The MACHINE PLAN.
That Method Of Voting Receives
Renewed Attention Because
of New House Bill.
It Provides for a Commission t,
Pass Upon Machines Offered
for Inspection.

/ IL z fv- -rrsH 2 - -s..= .
George W., Armstrong of Minneapolis
introduced an up-toadate voting machine
law In the house this morning. 1t pro-
rides for the repeal Of the laws of 1897
and 1899 and prescribes rules for the Sc
Election and use of voting machines.
| The important feature isl that which pro-
| lvides for commission of three to be ap-
pointed by the governor for four years.
t to examine all voting machines offered.
One is to be ali attorney or patent law
yer, and the other two master mechanics
or graduates of schools of mechanical en-
! gtneering. Their only pay is to be from
the fees. paid by the machine companies.
The fee for an examination is fixed at
5000, to cover all expenses. The commits
sion Is, to publish notices of the examina-
tion in one daily paper of Minneapolis and
one Of st. Paul, and to conduct the ex-
animation publicly in the state capitol.
| Machines approved by this commission
may be used, and rigid requirements will
| be made. The machines must provide
| absolute secrecy In voting, and make it
| impossible to repeat. They must enable
the voter to vote either straight or a
split ticket easily, and to vote for per-
sons whose names do not appear on the
machine. It must also be possible to set
| the machines SO as to restrict women
voters to the offices which they are priv
| ileged to vote, for. - Two different keys
must be Aoquired for locking and unlock
ing the machines, So that no political
party can have access to it without the
consent Of at least one other. The ma
| chimes must have capacity of 900 voters
| day, and must be easily understood and
operated. - =, -. ~-s~
| After the commission has reported IA
vorably on machine it may be adopted
and purchased by county commissioners,
city or village councils, or town super
visors. Money for the purchase may be
raised by tax levy, appropriation from
| the general fund, or by an issue of bonds,
without regard to the limit Of bonded in
debtedness. '.--t-: 49,: .
= A dummy" for the instruction of voters
must be provided with each machine,
Officers at. each polling place where the
machines are used are limited to three
judges, two clerks and one constable
The present law limits election districts
to 400 voters. The Armstrong bill pro-
vidcs that where voting machines are used
800 voters may be included in precinct
The bill was referred to the committee
on elections. Members have taken con
siderable interest In a machine set up in
the main hall Of the capitol and daily ex-
plained by It's general agent, P. &. Sjob-
!om Of Minneapolis, and the Armstrong
bill is likely to receive much attention

Don't be Deceived.

From the Sussex Republican.
Tho proposition of the Union Repubu-
cans should deceive no one If it was
made IN good faith and with the single
purpose Of benehmng the Republican
party Of this State. it would be deserv-
Ing OF consideration This in not the
case The very nature of fhe proceedings
preclude such a ccnclusion. The letter OF
Addicks was conceived written and read
for the purpose OF preparing an argument
10 be used before the next National Con-
vention In fact his absence was part
of Tho programme because he was in
Wilmington all that day. He stayed
away that the letter might be presented Il
and TO add force to It's statements. The
whole proceeding is a deep laid scheme
90 seat the Union Republican delegates
in the next National Convention Of the
Republican party. There is a. need Of
such a proposition at this time; it is too
FAR in advance OF the next political cam
paign unless the Union Republicans fear
that certain developments may occur be-
tween now and fhe opening Of next cam
paign which will necessitai5e greater con.
cessions than they offer at this time. The
action of Addicks and his immediate po.
btical henchmen gives oredence to the
oft repeated rumors that events, over
which they have no control, may eiiml
nate Addicks as a Senatorial candidate.

CONGRESS-.

The Republican caucus for the Sc
lection Of officers of the House as
matter of course. named Representative
Cannon for Speaker and retained the
efficient officers Of the last session
There was nothing but harmony in the
gathering and nothing specially signi-
icant, unless Il wos in the remarks
of the new speaker. In expressing the
dictum that "the speaker is the SER
want and not the master" he voiced the
sentiments OF the people. There is a
feeling that in recent years too much
power has been placed in the hands OF
the presiding officer. In the main II
has worked well. but In the hands OF a
narrow and vain man Il might result
IN intolerable tyranny. Congress is
really governed by the speaker and the
chairmen OF tho important committees.
This Is not in accordance with the
democratic idea nor Is it contemplated
in the very nature Of deliherative as
semblies. Congress has undoubtedly
grown unwieldy from It's great num-
bers and It's deliberations must be di-
rected and check put on the volume
OF oratory that is evor ready to break
out. but any tendency to check fair
and free discussion win ever be un-
popular.
Speaker Cannon intimated that the
work OF the session would be devoted
almost exclusively to the Cuban reel
procity treaty. but conditions have
arisen which will make It impossible
to oonhne Il 20 that AFFAIR. Tho startl-
ing developments OF the Panama aitu-
alton win certainly engage the atten-
tion Of Congress. Il is not reasonable
10 suppose thet being IN session It will
entruat the whole matter to tho Presi-
dent. II is probably fortunate that It
IS In a position to share tho rsspon-
sihllity, Whether financial legisla-
ton win be considered remains TO be
seen.
