The last legislature made some signi-
hcant changes IN the Australian ballot
law and among the most important are
that a party, in order to get a place on
the ticket, must cast at least per cent
of the vote of the county at the proceed
ing election, that where candidates are
nominated by petition each candidates
nomination paper must be signed by
D per cent of the qualified voters of the
county. that the squares will be at the
right hand side of the ballot instead of
the left, and that the party casting the
largest number of votes, for the high
est office voted for in the county, shall
have first place on the ballot. the next
highest. second, and so on.
This will give the Populists first place
on the ballot, and republicans second.
No other party or individuals can be
given place except by petition, in our
judgment. The vote on representative
will necessarily determine the matter.
Last year the candidates were Oscar
Haberlein and F.T. Patton. The vote
was:
IdIIoH. ........ .oOU
hdDeTlcln. .6UU
The contention that the vote on pres
idential electors must be taken as bas,
Is hangs on very slender thread. In
the first place Populists and free silver
democrats voted the same ticket. the
candidates were the same and even If
presidential electors and state officers
were taken as basis the POpullsts
would get first place because the Popu.
list candidates received the largest
number of votes. But even if there
were different state tickets and only
two county tickets, the highest county
candidate receiving the largest humber
of votes would settle the matter. In
Barber county there were only two
tickets last year. They were republic
can and Populist. The highest Office
voted for in the county was representa-
tive and the POpullst candidate receiv-
ed 60 more votes than the republican
candidate. This clearly gives the Pop
uliSts first place on the ticket and the
republicans get second place. If there
are any other candidates they cannot
get place on the ticket except by pc
tition and they can get neither first or
second place. To show that we are
right in our position we have only to
refer to the following paragraph of the
new law:
1.-The list of candidates for the sever
al parties and groups of petitioners
shall be arranged according to the num-
Der of votes cast in the county by the
several parties at the last preceding
general election. The party casting
the largest number of votes, for the
highest office voted for in the county at
such election, shall have the first place
on the ticket; the party castlng the
next largest number shall have. the Sec
ond place on the ticket, and so on"
The commissioners canvassed the
vote three days after the election last
year and announced the result. The
figures show that Patton received $50
votes, Haberlein 600; the Bryan electors
received 731 votes, the Mckinley cleo
tors received 597 votes; Leedy received
72S votes for governor and Morrill, re-
ceived 597. - = -e.s=---.-
This certainly entities the Populist
party to first place on the official ballot
this fall and they should demand their
rights in the matter.

Congress Commences rlonday.

The regular session of congress
commences next Monday and there
is a good deal of discussion as to
what is going to be done. The New
York World has been intervie wing
United States senator's concerning
Cuba and is of the opinion that Pres.
ident McKinley's conservative stand
will find little sympathy. Many
want the government to take quick
action in the matter and that means
to do something in favor of Cuba.
If the president remains firm in his
conservative stand his policy will
doubtless be the one to be followed.
There is considerable talk of reform
ing the currency, but the free silver
mem will oppose anything the ma
jority is likely to propose. The po-
position in the senate appears in
SurmOuntaDle ana TINS may lnduce
members OF the house not to attempt
any currency legislation at present.
The anti.scalping and pooling bills
will probably receive early attention.
Secretary Gage says that in the an.
nual estimates he would send to con-
gress he would name about 500 000,-
600 and not above sos 100000 as
the amount of the treasury dencit
for the fiscal year ending June 80
1898. The secretary said that he
expected the receipts from customs
to increase steadily and that in the
spring months he anticipated quite
large importations

the "absolute unselfshness OF every.

unanimity and "unsel6shness" dis

when it comes to a division Of the
swag that the other quality of human
nature asserts itself. How very re-
