PRELIMINARY STEP
 DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN
CauCuses Last Night for the Choosing
 of Delegates.

The democrats at their caucuses last night selected a line up for the grand rush at the primaries. It is hard to tell just what the selections indicate, for the entire party seems to be at sea in respect of candidates. John T. Dunlap was regarded as the logical candidate for mayor until the vacancy in the city council occurred through the death of F. B. Moss. Mir. Dunlap just now seems to be undecid- ed whether he would rather be mayor or councilman and his friends are uE- decided about which position they would rather run him for.
 But it is noted that there has been an infusion of new blood into the of fIcial ring of the party. and the old familiar names of Kruger, Baker, Alexander, ct al., do not appear in the second ward list. Similar changes are noted in the other wards. In the fourth, for instance the familiar name of w. T. Smith is missing. and up in the first there is a sort of longing that is not satisfied.
 The list of those selected in the third ward could not be secured last night. There were seven other eau cuses to look after and it was not pre- stunned that the third ward people were so modest as to hide their light under a bushel so carefully that it could not shine after 10 o'clock. Inquiry was made of every third ward democrat

Not a man of them could be found, nor could any one be found who had heard what had been accomplished.

GIVE HER A CHANCE
Old Dame Nature Knows How.

"Old dam nature has sure way of
curing sick people by food if the kind
she wants is supplied the body and the
person don't interfere with drugs.
She preseribes such things as fresh
air and sunshine. exercise and right
food as her principal agencies.
Grape-Nuts is a natural food. pre-
pared from wholesome grains, with no
drugs nor chemical ingedients or pro-
cesses, and is shipped from the factory
in such predigested fitness that the
weakest stomach will readily assimi-
late it.
An Ohio woman who suffered for
twelve years from nervous prostra-
ton, night sweats, imperfect ciculation,
insomnia, etc, tells how Crape-Nuts
food restored her to health and happt-
ness in less than twelve weeks.
Il was SO reduced in strength with
untold suffering, without vitality or
ambition, bed-ridden and unable to
even wait on myself, that felt obliged
to doctor all the time, taking one pre-
scripticn after another, but deriving
no permanent benfit from any. Some
times I would feel better for little
while, but soon the effects of the medi-
cine would pass away and I would
lapse back to my former condition.
Last May at my mothers solicita-
ton 7 concluded to quit medicines and
try Grape-Nuts food. It did not work
a miracle at once. but slowly and sure
~. day by day. it built me up and
strengthened me. I soon began to sit
up, then to work little. then to get
out to see my friends gaining mean
while in sleep, till at last, by the end
of June I was able to leave home for a
visit (taking my Grape-Nuts with me,
be sure,) returning after few weeks,
completely restored. with a healthy in
terest in my domestic duties. and
thank heaven, the strength to perform
them.
THAT is so. and that am stronger in
mind also and quicker and more vIgor-

ORGANIZE TRAFFIC BUREAU.
Shippers of NIusEogee Continue Fight
on Railroads.

Muskogee, /. T., Jan. IA regular
trafI1c bureau has been organized in
practically all the freight shippers in
the city. The organization has been per-
feeted by electing T. P. Smith, presi-
dent; G. E. Reid, secretary and E. W
Mcclure, treasurer. This organization
will perfect plans for centralizing all the
freight handled by Muskogee merchants,
with the view of reducing the rates, if
possible, and having as much as possi-
bic of it shipped via boats to Fort
Smith. where it gets the advantage of
a water rate.
The organization of this traffic bureau
is the direct outgrowth of the boycott
of the railroads on the river shipping
at Muskogee. The merchants have al
ready engaged the boat for all the
freight it can carry for several trips
ahead, and it is now certain that the
railroads are either going to lose a lot
of freight or that the shippers are go
ing to get water rates from the rail-
roads,

Lansing, Mich. Jan. 16.ZThe state
board of railway assessors has com
pleted the annual assessment of the
railroad properties of the state. The
amount which the railroads are re-
CURED to pay is s3.02O,521, and the
average rate is s14.61, the assessed
valuation being S207.080. 600 The
last assessment was S3,330,350, the
rate of taxation being 1882 on an
assessed valuation of s196,795, 000.
While the assessed valuation this
year is higher by over $4,000, 900, the
taxes to DE paid are 100000 less.
This is due to the application of the
Ga1braith law passed by the last leg
islature which gave the board of rail-
way assessors power to equalize valu-
atoms as between the general prop
critics of the state and the railroad
properties. The board. acting under

SERIOUS CHARGES BY TAFT.
Says Southern Pacific Is Hindering
Work on IstIlnian Canal.

Says Southern Pacific Is Hindering
Work on IstIImian Canal.
Washir gton, Jan Charges by. Sec
retary Taft and Chief Engineer Stevens
of the Isthmian canal commission that
the Southern Pacific is responsible for
the freight congestion on the Isthnfus
of Panama formed the most interesting
development of a four hours hearing
yesterday ON canal affairs before the
deficiency subcommittee of the house
committee on operation. The Southern
Pacific company controls the Pacific
Mail Steamship company according 10
the statement of the secretary and Mr..
Stevens who says that since the abro-
cation of the freight agreement between
the Panama railroad and the steamship
company. the latter has been dilatory in
calling for San Francisco freight on the
west side of the isthmus. It is charged
that steamers frequently refuse to stop
to take on freight and even leave port
with only a partial cargo, while great
quantities of freight lie on the wharVes.
1t was alleged that the apparent mo-
tive for this course on the part of the
steamship company was to hinder ma
terial intended for the canal to be de-
Iivered at Colon by the steamship opera
ted by the government from New Y DIRK ].
so that shipments would be necessary
over the lines of the Pacific mail from
san Francisco. That the blockade had
had this effect was asserted by Chief
Engineer Stevens who said that several
cargoes had been shipped via San Fran
cisco and over the Pacific main line for
this very reason. Other shiuments viii
go this way unless an end can be made
ia the blockade.
1t was suggested by several members
of the appropriation committee that the
Pacific mail might be Induced to act
more promptly If the United States We're
to threaten to cut off mail contracts
with the company and other members
urged that the coastwise shipping laws
are adequate to punish any neglect on
the part of the company.
