.4 FAIR BALLOT-
The proposed federal election law
which has been introduced in congffss
is arousing considerable comment.
Thus far little objection has been de
veloped in the north, but the demo
cratic press of the south has not hesi
tated to make known its opposition.
This shows where the shoe pinches.
The plan proposed seeks to secure an
honest election in every precinct, and
is not intended to affect the rights cf
any lawful voter.
The truth is the solid south does
not want an honest vote. It does not
want to give the government an oppor
tunity to know the actual stale of
affairs Mjxler which a majority is main
tained at the will of a few leaders.
The Mississippi plan of firing can
nons and musketry in each town on
election day to warn the colored re
publican majority to keep away from
the polls is a modern method of ex
pressing the wi'l of the people through
the ballot box. Other methods equally
effective in results are practiced in
ether states.
Many of the southern papers claim
that it would be unwise to discard the
old and well established system ol
voting, which are entirely satisfactory
to the people. If these systems are
wise and honest, no one will be injured
by having a government official, present
as a mere looker-on while the ballots
are being cast and counted. Govern
ment tiupervis'ou can not change Je
suits when honest elections are held.
If this is the case, why should any
one oppose the proposed federal plan
of elections'? Is it because the elec
tions in some parts at the country are
not honestly conducted? Do the op
ponents now seek to shield dishonesty
by opposing the passage cf a law which
is aalculatedto guard the ballot box
from all forms of dishonesty
The perpetuity of the republican
form of government depends largely
upon the purity 4f the ballot.
The principles of true democracy
must be maintained to the extent that
very elector shall have the privilege of
casting Ins ballot and having it counted
as he cast it.
The will of the majority 'emanating
from the conscience and judgment of
the people should be the abiding la v
to guide the administration of govern
mental affairs.
As the popular franchise is the only
way in which the people can give ex
pression of their views on govern
mental affairs, every ballot should
Iiave its full weight in shaping the
policy of the affairs of the nation.
With a view only to making every
vote cany its full weight and influence
the government should supervise the
franchise of the people.
It is now known that United States
exports for October will exceed $90,
000,000. This amount has only been
exceeded three times in the entire his
tory of the country, and those months
were separated by periods of two
years. Exports were $98,000,000 in
in December, 1S80; $93,000,000 in
December, 1882; $91,000,000 in De
ceiuber, 1884. A significant fact is,
these dates were all under a republican
administration.
Hon. J. T. Gregg, of Saiem, has
been selected by L. T. Barin. the new
U. S. marshal for Oregon, as his chief
deputy. This is a good seletion. Mr.
Gregg acted as clerk for Mr. Barin
while he was chairman of the republi
can state committee in '8S.
About the mot needful "job" that
should be done in Corvallis is to have,
what is known as the city hall, en
tirely remodeled. As it now stands
it is not fit to be called a barn.
Theee was 600,000 worth of build
ing done in OreSou City in 1889
$400,000 of it being in mills alone.
No doubt this year will see still laeger
improvements in the falls city.

keys. On the table in front of the
ticker are small piles of paper slips,
three by four inches, and differently
colored. Each tint represents a differ
ent stock, and the price in cabalistic
signs is marked on the appropriate
slip, thus obviating the writing of a
message, however short. As quickly
as a sale or purchase is completed the
fact is wired to the receiving operator,
who marks the sign on the slip, which
is rapidly taken by a messenger to the
other broker. A glance, the trans
action is completed, and the crumbled
slip falls to the floor unintelligible' to
the other broker, and is tossed about
unappreciated, though it may have
been the messenger of fortunes.
These messages are being constantly
sent to and fro, as many as twenty being
received and dispatched in one minute,
and near the closing of the sessions the
floor of the Stock Exchange is parti
colored with these tinted slips. But
these dealings are not confined to any
two exchanges. The Bourse, in Paris;
Exchange Place, in London; the Vien
na and Berlin Bourses, as well a3 the
Stock Exchanges at Philadelphia, Bos
ton, Baltimore and Chicago are in
telegraphic communication with the
New York exchanges, and many of the
members of the last have either branch
houses or correspondents in one or
more of the former places. To bo able
to realize to what extent this branch
plays in the daily business of an ex
change, it may be stated that more
than five hundred wires run into the
New York Exchange, most of which do
service to arbitrage brokers.

As the London market closes about the
opening hour for exchanges on this con
tinent, to be ablo to know the strength
of it and play successfully here is a
financial advantage of considerable ef
fect. This branch of the brokerage
business is used by some firms to coun

Dangers in Married Life.
The number of divorces and separa
tions occurring in different periods of
married life tells its own story plainly,
clearly. The blending of two lives,
the harmonizing of two different
temperaments, the adjustment of per
sonal incompatibilities in marriage ia
a thing of time. In true love-ma.r
riages the parties have, at least, a good
start, and it counts for much in favor
of happiness. But, even in marriage
of love, based on esteem, there is
more or less of disillusion, especially,
perhaps,' to the wife, and, when the
glamor is gone, danger to the family
begins. It is then that the sense of
duty is all in all to the wedded pair.
If they remember for a while that, in
marriage, lovo is a sworn duty, they
will, by and by, have less need to re
member it. The first five years of
marriage are dangerous; the second
lustrum is still more dangerous; and
the moral rents and strains which
lead to subsequent disaster are apt to
take place during those first ten peril
ous years. As time goes, on, the
danger lessens, and, perhaps, we may
believe that happiness, more real, if
less exuberant and . buoyant, is in
creased. The last years of married
life are, probably, the best. Even the
last years of marriage, as the French
statistics show, may end in turmoil,
but not, we think, unless there has
been'turmoil all along. The habit of
happiness and peace is not likely to

Cured by Cuticura
Our oldest cnild, uow six years of age.
when an infant six months old was attacked
with a virulent, malignant skin disease.
All ordinary remedies failing we called our
family physician, who attempted to cure it;
but it spread with almost incredible
rapidity, until the lower portion of the little
fellow's person, from the middle of his back
down to his knees, was one solid rash, ugly,
painful, blotched, and malicious. We had
no rest at night, no peace by day. Finally,
we were advised to try the Cuticura Hemk
Di ks. The effect . was simply marvellous.
In three or four weeks a complete cure was
wrought, leaving the little fellow's person
ts white and healthy ns though he had
never been attacked. In my opinion, your
valuable remedies saved his life, and to-day
he is a strong, healahy child, perfactly well,
