PRIMARY SYSTEM
HAS COME TO STAY

The new State primary system has
been the subject Of a great deal OF COM
ment and discussion about the lobbies
and pther public places during Ehe
Horse Show. and it seems to be the con-
census Of opinion that 1t has come to
stay. There Is no doubt that the vi IA
vocc feature is unpopular, but even those
who have all along opposed the entire
system now realize that it has become al
most a tenet of the Democratic party,
and that it will hardly be erased from
its platform. The best friends of tho
plan have come to see that It's details
are imperfect but instead of repeating
1t, they propose to amend, and they de-
clare with much confidence that the
rank and file Of the party demand its
retention.
There was time not many months
ago when some leaders would say. "If we
have a primary In 1905" but now they
are willing to admit that primary will
be had with possibly the secret ballo:
substituted for the viva voce system.

To-day is Childrens Day at the Rich

likewise the last day Of the gala event.
AS it is a school holiday the children
OF the city will have ample opportunity
I to visit the many attractions, and for
trifling amount they may have whole
afternoon Of unalloyed entertainment OF
an educational character. The price OF
admission to the main gates and shows

the great Loop tho Loop, than which no
act is more sensational; Youturkey, on

"A special programme has been arranged
for the benefit Of the children, and they

and unhesitatngly said he thought Its
result would have an important bearing
upon the national campaign next year.
At present his efforts are chiefly address,
ed to the work of healing the factional
divisions which exist in the party. There
arc several candidates for the seat IN the
United States Senate now held by Mr..
McComas. and the President fears tho
full vote Of his party will not be polled
unless the jealousy and animosity which
now exist among those partisans can be
removd
The President has allowed himself to
be quoted freely by newspaper cores
pondents with respect to his feelings on
tho subject of the Maryland contest. He
also spoke to Senator McComas, who as
pires to be the Republican boss In Mary
land. in language that cannot be mis-
taken.
Said tho President to Mr.. McComas, II
am neither for nor against you. ! have
no candidate for the United States SEN
ate favor no mans candidate, ana Tor
any man to create the impression that
am for or against him is for that man
to make mistake
The President is reported to have told
Mr.. McComas In so many words thht
he expected him TO bury all personal
feelings, and to work for the good OF the
legislative and gubernatorial tickets re-
CARELESS Of any prejudices that exist.
The intense interest shown by the Pres-
dent in the Maryland struggle Is proof
that he does not believe the Republicans
arc going TO have a walk over" next
year. He has plainly said that for the
Republicans to lose Maryland this year
would be damper upon the national
campaign in 1904
OF all the elections to be held in No
vember, those in Maryland and New
York excite the most interest among poll
ticlans and the public. In the Empire
state chief interest centers in the NUM-
cipal elections in New York city, where,
as has been often told a curious political
complication exists.

delivery Breath of Hyomei Brings
Relief

Nearly every one whL has catarrh
knows how foolish it is to try and cure
it by drugging the stomach. Tenn
seldom comes.
Until recently your physician would
have said the only way to cure catarrh
would be to have a change of climate;
but now with Hyomei you can carry
health giving climate in your vest
pocket and by breathing it a few min
.tes four times a day soon cure your
self.
The complete outfit of Hyomei costs
but 81 90 and consists of an inhaler that
can be carried in the vest pocket, a
medicine .dropper and bottle of Hyo-
mel The inhaler lasts a lifetime, and
there is enough Hyomei for more than
a months treatment of catarrh. III
one bottle does not cure. an extra bot
tie of Hyomei can be obtained for so
cents 1t is the most economical OF all
remedies advertised for the cure of ca
tarrh. and is the only one that follows
nature in her method of treating
diseases of the respiratory organs.
Percy w. Means and Bowditch &
Webster have sold hundreds of Hy-
omei outfits and the most they sell the
more convinced they are that they are
perfectly safe in guaranteeing to refund
the money if Hyomei does not cure.
Those who are subject to catarrh or
catarrhal colds will do themselves an
injustice if they do not purchase a
Hyomei outfit at once so as to be pre-
pared for sudden changes of the sea-
son.
