SUBSTITUTE FOR WATER.
Sugar Beet Pulp satisfes the Thirst
of Colorado Cattle,

Among the interesting exhibits in the
Palace Of Agriculture is Colorado's display
of sugar beets. While the industry in that
State is comparatively new, nine factories
In cities in various sections of Colorado
are utilizing all the beets they can buy
to manufacture sugar.
The sugar beet, it has been found. can
be put to several purposes. Chief among
these. after the susarmaker has used the
portion necessary in his business .s its
food properties for cattle. 1t Is a great
rattener. and thousands of Colorado cattle
are prepared for market on the pulp of
the beet. which is a residue Of the sugar
factories.
Cattle raisers and dealers have found
that their stock seldom goes to the water
troughs for water when fed on the pulp
OF the sugar beet. Chemists say the beet
is 80 per cent water, which probably ac-
counts for the small desire for water
on the part Of cattle that are fed on the
beet. In addition to the pulp. which is
sold by the factories for Is cents ton.
Colorado cattle-feeders need only to feed
their cattle ten pounds Of hay day to
fatten them,

Since the convention opened more than
90 physicians have come in. and gone out

criticism.

the enactment OF such legislation as

lines. They were much dispie1sed.
These men had tn. floor. replied
Clark Bell. There We're 80 papers to be
rt al at this convention. The question at
this conference was not regarding the
media by which consumption is COM
municated but whether or not tubercuio-
sis is n communicable disease II think
that every lsyman admits that it is a
communicable disease. Our congress met
to discuss suitable legislation to restrict
its spread. It becomes a matter of self
preservation when it is decided that
tuberculosis is a communicable Lisease.

"One more thing. These physicians who
are making these alleged complaints have
some pet ideas or remedies which they
wished to exploit and that is the reason
OF their objections. None of the physicians

The Unit Rule.


 The Democratic State Conventions are generally adopting the unit rule to govern the delegations to the National Convention, and there will probably be no effort made to break this rule un- less t stronger opposition to Parker develops and complications arise that will give opportunity for a prolonged contest for the nomination for Presi- dent.
 In the Democratic convention of 1884 the Tammany contingent, led by Thom- a resolute effort to break the unit rule, but 1t was defeated. Daniel Manning, on a call of the roll of the States. cast ing the seventy-two votes of New York under the unit rule to defeat the mo- tion. Grady and Cochran bitterly op- posed the nomination of Cleveland and were uproariously backed by the Tam many men. They declared that Clevo- land would lose New York If he were nominated, and would, of course, be defeated for President. The venerable ringing speech in behalf of Cleveland, In which he declared that the young men of the country wanted Cleveland for President, and. turning and shaking his finger at the Tammany crowd, said: '"rhey love him, gentlemen. and they respect him. not only for himself, for his character, for his integrity and judgment, but they love him most for the enemies he has made" To secure On the first ballot Cleveland received 329 votes. On the first ballot taken or the fourth day of the convention Cleve- lands vote was 474. and changes were quickly made running it up until his nomination was assured.

One More Month.
Mobile Register.

huOpIIS fScSlSt6Ts
 One month away from the assem- bling of the Democratic Convention in St. Louis and the selection of candt- date by the Democrats Is subject or much dispute. Tn the last three months the Parker boom has had two ups and downs and is now due up again; and the Hearst boom has had one up. and is now down for good. The George Gray boom Is just beginning. No other booms seem worthy of notice. Judge Parker has very decidedly the advant- age in the race, and 1t Is probable that he will be nominated. There are, how ever, two influences working against him. His association with Senator Hill and the thinly-veiled opposition of Tammany

Murphy wants most to control New York State in the State election and he believes he will be aided in this if, at the same. time, tion for Democracy Therefore. al though he has no personal liking fer Mir. Cleveland. he has pronounced in favor of MT. Cleveland for candidate;

 content to say that he Is not opposing however Is adverse and is having effect upon the thought of Democracy elsewhere. This Is the only thing that makes 1t at all uncertain what th., | convention will do in July. The Hill

Machine Men and Independents.

New York W0rlQ.
 No Democrat anywhere in the coun- try need be disquieted by doubt that the New York City Democratic machine will loyalty support Parker if he is nominated. The machine has no other candidate, is on record as approving Parker and would support him to man. Alike by instinct and by neces- sity Tammany must be loyal.
 It Is not the machine vote of either party that determines New York's yer vote-the vote that cannot be promised or delivered, the vote that is cast upon conscience for men and for principles that appeal to the general intelligence.
 Could any machine have been more harmonious than Croker's in 1896? Yet even New York County in that year gave Mckinley more than 10000 plu- raIity. Again in 1900 Croker assured the country before the Democratic Con vention that Bryan and tree silver were "all right" His machine in the campaign was enthusiastic. The in- dependents said little-but the State went Republican by 143,OO0.
 Compare that result with 1892, when the Tammany tiger was dragged by the tail to Chicago clawing at the scenery and emitting thousand miles of miaouling that Cleveland could not carry New York" He did carry it. The indpendent vote was cast for him; and SO, in spite of protest, was the | rammany vote.
 The machine is always for the regu- | lar nominee. It Is the independent vote that is uncertain. And as that vote goes so does the country.

A Warming to obstructionlsts.

Macon Ga, Telegraph-
 Parker is now evidently the cnofCt of the majority of Democrats and should be nominated If the Bryan Hearst delegates bow to the Nill of the people he will be nominated. But there seems to be almost as violent hostility in that element against Parker as against Cleveland, showing that it is not men but sound principles that are hated It convention may be tied up and the majority to be- a little less than two thirds-nay be defeated In that case the men who refuse Parker may have to ccspt the still more hated Cleve- land-or bolt. For if Parker cannot be nominated the Cleveland sentiment may reach overwhelming proportions in q single night. The Democrats are determined to have a man of sound and conservative principles this year and if defeated in thelr efforts to har- monize on Parker, they are likely to be tempted by Cleveland's commando ing influence with the country at large knowing that they cannot depend on the Brayanites in any case.
 If Bryan intends to bolt In any event when he fails to nominate his man there Is nothing tolbe said except that the sooner his present followers reveal themselves in their true colors and bolt the better. But if they are going to remain in the Democratic party, thev would be wise not to attempte to d0 feat the will of the majority as re- gards Parker, for if they do they may nave to swallow an even more bitter Dill
