DELEGATE CONTESTS

Progress of the Latest Mine Strike

ner Steps Out.

Springfield. Ills April 24.-When the
Republican fight in Illinois was young
the contesting delegation problem
threatened 10 become Il formidable one,
but recently it has narrowed down so
that only Il few counties are involved
and the most important of these is
Sangamon. The first contest was in
Edwards county, where the Tanner
men objected To an apportionment of
delegates which had the effect of de
feating them. They refused 10 submit
10 the apportionment and held con-
Nention of their own. but as the other
people had control of the organization
il will he difficult matter for them to
get such credentials as will make out
4 ease for ;hem,and they may not ap-
pear at Peoria at all.
Rule Likely To BE Adopted.
The Gallatin and Wabash county
contests have been settled by the call
ing of new conventions. and the only
other contests are in Edgar and Jack
son counties. The latter has been made
immaterial by the failure OF the Cul-
lom people to get the senatorial con-
vpntion and il may not be brought To
Peoria. The state committee is TO hold
Il meeting previous TO the meeting of
the convention. and it Will then adopt
some rule by which the preliminary
contests can be disposed of. This rule
probably will follow the precedentS eS-
1abliShed by the national convention
and will provide that the delegates
holding what appear To he the regular
credentials be recognized as the sitting
delegates until the convention passes
on their cases.

FARMERS MAY SUE.
Committee Appointed to Consult Law
yers-A Strong Feeling That the
Farmers Under the Phyllis
Are Unjustly Treated.

Last Saturday between % and 30 far
mers met in the Armory building for
the purpose Of considering the matter
Of taking steps to secure recompense
for damages sustained through failure
of the owner of the Phyllis canal to
furnish water during the irrigation
season of 1899. It will be remembered
that last season several breaks occur
red in the ditch, and, in consequence,
no water was conveyed to Il any of
those who had contracted for it, for
considerable periods of time, resulting
10 almost entire loss Of crops to some
and great damage to others, it is
claimed. This season the Phyllis man.
agement has been unwilling to make
any allowance, even in water rate, in
consequence of its failure to fulfill its
contract, except, as alleged, in certain
favored cases. In fact it is r0undly
asserted By farmers that there haye
been Determinations for and against
certain individuals. This, however, is
in tha nature of aggraviting cir
cumstances rather than material
fact. The farmers, many Of them, feel
that they have been damaged severely
through the neglect and mismanage-
ment of the Phyllis people, and they
contemplate seeking redress in the
courts. At their meetidg las Saturday
they agreed to combine interests and
prosecute the matter to the end. A
committee of 5, consisting of Dickman,
Milliken, Holcomb, Davis and Ballard,
were appointed to take preliminary
steps looking to the employment of
| counsel II. Ii. Davis was made chair
man of the committee and delegated to
Iconfer informally with John 7. Morri-
son Esq. and II. A. Griffith Esq. The
committee will submit areport to a
general meeting called for today. The
farmers appear to be in earnest about
this matter and it is probable that liti'
CATION will result. Mr.. ]. L. Springer
presided at the meeting and Prof.

For an Editor to Recommend Patent Medicines?
1t may be question whether the ed

publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which food the
markets, yet as a preventive of suffer
ing we feel it a duty to say good word
for Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known
and used this medicine in our family
for twenty wears and have always found
it reliable. In many cases dose of
this remedy would save hours Of suffer.
ing while physician is awaited. We
do not believe in depending implicitly
on any medicine for a cure, but we do
believethat if bottle Of Chamberlain's
Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on. hand
and administered at the inception CO an

and in very many cases the presence of
a physician would not be revuired. At
least this has been our experience the
