CURIOUS VOTING SYSTEM.

In some parts OF Switzerland the
people vote faltos etlser and "a { once by
Showing their hands. The Landesge-
ueinds is the name given 10 the sys-
tenn of voting practiced in several can
tons in the German part Of Switzerland,
and election day is the last Sunday IN
April This form Of voting is the old
est in Switzerland.
More than 10, GEO people may be gath
cred in the big market place. Some or
the men have come twenty or thirty
miles to vote. for every man of voting
age is fined II he does not report at the
voting place. Every voter carries a
sword. often OF antique and bean dful
pattern. This sword serves mercy as
a badge to indicate that the bearer Is
a peaoeful.vOter, and is usually carried
IN the -hand, strapped up with an UNI
breiIa The yellow platform on which
the candidates stand also is decorated
with two huge swords
One reason why the people are so
satisfied with their present form Of
government is that, while they had eX-
pended large sums in public work with
cut raising the taxes In any way, the
public debt of the canton was only 153
francs (S36.60). And there are places
IN Switzerland that can boast better
than this. In Stein am Rhein the peo-
pie not only have no taxes to pay, but,
on the contrary. each citizen Reoeives
an annual dividend from the communal
property. Naturally, citizenship Ia this
place is hard TO acquire.

vote was settled in about an hour, and

Senator THIman'S Speech.


\ speech of sensational interest
sensational alike in its form and in
its substance-was delivered in the
Senate of the United States yesterday
by Mr.. Tillman. of South Carolina.
In its substance. it was an arraign-
ment of the President OF the United
States on charges thai he has usurped
the authority of the Senate. threat
ened the members OF both houses of
Congress. aindertaken TO suppress the
newspapers, and in leaving unpun-
ished an offense against woman
committed by his aiGes at the White
House, acquiesced in that offense.
In it's form 1t was diatribe filled
with invective and abuse. a bitter and
malicious harangue.
If all the charges made by Mr.. TIL
man were well founded in fact, his
speech would yet be utterly beyond
justification for its intampe rance. II
would still deserve the severest con-
demnation for not having been made
in executive session. 1t would still be
a discredit 10 him and a disgrace tC
the Senate for having been conceived
in a spirit OF malevolence and abuse

Mason and Read.

The meeting Of ex-senator William T.
Mason. Of Illinois. and Opie Read in the
Senate wing Of the Capitol recently re-
minded many Of the onlookers OF
similar meeting OF these two distinguish n
ed men in the lobby OF a Chicago hotel
at the last National Republican conven-

politically bent friend. The same can

Congressman as COuncilmen.


1t has become too much the GUS
tom in the District to abuse Con-
gress. To be sure, Congress has not
seemed to mind it much; and, to be
sure again, Congress has occasional
ly legislated for the District with a
pig-headed obfuscation which almost
defies patience.
But two things have marked the
deliberations of Congress lately, with
respect to the District of Columbia,
which should make us of the Capital
thankful. The first is that the mem
bers of both houses are coming more
and more to view legislation for the
District without political bias; and
the second is that the whole body
of members in general. and those
who serve on the District committees
in particular, are coming more and
more TO view that legislation as resi-
dents OF the territory to be affected.
The effect of the first progress is
distinctly to our advantage. For
while the Organization" of the
House disposed of the District accord
ing to a party schedule. bills and pro-
posed allowances were subject not
only to the Judgment of fewer minds,
but were constantly regarded in their
relation to the national appropria-
ton bills and their effect on the
whole amount expended by that Con-
gress. Once the political view is
abandoned, both the members of the
committee and the members of the
whole House feel free TO indulge their
interest-and the more interest Con-
gressmen can be induced 10 take in
the affairs of the Capital the better
/ 1t is for us.
+ The effect Of the second progress
/ is to create this interest. AS long as
members regarded themselves a:
/ bardened one DAY a week with Dis
/ trict ward matters. the two District
committees were forced to fight fol
every concession and the men in the
committees who were genuinely in
terested in the District We're forced
TO fight there. But now that the!
have all begun 10 think of them
selves as residents-not men ik'
Senator Gallinger alone, who ha'
been Washingtonian for twent!
years, or Mr.. Babcock. who has live'
here nearly as iong-but the nes
men. Che committees can bring VI
District matters with confidence il
both the interest and liberality O
the two houses.
All this is no dream II will b
manifest TO eny resident of the Dis
trict who will take the trouble 4

) ance. And it is a mighty good thin
foI the Capital.
