THE NoN-voTIN6 VOTER.

The Commoner: The Omaha World
Herald calls attention to the boast of an
Iowa citizen that lie has never voted
although now past fifty years of age.
He refuses to take part in politics be.
cause, he says, sit is not Clean" Surely
there cannot be very many vino have so
little intelligence as not to know that
the citizen has no right to enjoy the
blessings of free government unless he
is willing to endure the constant sacrifice
for which it calls. If the Iowa citizen
is more honest than his neighbors he is
in duty bound to give his country the
benefit Of his superior integrity and in
telligence. A man might possibly
Justify himself in refusing to vote be-
cause be is not good enough, but no one
can refuse to vote on the ground that
he is too good.
Sometimes men fail to vote because
their party is in the majority and they
think their vote is not needed; some.
times they fail TO vote because they are
in the minority and they think their
vote will do no good, but no excuse is
valid. Public sentiment is guaged by
the election and every vote has its in
fluence. The stay at. home vote is too
easily misconstrued. One Nebraska
democrat, for instance, refused to vote
because he wanted to encourage the re.
publicans to carry their policies to
extremes, believing that reaction
would be thus produced, and yet the
republican leaders will construe the
silence of this voter as an evidence that
he is satisfied with existing conditions
and with the tendencies OF the policies
now being enforced. Between those
who absolutely refuse to vote and those
who feel it their duty to vote are those
who are so Indifferent that they will
vote if carried to the polls, but will no
vote otherwise.
The party that has large campaign
fund and can furnish carriages has al
advantage over party without such {
fund. 1t may become necessary to pass
law providing for compulsory voting; il
fact, such law would not only give al
administration the encouragement of al
Endorsement or warn it by an advers
vote, but would lessen the fund no,
required to carry on campaign. Tn
nearer we can get to the free and VI
corrupted voice of,he people the bette,
and compulsory voting would be ste
in that direction.

The latest news in the Crofford case is
that he has the affidavits of S. E. Burnt
son, Alfred Burrell, Riley Hullinger and
James Bass, that they heard r. j. Har-
mon, who was foreman of the jury
express himself to the effect that he be-
lieved Croford guilty and that he ought
to be hung. On this ground Croford
asks for new trial and Judge Towner
has granted Prosecuting Attorney Olsen
20 days to investigate and secure, we
presume, counter affidavits. Mr.. Har-
mon emphaticalIy denies having made
any such statement as is attributed to
him by Bass, Burrell, Burnison and
Hullinger, and further states that he
wasn't IN town on the day he is said to
have made the remark. Evidently
there is a screw loose somewhere.

Many times I could not eat anything;
sometimes I drank a little hot milk at
other times the llghtest food distressed
me so that death would have been gladly
welcomed as a relief. I was weak and

strength.

recommended me to try Grape-Nuts, as

the benefit I received in an incredibly
short time was almost marvellous.
Words cannot express the joy and
thankfulness 1 felt when I found I was
relieved Of that dreadful distress from
indigestion that had been experiencing
after each meal
After continued use, health and
strength returned; I began to enjoy life
and go among my friends again so much
improved that remarks were made about
my good health. sleep well now, sit all
day with perfect ease and comfort, and
sew and work as I like. I wish I could

STRIKE NOTES.

buying of coal for American shipment, but prices
all round firmly held at advanced figures.
MISUNDERSTANDING to expectations, the
troops were we'll received, and there was no dis

at Harlegh to-day but they dispersed.

New Iork-Son'e@ Import tiers are inclineds to
blame J. P. Morgan and the Interna tional Mer-
camille Marine company for the present state
of the tonnage market. They say that the rates
are in part due to the announcement matde by
the shipping trust that it had bought 100, 900
tons of coal before sufficient tonnage to move
it had been chartered.
