the electorate, yet we say "the majority
rules"
The trouble is that we ignore or en-
tirely forget the difference between the
voters and the representatives, and per-
sistently Confound the latter with the
former.
By means OF the preferential ballot
proportional representation every
voter in the State could be represented,
and laws enacted by such bOdy-still
retaining the present provision Of the
constitution as to the necessary major
ity-would represent not constructive
but an actual majority Of the electorate.
This would suffice for all ordinary
legislation.
But, in order that the voters may ex-
ercise their full sovereignty, laws that
affect the general well-being, or con-
cerning which there is much uncertainty
as to the peoples will, and all laws car
rying extraordinary appropriations,
should be submitted to the people for
their approval or veto. This is the ref
erendum.
Should the representatives fail to en-
act a law desired by the people, the
people themselves should have the right
and power to cause such law to be sub
mitted to direct vote Of the State
without the Intervention Of the repre-
sentatives. This is the initiative.

PROHIBITION IN CANADA.

For the first time in history an entire
nation is to vote on the question Of pro-
hibitiOn of the liquor traffic. To-mOr-
row the plebescite on the question will
be taken throughout Canada, and the
country will be put on record Both
sides have been actively at work for
some time, and all indications seem to
point that the prohibitionists have the
best OF their adversaries Agitation al
ways leaves good results, and in any
event much good will be done for the
cause of temperance by the campaign
that has been carried on.
If the prOhibitionists of Canada win
this first battle they Will be obliged to
be on the alert to keep their ground.
The commercial element opposing them
will have more at stake than ever before,
and the adoption Of prohibition in Can
ada will not mean its success there by
a long ways, any more than 1t has In
Kansas.

Yes, It's Disgusting.

MOtorman and Conductor,
How disgusting 1t is to the American
worker to watch Congress and the So
called statesmen of this country in their
attempt to extend our markets to for
eign lands, while negleCting home con-
sumption, shipping shoes and clothing to
foreign countries while men and women
at home are barefooted and hungry;
hunting foreign markets for American
flour, meat and fuel, while American
men, women and children are freezing
and starving at home. Is it not about
time that the people rise up and elect
a Congress who will legislate In the
interests of American man and woman
hood-yes, one that will the carry out

Santa Fe Reduces Oraln Rates.
Pitsburg, Kas.

Chicago, September 24.-An open re-
duction in grain rates from Kansas
points to all of its terminals, including
Chicago, Mississippi river points and
Galveston, was made to-day by the Atch-
isOn, Topeka & Santa Fe. The cut
amounts to cents per 100 pounds on
wheat and cents per 100 pounds on
corn. This will make the rate on both
wheat and corn from Kansas points to
Chicago just 10 cents per 100 pounds, the
former rate on wheat having been 10
cents and that on corn ~ cents.

Persistent Democracy.

Democracy means the rule Of the peO-
pie, and democrat is one who believes
in democracy in that sense. In this
sense all American citizens claim to be
democrats.
To be effective the power Of the people
must be persistent.
It must not lapse for a single moment.
Effective voting and direct legislation
will retain the sovereign authority in
the hands Of the people, perpetually and
without discrimination.
Can this be done in large State like
Kansas?
We think 1t can.
The Topeka platform demands the in
itiative and referendum, and also pro-
portional representation.
The adoption of these methods, 1t is
firmly believed, would secure the rule
Of the people.
Every voter in the State should be
represented in the Legislature by man
for whom he actually voted, and every
law should be enacted by an actual ma
jority of the voters, either through their
representatives or by their direct vote.
We are in the habit of saying that the
voters, or at least a majority Of them,
enact our laws, and the statement is
accepted as a truism.
1t is, however, very far from the
truth.
The members of Legislature receive
and represent, at the best, only ma
jOrity of the votes and vOters-Very Of
ten not even that
In Kansas the house consists Of 125
members.
The constitution requires that on its
final passage a bill must have at least
63 of the 1875 votes.
This is called a constitutional major
ity and helps to make the average Kan
san believe that in his State the major
ity rules.
A few moments thought will show
how untenable this position is.
There are 100000 voters in Kansas,
but 10000 Of them actually elect the
entire 125 members.
OF course the other 10000 voters,
having been on the losing side in their
respective districts, are practically dis
franchised; they are certainly not rep
resented.
The constitutional majority" Of So
members represents not more, as a rule,
thar $4,000 of the 100000 voters, that Is
about one-fourth of the whole number,
yet they are competent to enact any law
they see fit.
Looking merely at the house, the So
is clear majority Of the 125 members
composing it, but they represent, as al
ready pointed out, only One-fOurth OF

Smith Goes Home Today.

