POPULAR ELECTIONS. THE STEADY GROWTH OF INTEREST IN STATE ELECTIONS. LET IN ON THE GROUND FLOOR. 8h« her Leuun* That May Be Drawn Prom the New York State ami National Kleetloun—The Percentage of Voters to the Population Greater In the Country. A comparison of the election returns at the end of the last century, about the time of the adoption of the constitution of the United States, with the returns for the last presidential election, shows how widely the suffrage has extended in the United States. In Massachusetts, between 1778 and 1794, the projortion of votes cast to the population varied from 2 to 5 per cent. In several counties of the state of New York there were cast at the election of 1892 almost one-third as many votes as there were inhabitants.

It was then worth but 2 or 3 cents on the dollar. She was on her return trip to her home in Hartford. The conver sation of the two directors preyed on her mind. She revolved it over and over again until her homo was reached, about which time a fd.OOO note due her was re deemed. She sent for her attorney, de tailed to him the conversation she had heard and said she was almost resolved to invest the f5,000 in Missouri Pacific. The attorney, mistaking her announced resolution for irony, laughed, but the woman of wealth persisted. “It is but |5,000,” she said, “and if I lose I shall have just as much to eat as I have always hiul and just as much to wear. If the plans betrayed by these two directors work out, I shall make a good deal of money buying Missouri Pa- only one vote cast to every 10 inhabit ants, a ratio smaller than that cast In any county in this state for a great many years. There was a property qualifica tion for electors in this contest, and it was frequently the case that the voting, instead of bciug by secret ballot, was viva voce. There were So few electors that they would all come together on election day, and their names would be called, ev“ry man naming his choice. With all the talk about the large vote of the city of New York and the power of its majorities to settle the result in the state, it Is somewhat contradictory that the election figures should show that New York has the smallest ratio of voters to inhabitants—less than half as large as the ratio in many of the rural counties. Brooklyn comes next and Buffalo third. Throughout the state it is central that the Democratic counties cast fewer votes to the number of their inhabitants than the Republican counties. In New York the number of inhabitants to eacfl voter is 6.89, in Kings 5.95 and in Erie 5.06, while in Cortlandt and Otsego the ratio is 8.11 to 1; 3.16 in Yates, 3.85 in Gene see, 8.38 in Delaware, 3.85 In Allegany, 8.26 in Madison, 8.37 in Ontario, 8.22 in St. Lawrence. This shows a ratio twice as large in New York and almost twice as large in Brooklyn and Buffalo as in the rural counties. There are two main reasons to account for this. One is the difference In the election laws in the cities and iu the counties, and the other is the difference in the character of the population. It cannot be a difference in politics, for Schoharie, one of the few rural Demo cratic counties, shows a ratio of 8.18, ami Greene, another Democratic county, has a ratio of 8.86. The percentage of voters is lower in the cities than in the rural districts. ’ The two counties of Schenec tady and Schoharie are Democratic and contiguous. Schoharie is a purely agri cultural county, while a great part of the population of Schenectady county is In Schenectady, which is a flourishing little city. Schenectady lias 6,000 more population than Schoharie, but it casts several hundred fewer votes, and there is a difference of a third in their ratios. One reason for the high ratios in New York, Brooklyn and Buffalo is the large number of aliens iu those cities. The aliens count in the population, but they do not count in the numlier of voters. According to the state census New York's population is one-fourth alien, and the ratio in Buffalo is almost as high. Another thiug is the difference in elec tion laws. In the cities a man has to go to the polling place twice to vote—one# to register and once to cast his ballot. In the conntry he has to go only once and that time to vote. His name may be put on the registration list by his friends. A comparison of these returns with the election returns at the time of the Revo lutionary war and the adoption of the constitution shows that political inter est is increasing every year, and that the percentage of those who participate in elections is also increasing. In Massa- chnoetts toward the close of the last cen tury, when discussions respecting the federal constitution were going on and when there had been an actual rebellion in one part of the state, not over 0 pei cent of the population voted, although the census of those days shows that about three times that perceutage of men were entitled to vote. In New York state at the last election the census and registra tions lists were almost identical In many districts, and there were some districts where there were more votes cast than the census showed of residents in the dis trict in the spring when the census was taken. It may be that to the rich men and men engrossed in the management of large businfks affairs politics and politi cal matters are not relatively so iuipor taut aa they were when the United States began, but a comparison of the election returns shows that aside from the widen ing of the franchise the proportion of those who vote is greater in this state than ev er before.—New York Sun. restricted the advice of their physicians that wine or stimulants of some kind are necessary for them to take. The advice in itself is justifiable, but the lack of re striction is culpable.

At the first blush this in cident is set down as proof of luck. It was simply an unexpected exhibi tion of what in Wall street vernacular Is termed “nerve” on the part of a quick eared and quicker witted woman. Nof one person in 10,000 would have given any heed to the conversation referred to, and not one of a thousand who might have heard and heeded and who hap pened to have the money, as the widow had it, would have dared invest it.
