BALLOT BOX REFORM THE AL'S
TH ALIAS SYSTEM A' SUC
CESS. The val ne of an y ay stem of reform is
bent estimated by the decree of success
attained from its practical workings.
Under the ol-l ballot system, fraud, cor
ruption and dishonesty in the manage
ment of elections have ,,'rown to such
dimensions as to become the rule rather
than the exception. Ho notorious have
they become, that men laugh and glory
over their crime, if crowned with success
in its accomplishment. For many years
nast have the honest voters inveighed !
against the crimin-d manipulations of i cance as to the real strength of the par
the ballot box stulfer. dishonest judges tv which gains or loses. So many local
and tally sheet forgers, but have failed
to obtain relief from their viilany.
Fortunately a system designed to cir
cumvent such evil manipulations of
elections, known as the Australian sys
tem, has been introduced to the notice
of the American people and by them re
ceived with general commendation and
adopted in evei al states with such mod
ifications as were necessary to adapt it
to American institutions.
The elections which have recently
been held in states which have adopted
the new sstem have given the electors
a fair opportunity to observe its practi
cal operation. The reports from all
points are highly favorable, and, show
that elections held niwler the new law
have ifiven general satisfaction to the
voters. The great number of votes cast
at the polling places proved that votes
were not lost through illiteracy of vot
ers. The most ignorant appears to have
cast bis vote satisfactorily to himself, as
no complaints have been heard from
that class of voters.
On the other hand in the recent elec
tions in other states, held under the old
Bvstem, the same old charges are reiter
ated. In New Jersey the frauds com
mitted in the recent elections have been
ao apparent from their boldness and au
dacity, that the indignation of the hon
est voters whs aropsed, and the legisla
ture which is in session was forced by
public clamor to investigate the charges
of ballot box frauds.
Upon the strength of the examination
made by the sennte committe, sixty
warrants were issued last Saturday for
the alleged participants in the crime,
and twelve arrests were made, of whom
eight were democrats and four republi
cans. A system underwhich it is found that
frauds Bre possible, and possibility has
assumed a form of certainty, should be
abandoned and be replaced by a system
adapted to present demands for purity
of the ballot box. The ballot is an
American citizen's highest privilege. It
is the power which protects him and ex
presses his will in all matters of govern
ment, and a robbery of -his ballot is, and
ought to be, a crime of the highest de
gree, llenoe every measure should be
speedily adopttd which will protect and
secure the purity of elections, that the
actual wishes of the people may be ob
tained and known, lie who would throw
impediments in the way of the accomp
lishment of ballot reform may safely be
olassed as with the enomies of hone&
Danois anu lair ana true returns.
The acts of Governor Hill in using
bis constitutional power, in vetoing the
ballot reform bills passed by the New
York legislature is in the interest of the
boodler, the ballot box stiiller and the
tallv sheet forger. Therefore, as the
New York World intimates, cannot be
commended by the voter who seeks a
fair vote and an honest count. Its ad
vance is onward, and tha principles of
the new system will grow iu favor and
oause its adoption in all the states. The
voters in Oregon should see that their
representatives they send to the next
legislature are right upon this question.
THE MISSIONARIES
CENSUS.
AND THE
Some of the religious organizations in
the East are considerably exercised over
the Chinese enumeration bill now be-
missionary societies, is strongly against
the bill. The reasons assigned are:
"That its adoption would be a violation
of the treaty rights, and all present were
apprehensive that it would endanger the
personal eatery ol American missionaries
resident in China, and greatly hamper
them in their worfc. These are given
by those who represent missions ia
China.
The Gazette is hot aware that it'is any
part of the duty to recognize religious
foreign missions, as missions, in any
part of the globe, in regulating the in
ternal welfare of its people or passing
laws in accordance with its requirements.
As citizeus of the United States, it is the
duty of the government toprotect them,
whether they are missionaries, mer
chants, or simply citizeus; and it will al
ways be found ready to perform that du
ty ; but it is no part of its duty to hunt
missionary grouuds for any mission pur
poses. The world is open and broad
and it is the duty of missionaries, so
they claim it to be, to go out and work
at their culling. They are an independ
ent body, acting for personal gratifica
tion, and not for or on account of the
government or its people. The amount
of ignorance, poverty and crime which
exists within the limits of our common
country ought to supply a field large
and broad enough for our missionaries,
to exhaust all their energies oombined-
No! The government cannot and will
not neglect ti e interests of its people
and the country for missions ea
tablisbed in other lands. The Chinese
immigraut must be restricted. If mis
sionaries oannot sustain their missions
with a restriction law, and without a
treaty supported by the national gov
ernment, they had better abandon them
and let the slow but unfailing law of
progression aooompliah in its own prop
er time what they have failed to do.
Friction with the civilization of the
whole world has accomplished more in
advancing the Mongolians in the past
forty years than ten centuries have ac
complished through missionaries.
THE SENATE PASSES THE
DALLES BOAT RAILWAY
BILL.
Every friend of Eastern Oregon will be
delighted to learn that the bill for The
Dalles boat railway has passed the sen
ate. The bill appropriates $2,500,000,
which ia th full estimated cost of the
work. Ttie Portland Oretjonian's Wash
ington correspondent, iu a telegram an
nouncing its passage, savs:
''Senators Mitchell and Dolph were in
their seats, and Senators Squire and Al
len were in the chamber, all ready under
the five-minute rule to explain the bill.
Nobody made any objections. The bill
was considered as in committee of the
whole, and no amendments made, al
though it was read eutire. Several sen
ators who were opposed to the appropri
ation gathered around the senators, but
did not raise their voices. The bill
went to the third reading and passage,
aud still no one had objected. After it
was deolarod passed by Vice-President
Mortou, Senator Edmunds went to the
clerk's desk, picked it up and read it.
The Oregon senators were ready to
spring on him if he made an objection,
but he came away and the bill was safe,
so far as the senate w as concerned.
It now goes to the house, and Mr.
Hermann will try to get the rivers
and harbors committee to report it with
the Soo aud Galveston bills as one om
uibus measure, with the hope that a
combination may carry it through."

