New York law, the same name cam
not be on the ballot twice, and the
voter instead of making one mark
for the straight ticket must make
marks in several columns.
Every New York voter knows
what the effect of this provision is.
Unless the Wisconsin election law
be changed or the Wisconsin su-
preme court makes new law by
its Interpretation of the present one,
some of the electors will be in one
column and some in another col
umn.
In Indiana there are two repub-
lican factions, one composed of the
oldtimers, at the head of which is
Senator Fairbanks, republican can
didate for vice president, and the
other of the youngsters, who look
up to Senator Beveridge, word
painter from the Wabash, as their
leader.
In Indiana the democratic organ
ization is now in good condition.
In Wisconsin and Illinois the olive
branch must be waved, and Mr..
Sheehan will do it. On the repub-
lican side Senator Fairbanks, the
great negotiator, will manage the
Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana
campaigns.
There are 1859 electoral votes of
which Judge Parker is reasonably
certain. The electoral votes above
stated are: ''New York, 80; Illi-
nois, 27; Wisconsin, IA, and Indi-
ana, Is, a total of "a. They were
all carried for the democratic ticket
in 1892. That would give Judge
Parker 253 votes, or IA more than
is required, to say nothing of the
strong probability of his carrying
New jersey. Connecticut, Colorado
and Idaho. Judge Parker could
lose Illinois and still be an easy
winner, or if he carried Illinois he
could lose the other debatable
states, Wisconsin and Indiana.
This is all on the assumption
that Judge Parker carries New
York. Without New York he will
be defeated. In New York the cam.
paign will begin at once. It will
follow in general the form of organ.

found so successful. In the first
place, there will be thorough, sys.
tematie organization right down to
election district subcommittee
Aud in the second place, a persist.
ant appeal will be made to the great
body of conservative, working men,
who make up the mass of the vo.
ters, to choose Judge Parker rather
than Mr.. Roosevelt, and to base
their choice only on the princi.
ples of the two platforms, which diff.
! fer mainly on Imperialism, trusts
and the exorbitant tariff which
prompt the extortions of the trusts
but on the character of the two men
themselves. On the one hand the
ispasmodic, emotional, turbulent
Roosevelt, on the other the safe
1sane and conservative Parker.

didate for vice-president, got up
this morning at $50 O'Clock after q
restful sleep of eight hours and ate
breakfast that made his secretary,
who is about 20, feel like an inval-
id. Then, putting on his long boots
and taking his broad-brimmed farm
hat, be set out for brisk walk a.
cross the lawns of "Graceland," as
his palatial home back of Elkins is
called. He made his way to the
fields, where already the men were
opening haycocks in expectation of
a good hay day.
Mr.. Davis is an energetic farmer
as we'll as a man of affairs, and the
fifteen men on the broad estate
know that his quick eye sees every-
thing.
The first one of the farm hands
to gee him coming was the old dar-
ky, Abram Turner, bent double
with the load of years. Turner Is
the gardener. and his one idol in
this world is "Massa Davis" Tur-
ner is hot republican, but when
the news OF the nomination of Mr..
Davis reached him he threw
down his rake and exclaimed:
"Now am de day of jubilee,
and dis old darky is goin' foh to
throw his first democratic ticket"
and the old negro picked a great
armful of Maryland roses and
spread them across the piazza of
Graceland through which Mr.. Da-
Wis must pass in entering his house.
When Turner saw him coming
into the field this morning he get
up a shout, and the men, white and
black, gathered around the athlet-
ic figure of the wonderful old man
and shook his hand.
"It affected me morc," said Mr..
Davis to World reporter tonight,
"than all the congratulations I have
received. I suppose you will smile
when I tell you, but the greatest
pleasure that I have felt since they
woke me in my Car at Grafton at 8
o'clock yesterday morning and told
me that I had been nominated for
vice-president was when my sweet,
eleven-year-old motherless grand
daughter, Katherine Brown, who
Hives with me, came running across
the lawn to meet me, with her arms
outstretched to give me her usual
hug.
"tI knew you would be nominat-
ed, she said, and this was the more
surprising to me, because I had not
dreamed of being chosen. She is a
sweet little girl, with her mothers
brown hair ahd eyes. Her mother,
you know, is dead" and across the
handsome, kindly face of the man
swept the first light shadow during
the hour he bad been talking with
the reporter.

A sight that attracts the new
conner in Brownsville is a field of
cotton consisting of several acres
owned by Mr.. Mike Werbiski,
which would be considered an OBJ
ject of interest if not of wonder in
any country, as it is a continuous
growth from last years planting
without having shed its leaves.
The stalks in size are almost trees,
being from twelve to fifteen feet
high and for several weeks there
have been in plain view numerous
open burrs of white cotton. As
early as March there were blossoms.
numerous squares and pods of open
cotton on these trees at the same
time, which afforded a living de-
monstration of the mildness of this
winter climate. Any country that
can produce green corn, tomatoes
and other tender vegetables in
mid-winter, and with the mildness
of this climate permit cotton stalks
to grow year In and year out is
such as to attract capital and the
enterprise of the American people
in its rapid development. The
of the St. Louis,
Brownsville & Mexico railway or
what is commonly known as the
Lott road is practically finished as
the construction train is working
within the city limits to-day.
Within a short time. now this
wonderful section will be In touch

which will tempt buyers the year

How to Cook . Ham.


There is a delicious, delicate
flavor about properly cooked ham.
Be sure above all things that you
buy a good ham. 1t must be
fat. You cannot expect a ham to
be we'll favored if the juices run
out. Therefore a liberal covering
of fat is necessary. Scrub the ham
thoroughly and soak in cold water
for twenty-four hours. Place in a
large pot so that the ham is entire
ly covered with water. Let it come
to boil slowly and never more than
simmer. After removing the scum
add seasonings of cloves, bay leaf,
peppercorns and chopped onions.
1t should boil about half an hour for
each pound. When done take from
the pot, remove the skin and roll
in bread crumbs and brown sugar.
Stick it full of cloves and bake for
two hours in a moderate oven. Be-
fore going to the table make a rufle
of white tissue paper and wrap
around the ugly bone.
There are two boys who managed
to be rather unruly in school and
their teacher was so exasperated
one day that she ordered them to
remain after hours, and write their
names 1000 times. She watched
them plunge into the task. Some
fifteen minutes later one of them
grew uneasy and began watching
his companion in disgrace. Sud-
denly the first one burst out with a
roar of despair and between his
sobs said to the teacher, "Taint
