VOTING AWAY FROM HOME.

Secretary Bryan has proposed that
arrangements be made to allow men
away from home at election time to
send their ballots home by mail. Such
a scheme might be a great help for
good government Again it might be
an excellent opportunity for whole
sale corruption.
If the bill were not drawn with the
utmost care and designed to cover
a multitude of lOophOles it would be
the means to many illegal votes in
cities. But if the strictest of require
ments be made for the handling OF
such votes, the arrangement would
be a blessing. II would add the votes
of many clean and progressive citizens
many more of this type, barring
abuse, than of the easily corruptible
and ignorant kinds.
Most of the votes added would be
those of professional travelling men.
As class these men are well inform
ed on public questions and take a
broad and progressive view. Most of
them are also interested enough to
take the trouble of sending home their
votes. If a plan can be devised to
get the ballots of travelling men it
will be a material help for progressive
government.

the second sale and the man who had
returned the COW was angry because
he had not kept her.
There was the case of the man with
the muscles of his face. We were call
ing for bids on fine horse when we
spied him in the crowd. He jerked
his head and we mistOok it for bid.
This happened several times, and finally
we Knocked the horse down to the man
with the twitching face. After we had
announced his name and price of pur-
chase he came to us and Indignantly
protested that he hadn't bid at all, that
he didn't want the horse. hadn't any
use for il. and refused. in emphatic
language to pay for it. We thought
he was trying to repudiate his bid and
told him we knew he had bid, that
we had seen him do so. and that he
most assuredly would pay for the
horse. Finally, srumbling. he drew
out his check-book and paid for the
horse he didn't want.

noon and then have lunch. leaving the
afternoon for the livestock.
Sometimes in opening sale one or
both of us will make short talk on
the prosperity of the times and jolly
the crowd into good humOr. When
we get started we attend strictly to
business. because it frequently hap

The Schwabe brothers, John &
and James W.. sat back in their chairs
and laughed. They were telling some
of the amusing and unusual features
of their long career as auctioneers.
"One time we were holding a live
stock sale at Eighth and Broadway
we used to hold sales there every Sat
urday in earlier days. We were selling
some COWS that were recommended by
the owner to be splendid mixers and
very gentle. Just as we were empha-
sizing their sentleness. one of the COWS
became frightened and plunged
through the crowd The negro who
had charge of her clutched at her
nose and hung on desperately while
she dragged him through mudholes
and brush clear to Flat Branch before
he finally conquered and brought her
back to the amused crowd. Then the
sale broke up i'm a dog fight
Another time We were selling
some bronchos here in town. The
owner recommended one of them 10
be especially gentle. One of our hang
ers-on, wishing to help us sell the an
imal, walked up, slapped il and mount
ed. The broncho reared. bucked,
threw the man into a mudhOle some
distant away and disappeared down
the street
We made large hog sale for man
in the northwest part of the county
recently. One young man told us be-
fore the sale began that he had come
to buy a pen of hogs. He bid briskly
along with the others and ran the
price to 1915 head. Then he sud
denly concluded that was too much TO
pay. that the stock was not worth il.
He looked at us to see if anyone had
raised the bid, and finding that no one
had. he jumped down from his seat on
the fence and ran off through the fields
as if the dogs were after him. We
hung to till we got another bid before
we announced the hogs sold.
We saw the young man later in the
lot where a number of men were dis
cussing the sale. He clustered up to
us and asked. Why did you knock
those hogs down to me? ! didn't bid
at all
"Oh. you didn't? Then what makes
you think we knocked the hogs down
10 you?"
"Ummm-mm, | heard you did
Well, we didn't. We saw you faint
and fall off the fence and run away, so
We waited for the next bidder"
Thank the Lord said the young
man with a sigh of relief as he walked
away.
AT another sale fellow concluded
that he had bid more than he should
for a COW and calf He brought them
back and said the COW was not as she
was represented to be, that her udder
wasn't sound and that she wouldn't
give milk from two of her teats. We
told him that he must be mistaken, but
the man persisted in his refusal to
keep the COW. So we went to the own
er and arranged to release the man
from his obligation and sell the COW
over again. She brought So more at
