mfr. Poole, excuse me; 1t Is quite
useless to talk to me- any more on
this line. My mind is made up, and
nothing you can say, or anyone can
say, will change IT,"
"Mr. Gormly," said Benson. rising,

the mastery of his voice, in some
ways you're a mighty smart man.
You have begun this movement bril-

now makes me. regard you as. you'll

you for your compliment. Your opin-

stamp as damned fools who have done

Poole, Mr.. Fitchett. l wish you good
afternoon" .
The disguised delegation tramped
out. The three men had to run the
gauntlet of reporters outside the bust
ness office. They communicated
nothing whatsoever Of the results OF
their interview to these assiduous
young men.
Gormly, however, was more amen
able to their appeals for an interview.
One resolution Gormly had taken; to
give the people the fullest informa-
ton all the time about what he pro-
posed. He was willing to discuss any
public question at any time with any
one, and he had no objections to his
opinions being quoted.
Gentlemen" said Gormly to the
group of newspaper men. "as has al
ready appeared in the press Of the
city, these gentlemen who have just
left came to offer me the nomination
of the minority party for the office for
which l have proposed myself. l
thanked them for the honor that they
had done me; declared that should
appreciate the individual votes OF any
members of that or any other party
at election time; but refused posi-
lively to allow myself to be tied up to
any party, to be allied with any party,
to be the candidate Of any party. l

Isn't Mr.. Poole stakeholder In
the Gotham Freight Traction COM
pany?" asked one of the reporters.
Il know nothing whatever about
Mr.. Poole's financial undertaking."
Doesn't Lawyer Fftchett desire to
run for district Attorney" asked an
other.
Il am not informed as to the polit-
lcal ambitions of Mr.. Fitchett."
What did Bill Benson say to your"
asked third.
"As practical politician of large
experience, he ventured to give me
some advice upon the conduct Of my
campaign"
did you take it?" asked another
amid the roar Of laughter which greet
cd this reply.
II am sorry to say that the cogency
Of his arguments and the force of his
representations did not appeal to me
as he expected. My methods are so
different from those he advocated that
1t is hardly possible to harmonic our
views or practises."
Il think that will be all this after
noon, gentlemen" said Gormly, rising
to signify that the interview was over.

Dying by ORGANS.

1t has been discovered that II a
human being dies after an ordinary
illness and not q violent death he
does not die all over and all at once.
He may have diseased liver, heart
or lung. and this may be the cause
of HIS death; but 1t has been found
that If the diseased organ could have
been replaced by a healthy one life
might have been maintained indefi-
nitely. This is no Imagination or
speculation. It has been confirmed
by the most careful experiments by
the ablest medical scientists in the

AUSTRALIA SERVES NOTICE
American Meat Packing Organi-

Drastically.

Melbourne, Feb. 27.-The common
wealth of Australia served notice on
the business world today that it
would not harbor foreign trusts. The
following memorandum was given
the press by Sir R. w. Best, minister
of trade and customs; For several
months it has been an open secret
that representatives of the American
meat trust have been visiting Austria
liza, ostensibly with the object of in.
volving Australia. Immediate and
drastic action to discourage and if
necessary to prohibit its operation
will be taken in Australia. The ac-
ton of the government will extend to
trust operations in Australia whether
conducted directly or indirectly and
will not permit the repetition in Aus
tralia of the scandals and merciless
methods characterizing monopolies in
other parts of the world"

Central Railroad with the M. K. & T
The Texas Central includes 2GS miles
of track from Waco to Rotan and a

ALFALFA FATTENING FEED
FOR HUMAN BEINGS.

Hot Springs s. D., Feb. 27.-It has
remained for Mark Rich. an alfalfa
enthusiast here, to discover that al.
falfa is as good for fattening human
beings as it is for adding weight to
horses. cattle, hogs and sheep. He
gave his experience at banquet of
the local commercial club, on his re-
turn from Pierre, where he attended
the dry farming congress. To test
his theory he made tea of carefully
selected leaves. and. drank of the
brew. He says the addition of the
alfalfa extract to his rations caused
a gain of ten and one-half pounds in
two weeks. He then tried it on the
baby, who because of her size has
been nicknamed Midget" and says
she showed a decided gain by the use
OF the alfalfa diet.

the stormy weather, very little outside

Friday. The work on the excavation
for the big fume is being pushed as
rapidly as possible. one warehause
has been finished near the terminal
of the railroad and the work OH the
cottages, Office buildings is pro-
crossing nicely. The track from Cut.
ter has been laid as far as Ash Can
yon Trestle and it is expected that by
the end of the present week the track
will be laid to the dam site. For the
first time since it has been built the
concrete tank on the hill above the
camp has been filled with water. The
capacity of this tank is three hundred
thousand gallons. Several cars loads
of lumber and other materials and
supplies have been received at Fngle
and are being hauled by wagon from
that point TO the dam. This is a slow
process on account of the bad con
dition of the roads. the result of re-
