Toronto Highlanders WIN Not Parade
In Honor of Dewey.


Toronto. September s4.-A special from
Ottawa, TO the Mail and Empire tonight

The 4sth Highlanders Of Toronto will
not be granted permission to visit New
York to take part in the reception of
Admiral Dewey The military DEPART

cation from the district commanding
officer at Toronto, embodying the request
Of Lieut. Col. Cosbyand his officers for
his permission to make the trip, but
when 1t does come an answer In the mega
tive will be returned. The view held here
Is that while Admiral Dewey is to be the
central figure In the New York cslebra-
tion, yet after all the demonstration will
really be . gioriiication of the United
States In the Spanish war. Under these
circumstances therefore II is considered
very unpelitic for British regiment to

There are two classes of opticians.
One class travels from town to

patrons or not / cannot say but
they certainly never go back. If
the glasses are right you have lost
nothing by patronizing this class
except the extra price which they
charge for travelling expenses. IL
they are wrong you have to pay
somebody else to make them
right. The other class settles
permanently in one town. They
always stand ready to back up
their guarantee and to make good
all errors. They have sufficient
confidence in their ability to do
skillful work that they are not

VOTING BY MACHINERY.
Nebraska to Try Automatic system of
Selecting Candidates.

The state OF Nebraska has ordered
5000 voting machines at $500 each. a
total OF $1.600.000. says the St Louis
Globe Democrat. This machine is pure
ly mechanical in construction. The
regulations are complete In every de-
tail. Split tickets can be voted as
readily as straight tickets. The booth
stands six and one-half feet in height
and Is about four feet square, giving
ample room for voting. Though made
OF steel. II can be carried about with
out difficulty, although rather heavy.
The voter. upon entering the booth,
faces square steel box about three
feet In dimensions and three inches
thick. On the face of this square Is
a long. narrow row of glazed open
ings, in which appear the different
tickets to be voted Each party ticket
is printed on slip of its own. The
candidates for each office are in align
ment and the whole arrangement is
similar 10 the regular Australian ball
lot But at the point where the voter
usually puts cross is q nickel-plated
button and at the top of each party
ticket Is lever. AS the first vote is
cast bell rings This informs the
judges that voter has started to cast
his ballot. A straight party man has
only 70 pull the lever and his vote Is
cast. A man who wants to scratch
registers his vote by the buttons.
When the straight ticket is voted. by
pulling the lever down. the mechanical
counters all down the line register one
vote for each candidate. On the out
side of the booth the voting register is
locked by three different locks. one OF
which is given to each of the judges.
