AMERICAN INDIFFERENCE.

There appears to be plenty of evil
dence that the average American does
not appreciate the privilege of citizen
ship or put the right value upon him
self as a factor in government
The indifference of citizens in all
parts of the country to vital public
matters is something alarming to the
thoughtful The average per cent of
voters who always absent themselves
from the polls is too large to be cred
liable to the men who compose the
rank and file of the great parties.
Attention is now being called to the
fact that less than 40 per cent. of the
voters attended the recent primary
elections in Indiana. 1t seems 10
make no difference what the method
is for registering the will of the peo-
pie they show no active interest in it.
How to make the American citizen
attend to his political duties is a
question unsolved, but not unsolvable.
A contemporary considering the means
of improving conditions, says:
mo law can compel citizens to at
tend to their political duties or enjoy
their political privileges. Perhaps
law, DISTINGUISHING any citizen, say
for two years that did not attend the
regular caucus of his party, unless out
of rea ch of the same or forced by ill
ness to remain away, might go far
toward forcing men to exercise their
duty of suffrage Or, how would it
do if a man neglected to vote, to dis
franchise him and give his wife or
adult sister. if he had the same. the
franchise in his stead? Some scheme
to emasculste the male voters who
fails to do his duty might prove eff
