That Treasurer Affair.

There is this to be said Of the DEM
ocratic convention i'm nominating Mrs.
Lucy Carbon as its candidate for city
Treasurer: 1t was an astutc, clean,
clear-cut political trick, and we give
the originator of it credit for possess
ing long head-but 1t Is only on the
principle that calls fair in love and
war" that the trick can be justified.
Mrs Carbon is sister of Miss Hattie
Smith, the present Recorder and can
didate for reelection on the Republic
can ticket. 1t is hoped that Mrs. Car
dons unqucstioned popularity will
elect her, but above all else it is hoped
that her presence on the ticket will
weaken her sisters candidacy and that
i'm the event the vote Is close between
Mrs. Ormsby's and Miss Smith, sutlici-
ent votes will be taken from the latter
to make Mrs. Ormsby election certain.
1t is not for Mrs. Gardens sake that
she was put on the ticket but Mrs.
Ormsby benefit, and the control OF
the Treasurer's money, and she has
been the victim of political trickery
in order that her sister may be sacri-
| feed. Mrs. Carbon knew nothing OF
the intention of the Democratic con-
vention, and the matter was sprung
on her as a surprise. In the excite
ment of the moment she accepted.
Since that time she has expressed a
desire to resign, but the Democrats
who tricked her refuse to listen to hel
and now that they have tricked hel
are attempting to bluff her into sub
mission.
The whole thing is one OF the keen
est, most palpable insults that coult
be offered any woman. 1t showed
that the men who engineered the
scheme hoped to catch her at dis
advantage or attributed to her a char
acter so small that she would becom
their tool willingly. This is not tn
work of men, but scheming trickster
who care naught for anything bu
political triumph. We do not say tina
the entire convention of Democrats
party to this miserable affair, for VI
doubtedly most in that body were q
ignorant of this schcming trickery a
was the victim herself, and 1t is onI

i'm the great majority of that Dem
ocratic body to believe that had they
known that they and Mrs. Carbon
were being worked by few scheming
men, they would have revolted.at the
idea.
The Democratic party has the right
to name its candidates, and any
person named has the right to accept.
but neither that nor any other party
has the right to take any man or
woman at a disadvantage and offer
such an insult as has been offered to
Mrs. Carbon in thus taking advantage
of her and making her tool to fur
ther political designs and against her
sister. The local Democratic organ
says, "private pressure Is brought to
bear to have Mrs. Carbon take her
name from the ticket, and thus stig-
matizes the fair name OF that family,
OF which she has the honor of being
member Mrs. Gardens statement
is that no pressure has been brought

to bear.
Mrs. Carbon should not be bluffed
from that ticket any more than she
should be bluffed into staying by that
ticket-but it is certain that, under
the circumstances, she is not obi
gated to the party in the least. Al
though the party nominated her and
would nominate her at any time she
wanted any Office, the party in this
instance was unconSciously the victim
of the men who engineered the
scheme. If Mrs. Carbon chooses t
recognize the insult offered her ant
take her name from the ticket, she
should do so without fear of injuring
herself, OR HER SISTER, an intimatior

Attention Republicans

Owing to the re-districting of the
city it must necessarily follow that
many of the old residents of Logan
who heretofore have been registered
are not in the same voting districts as
before. 1t is therefore suggested
that each voter shall know for himself
as to his exact location as TO the dis
trict in which he lives. After ascer-
tanning this fact they should also see
for themselves that their names are
upon the list. If not, then register
on Tuesday the 9th, as that is posit-
vely the last day. The names of the
Registrars are as follows:

Your Teeth
with her.

The REPUBLICAN Is not particu-
larry interested in the success of Lo-
gan's dentists, but certain observable
features lead us to commend them to
the people of this valley.
There are scores of people in this
city aud vicinity who are suffering
from dyspepsia and stomach trouble.
Many are living miserable existence,
wholly unable to enjoy life, simply be-
cause the food taken into their stom-
achs cannot be properly digcsted. In
many cases this is the result of having
decaycd teeth, and in some instances
none at all. The water in this coun-
try is impregnated largely with lime,
which is very hard upon the teeth,
and many people who have not
reached the meridian of life are found
with the same badly decayed. Some
people have their teeth attended to at
the right time and in the right way,
but there are many more who neglect
this really vital matter until they
have nothing more than a few old
''stumps" on which to chew theil
food before it passes into the stomach
Persons whose mouths are in this
condition are wholly unable to chew
their food properly, therefore il
passes into the stomach and lays
there for hours undigested. This
sours and ferments, causing great dis
tress, and if not relieved, a chronic
case OF indigestion or dyspepsia vii
follow. In this event many dollar
are spent for medical relief.
Persons with poor teeth should with
out delay have them attended to b.
filling and see TO 1t that the teetl
are kept clean and wholesome. Age
people whose natural teeth are pas
the stage of preservation, should hav
every tooth extracted and good tittin
plates made for the mouth. Their

Citizens of Mendon are justly COM
planning about the condition of the
road between their homes and Logan.
In almost every instance the dirt is
worn down from the culverts and
bridges, so that loaded teams are
stalled. In some cases there is a
jump-ofI of over one foot from these
bridges to the ground. The proper
officials should give this matter i'm
mediate attention. Farmers like
good roads above all things and they

The Most Capable.

One of the Democratic members of
the city council in speaking of the
respective candidates for mayor, said;
IL have worked with Mr.. Robinson
and know him to be good clean,
capable man. He is better prepared
to handle the light matter than Mr..
Anderson and ! will support him."
Whether or not this gentleman votes
for Mr.. Robinson, his honesty and
fairness is to be commended. He is
in a position to know perfectly about
the matter, and his opinion should
have its weight when it comes to max.
ing decision.

