THE EGG

holds II to the bunch. slips into the
oviduct (3-6) and, with the germ for
company. begins its journey to the
cloaca (8, the terminal.
This Is a birds egg view: From 3 to
4 the egg gets the albumen or white:
from 4 to 8, the soft skin; from 5 to 8,
the hard shell. Sometimes two and
even three yolks enter the oviduct at
once; hence the double or triple yolk
egg. Little yolkless eggs are a sign OF
diseased or exhausted ovaries.
That blood clot In the egg is not a
germ. but a drop Of blood from a hem
orrhage In the oviduct. Disease of pas
sage from 4 to 5 means eggs without
the skin: from 5 to 6, no hard shell.
The yolk alone means disease Of the
entire oviduct, probably gangrene.

WHAT MIR. MORRISON SAID
MT. Smith Was Given No Credit for Anything He Did Not Do, But He is Credited With Desiring to Do Much.

Judge Frank Cox, who took charge of the political fortunes of Mark Smith when he thought he heard the distressing cry of MT. Bryan for aid and rushed off to solidify the waver- ing vote of Cynthiana, which is in the state of Kentucky, for the Peer less One, has been engaged in mak- ing capital for Mir. Smith out of an alleged tribute paid to him by Hon. Frank Morrison.
 The statement attributed to Mr Cox, is that, Mr. Morrison had said that to Mark Smith was due the credit of having defeated the joint statehood bill. Mir. Morrison was re- ported to have said that to a man by the name of Reilly, though who Reilly is, nobody seems to know, and the most careful inquiry SO far failed to single him out from among the many excellent gentlemen of that name.
 MT. Morrison denies that he ever said anything of the sort and the hundreds who have heard him this fall in behalf of Ralph Cameron can surmise on what statement such a
 
 builded. Perhaps Mir Reilly may have been in one of the audiences and have gathered his story from the remarks of MT. Morrison on the rela- ton of Mark smith to the joint statehood legislation At least thou sands who have heard Mir Morrison at the beginning of all his speeches for MT. Cameron pay tribute to Mark Smith in this way: MT. Morrison invariably gave MT. Smith credit, not for what he had done. but for what he had tried to do and failed. as was inevitable in the face of a speaker who was bent on forcing the passage of the Hamilton bill. Any other democrat in Mir. Smiths place would have failed just as signally and it is doubtful, if at that time. any republican would have Rad more success. It was fated that the bill should pass the house for fate pre- sided fin the person of MT. Cannon.
 What Mir. Morrison conveyed was, that after it was evident that Mir Smith was powerIess to accomplish anything in his own house, a com mittee which had been sent to Wash ington determined to stop the bill somewhere along the line, disregard ed Mir. Smith entirely because it was apparent that he could be of no service at all; in fact, he was nat urally a handicap. for the fight against the bill had to be directed through a republican group in the senate. The democratic members of the senate needed no attention. All but one of them. Jones of Arkansas, were against jointure, for party reas- ons. Joint statehood, in their opin-

THE CAMPAIGN |S ALL OVER Both National Committees Have Stopped Work
 BOTH PROFESS CONFIDENCE
Chairman Mack Shows Signs of Hedging by an Allusion to the Possible Disastrous Effect of the Corrupt Use of Money Tomorrow.

New York, Nov. 1-At both the re- publican and democratic headquarters it was announced tonight that the work was at an end. Hitchcock at the republican and Mack at the dem ocratic both adhered to their previous estimates as given out Saturday, the democratic chairman saying that he was certain that Bryan would have 333 electoral votes and the republi- can chairman claiming 325.
 Both Mack and Hitchcock leave for home tomorrow to vote. The candi- dates are not through with their work yet, however, and both will continue in the fight to practically the last minute Taft goes tomorrow from Buffalo to Cleveland where he will speak in the afternoon and at Youngstown he will speak tonight. Bryan intends to put in tomorrow in Kansas.
 The republicans at their headquar- ters said they expected Mack to make the claims he had, in view of his statements through the campaign, but Hitchcock is willing to stand or fall by his estimate of 325 votes.
 Mack declared that the only thing that can defeat Bryan is the cor rupt use of money. He said he had sent instructions to get out the vote early and see it fairly counted. Hitch cock finished with. We are through and our fight is won"
 Chanler. the democratic candidate for governor of New York, will spend tomorrow in his home town, Red Rock, confident of success. The state leaders of both parties are confident but shrewd political observers admit that they are in doubt as to the out come of the state fight. From every quarter comes reports of defections from Hughes, but the leaders place little stock in these and say that what Hughes loses in his own party he will gain from the democrats. The independence league has a complete ticket in the field. and the leaders have been concentrating all their fire on Chanler.

