cieties President Palma called a special

ton OF the special taxes authorized to meet

held q meeting this afternoon and decided
not to sell at retail any Of the articles on
which taxes were imposed including beer,
spirits. sparkling wines, cider, mineral
waters. cigarettes, matches, &c. Mer-
chants believe that Congress will change

made more equitable, which it Is conceded

CAN'T VOTE As THEY CHOOSE.
Voting Machines In CanastOta Prevent
independent Voting.

UTICA, Oct. 3O.-The voters in the village
of Canastota are alarmed over the possi-
bility of their votes being thrown out,
owing to the construction of the voting
machines recently adopted by the town.
There are four nominees for justice OF the
peace. of which two are to be elected.
The Democrats have two and the Repub-
Leans the same number. There are Il num-
Der OF voters who want to elect John II.
Bell. the Republican nominee, and Henry
Strutz, the Democratic candidate, but
they cannot do it, inasmuch as they are
on the same line in the machine and one
Is locked against the other.
The same trouble occurs where three
Assessors are to be chosen from the six
offered. Many want to vote for W. X.
GrOat on the Republican ticket and Royal
ID. Sweet on the Democratic ticket, but it
cannot be done on the machine, because
one locks the other out. Had these facts
been discovered earlier ballots would
have been printed and the machines thrown
out. The county il safely Republican
and anti-canal, but the candidates who
must suffer through fault Of the machines
appear to have good grounds on which to
appeal in event of their defeat
