Some State Pointers About Dele
cations and the Way the Wind
Is Blowing.
Hon. FL. j. Peck, Of ShakOpee, said
this week that there was no doubt but
that McGill would have the Scott county
delegation for him. From Carver county
there comes a report that the sentiment
for MeGill is strong there. Both of
these counties are strong German cOun-
ties, and i'm Carver, at least, it was sup
posed that Scheffer would have every
thing his own way. Mr.. Peck said also
that if Scheffer carried the Ramsey
county delegation he did not believe
that he could be beaten for the nOmina-
ton. Advices from Washington county
state that outside of the Germans
McGill has the county solid and
that even if Sabin came home
and interfered, he could not carry it
against him. 1t is settled that the Nor
man county delegation will be McGill.
To all apparent purposes Blue Earth
has determined to support Merriam.
This is surprising since it Is the baili-
wick of j. A. James and Eli Warner,
and defeat of McGill means the rub
bing of mud into them, Olmsted county
is now marked as solid for McGill, while
in Stearns county, Collins, Searie ct al.
are receiving the credit of. having laid
the McGilI pins safely. Since it is said
that Lind will not interfere in the home
canvasses and convention, Brown county
goes into the Scheffer column. But Col.
Bobleter is to be heard from. G0Odhue
county is very uncertain. McGilPs re-
form school rumpus hurt him there, and
the prophesiers say that Merriam will
have the delegation.
Said warm, personal friend of
Senator A. j. Whiteman, of Duluth:
Senator Whiteman's desire. am very
sure, is not to be the nominee for con-
gress on the Democratic ticket in the
Fifth district. He realizes that the
fight will be an uphill one and, with
any kind of decent generalship On the
part of the Republicans, fruitless. OF
course, if the party calls him he's
there, and won't finch; but am well
assured that nomination for the lieu
tenant governorship by the Democratic
state convention, would be very much
more in the line of his personal inelina-
tiOns. AS such nominee he would have
very much more than fighting chance,
for even the Republicans cOncede that
the odds are against them this year.
Whiteman would like to be lieutenant

ARLINGTON, Dak., April 2o.-Be-

originated in the depot of the Chicago q
Northwestern railway and has con-

elevator and contents. Little or moth
ing was saved from the depot. The fire
is now under control. Estimated loss to
Vandusen. $4,000; insurance unknown:
The loss to the railroad company cannot
be estimated. By hard exertion You
mans Bros. Il Hodgins' lumber shed was
saved, thereby saving the Empire Lum,
ber company's building and stock ana
several dwellings,. The loss to You
mans Bros. q Hodgins was slight.
Enough cannot be said in praise of citi-
zens generally in so nobly fighting the
fire at the lumber shed. The cause or
the fire is unknown, but as there was
very little fire in the stove spontaneous
combustion was the probable cause.
Wires are all down.

A QUESTION OF HEALTH

WHAT BAKING POWDER SHALL VIZ USE
This plain question comes home to every
hou-ekeeper We all desire pure and
wholesome food, and this cannot be- had
with the use Of impure or poisonous bak.
ing powder. There can be no longer a
question that all the cheaper lower grades
of baking powders contain either alum,
lime or phosphate acid. As loath as we
may be to admit so much against what
may have been some Of our household
gods, there can be no gainsaying the unan.
imous testimony Of the official chemists.
Indeed, analysts seem 10 find no baking
powder entirely free from some one of
these ohjcctionabl" ingredients except the
Royal, and that they report as chemically
pure. We find some of the baking pow
dcrs ADVERTISED as pure, to contain, under
the tests of Professors Chandler, Habir-
shaw and others nearly twelve per cent.
of lime. while Others are made from alum
with 10 cream Of tartar This, we pre-
sumo, accounts for their lack of leavcning
power as sometimes complained of 10y the
cook, and for the bi.tcr taste found in the
biscuits so frequently complained of by
ourselves.
But aside from the inicriority Of the
work done 10y these powders, the physi-
clans assure rs that lime and alum taken
into the system i'm such quantities as this
are injurious. Their physiological effects
are Indigestion, dyspepsia, or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why do
these cheap baking powder makers use
these things Alum is three cents a
pound, lime still cheaper, while cream or
tartar costs thirty-fyc or forty. The rea-
sons for the chemical purity of the Royal
Baking Powder were recently given in the
New York Times in an interesting descrip-
ton Of new method for refining argols.
or crude cream Of tartar. 1t seems that it
IS only under this process that cream of
tartar can be freed from the lime natural
to it and rendered chemically pure; that
the patents and plant for this cost the
Royal Baking Powder Company about
half a million dollars, and that they main
tain exclusive coutrol Of the rights.
Professor McMurtie, late chief chemist
Of the Department Of Agriculture, at
Washington, d. c., made an examination
Of this process. and reported upon the re-
suits attained in the refined cream Of tar
tar The following extract from his re-
port would seem to answer the question
repeated at the head Of this article, and
which is 80 frequently propounded by the
hOusekcepcr:
81 have examined the cream Of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany in the manufacture Of their baking
powder, and find it to be perfectly pure
and free from lime in any iorm The
chemical tests to which haye submitted

fectly healthful and free from every dele
