comes from professional ward politi-
clans who are robbed Of all opportu
nifty to monkey" with the returns.
They bring the charge that the ma
chine does not insure absolute secrecy,
since outsiders can tell when a voter
splits his ticket by listening to the
clicks when the buttons are pushed.
But the fault is a trivial one, and as
compared with the Australian ballot,
the machine is at no disadvantage in
this regard for it is easy enough to
Judge by the time voter spends maxi
ing his ballot whether or not he is
splitting. 1t has also been argued that
voter may make mistakes on the
machine, and, having made them, there
is no possibility of reetifcation. But
voters also make mistakes on the Aus
tralian ballot. Probably the percentage
of errors is about the same in both
forms of voting.

The Japs as Filibusterers.

~ APIDLY progressing in many
ways. the Japanese seem to be
~ acquiring some of the peculiar
arts and traits Of the Yankees. They
are not only ingenious, they are strict
ly ION the trade" They are not pro-
found moral philosophers, or If they
are they do not always put their con-
eeptions OF morality into practice. Just
now they are carrying on profitable
filibustering business with the Fill
pinos. They have arms and ammuni-
ton to sell and they are selling them.
We have right to put a stop to the
traflic-if we can. It is easier said than
done. The filibusterlng steamers know
all the ms and outs of the island Of
Luzon as well as Of the business in
which they are engaged, and they are
eluding our vigilance with remarkable
success. Just before the war with
Spain a number of Americans did the
very same thing for Cuba, and although
they We're officially warned to stop, the
Americans as a people were inclined to
pat the filibusterers on the back as
good fellows. The Japs, however,
haven't any particular sympathy for
the Filipinos-it's precious little they
care about the merits of the war; They
are filibustering for what there is in it.
Where the Filipinos get the money to
| buy is something of a mystery-but
| they have it.

that made by a majority In the Mon

counted Fred Whiteside cut and ]. H.

Of the opportunities for fraud to a
minimum, accuracy in collecting and
compiling returns, and auickness with
which the result may be made known
after the closing of the polls. So far
as the STANDARD has observed the testi-

IT is not easy at this distance to I'M
1 derstand the workings of New
York boxing-contest law 1t surely
is an intricate continuance and moves
in mysterious way its wonders to
perform. 1t permitted Messrs. Jeffries
and Sharkey to stand up and pound
each other for twenty-five rounds with
as much determination and emphasis
as each was capable of developing.
But when two or three nights ago
James Jeffries and his brother John
undertook to give a friendly "sparring
exhibition" of four rounds at Roster
& Biafs theater, they were promptly
arrested by the police on a. charge of
violating the very same law. 1t seems
that sparring exhibitions must be held
a'by domestic incorporated athletic
association is a building leased by 1t
for athletic purposes only for at least
one year, or in building owned and
occupied by such association"
In other words, New York seems to
be trying the high-license system of
regulating prize fighting. Theaters
and ordinary places Of amusement may
not have the privilege of exhibiting
boxers in the most friendly of set-tos.
The business Is turned over to a sort
of pugilistic trust-another monopoly,

INSTANTLY KILLED.

Urbana, Iowa. Nov. n.-Clarence
BHrrell, son of Banker ]. G. Burrell,
was instantly killed to-day by an ex-
plosion of dynamite which wrecked the
bank building and partially destroyed
the Monitor general store.
He had just opened the doors OF his
private bank for the days business,
when there was smothered explosion
in the Monitor store next door. He
rushed into the building, and a moment
later, when Burrell reached the rear
of the building, a second explosion o.
greater force occurred. Pieces or
wreckage hurled through the air by tbs
second shock struck Burrell in the neck,
decapitating him. Another missile PEN
etrated his heart Fire, following the
explosion, destroyed both buildings,
entailing a heavy loss.
The bank vault and store safe, how
ever. were not damaged The cause of
the explosion is not known, but the au-
thorities are working on the theory that
it was done by incendiaries.

Progress of the Boer War.

I sion OF last weeks pfOeee1lnSSl IN
South Africa, the British held their
own all; along the lire. and, in all the
fighting that's occurred the Beers got
the worst Of it. At Ladysmith General
White is exchanging shells at long
range withl General Joubert. Neither,
apparently, is, inflieting much damage
on the ether. and White Is reasonably
Rpnfldent Of Instability to hold out un-
til reinforcements arrive 'FRONT.' Butler.
The dispatches sent out from London
were more optimistic in tone than dur
ing the preceding week, but there is
reason to believe that the optimism is
largely feigned. England is still acute
~ worried. She realizes that she has
entered upon one OF the most formid-
able military enterprises in which she
ever engaged.
It is certain that large numbers of
Cape Colony and Natal Dutch have
joined the burghers. and general up
rising is doubtless imminent, The best
estimates place. the number of Beers
in the field at $4,000, this being exclu-
sive of the reserve forces on duty in
the Transyaal and thet Orange Free
State. The Transvaal alone, it is said,
could not muster more than $4,000, and
the total strength of the Orange
Free State, including every man
1T to bear arms does not exceed To-
900. obviously, therefore. the Beers
havsreceived accessions from the Cape
have the active sympathy of all the
Dutch elements in South Africa is man
ifest, ana that this sympathy may Gull
inmate in a general uprising is one of
the possibilities that England has to
face and dread.
One of the striking incidents of the
war is the address issued last week by
President Steyn to the Orange Free
State burghers. AS calm, dispas-
sionate review of England's actions
towards the people Of South Africa, it is
a severe arraignment. Nor can 1t be
called the talk of a biEoted man who
wishes to preserve his people, their
manners and customs intact at the ex-
pense of progress and civilization.
Another feature Of the week was the
address of Lord Salisbury last Thurs
day. Salisbury has at length gone over
to the extreme position Of Chamber
lain. who calmly dispenses with all
consideration of meun and tuurn and
says in effect that England must have
full control in South Africa because
she wants 1t. Lord Salisbury expresses
gratitude for "the sympathy OF the
United States" with England in the
present war, but upon what he bases
such an extraordinary statement is not
known. That, there are many Ameri-
cans who syn1pathize with England
may not be disputed, but that there is
anything approaching a unanimous
American sentiment in favor of the
English cause no American will con-
tend. On the contrary American SEN
tirnent has been crystalizing the other
way. While the press of the country
is divided, preponderance is pro-Boer.
Most of the exchanges that come to
this office vigorously esppuse the cause
of the Transvaal. Whatever may be
Lord Salisbury's understanding, If any.
with the United States government, he
has been misinformed as to the atti-
tude of the American people.
