A UNIQUE PLAN
Want Candidates for State Offices
Named by Primary.

Political Notes.
AN INTERESTING QUESTION,

Hon. L. C. Folkes, member of the
House Of Delegates from this city, has
proposed a most Interesting plan for the
nomination of Democratic candidates for
the State offices this fall,which, ii adopted,
would not only apparently result in fun
turnout of the Democratic voters at the
election to be held in May next, TO choose
delegates to the Constitutional Conven-
zion, but would, in all probability, great
ly simplify the fight for Governor, anu
1emove much of the bitterness from the
struggle, which is now so rapidly de-
veloplng.
Mr.. Folltes' plan is for the State Dem
ocratio Committee TO order a primary
election ito be held on the same day the
delegates are chosen to the Constitutions
al convention at which candidates shall
be nominated for Governor, Lieutenant
Governor and Attorney General, and then
let the State Democratic Convention
meet. ratify the work of the primary,
make a platform and elect a State chair

MosT of the bad effects ascrib-
ed to sugar are due, according to
Mary Hinman Abel, who has made
study of the question for the
agricultural department, to it's use
in larger quantities than the three
or four ounces day which seem
to be digested by healthy adults
without difficulty, provided it is
not eaten in indigestible forms.
There is no proof that sugar is
harmful to the teeth, although
sweet food when allowed to cling
to the teeth after eating rapidly
ferments and acids are formed
which may attack the teeth This
is equally true of starchy foods.
1t is said, however, that the natives
of the West Indies, who consume
enormous amounts of sugar, have
the finest teeth in the world. 1t
has never been proven, as has
been claimed, that sugar is re-
sponsibl for gout. Sugar seems
ill-adapted to the sick, except
when used in small quantities A
man doing hard work III the open
air can easily assimilate large
quantity of sugar, while the same
amount would cause indigestion if
taken by the same person when
living indoors with little or no

THE United States is about to
send l,0OO school teachers of both
sexes to Manila, and the officers
who are arranging for their pas
sage are getting gray-haired in
consequence. Army transports
are not fitted up like passenger
steamers and as each woman wants
an outside cabin on the promenade
deck the plight of these who have
to, assisn the few staterooms may
be imagined. The worst of it is
that probably half of the women
teachers will get married within a
year after reaching Manila and

Building a New Road.

"By January of next year." said
Burlington official, there will
will not be left vestige of the old
track beween Chicago and Omaha,
except few stretches of five or six
miles each The entire line for
30 miles west of Chicago, has
been rebuilt except the stretch of
five miles of track near Ottumwa.
and the contract for this was
awarded few days ago 1t is es-
timated that the average cost per
mile of the new track will be in
the neighborhood of 100000
Several steam shovels and about
$50 men will be given employ
for more than year. In many
places the original right of way
has been abandoned, and the rails
have been laid mile, and in some
cases, mile and half away from
their former position. 1t is likely
that saving of four or five miles
in the distance between Chicago
and the Missouri river will be
effected by the new track. The
principal improvement for the
company, however, will be the
elimination of curves and the re-
ductlon of grades. The work now
being done near Murray is of
enormous extent The cost will
run into the millions of dollars.
The present line will be abandoned
for one which shoots straight over
the valleys and through the hills,
making reduction of about three
quarters OF mile in the distance
and giving an almost gradeless

THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
oVcrbuying Brings About "A One Cent
Break in Wheat.

CHICAGO, May 23.-wheat was fairly
active, the feature being the buying by
local traders on an endeavor to force a
supposed short interest to cover. In ad-
vancing the market they overbOught
themselves, and eventually in an effort
to get rid of their holdings they broke
prices a cent. There was fair commits
sion house trade equally divided. There
were reports of damage in Ohio. Indiana
Illinois, and Missouri. Liverpool was un-
changed to sd lower. Paris and Ant
werp unchanged. Berlin 1Ac higher. Cash
sales were 70,000 bushels. The seaboard
reports siXty-six loads
Corn was weak, especially for May
which declined sharply to 43 cents on
at a discount of &c under July July,
naturally sympathizing with the above
interest, was a seller, though at times it
was a moderate buyer There were no
cash sales; thirty-f0ur loads at the sea-
board.
Considering the heavy sales of oats by
two local operators. estimated at over
200 600 bushels, the market shows
strength, especially the July. The bear
element was more disposed to attack the
September, and sold freely, widening the
discount The public continues a good
buyer There is no Improvement in the
crop news
Provisions were firmer early on the adj
vance in hog market. but lost the i'm
provement, and suffered a decline, mainly
in sympathy with the grain weakness.
The closing was quiet at inside prices. A
large local packer sold lard, and bought
ribs. There was a fair general trade.
Some selling of lard by local longs.

dllnbullt'S tItbJ Ht has lpuIli
4 N the cause and the cure for
badness. Shallow breath
ing is the cause and deep breathing is
the cure. lie has been experimenting
on guinea pigs and hens which became
bald or not as the learned doctor elect
Ell. I. is the impure air remaining in
the lungs which does all the mischief.
This is certainly a surprise. Almost
all the evils that have befallen woman
since the apple incident have been at
tributed more or less directly to the
vice of tiGht-laCing which has prevent
ed deep breathing and brought on oth-
or disorders. But one of the ills of life
from which she is comparatively free is
badness. The bald-headed woman is
almost an unknown quantity. In fact,
it may confidently be said that she is
an unknown quantity for you never
catch her bald headed; that is, she is
not apt to advertise her alTliction as
does man. Hence this discovery of the
| learned London doctor comes in the
| way of a revelation. If anybody
should be bald headed, according to his
! theory, 1t should be woman, because
| she wears corsets and can't breathe to
any extent; but, contrary creature that
! she is, here she goes about, luXuriating
in voluminous and extensive pOmpa-
| Gour, and ringletS, wavelets, crinklets
| and things ON the top of her head
which it becomes not the pen of man
| TO attempt to describe. And her hus-
| band or her father who never Wore
u close fitting garment or was able
| to define his waist line during the
whole of a well spent life, and who
is popularity supposed to breathe al
| most to the end of his toes, is like unto
the familiar billiard ball as regards the
top of his head.
W. have always harborcd the delu-
sions that thc reason woman escaped
the calamity of having an expansive
and shining poll instead of her own
crown of glory was because she has
such remarkable agility of lower jaw
that in some way it prevents a deple-
tion of hair on her head, but this
learned London doctor upsets all our
firmly fixed laws of nature. 1t will
now be in order for him to begin the
examination of the eye to discover a
means of averting corns on the toes.
