titled to a seat majority vote will

Mr.. Clark may forestall action by
resigning and seeking a reelection.
Representative Catchings, of Miss,
is one of the democrats who thinks
that the ticket may be Bryan and
Dewey. Speaking Of that probability
he said: 81 feel sure that Dewey
would take the Vice Presidential nom,
ination, and think that is what he is
working for. He certainly must ap-
preciate the fact that he cannot get
the nomination for President from
Bryan, whose selection is absolutely
assured. At present no one is named
for second place who would command
as many votes as Dewey, and, in fact,
no one is suggested whose name is
universally accepted. Bryan and
Dewey can defeat Mr. Mckinley
without any question"
Representative Talbert, of S. c.,
has habit of saying pertinent things
which are sometimes irreverent. For
instance, when Representative Steele,
of Ind, who had boasted of being a
farmer, said, in answer to qudstion
by Representative Richardson, Of
Tenn, that he raised "corn and wheat,
cattle and hops" Mr.. Talbert threw
the House into laughter by adding:
"rhe gentleman will also raise hell in
Indiana"
Senator-elect Blackburn sizes up
the political outlook thusly: SIN my
Congressional experience OF IS years
| have never known Congress in the
control OF either party that made as
many political blupders. If we can't
wipe out the republicans in Novem-
Der on the blunders made thus far by
the Fifty-sxth Congress we ought to
60 out of business. They have made
up the issues oflmperallsm, militarism
and trusts exactly to our liking. In
deed, if they had deliberately started
in to make good job of it for us
they could not have done better.
Having these facts in mind feel GER
tain that the republican managers will
hasten the close of the session, and
welcome the day when they can breath
easy again so far as Congress is con-
cerned. For this season I do not be-
lieve any effort will be made to force
the ship subsidy bill through. The
republicans are not looking for more

WASHINGTON.
From our Regular Correspondent.

washington, April 10, 1900.
Senator Jones, chairman of the
Democratic National Committee, who
has Just returned from New York,
redlcules the story that the anti Bryan
democrats, who are behind Dewey's
candidacy, would get Dewey dele
CATION sent from New York to the
Kansas City convention. He says
that Dewey's candidacy will cut no
figure at all in connection with the
democratic nomination tor President;
that Col. Bryan will be nominated by
acclamation. And his opinion is
shared by practically all the demo
Gratis in both branches Of Congress. 1t
is said, although your correspondent
does not vouch for it, that Dewey's
hackers have lot OF money to use in
buying the support of country demo-
cratic papers, in order to try to make
it appear thar there is strong demo-
cratic sentiment IN favor OF his NOM
ination. There is one draw. back to
this scheme that will kill II. The
country democratic editors, although
mostly poor men, are not for sale. In
fact, the country editors of this country
have record for incorruptibllity that
any class Of me might well be proud
Of They are constantly imposed up
on, and give more for nothing than
any set of men on earth; but they very
rarely sell themselves.
Secretary Gage having shown by
the figures sent to the House, IN an
swer to resolution, that the war taxes
can be reduced at least $50, 900, 900
a year without embarrassing the gov
ernment. the democratic leaders in
tend to try to make the republicans
tell why they will not agree to make
the reduction at this session.
The democrats of the House made
a good fight against the Porto Rico
bill, but as they could not prevent
republicans swallowing their publicly
announced convictions they lacked
few votes and could not defeat it. The
abomination has been signed by Mr..
Mckinley and the responsibility of the
republican party for it is now com
plete.
The action of the Senate Commit
tee on Elections in deciding by un-
animous vote that Senator Clark, Of
Montana, was not entitled 20 the seat
he holds, is considered more of con-
demnation of Montana political meth
ods than of Mr.. Clark personally.
Senator Pettus spoke the thoughts of
many of his colleagues when he said:
| have more respect for Mr. Clark
than | have for those who have been
bounding him. | do not think the
use of 100000 or more IN electing
Mr.. Clark was warranted, but at the
same time have no doubt that Mr..

ner in which the money was used. y
Mr.. Clark says he intends to get vim
dlcated, but that is all he will say at
this time. There is little or no doubt
that the Senate will endorse the re-
port of the committee, if Mr.. Clark's
resignation does not make a vote un-
necessary. Had the report been to

Notes From the Pennsylvania Experiment
Station.
Gravity or Aquatic Cream separa,ors.

Gravity or Aquatic Cream Separators.
Information has been received at
the Experiment Station that in
many parts of the State where small
dairies are kept, agents are selling
the above named "separators" with
claim that they are equal i'll effic-
iency to centrifugal separators. The
claim made for these devises is that
by diluting the milk in the separ-
ator with from one-third to one
fourth of its bulk of water the Wis
costly is decreased and the fat glob-
ules consequently rise easily and
completely to the surface.
This use of dilution is not new,
it having been practiced at least
ten years ago, and however plaus-
ible the claims made for it may
appear, they are not confirmed by
actual experiment.
In some trials made at the Cor
nell Experiment Station with three
of these "separators, handled
according to instructions sent with
them, the following results were
obtained on mixed herd milk COM
pared with those obtained with a
Cooley creamer without dilution

The same investigator also found
that the average percentage of fat
found on forty different farms
using shallow pans was o.So pei
cent. and OH thirty farms using
deep setting $50 per cent.
| These results show that the
aquatic separators do not approach
the centrifugal separators il
efficiency and further that they are
more efficient than shallow plans OF
deep setting only in the case o
stripper" milk. The only con
clusion to be drawn is that a frauc
is being perpetrated upon the farmer
when he is induced to buy a "sep
arator" of this kiud with the ex
pectation that he is getting SOME
thing that will separate his cream
as closely as centrifugal separator
or any closer than the crock or deer
setting system. Furthermore, !.
should be borne in mind that by the
dilution Of the whole milk the skin
milk is very materially reduced il
feeding value, which is a matter o
no small consideration on mos
farms in the Commonwealth.
1t is to be hoped that Pennsyl
vania farmers will be slow in buy
ing anything that possesses so few
advantages as the Aquatic Separ
ator." H. HAYWARD.
