PEOPLE RULE E~vERYwHERE.

Not since the days of Cromwell
has England faced a more serious
crisis than now confronts that nation.
That for which Cromwell and his
followers struggled years ago seems
about to be realized, only by more
peaceful methods. The march of
popular government goes steadily on.
The King of England has long been q
mere tgurehead, but he is nov face
to face with having what little pre-
negatives that have been left him
taken away.
1t is practically certain that the
English people are, on November rs,
to vote on whether or not the veto
power of the House of Lords shall be
abolished. If the Lords lose this
power 1t will mean the abolition of
the House of Lords. entirely. 1t then
will be only a short step to the
Crown itself. For a while, perhaps,
the people may continue to recognize
royalty, but it will be only a question
of time when, realizing that a king
and a royal household is an unneces-
rsary expense and a burden on the
people, they, too, will have to go and
England will take her place among
the republics of the world.
Ever since the American colonies
threw off the yoke of England and
established a government of theil
own, the trend has been toward th'
government of the people. by the
people and for the people. France
long ago, became a republic and sh,
has prospered greatly since tn,
change. Portugal is the latest o
European monarchies to take such
step and a bright future opens u
before the Portuguese republic. 1t :
only a question of a short time whel
Spain will JOIN Portugal in this re
gard.
The English people are too en-
lightened a race to remain satisfied
with the old condition of affairs. /
is plain that the king is worried

BALLOT REFORMS.

While certain persons in New
Jersey are agitatlng the adoption
here of an entirely different style OF
ballot. it is interesting to know that
in Pennsylvania there is a move
ment on foot to adopt the New Jer-
sey ballot. To decide on the most
satisfactory way for the people to
exercise their right Of franchise at
the polls seems to be a difficult prob
lem, That 80 many men are interest
ed in the matter Is encouraging,
however. The tendency all over the
country Is to purify the ballot and TO
make it easier for the people to 'ex-
press their preference without inter
ference by party bosses.
There are those who Insist that
the right kind of ballot will elimi-
nate the party names entirely and
the names of all the candidates will
be arranged alphabetically on a
single ballot and the voter will place
a cross opposite the name of these
men for whom he wishes to vote.
These ballots would not be allowed
out of the polling places.
In Pennsylvania those who are
advocating the New Jersey ballot as
now used in this state, lay great
stress on the west pocket" vote.
The EVENING NEWS has always
contended that it is a great privilege
for the voter to be able to fix his
ballot at home, where he can do so
at his leisure and without Interrupt
ton. He then goes to the polls
knowing just what he is going to do
and he does 1t. Every politician will
admit that it Is the west pocket"
vote that is the hardest to account
for. This feature Of the New Jersey
ballot we would not abolish.
The great reform needed in this
state is prohibiting the free and I'M
distribution of the official
ballots by the politicians: The Off
cial ballots should be sent out by the
and at state expense. One
ballot of every party and only n
be sen to each voter and with
them should be sent a full set of
"~pasters" for every candidate on the
respective tickets. The voter could
then pick out the ballot he wanted
and paste it to suit himself. This
would still permit the privilege of
fixing the ballot at home, but 1t
would eliminate the evil of having |
ballots prepared in rival politi-
cal camps and sent out, often with
the intention of fooling the voter.
Incidentally, 1t is interesting to
note that in Pennsylvania they are
discussing the plan of closing the
polls at 5 O'Clock in the afternoon,
the same as is done in New York
state. At present the polls in Penn
sylvania open at Z A. M, and close at
Z P. NJ. By opening the polls at 6
o'clock the Pennsylvanians believe
they can easily close the polls at s
But In New Jersey the polls
already open at 6 o'clock. There is
reason why they should not be
at s o'clock IN the afternoon.

Communal Loyalty.

There is nothing so beneficial for a
community Of human beings, large or
small, as loyalty to whatever good OBJ
ject is advocated by such community.
Disloyalty to town and state is the
most dangerous element that can hap

a town is no good and that state is
no good that will do more damage in
one year than it will take 25 years to
overcome.
A person who scatters a wrong impress

grievance is little better than the mon

RAISE UNEVEN
Shipper Says Proposed Increase Would
FAN On 10 Per Cent of Ton
mage

Washington, Nov. 20. Expert freight
tariff testimony marked yesterdays ses-
sion of the Interstate commerce COM
mission, which is investigating the pro-
posed advances in rates in the official
classification territory.
Henry G. Barlow of Chicago, direc-
tor Of the Chicago Association Of Com
mercc, said the class rates between New
York and Chicago were unjust and there
fore unreasonable and the proposed adj
yanees were not fairly distributed He
said the railroad plan put the entire in
crease on only 10 per cent. of the freight
tonnage
Mr. Barlow's declaration that any in
creased freight rate always fell on the
consumer was questioned By Chairman
Knapp. Mr.. Knapp asked the witness
how he figured that an increase Of less
than five mills on a pair Of shoes, when
the increase of freight rates promised
general prosperity" would be reflected
on the price of shoes man wore,
Mr. Knapp explained that he recently
had been shown some figures regarding
shoes which he had verified The manu-.
fscturer had increased his price Is cents
pair, the retailer As cents pair,
under requirement from the manu-
facturer, and owing to the freight I'M
crease.
Mr.. Barlow said that when manu-
facturer shipped 100000 cases of shoes
a year, probably on or per cent.
profit, and Is per cent. rate increase
was imposed on him, he probably would
raise the price 10 cents a pair. as the
manufacturer would not be willing to
suffer the loss. Then the retailer would
increase the price to the consumer.
While discussing packing house pro-
duee rates, Mr.. Barlow brought the
name Of George w. Perkins Of the J. r.
Morgan company Of New York again in
to the investigation. Mr.. Barlow said
that he understood that Mr.. Perkins
agreed with the packers on an advance
of only one-half of what has been pro-
posed
did he purport to represent the rail-
roads, the beef shipper or any one else 2"
demanded Frank Lyon, attorney for the
commission
II don't know" replied the witness,
II am told Mr.. Perkins came as repre-
sentative of Mr. Morgan as peace
maker between the packers and the
railroads"
