A Useleas Race.

- SSSiSvS ndCcs
At this moment it is not known
whether Mr.. Bryan or Mr.. Stockton
will be Mr. Blounts' opponent in the
primary of January 81.
From all advices, however, the, vote
favors Mr.. Bryan, and he will, in all
probability, be one Of the candidates in
the second campaign.
The country vote. which is always
slow in reporting, and which is large
ly claimed by Mr.. Stockton. may pos
sibly make him the candidate, though
that contingency is doubtful.
1t is not to be expected that the later
returns will materially change the rel
alive position Of the three candidates,
nor that the proportion of votes re-
ceived by them be very much altered.
The returns are incomplete, but they
| show that Of the forty-seven counties,
| two have not reported at all, but a
statement IS received from one of them
, TO the effect that Blount led in thas
county. That in fifteen counties Blounr
has majorities. and IN nine he obtained
pluralities. Bryan had majorities in
| three counties, pluralities in six.
Stockton had majorities in four coun-
| ties and pluralities in six, with one
county tie between Blount and Bryan
for the plurality.
| Taking into account the fact that
Mr.. Blount's lead over his nearest op.
ponent. as the figures now stand, is
! over four thousand. and assuming that
the unreported vote will be about the
same proportions as the vote whicn
has been reported. Mr.. Blount coulo
give his opponent in the second pri-
mary even-eights of the vote cast fol
the third candidate in the first primary
and still be elected.
| 1t is difficult to see how any candi-
date can expect to overcome Mr.
Blounts lead, when the full force OF
the figures are taken into considera-
ton.
Mr.. Blount looks like winner to the
ordinary layman.--Niami Herald.

THE YOUNG BRIDES
FIRST DISCOVERY

Their wedding tour had ended, and
they entered their new home to settle
down to what they hoped to be one long
uninterrupted b]issful honeymoon.
But, alas! the young brides troubles
soon begin, when she tried to reduce the
cost of living with cheap big can baking
powders.
She soon discovered that all she got
was a lot for her money, and it was not
all baking powder, for the bulk of it was
cheap materials which had no leavening
power. Such powders will not make light,
wholesome food. And because of the alb.
sence Of leavening gas, it requires from
two or three times as much to raise cakes
Or biscuits as it does of Calumet Baking
Powder.
Thus. eventually, the actual cost to

than Calumet would be.
Cheap baking powders often leave the
