Oil Creek lake, in Crawford cbuntyi
sixteen miles north of this city, fenced
in the lake, built a large hotel, and es

forwarded a petition to Governor Beaver

HIS TASK.
The President-Elect Said to Have
His Cabinet Timber Selected.
WHO THEY AEE, NOT KNOWN
OflU'o Reeki-M Appealing to Mr*. Harrison
to Intercede In Their Behalf—Tho
War Hetwotm Gov. Church and the
Legislature drawing Hot.
INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 12.—There is rea
son to believe that the president-elect
has about concluded the task of select
ing his cabinet. Whether or not the
favored eight have received their formal
invitation is not known, but that I10 is
now putting the finishing touches upon
the cabinet and turning his attention
more'especially to his inaugural address
is the opinion of his most intimate
friends.
Mrs. Harrison continues to receive a
large number of letters. As many as
twenty-five came to her in one mail,
the majority asking her to intercede
with the general to secure the writer au
office of some kind. In accordance with
the rule adopted by her shortly after the
general's election,she consigns all letters
of au office seeking character to the
wabte basket.
Gen. Harrison's visitors were from
widely different
sections—Massachusetts,
Washington Territory, and New Mex
ico being, represented. Delegate-elect
John. W. Allen of AValla Wjilla, Wash
ington Territory, spoke urgently on be
half of his people i'or the admission of
Washington Territory, aloug with Da-

Were united and anxious for statehood.
James A. Spradling of Santa Fe, N. M.,
managing editor of the New Mexican,
called to advocate Gen. Powell Clayton
for a place in the cabinet. Spradling is
an earnest advocate of statehood for
New Mexico, and vigorously repels the
charge that the people of that territory
are not prepared and able to successfully
assume an independent government.
The statement widely published that
the official records of the legislature and
courts are kept in the Spanish language
only, he declares is a falsehood.
Church $$ust Go.
BISMARCK, Dak., Feb. 12.—The war
between Governor Church and the legis
lature is still on. A resolution was
adopted which will have the effect of
cutting off one way the governor had to
.return the fire of the legislature. This
resolution declares that no communica
tion foreign to the business of the legis
lature and the territory shall be reau to
the house, and the speaker and clerk are
made the BO!O judges of what reports
shall be received. The avowed purpose
of the resolution is to prevent the gov
ernor from making another such attack
as the one 011 Saturday, when he "went
for" the legislature and his own prede
cessor. The feeling in the matter grows
more bitter .all the time, and there is
once more some strong talk of adjourn
ment until the successor of Governor
Church shall have been appointed. This
action had about been given up until the
recent engagement, ami now the liepub
IKHHH in the frou»e aim council are will
ing to do almost anything to dtl'eat
Governor Church.

its efforts to secure honest elections, es

THE PRESIDENTS' AGREEMENT.

Craiili in KnllroiMl Stock*.
CHICAOO, Feb. 13.—President Hugliitt
of the Northwestern road, was asked
what progress had been made in secur
ing signatures to the presidents'agree
ment. "The roads which did not sign
immediately have signed since. We ex
pect ed to have another' meeting of the
presidents this week, but 1 have learned
that it would be impossible- for some of

word'been received from the Chicago,
Burlington and Northern. The Illinois
Central has not changed its refusal to
sign, and the Chicago, Burlington and
i^uinoy will not sign until the higuatures

general ndici-rH of (lie I'oiids that the
presidents' agreement would not ma

the backward roads into line cmi ie in

presidents, it is thought that all effort to
form the inter-state commerce associa
tion will cease. In this event. ^Receiver
McNulta, of the Wabash, is fearful of
not only a crash in railway stocks, but
also of a disastrous financial crisis. The
presidents are, however, intensely in

ment, and stronger canvassing than ever
will be done.

ELECICN REFORM.
The Australian Hl'Htcm With Home
SlodiUeatlona Endorsed.
Irish World: Popnlar attention in
this country has for some time been
oonoentrated upon what is now known
as the Auitraliau or Massachusetts elec
tion laws, which have praotioally been
enaeted in Qroat Britain and several ol
her oolohies, and so far with satisfactory
results.
The New Tork lenislatnte passed a
similar bill (.known
I.B
tbe Haxton bill),
bnt it was vetoed by tbe governor,
nominally, for speoial reasons, which
may yet be reconciled. Tbe governors
Of Missouri, Michigan and New Jersey,
in their recent messages to the legisla
ture-of these state*, urge the passage of
snob-laws very stioogly
Governor Morehouse, of Missouri, re
marks: "By enforcing absolute seoreoy
of .the ballot intimidation and bribery
may be prevented. .When citizens are
required to vote in sooh a manner as to
be aasund that the way in whiob they
vote oannot be known to any but them
selves the timid no longer tear and the
venal will not be tiosted. This is dem
onstrated as well by experience as by
reason. Until 1872 the suffragein Ire*
land was controlled through tbe inunda
tion of tenants by tbe landlords, end in
England wholesale bribery was a feature
of elections. To prevent bribery the
British parliament adopted what is
known as tbe 'Australian system' of
voting. Under this system, owing to the
perfection of its seoreoy, bribery at tbe
polls has disappeared, and for tbe same
reason Intimidation has so far ceased to
be a faotor in Irish elections
that tbe representatives of
tbe landlord class who formerly
sat in parliament frou» Ire!aid have
given place to Parnell and hia followers
These and similar considerations
bare induoed tbe adoption of eleotoral
reforms outlined above in Australia,
Great Britain, Ireland and Canada,
where it has long been in saooeesfnl
operation, and in tbe state of Massachu
setts, where it is to go into effeot nest
year. To the election laws of these
countries and to the ballot act of Massa
chusetts, as well as tbe ballot bill passed
by both houses of tbe New York legisla
ture at its last session,. but vetoed by
the governor of that state, reference may
be had (or tbe details of the reform."
A bill has already been presented in
the state of Nejlr Jersey which will be
pressed for early action, and it is not
only in aooord with thsi suggestions but
in accordance with the earnestly
expretstd wishes of the knights of labor,
the federation of labor, and prominent
republicans, democrats, and indepen
dents. Xtssalient points are as follows
First. Tha ballot shall be printed by
the public, tbe aatn^p of all candidates
being printed upon a single ballot under
their proper designations.
Second. "When the voter goes to his
polling place to vote be reoeiTes a ballot
from tbe eleotion«. ffloers. He takes this
ballot Into a private compartment and
prepares it by marking an in tbe
margin opposite the names of the persons
for whom be wishes to vote. He then
fojds it, immediately votes, and leaves
tbe polling room.
Third, The oompartments are to be
situated in a railed enclosure end no one
is permitted inside this enslosure save
persons enttriag for .the purpose of
voting, and no more voters are allowed
in the enclosure at any time than there
are oompartments.
Fourth, Only election offloers challeng
ing agents of parties or candidates and
persons actually engaged in voting are
al'owed in tbe polling room.
Fifth, Only tbe ballot printed by the
public oan be used all others are void.
Sixth, Political parties that polled
five per cent of the votes oast at the pre-1
ceding election can hsve the nemes ©f
(heir oaiid'dstes printed upon the ballot
aader lha proper party names and in
dependent candidates may have their
names printed by filing proper nomina
tion papers signed ty a specified amber
of voters.
Seventh, Blank spaces are loft on the
ballot in which thi voter oou write or
insert the names of personB for whom he
may wish to vote not appearing npon
the ballot.
We think the bill ip a long step in the
right diruotion.
