BAKING POWDER,
Why DR.. Prices Baking Powder is
Superior to all Others

No great efforts made by other manufacturers
to procure and pure materials
IT is true that other company has the facilities
but its greed and cupdty induced in evil hour
ammonia in order to swell its profits Hence the Price
Baking Powder Company stands alone in its fight for pure
baking powder.
No other article of human food receives greater care
IN its production, has attained higher perfection Dr.
Prices Cream is surely perfect baking powder Free from
every faint of impurity. No other article used in the
kitchen has so many steadfast friends among the house
wives Of America.

An Odd superstition.

Two girls sat drinking coffee in ladies' res.
taurant, says the Detroit Free Press Ono OF
them had just put the cream in her coffee, and
was about to stir it with spoon. when the
other suddenly orisd out:
Don't touch 10. Kate! Don't disturb 1t for
the world Try and take it up without break
Ing it."
what is it," asked the other, starting back
in alarm.
"Why, don't you see? There's money in it..
Look st that piece OF silver floating on your
coffeem
The other looked and saw a round white spot
about the size Of quarter floating Oh her
cofres.
slip your spoon under it and take it out
without breaking it, and you will get money
that you don't expect. But if you disturb it in
taking it out the charm will be broken o,
poor Katei You won't get any money. It's all
gone"
The two heads nodded in sympathy as the
ring -around-the-rosy In the cup broke into airy
nothingness and disappeared.

An Important Question.

The executive committee Of the Demo
cratic party of this county. having decided
that delegates to the state convention should
be chosen at a primary, TO be held under
the general law Of the state controlling
primaries, and in accordance with such
rules as the executive committee may adopt.
the question whether the election
should be held by wards, dis
tricts, or the whole city becomes
a most important one. The adoption of the
primary method gives satisfaction because
it is believed that by means Of it a fairer
expression OF the will Of democrats can be
obtained than by mass meeting method but
unless the greatest care and judgment are
exercised in framing the rules to govern the
primary there will be as much dissatsfac-
tion with the primary method as there has
been with the mass meeting method.
What is demanded is an absolutely fair
expression of the will of the Democratic
party. That there will be two sets of candi-
dates for delegates to the state convention
| there is no doubt and it is quite certain
| that there will be a lively contest over the
election of delegates. II the supporters of
one set Of delegates do not attempt to gain
an advantage over the supporters of the
be surprising And If such an
attempt should be successful there
would be i'll feeling in the party, and,
in all probability, demand for a return to
the mass meeting method. 1t is apparent,
therefore, how necessary IL Is that the rules
| governing the primary shall be so strong
and comprehensive that it will not be pos
| sible to commit frauds of any kind.
| Last week the Democratic party of
| Duval county, Florida, held mass meeting
to select delegates to the state convention at
Tampa. It is charged that gross frauds
were perpetrated. They were SO gross, the
Times Union says, that democrats through
out the whole state are condemning them in
the strongest terms.
There cannot be any such thing as party
harmony il frauds at primaries are permit
ted, and If there should be any suspicion of
unfairness in the primary which 10 to be
held in this county it would be an extremely
/ difficult matter to get the party to act with
vigor and earnestness in the approaching
campaign. Too much Importance, there
fore, cannot be attached to the work which
the executive committee has to do in franz
ing rules for the government of the
| primary.
The plan suggested In the MORNING
NEWS few days ago has advantages
which are not likely to be possessed by any
other that may be proposed. This is that
delegates to county convention be selected
by each OF the forty-three words of the
city, aud the county outside of the city,
and that this convention select
delegates to the state convention
1t would not be difficult
matter for the executive committee to fix
the number Of delegates to which each ward
would be entitled. and it is pretty certain
that the result reached would give very
general satisfaction. The plan is one that
could be carried out without much ex-
pense.

The Lisbon police are little in doubt as
to whether they have under arrest crank
of the kind that recently assaulted Russell
Sage in New York or an anarchistio thief.
A well-dressed stranger recently called at
the house of NJ. Carvalho, ex-minister of
finance. at Lisbon, and having gained access
to his library, held pistol to his head and
demanded 500 milreis "for the cause" The
ex-minister, believing himself to be in the
power Of a mailman. enptied his purse of
$50 milreis, and the man promised to call
later for the remainder. When he had gone

