present method Of voting that has ever
been made. On the question of what con-
stitutes distinguishing mark on ballot,
which mark is prohibited by law, the
court unanimously held that whatever
mark than the single one appropriate to
designate the intention of voter is dis
tlnguishing mark. The case was brought
IN contestlng the right to Office OF TWO
local candidates who were ostensibly
elected at spring election a year and a
naIt ago. By the decision both are ousted
from Office. The result of this decision
Will be tar-reaching.
The court holds that if two cts on
an official ballot are identical, that the
marking OF cross over each is illegal;
also, that to mark n cross over any ticket,
ana then before each name on such ticket,
OF placing opposite the name OF the cah-
oldate, and then erasing the name of his
opponent on another ticket is Illegal.
In substance, the opinion holds that a
single mark Is vote and is sufficient to
indicate the voters intention, and that's q
second mark might be agreed upon as
means OF Identification. 1t has beeu the
practice OF election inspectors to count all
such doubly marked ballots. so that un-

Ofncer OF the court, the concluding con-
siderations may be summed up as fol-
lows:
'First-The rule is of doubtful value as
a preventive OF strikes, because it leaves
employees TO act upon impulse and from
passion, and freed from the restraints of
the brotherhood regulations.
Second-The rule is of doubtful value
when the court Is the real employer, both
from the reluctance of the employed to
defy the courts authority, and from the
power of the latter to speedily and sum-
marily vindicste it.
Ihird-Therulei is of positively injuri-
Gus tendency in the dissatisfaction
and discomfort engendered among en-
pIoyes by the denial to them of rights en-
Joyed by citizens generally and deemed
necessary for their comfort and security
tourth-The reputation of the rule,
on the other hand, has the positive merit
OF tending to secure for the service the
good will OF employees, and thus prolnot-
Ing lis efficiency; of recognizing the real
conditions OF the capital and labor prob

right 10 organize and is organized: OF il
Illustrating the work, under most favor

ton as the means of adjusting the differ
enceS between capital and labor; OF de-
monstrating that there is not one law for
one class of the community and another

tered, that general respect and confidence

CHICAGO, Nov. S.-Another effort will
be made to revive the Transcontinental
Passenger Association. and the meeting
for that purpose may be held in Chicago
on November 10th, although the date is
not certain. The Southern Pacific is, as
before, the principal mover in the scheme,
and 1t is understood that it will max Q
considerable concessions to the direct
California lines to induce them 10 enter
The association. These concessions must
be OF very tangible sort to get the
Atchlson luto any plan for the reorganiza-
ton OF the ASSOCIATION. This road is not
at the present time i'll a position TO enter
into any association obligations, nor will
1t be until the present troubles between
The stockholders are finally adjusted.
The Union Pacific, too, has objections,
and they Will take some time 10 remove.
Altogether the prospects for the revival of
The ASSOCIATION are not better than at the
time when the Southern Pacific tried TO
warm it into life two months ago.

The Wife Confesses, and Lays the
Blame on Her Paramour.
SAN BERNARDINo, Nov. s. = Mrs,
Barnes, the woman who is under arrest
here charged with poisoning her husband,
a prosperous liveryman, who narrowly
escaped death, made a statement to-day.
She attempts to lay all the blame upon
Thomas Salter, her paramour, who is
also under arrest. In her confession she
states that Salter was sick when her hus-
band brought him to their home. She
nursed him through his sickness, and fell
in love with him. Salter proposed that
they elope. This she would not consent
to while her husband was living. Then
Salter proposed that they shoot her hus-
band, but she could not bear the idea of a
cold-blooded murder, so poisoning was
finally agreed on. They began by ad-
miDistering the poison in Barnes food.
Then when he became sick they put it in
his pIedicine, and as he grew worse in
creased the doses. Several times Mrs.
Barnes relented, and pleaded with Salter
to be released from their terrible COM
pact, whereupon Salter would threaten to
shoot her if she did not keep on admin
istering the poison. Finally, on the very
day of Salter's arrest, they agreed to
leave their victim to mis- fate and elope.

New YORK, Nov. S.-Inquiries made
by the Associated Press at the office of
the American Line Steamship shows that
the officers Of that company do not feel
anxious about the safety of the steamer
Rhynland. of that line, which, according
to "a sensational story published here, is
now six days overdue on her voyage
from this port to Antwerp. Under the
most favorable conditions of weather the
officers of the American line add that the
Rhynland could not have reached her
destination before Monday or Tuesday
last, and in such weather as has been re-
ported on the Atlantic the steamer would
have gone at a greatly reduced speed.
The Khydland had on board about $50

GOVERNOR WAITE.
Coiorado's Populist Leader Thinking

Colorado's Populist Leader Thinking
of Removing to Illinois.
DENVER, Nov. S.-An evening paper
says: Governor Waite is going to leave
Colorado. A well-known Populist SAYS
that the Governor is thinking over a
proposition said to have been made to
him to take up his residence IN Illinois.
1t is said that the Peoples party of Il
linois have taken such liking to the
Governor that they want him not only to
reside among them, but also to lead them
to victory as their candidate for Governor
in 1885, The reception given Governor
Waite on his visit TO the Windy City last
month pleased him immensely. 1t is not
probable that if the Governor accepts the
proposition he will live in Chicago. but
he will undoubtedly take up his residence
near that city. His Illinois friends be-
lleve that he will make a good run for
Governor, and they are anxious to have
him come and settle among them.
