hammond, Jesse Olney, Judge Eleazar Foster, Rev. s. I. Curtiss, Rev. George Curtiss, Prof. s. l. Curtiss, DID,, Capt. Chauncey Paul, Harvey Walker; Jared D. Sessions, Moses G. Leonard, Mrs. Calista H. Vinton, Rev. Thomas Holman, Sarah Paul, David P. Corbin, Philip D. Armour, and number of others. There are also quite complete genealogies of all the families who have lived in town for any length of time, traced down in many cases to the children and grandchildren of those who were born in town.
 The book will contain fine map of the town, drawn by MT. B. H. Lockwood, professor of mechanical drawing in Yale University. There will also be number of portraits, including those of Mr. Ham, mond, Jesse Olney and Prof. Curtis. The offer is made to any person who would like to have picture of himself or of any member of his family inserted, to have the privilege of doing so if he will bear the cost, which will be between $4 and $lO, according to the kind of work. Any person wishing to accept this offer should confer at once either with Wm M. Corbin of Stafford Springs, or with Harvey M. Lawson, Y ale Divinity School, New Haven, Conn.

The New York World has taken poll of senators in Washington on the ques- tions of repeating the Sherman law and Mckinley tariff and annexation of Hawaii, with this result .Thirty-nine senators favor and twenty-eight oppose the repeal of the Sherman law, w,while sixteen are non- +committal; forty -one favor and thirty three oppose the repeal of the Mckinley act, while nine are non-eommittal and forty favor and twenty oppose the annex ation of Hawaii, while twenty=three are non-committal. From these figules it will be seen that the ''non-cemmittal" con- tingent is quite formidable. Even U, s. senators like to sit on the fence.
