HARRITY'S REPORT,
Secretary Harrity has submitted his
annual report to Governor Pattison.
It shows that during the past
der the act of April 20, 1874, and sev-
enty-nine locomotive and 127 street |
railway companies were ip corporated,
besides a great deal of miscellaneous |
business. The fees for the last twenty-
two months amount to $71,677,560,
received on the granting of charters,
The expense of the department for the
same period was $61,104, From this it
appears that the fees more than ex-
ment by the sum of $10,435,88. In
ed from commissioners, certified cop-
ies and miscellaneous sources the sum
of $12,015,12, which would make the
excess of such receipts over the ex-
penditures amount to the sum of $22,-
450. The total commissions issued
were 6,342,
Secretary Harrity refers to the de-
fects in the new ballot law and makes
He thinks that
tions made nomination papers
which do not have attached thereto
the number of signers as required for
any state or district nominations
should not be certified to county com-
missioners and sheriffs as directed in
section 10 of the act. The reason for
this addition is that no authority is
given in any part of the act toany one
to determine what the required per
centum of the vote at the previous
election in the district for which a
nomination paper purports to come.
that section 4 should
be so changed to out
what political appellation may or may
not be used by parties making nomi-
nations by nomination papers. He
thinks that the time for filing objec-
tions to nomination papers and certi-
ficates should Le reduced at least one-
half.
Reghrding the form of ballot,
gays: ‘In justice to the several polit-
ical parties compelled to make nomi-
nations by nomination papers this sec-
tion should be so amended as to allow
their nominations to arranged on
the ballot in the same manner as nom-
* inations made by certificate of nomi-
nations.” Further he suggests that
the manner of marking the ballot by
the voter could be simplified by pro-
viding that one cross mark opposite
the party name or appellation at the
head of the list of candidates shall be
considered as a vote for all the candi-
uates of that party.

A DISGRACE TO HIS PARTY.
The Republican party and all
prominent organs have revolted at the
seating of ex-State Chairman Andrews

monwealth.
Andrews is a disgrace to his party
and braggart such as he, who is in di-
rect keeging with the machine politi-
cians of the state would seat himself
in the legislature against the direct
will of the people whom he is suppos-
ed to represent.
Andrews is a disgrace even to his
party.