In the fifth Mr.. a. Burris is re-
garded as rough diamond. None

in his fidelity and honesty. The fact
that Mr.. Burris was defeated by only
four votes is proof Of his excellent

assuredly that defeat is hardly sufii-
cient to say that the ward believed

The Republican city committee has
decided that the place on the ticket
reserved for the name of the candi-
date nominated for attorney will be
left vacant. There will be no Repub-
lican candidate, and the decision is to
be commended. 1t shows plainly that
it is not the office the Republicans are
after, but efficiency. Rather than
place on the ticket name simply in
order to retain the Office, it has been
deemed the right and proper thing
to permit an efficient Democrat tC
win the race without opposition. Mr.
Keller will make the city capable
attorney and we congratulate him il
advance.

HOWARD COLLEGE NOTES

A committee composing one man from each of the literary societies, one mau from each of the fraternities and one from the student body conferred ed with a committee from the faculty yesterday which met and drew up the Collegian staff fer the coming year, which was later unanimously endorsed by the student body. The following composes the staff: J. T. S. Wade, editor in chief.
 J. o. Collie, business manager.
 P. P. Burns, J. A. Soms, literary edl- tors

 team can win half of the games they have arranged, the many friends of How and will be satisfied, as this is the first year that Howard has gone up against the strong college football teams.
 MT. F. c. Barlley, who represented Howard at the Oratorical association, which met at Montgomery this spring, has offered a good medal to be given to the young man who represents Howard this year. The Franklin and the Phlo- mathic Literary societies will have con tests some time soon, and two men will be elected to represent their respective societies, and the four will speak for the medal in the college chapel. The sue cessful one will receive the medal and will represent Howard in the Oratorical association this coming spring at Bir- mingham.
 Dr. Hobson, of Jacksonville Fla, who is an old Howard man, and who for four years was the pastor of the Baptist church here, talked to the boys for near ly an hour at chapel exercises last Mon day morning. He gave the boys some good advice and his speech was highly enjoyed by the professors and boys.

From the New 1ork world.
 The late ex-Senator Farwell of 1lli- nois, was conspicuous example of a type of man who will presently become extinct in this countryside old-fashioned Yankee who could turn his hand or his wit to any enterprise or to many differ ent ones, and excel in each or all He was born to poverty on a farm, but soon wriggled out of his birthright by six applications; he tried politics, real estate speculation. banking, dry goods and in all he succeeded.
 Such boys as Mr. Farwell was in 1S40 went with pioneer conditions and with the Glorious Fourth. They could fix with their own hands many small mat ters about the farm that in an older coun- try require the carpenter the tinker the veterinary. the pump-fnaker, the clock mender. And they had the invincibe faith in the future of their country with out which success upon large scale was then and is now impossible. There was poets imagination matched by Mir Farwel's ''plunging'' in Chicago land when there was scarcely any Chicago in sight and the swapping faculty of a horse-trader Down Easter" in his building the Texas state house and 'tak- ing out his pay" in many miles of vir- gin prairie.

Running a Lawn-Mower.

From the Washington Star.
 Running a 1awn-mower is like playing tennis. It looks mighty easy, but it is not" If the speaker had expected any one to disagree with him, he was disap- pointed, for his profound observation was received in entire silence by the group of men who sat on the porch of a country house.
 If lawn-mowers were recent inven- tions," remarked one of the group in a sort of dreamy, speculative fashion, you might expect to hear variety of opfn- ions on the statement just made, for na- turally at such a period in the history of the introduction of an invention but few gain any practical experience Their ideas would be based on pictures they had seen of the pleasing episode in the life of the happy suburbante. There he is shown by the gifted artist as having returned home after an arduous day in the hot city. He is greeted at the porch by his wife wear ing the latest things in summer gowns and looking as if she had not care in the world. About her are the children, also in stylish summer apparel.
 "They are waiting to see the husband and father run the lawn mower, the one excitement in their day, and not to disap- point their fond anticipations, he seizes the handle and starts gayly off, cheered on by the smiles of his acor1ng family. That is the picture of a seraphic lawn mower on lawn that was not made with human hands. The handle does not seek to penetrate the contented abdomen of the prosperous citizen, nor do it's knives skip over patches of grass without scarce ly leaving a trace behind. In fact, there is quite a catalogue of virtues of the ideal machine which the one the average man has to use does not have"
 "Then, it is your opinion," said the first speaker, that the real character of the lawn-mower is generally known"
 There is no doubt about that" was the reply. "The fact is that the machine Is so thoroughly understood that it's use is now confined only to those who know enough to handle it without reducing it to a condition that 1t has to be sent to the shop for repairs before it can be operated again. However. it is a useful and in- nocent form of taking exercise, and, like everything of the sort, has it's brief day as a form of recreation or even of work of amateurs

Why lntestines Do Not Diuest.

Translated for Public Opinion
 The digestive tube is filled with fer ments capable of attacking, of destroy ing, and of transforming the food with which they come in contact but these ferments attack neither the walls of the intestines nor the parasites which often live in abundance on these walls. What causes this condition? The question has often been discussed, and now the re- searches of M. b. Weinland on the tryptic ferment again bring the matter forward.
 In 1891 Frenzel stated that he believed the protection enjoyed by the intestines was due to the antiferments which are SC creted by living tissues. An experiment of M. Weinland along this line is very in. teresting. A mixture was made of fibrine and of trypsine or of pepsin, and the whole was placed to digest after little juice of ascaris was added No digestion occurred. The experiment may be pro- longed indefinitely, but the ferment does not attack the fibrine when the antifer- ment is present. Thus 1t is that it is not the living tissues that resist digestion, but the juices which impregnate them and which they secrete.