The campaign in South Carolina has
opened in an interesting manner Egh-
teen months ago Capt. Tillman assumed
the aggressive in the fight; now it
is the other wayne is compelled
to defend himself against the sharp
attacks of the straightout democrats,
who find plenty Of flaws in his administra-
ton to criticise. In tbs last campaign Capt.
Tillman had the full strength of the alliance
behind him, which he will not have this
year on account Of his expressed contempt
for the last general assembly, the members
of which were elected along with him and
upon the same platform, and his opposition
to the chief features of the Ocala platform.
The first joint mass meeting of the cam
paign was held Saturday at Greenvllle, at
which Farmer Ben" evidently realized for
the first time that he was going to have an
uphill fight, as, during the course of his
speech, he reminded the audience that he
had done very well on his farm before he
was elected governor, and said he could do
it again if the people did not want him
longer. At the same time he is doing all in
his power TO win the workingmen over TO
his side. For this purpose he recently APP

vate. Mr.. Blount has served his state with
conspicuous ability as a member of con-

was to the Forty-thIrd congress, and his re-,

The Citrus County Tragedy

The citizens of Citrus county, Florida, are
greatly mistaken If they think by Iynchiug
the murderers of Stevenson and Payne they
did that which will do most toward check
ing the crime Of murder In their locality
There is no doubt that the
murderers deserved death, but would
it not have been far better to
have permitted the law TO take its course?
Lynch law may be exousable in a new COM
! muuity where the courts are not organized,
but where there is all the machinery of the
law and plenty of responsible and law
| abiding citizens to act as jurors it is always
a mistake for citizens to take the law into
their own hands. By doing so they virtually
say they have no confidence in their judges
and juries, and by thus destroying conf
dence in the courts they give encourage
mont to those who are disposed to commit
crimes.
The killing of Stevenson and the killing
OF Payne were murders of such a terrible
| character as to arouse the greatest indigna-
ton, but would not the sense of Justice of
| the people Of Citrus county have bsen Just
az we'll satisfied by the punishment of the
murdsrers in accordance with the law as it
is by the unlawful method adopted to make
them pay the penalty of their crimesl
IL Is worthy of notice that q lynohing in
any locality is apt to be followed by other
lynchings in that locality. showing that
mob law In well regulated communities
does not tend 90 cheok murders. The rea-
son. as already stated is that whom conf
dence in the courts is destroyed the fear of
punishment is, TO great extent, removed.
Prompt punishment by lawful means is
the surest way TO check murder. The fear
of the gallows is much more restraining
than the fear of mob violence

NAVAL NE WS.

The U. s training ship James
town, now at New London, Conn,
has been ordered to Norfolk, Va,
where she will be put out of com
mission. 1t is said that this vessel
cannot possibly be put in good re-
pair under the 10 per cent. limita-
ton established by the last Con-
gress, and therefore will have to be
dropped from the list Of available
ships.
The U. S. training ship Constel-
lation, now on her way from New
London to Annapolis, has been or
dered to proceed direct from the
last named port to Norfolk, for the
the purpose of fitting out. for a
cruise to Europe in the interests of
the Worlds Columbian Exposition.
Her special commission is to visit
Havre and Genoa to receive works
of art to be sent to Chicago by
French and Italian exhibitors.

American Politics.

From our San Francisco Correspondent
Cleveland is just now engaged
in denying the charges of Southern
Republicans, that while in office
he permitted Land Commissioner
Sparks to turn out 10000 families
In the northwestern States and
render them homeless. The ex-
President feels very sore that such
charges should be be made against
him.
A New York dispatch which is
worrying the Democrats greatly
says: Has Senator Hill thrown
down the gauntlet in New York
State to the Democratic National
Committee? This is a live ques-
ton among politicians at the CAPT
tai tonight, and the presence of
Senator Hill on the ground makes
it all the more significant. The
question is raised by the annual
report of Labor Commissioner Park,
which, strangely enough, deals d.
rect with the tariff question and
1auds the Mckinley bill and its
effects In this State in a way that
will make good campaign material
for the Republicans. The very fact
that this particular subject is thus
discussed at such critical time is,
to the minds of the Cleveland
Democrats, exceedingly suspicious.
They denounce the document as
treason to the party and a treacher-
Gus effort to knock the tariff reform
plank OF the platform from under
Mr.. Cleveland's feet.
It is charged by the democracy
that Secretary of the Navy Tracy
has permitted Carnegie, the steel
king, to substitute weak armor and
other material for the construction
of the cruisers. Tracy has not yet
spoken.
The local democracy and that Of
the State have opened the cam
paign with a grand hurrah and
much enthusiasm. It has been de-
clded that Hon. NJ. NJ. Estee and
Stephen NJ. White shall jointly
discuss the tariff issues throughout
the State.
James G. Blaine, it is said, will
stump Maine for Harrison, and
will buy winter home in Pasa-
dena, this State.