MI. F. M. Murphy Appeals to
 All Voters
.FOR CAMERON'S ELECTION
It Means Early Statehood and
 Stimulation of Territorial Development, a Blessing in
 Which Democrats and Re publicans Will Share Alike.

The following statement by Mir. F. M. Murphy urging the election of Ralph Cameron for patriotic as well as business reasons. appeared in Sat Urday's issue of the Journal Miner of Prescott:
 T think I have some democratic friends in the county and territory that may not know how I feel about Ralph CamerOn's election, and who have good reasons for believing that l would not favor the election of any one to the high office of delegate. or any other office, not in my judgment best calculated to be the most helpful for Arizona. I take this occasion to say that I believe if Ralph Cameron is elected Arizona will be admitted during the short session; not that Ralph alone will do the trick. but his election as a republican will. Judge Taft is going to be elected as sure as the sun is to rise again.
 Why not put Arizona in a position to get the most there is obtainable, and therefore address my democratic friends and ask: Why cast your bal lots for Mark Smith in the face of the fact that you must know. if you will stop to think. that his election would mean another obstacle in the way of AriZona's advancement In saying what I have. I do not wish to be un- derstood as casting any unfavOrable reflection upon Mark smith, but | do say he ought not to stand in the way of statehood. and if he is not willing to step aside and let Arizona become a state at the earliest possible mo- ment. then his democratic friends should make him do so. Secure ad- mission, then fight for political ad- vantage, and if the state of Arizona is democratic, send Mark Smith to the United States senate and capture the other offices as well. but let us get statehood without further delay. Statehood means much to Arizona, much to the prospectOr, the merchant. the farmer and alL
 Tt will attract millions of dollars to the exceptional opportunities that wei come capital in Arizona. Personally I would find it much easier to get capital for railroad construction and the development of mines. The vote may be close, so I ask such democratic friends as believe in my loyalty to Arizona and are willing to trust my judgment as to what is best for Ari- zona. to cast their ballots for Ralph Cameron, statehood, a chance to sell and develop mines, and business ac- tivfty generally This is not political tommy rot.

AN INTERESTING PHASE
 OF BALKAN SITUATION
THE RUSSIAN ATTITUDE TOWARD
 THE AUSTRIAN LAND GRAB.
It Is Reported That the Annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina Will Not Be Recognized.

St. Petersburg, Nov. 1.-Interest in the Balkan situation is centered in the reported statements of several parlia- mentary leaders that Russia has de-
 termined to drop the idea of the pro posed international peace congress and will refuse to recognize the annexation by Austria Hungary of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This information. all though it DurDorts to be of an official nature, is not altogether credited. Rus sia is already believed to have com mitted herself to the principle that the question of annexation may be sub mitted to the conference. Austria will permit the status of Bosnia to be in cluded. The foreign office states that negotiations are still in progress.

So the democratic senators did not need any advice from Mr. Smith as to their proper course with reference to the Hamilton bill Jones alone, who was already becoming known as a White House democrat" ultimately voted with the jOintists against the FOraker or Burrows amendment.
 For strong party reasons the re- publican senators were inclined to jointue. It was not only an admin istration measure. but from a selfish party point of view it was good poli- tics. It promised the exclusion of two more democratic senator's
 It is plain that Mir. Smith could be of no service in the senate and it did not seem at first as if the most influential of the republican members of the Arizona committee could be very effective. Finally, be- ginning with Senator Foraker., a re- publican nucleus of opposition was formed and it grew until with the certain aid of the democrats the Foraker amendment was adopted and jointure was averted.
 MT Morrison was one of the most active members of the Arizona com mittee. He was aware of everything Mark Smith did not and could not do and he was familiar with all the circumstances attending the building up in the senate of the successful opposition to the jointure bill. This Is briefly the story of the statehood fight
 MT. Smith certainly could not be given credit for any accomplishment however much credit he might be given for wanting to do something. MT Smith never worked harder in his life than he did through those strenuous weeks. If he were elected again he could not work so hard in favor of a single statehood bill, and if he had the same spur to his ener- gies that he then had, he would be just as helpless as he then was.
 In the coming fight he could re- ceive no aid from an Arizona com mittee, for no committee would have the hardihood to ask for the passage by either a republican senate or house of a bill for the admission of a territory then Haunting, Mir. Smith in it's face. L