There has been quarrel in progress
since Thursday morning in the office
Of the secretary of the board of trade
and there will be no signs of an abate-
ment of the trouble until after IL
o'clock today. Garrett Smith, secre-
tary-elect of the Wilkes Barre board
of trade, and Secretary Atherton, of
the Scranton board, are the joint causes
of the quarrel; or, may be the latter is
the cause, for if he had not enticed
Mr.. Smith into a visit the bother
wouldn't have happened.
There's a family feature mixed up
in it. The secretary and the secret
ary-elect married sisters so 1t was nat
ural that the Scranton secretary felici-
tated his Wilkes Barre brother-i law
when the latter was recently elected.
That was all right-but the mistake
was made when the Scrantonian in
vited Mr.. and Mrs. Smith up for a
few days visit with the understand
ing that Mr. Smith was to loaf around
the secretary's office, in the Board of
Trade building. and receive some prac-
tical pointers on how to successfully
conduct the live business end of a
hustling, local body of industry and
commerce.
The Wilkes Rarrean hasn't assumed
office yet, but he is very apt scholar.
He was mute at first but soon caught
on to the elementry parts of the legiti-
mate booming art ana declined to
stand under and let Atherton traduce
the town down the valley while ex-
pounding the principles of board of
trade business in Scranton. Smith,
through observation, could stand the
illustrating of Scranton's thrift and
progression, but when his own town
was rung in as a horrible example he
filed an objection. That was on
Thursday afternoon. The objection was
met with further oratorical traduce-
ment on Atherton's part and trouble
began.
At any hour during yesterday call
ers at the board of trade rooms found
two men in excited argument. One
was seated on the edge of a revolving
desk chair and the other on the edge
Of nearby settee. Both faces were
thrust forward, four hands were be-
ing violently pounded on the furniture
in close proximity to the debaters
countenances and the talk was con-
slant and loud.

NEW METHOD OF MINING.
II Is Being Experimeuted With at One
of the Galleries Near HazIeton.
Description Of Machine.

The Hazleton Sentinel contains the
following concerning a test of the Har-
rison coal mining machine made at the
collery of A. S. Van Wickle. at Coler-
aine, near Hazleton
A technical description of the apparatus
would be unirteligible to the average
reader. 1t is nothing more than cyl
inder, from which a piston shoots in and
out with unremitting industry. TO the
rear end of the cylinder are attached two
handles for the operator to guide the
piston or drill by the cylinder borne by
an axle resting upon two wheels. The
drill was tearing out coal so last that
it took one man all his time to shovel
ii back while the other man directed the
drill. These machines are designed for
use in small veins and where the pitch
is but nominal
They have been used with great success
in bitumnous regions but judging from
the facility with which the machine dug
out the chunks it seems surprising that
they have not been introduced in the hard
coal regions before. The idea is to have
the drill make a. cut along the floor for
I,the entire width of the chamber prob
ably ten inches high and five feet in
| depth. The solid mass thus weakened, a
| comparatively small charge of powder
| can take down the entire cut. The saw
| ing in powder is estimated to he 15 per
cent. Two urskilled laborers can readily
do the business, and theiy easily take
| the place of four skilled miners.
As stated, the machine is now being
| used as an experiment, and its exact ef-
| fciency has not been computed. In a
small vein of this kind where digging is
| invariably hard and tedious by the old
| process. it is estimated that 315 square
| yards can he removed in ten hours. The
| vein here was comparatively fiat. AL
| ready the inventor has conceived new
| idea since coming into the hard coal
| mine. and proposes to place new at
| tachment which will enable him to cut
, vertical slices from the vein on either
| side of the chamber. then force out car
| load sizes of Jumps intact without pow
der
| One of the present drawbacks may pos
| sibly be the quantity of dirt or fine coal
| made. In hard veins this dust is sure to
! be greater, but arrangements have al
| ready been made for computing the etti-
| cheney i'm all phases. The coal thus cut
| has been packed away in barrels. This
| will be, run over segmentS of small mesh,
| and the whole carefully weighed. The
| cost of machine, operation. wear and
| tear, powder, etc, will figure in the de-
| ciSion, but enough has already been
| demonstrated to show that even if the
| present machine is not successful from
| the economic point of view Improvement 5
| will be made which are sure 20 displacc
| many of the hand or crank drills. and
with these will go the expert miner to
| look for heavy pitches where the ma
| chimes have not yet invaded or to other
employment congenial.

Fakin q MT. Jones.

Another tale of pretending deaf
muteness comes from the city hall. A
few days ago a shadow darkened the
door of Mayor Bailey's reception room,
wherein Secretary Beamish is perma-
nently located. There was nothing par
ticularly startling about a shadow in
the doorway, but it was the cause of
the shadow which compelled Secretary
Beamish to remark Here comes that
man Jones again with his complaint
about bad boys"
III tend to him." said one of the
city hall clerks, who was lounging in
the room. You sneak into the mayors
office and I'll take your chair" Jones
the complainant, stalked across the
broad floor.
Where's the mayors secretary?" he
asked. rather Indignantly.
Some one of the half dozen city offic-
ials present pointed at the bogus Sec
retary, and said: you've got to speak
loud to him; he's little hard of hear
ing" Jones went up to the fake Sec
retary and said in a moderate tone:
II came to see about them boys"
What's .that?" asked the secretary
bending his head.
Boys" repeated Jones.
"Eh? You'll excuse me, but / can't
hear we'll"
Boys! l say; boys! bad boys!"
Eh?"
Il said bad boys. Tn Jones, under

was yelling at the top of his voice
"B-o-y-s!" he shrieked, spelling out the
word.

kind of an administration Is this?"

chair; you'll have to see the secre-
