Australian Voting system.
The Australian system of voting,
now the subject of discussion in
Ohio and other States, is by no
means new. 1t was adopted in
Australia thirty years ago and the
fact that it has remained in opera
ton there ever since is proof of its
desirability and efficacy. In 1873
it was adopted in Great Britain,
and two years later in Canada. In
1877 Belgium took it up, the Grand
Duchy of Luxembourg followed in
1879 and Norway in 1884, although
in the latter country there were
slight changes made in it. In ohio
and more than twenty other states
bills are pending in the Legislatures
to adopt the system, and in Massa'
chusetts it became Il law at the
last session of the Legislature.
Under this system the ballots
are prepared at public expense. On
them are printed the names of the
candidates of the various parties,
with blank spaces to be filled by
the voter if he does no wish to vote
for either of the regular ones. Nc
party can be represented on the
ballots unless it polled at least five
per cent of the votes at the last
election, but the blank spaces furn-
ish relief for new and small politi.
cal parties.
The polling places are provided
with desks divided by partitions
into booths. There must be one OF
these booths for each 70 voters in
the district, and each one must bt
provided with pencil. The voter
enters the rail enclosed rail-enclos
ed space where it is marked sen
transe"-goes to the table where
! the election officers sit and asks
for a ballot. The ballots must bt
made into pads or tablets so tina
one can be torn off at time. One
is torn off and two of the election
officers write their names in ink, or
the back. The voter takes it t.
one of the booths and there makes
a cross opposite the names of the
candidates he wishes to vote for, o.
writes other names as he chooses
If he spoils the ballot he canno
have another unless he returns tht
spoiled one, and he can have bu
three in succession. After com
pleting his ticket he folds it will
the names on the inside and thu
officers signatures outside-this Il
imperative-and hands it to th'
Judge of election, who verifies tn
signatures on the back and thel
deposits the ballot in the box il
the presence of the voter; the lat
ter then passes out at the poin
marked "eXit."
No one is allowed within the en-
closure except the officers, and tn
voter must go out as soon as hi
ballot is deposited. No "workers
are around the polls, for they ca
have no tickets to "peddle," AM
none are allowed to be taken fror
the place. If voter is unable t
mark his ticket two of the officer
may do it for him, certifying o
the back of the ticket that the
have done so, but they must nc
tell how he voted.
Only two persons are allowed t
act as challengers, but they can re
present all the candidates. Their
are many other regulations, beal
ing on certain conditions, tina
make the system appear cumbel

To Assist Nature

In restoring diseased or wasted tissue is
all that any medicine can do. In pull
monary affections, such as Colds, Bron-
chitis, and Consumption, the mucous
membrane first becomes inflamed, then
eccumulations form in the air-cells OF
the lungs, followed by tubercles, and.
finally, destruction of the tissue. 1t is
plain, therefore, that, until the hacking
cough is relieved, the bronchial tubes
can have no opportunity to heal.

that he has permanently absented him

''This talk about Texas fever here
amounts to nothing remarked Health
Commissioner Dudley. There is some
Texas fever here, it is true, but there is
less this summer than there has been for
years. We have some of it every sum-
mer here, and will have as long as
Texas cattle are shipped here, and
that will be as long as the
country lasts, l suppose. 1t is peculiar
disease. A steer may be shipped here
from Texas. He may be all right aud
not have the fever himself, yet he brings
it upttwith himty and the cows
which come III contact with him or
eat the same grass or drink the
same water he does catch the fever
Some butcher probably buys the steer to
kill and 5perhaps the animal gets out and
becomesnixed with dairy cows, or eats
or driRSss where they are in the habit of
dOinglf. and when they come along after
him HBy catch the fever, though the
stesssEs perfectly healthy himself Meat
80 such cattle is eaten every day and
Ts, Wholesome, yet mich COWS catch the
fever from these very steers whose steaks
you eat. peculiar and fortunate feat
ure of the disease is that one local COW
which catches the fever from
Texas steer cannot communicate it
to other local cattle 1t is only
contagious from the animal which;
brings the germs of the fever here With
him from Texas and all local cows who.
take IT must come in contact with him or
eat or drink where he has. If, thefs
fore, one COW catches the fever, other
COWS should not be allowed to Craze or
drink where she got it, as they will also
catch it She need not be quarantined,
however, from the remainder of the
stock, as there is no danger of their TAX
ing it from her. Another fortunate fea-
tuTe of the disease is that when a COW
takes it she soon dries up and ceases to
give milk; thus preventing the spreading
OF the disease, through the use
of her milk. We have plenty of
complaints, but when we run
them down find nothing in them Thus
we investigated dairy this morning
where two cows died of Texas fever we
were told We found only one COW had
died, and that was on July 4, and not of
Texas fever < A neighboring dairy with
200 cows, whose stock, it was claimed,
caught the disease from the other herd
lost one new COW they had purchased,
and 1t mad not died of Texas fever That
is the way all these reports turn out
when investigated, though l have no
doubt there are few cases i'll the city
but they are very few. - Post Dis

1t has not been many years since the
highest prices of leading farm. commodo-
ties, and especially for live stock, were
looked for only on the Atlantic seaboard
But in this there has been a radical
change, illustrated more completely in
the cattle trade.perhaps than i'll anything
else. The best>cattle prices in the couu-
try, all things considered. are now real
lied at Chicago, South Omaha and Kan
sas City. There are at least two causes
for this. One is that transportation is
so adjusted, in spite of interstate
eamperce regulations that distance
he51res but SIeuderly in the relative
5eost of marketing. The other is that
the shape i'll which cattle production has
taken large quantities of stock from
which buyers may select what they want
can be found only in contiguity to the
heavy producing sections of the West.
So it happens that the intermediate and
seaboard markets have completely lost
the prestige i'll prices that they once held
and under circumstances which render
