The Democratic party is in almost as
serious a perturbation. This fact is solely
owing to the multitudinuus candidates who
are putting their best foot forward. Some
have reSOrted to the columns of the Re
publican press to air their jealOusies and
animosities, but these little effusiOns gen.
orally react-they are usually serious boom
eTangs. The candidates who have not re-
sorted to this sort of warfare are Hugh
Butler, John Norton, NJ. Lyons and Harry
Burke. Mr.. Butler, whose physiognOmy
is produced above, has large following.
He, like the others, has been
UNANIMOUSLY traduced, but he has
not deigned to make answer
to absurd calumny. NJ. Lyons has served
his party for 10 these many years. He is
IN invariable delegate 10 the Democratic
conventions and has proved himself an
effective manipulation as a ward committee
man. John Norton is known to almost
every man, woman and child in the ward.
He says that he is a candidate, but like a
true Democrat will abide the re-
suit Of tO-night's caucus. If he
gets the nomination which he hopes for, all
right. If one of his competitors get it, he
will exercise his utmost endeavOrs and in
fluence to secure an election. Harry Burke
needs no introduction. His face was
viewed by the GLOBES readers yesterday
morning. Harry" as he is Familiarity
called by every one, is not only exceedingly
popular, but one of the talented young
Democrats Of the city. His clear and con-
vincing logic has been heard in many a
political gathering. He is not as actively
working for Che nomination, and it is in
timated that, after the informal ballot to-
night. he will withdraw and urge that his
friends will go over to the support of one of
the best and most worthy aspirants.
AIOnzO Phillips in the Fifth.
The political situation in the Fifth has
been mighty quiet thus far. The aspirants
mentioned have been the present incum-
bent, S. c. Cutter, John Dodge, James
Tamm and Mr.. Hlfrich. The latter
says he is not a candidate and several of
the others have done no perceptible work
to secure the nomination, Aid. Cutter is
an exception to this, however. He has
been making a strenuous effort for over a
month. He has his ropes so well laid that
there seems to be little doubt that he will
carry the Republican precinct primaries.
A new candidate comes up from the Demo
cratic ranks i'll the person of Alonzo
Phillips, the liveryman on Sixth avenue
south. He is one of the Oldest and best
known residents of the ward and has never
been other than Democrat. Indeed. his
political record is above even breath OF
suspicion. His influence has helped several
Democratic majors to an election, and now
his friends will endeavor to reward him
with a seat in the council. His name was
on the lips of every Democrat in the ward
yesterday. In the Harmonic hall caucus
tonight it will be either Phillips, Tanm OF
Dodge.

Lent came in the only difference is they
all meet at some theatre, and after the
performance there is a supper.

WASHING SHEEP.
An Antiquated Custom Which Should BE
Abandoned without Delay.

An AntIquated Custom Which Should Bo
Abandoned Without Delay.
With large part of the wool-growers
of the country the practice of washing
the sheep before shearing has gone out
of use; yet there are many who still
cling to the ancient way. Is there any
merit whatever in the practice? Alto
gether too little to compensate for tho
cold, disagrceable job that endangers
the health of the men and sheep. The
wool can not be so washed while upon
the sheep as to obviate the necessity of
further washing; and whenever, as n
rule, it takes two jobs to do what might
be done in one the cost of doing it is in
creased. The washing can also be done
cheaper after removing from the sheep
than before. Then again the simple
fact that the buyers will not pay enough
more for flcece-washed wool to pay the
cost of the work together with the
shrinkage in weight of the wool, is
enough to condemn il.
In more northern sections the shear
ing must be deferred too long before
the water gets warm enough to 60 into
and then some time must elapse before
shearing in order that the wool regain
its elasticity. 1t is seldom that suita-
BILE place can be found for sheep-wash-
ing and then to reach it many flocks
have to be driven good distance TO
and from ii over dusty roads, the dust
settling in the damp wool making it af-
ter washing almost as dirty as before.
If the washing is done in pond or
i little good ai is s done o to the % Wool. We We
know nothing in favor OF the practice
and much against it.-Coimas'S Rural

a Habit Which is Far More Dangerous
Than 'IIeart-Disease."
Since there IS ii special tendency in
most communities to take too much
medicine, and to take it recklessly, it
should not be the object toincrease that
tendency. While the use and value of
drugs are not to be denied, it is claimed
that no ignorant person should ever
dabble with them, remembering that
the more active of them are active be-
cause they are poisons, or at least modi-
fications of poisons, and if gwen injudi-
ciously, when not needed, or in too
large doses, the poison-element will
appear. And here it is proper to refer
to that absurd idea that disease is q
monster. to be slain by the administra-
ton of active poisons-killed like any
other monster, tiger to be subiugated.
On the contrary, disease is but the alb
scnce of case or health, negative
rather than positive condition, the Je-
moval of which depends mainly on CO.
opera''ng with nature, whose efforts
are alwavs in the right direction,
thougl always effoctual. All of
these, in certain sense, may be re-
garded rs curative, though failure
often results, either from the lack of
sufficient physical foundation from sur
rounding adverse circumstances, or
from an interference on the part of
those who would cure, but who, on ac-
count of ignorance or falae ideas, in
troduce discords and false efforts. 1t
may be that such, foolishly believing
that the more critical and dangerous
the case, even when much reduced in
vital force, the more powerful the dose
demanded, act on this principle. and
give the dose that might be safe, in
ordinary cases, to persons of the same
age and sex, exercising no discrmina-
ton, no judgment. Such should re-
member that those weak in body are
also weak in the stomach, rs certainly
unable to bear large doses as they are
to perform hard labor. l have seen
many an adult to whom would give
no more than strong boy, slightly
ailing, could bear at the age of four
years. And when such are dosed with
no regard to their weakness, the sud-
den death is attributed to "heart dis
ease" while the intelligent know that
but very small percentage of the sud-
den deaths are caused by organic dis
ease of the hoart.-Dr. Hanyord, iD
