COMPULSORY voTiYc.

Compulsory voting has received IA
vorable report from a committee of the
Ohio legislature. Senator Hill has at
various times tried to get New York to
adopt compulsory ballot law. If the
Ohio legislature should adopt such
law its operations would be largely an
an experiment, for there is no compul-
sorry ballot IN this country. 1t some
times seems as if it would be good
thing if every state had such law,
as under such circumstances it would
be much harder for corrupt political
rings to get control of party and govern
mental machinery. This "stay at home'
element of voters-usually very intelli-
gent class of people, who have become
disguised at the rottenness of politics
would turn out under compulsion and
retire the demagogues and tricksters.
1t is evident that something is wrong
with our politics when, under our plan
of popular government, it bee )mes nee
essary Cor great state like Ohio TO con-
slider manner of forcing voters to dis
charge their duty to themselves and
their country.

What is the use in eating when food
does you no good--in fact, when it does
you more hNrm than good, for such is
the case if it is not digested.
q Ii you have a loathing for food there
is no use Of forcing 1t down, for it will
not be digested. You must restore tue
digestive organs to their natural
strength and cause the food to be digest
ed when ] appetite will come, and with
it relish for food.
Tie tired, langud feeling will give
place to vigor ana energy, then you will
put flesh on your bones and become
strong. The Shaker Digestive Cordial
as made by the Mount Lebanon Shakers
contains food already digested and is a
digester of food as we'll. Its action is

Doctors prescribe LaxCl because it
has all the virtues of Caster Oil and is

committee has ordered that county of

SUGAR RULED STRONG
II Attained the Highest Figure Yet Reached
and Brokers Bought 1900 Shares.
INCREASED INTEREST IN RAILWAY ISSUES
The hallway mud miscellaneous Share
Market was Strong throughout
There Was Also Some Investment
Buying of Railway Mortgages for
Both Home aud Foreign Account.

New York, April 15.-The railway and
miscellaneous share market was strong
throughout, although the trading was
DIN smaller scale than yesterday. The
transactions in stocks were $50, SIS shares,
OF which 29,G00 were Sugar, Il, 900 To-
bacco and $4,000 ST. Paul. Probably the
best feature of the market was the in
creased interest taken in the railway
issues bN commission and foreign houses.
The buying by London firms was con-
fined mainly to St. Paul and Louisville
and Nashville. while local commission
brokers were moderate buyers of the
Changers. Vanderblts and Consolidated
Gas. There was also some investment
buying OF railway mortgage for both
home and foreign account. The advance
In sterling exchange had no influence on
the market. as II is believed that gold
exports are not likely under existing con-
ditions unless European bankers should
elect to pay an extra commission. Sugar
sold up TO 1875, the highest yet reached,
and brokers with inside connections
bought 1000 shares. Tobacco sold at II

about enjoinng the payment of the scrip

the company had not been notified by
any sui; about this matter. General
Electric was rather weak and closed

will show. as already stated, a balance