tv, has been named as a candidate for
nomination for congress before the re-1

THE
CITY ELECTIONS DEMO
CRATS AHEAD.
The regular spring municipal elections
have been held in many of the eastern
cities this week, resulting nominally in
favor of the democrats in the greater
Dumber. Elections for municipal pur-
noses in cities have no reliable signili-
issues are involved, questions growing
out of the enforcement of state laws,
personal interests and preferences, and
more than all else is the scramble for
offices and official power, influence to a
great extent the action of voters, so that
strict party lines are, at times, almost
obliterated, there being no national is
sues which draw the lines far party ac
tion. THE STATE OF IDAHO.
The Gazette rejoices with the people
of Idaho, and joins in the general con
gratulation of the Pacific Coast, that
their beloved Btate will soon take her
rant with the grand sisterhood. The
acceptance of her constitution and the
passage of the law for admission, now
awaits the signature of the president,
which without doubt will be given; and
thus add another Btar to the galaxy
which adorns the national stripes with
beauty.
The statement lately made by. Igna
tius Donnelly that a profit of 28 cents a
bushel was made by the handlers on all
grain shipped to Liverpool from St.
Paul, has brought an otter lrom o. i"ius
bury and A. J. Sawyer to pay $20,000 to
any farmer or association who can ship
a cargo of wheat to Liverpool and realize
a profit of cents a bushel. This of
fers a fine chance for those writers who
prate continually of the gram buyers
and shippers robbing the farmer, to
prove their assertions to be facts.

FROM HARNEY.
As the subject of Joint-Senator repre
senting in the Legislative Assembly the
counties of Harney, Grant and Morrow.
is the next matter of political moment,
the Grant County News makes several
movements in that direction. It gener
ously proposes that Graut and Harney
divid" honors: Ii Harney will let Grant
have the Senator, Grant will give Harney
the county Representative, which looks
like "anything to beat Morrow" or Hon.
Henrv Blackman. the Democrat most
frequently mentioned in connection vith
Joint Senator, and to whom the Xeics
refers in the following question:
"Do the Demoirats of Grant and Har
ney counties desire to be represented in
trie State Senate by a person whose only
known qualification is 'Mayor of Hepp
ner?' And, again in communication
ovorsignatureof "Justice and Democrat,"
speaks of both Hon. Henry Blackman
the mayor referred to and Mr. Frank
Kellogg, an attorney of Heppner, saying
"Mr. Blackman is the most popular
man of the two, the stronger and has a
large following."

GEN. T'JliNEK'S OPINION.
Interviewed By the Fast Orepronian Reporter
About Heppner.
"There is some movement in politics
at Heppner. The main interest in the
democratic ranks is centered on the con
test of Mayor Blackman aud Mr. Kel
logg for the nomination of joint senator.
I talked with a muraber of leading dem
ocratic citizens, and the geuernl senti
munt appears to be favorable to Mr.
Blackman.
"As regards Heppner, the town is im
proving rapidly, although its growth is
stendy and sure, and there is no indica
tion of a boom. The only objection is
that Heppner has been guilty of cold
blooded and cruel murder, for Arlington
has fallen by its enterprising hand.
Next to Pendleton, Heppner is the best

JOINT SENATOR.
From the Eagle.
From the Grant County News I see
that Frank Kellogg, of Heppner, is
mentioned as the choice of Morrow
county for joint senator on the demo
cratic tiokct. I have nothing . against
Mr. Kellogg, but know that he is not the
most unpopular mon in Morrow county.
I would like for Grant to have the joint
senatorship, yet if the deniocatio party
must choose as their candidate, between
Henry Blackman Bnd Frank Kellogg, of
Morrow county, knowing the men
personally, let Blackman have it. I
I have only to refer your readers to the
leading democrats of Morrow county to
substantiate the fact that Blackman
deserves it, should the choice be left to
the senatorial material of Morrow
