HljOSE WELT WINS
ILLINOIS PRIMARY
Plurality Over Taft in State Is
Estimated al l25,00O.
CLARK VICTOR OVER WILSON
Deneen, Republican, and Dunno,
Democrat. Capture Nominations
for Governors Senator CuIIom De-
feated by Sherman.

Chicago .-Theodore Roosevelt, re-
publican, and Champ Clark, demo
crat, swept the Illinois primaries.
Roosevelt carried Cook county by
$4,000, while Clark carried the coun-
ty by 10000 majority
Rooseyelt's plurality in the state
is estimated at more than 5000,
while that of Clark may total $780,
600.
Roosevelt, it seems now, will have
instructed for him at least fifty Of
the fiifty-eight delegates of the state
to the Chicago convention, eight at
large and forty-tWo district dele
gates.
Senator La Toilette polled small
vote. In Cook county, where it ap-
peared heaviest, the senator had an
apparent vote of 14,440, where
Roosevelt's apparent vote was &c.
LA and that Of Taft 52,064.
Clark may get every one of the
fifty-eight delegates to the Baltimore
convention
The vote cast in the first popular
presidential primary in any of the
great states Of the union was ire
mendous. The total democratic vote
was over 100000, the republican
nearly 100000.
Governor Charles S. Deneen won
out along with Col Roosevelt in an
apparently easy victory Indications
are that his plurality will be 50,-
600.
Senator Shelby M. Cullom, how
ever, lost After being in Office for
more than fifty years, at 80 years of
age, he had notice served upon him
that he must retire from the United
States senate on March 4, 1913.
Lawrence Y. Sherman won the
republican primary Endorsement
against Cullom.
The democratic fight for the CUB
ernatOrial nomination was close, but
Edward F. Dunno, former mayor of
Chicago, seems to be the winner. He
carried Cook county ty about 50,-
600.

Rash ALL OVER BABYS BODY
Itched SO He Could Not Sleep

"On July q, 1909, we left Boston for
trip to England and Ireland, taking
baby with us. After being in Ireland
few days nasty rash came out all
over his body. We took him to doc
tor who gave US medicine for him.
The trouble started in the form of a
rash and was all over baby's body,
head and face, at different times. 1t
irritated, and he would scratch it with
all his might. The consequence was
1t developed into sores, and we were
afraid it would leave nasty scars on
his face
when we reached England we took
baby to another doctor, who said his
condition was due to change of food
and climate, and gave more medicine
The rash got no better, and it used to
Itch and burn at night so bad that the
child could not sleep. He was com.
pletely covered with it at different
times. It was at this time that my
mother advised us to try Cuticura

cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for
about nine months the places digap

1t was the great mission of the late
Baron Lister to make surgery safe
soon after the application OF anaes-
thetics had made it painless, and his
reward was a half century, almost, of
cumulative public appreciation of the
vital Importance of his discovery OF
modern surgical practice, says the
New York World. The peerage con-
ferred on him by Queen Victoria, the
first, 1t is believed, that was ever be-
slowed in England for services to
medical science, only partly measured
humanity's gratitude to him, and he
dies honored as few of his contempt
raries have been for more spectacular
achievements. Listers studies OF sep
tic poisoning ensuing. from surgical
operations were begun when he was a
young house surgeon in Edinburgh.
but it was while professor at the Uni
versity of Glasgow, between 1854 and
1867 that he found the cause and the
means of prevention which were to
revolutionize surgery. His carbolic
spray is now obsolete and his antisep-
tic methods have been variously i'm
proved upon. But aseptic surgery is
today essentially what Lister made it.
and to him Is mainly due the reduc-
ton of hospital mortality which is one
of the chief distinguishing factors be-
tween the old surgery and the new.

"You dor

heartily.
No other word passed between them
until they arrived in front Of the hotel.
He reached up, after he had alighted,
and grasped her hand. She had i'm
pulsively put out her own to meet his.
"Fll try to be- he began, and then
hesitated.

on him. you won't find yourself Of
much use in the world unless you cul-

you SO that you will listen to your
good grandfather when he has advice
for you"
She did not allow herself to be- too
serious. There was the delicious drawl
in her tone that had attracted him at
first.
He went to his room and sat down to
digest that political philosophy. II
some one beside Madeline PressOn had
said it, 1t would have seemed to him
like the voice of the tcmptress. But
she had already won his confidence
in her sincerity. He wished that he
could feel that her interest in him
had more of a personal quality than
she had admitted. He did not like to
remember that it was simply affection

for his grandfather that prompted her.
He did not understand very well what
he was to do to obey her suggestions.
He did not understand himself exactly
at that moment. But along with his
loyalty to General Weymouth a new
desire sprang into life within him. He
wanted to show Luke Presson's' daugh-
ter that Harlan Thornton could play
the game Of practical politics as well
as Herbert Linton, and in the end
would be more deserving of her re-
spect.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1912-02-29


Its all fine and grand in story
books, Mr.. Thornton, for the hero to
sacrifice everything for his ideals, but
in these very practical days he's only
classed as a fool and kicked to one
side"
'You defend Linton, then? Is that
the kind Of q man you hold up as a
success, Miss Presson?" His grudge
showed in his tone.
You will please understand, sir, that
we are not discussing theories just
now. This isn't a question Of what the
world ought to be. It's the plain fact
about what q man must be If he's TO
get results. You and l both have
heard your grandfather say many
times that he'd like to play politics
with angels-if only he could find the
angels. l want you to understand that
my father has had nothing to do with
my talking to you like this"
He turned to her accusingly.
"But know perfectly we'll" he said
bitterly, that it isn't any personal in
terest you take in me that makes you
say it. You don't think enough Of me
for that" 1t was resentment SO naive
" boyish that her astonishment check
ed her remonstrance. He rushed on.
You hold up Linton for me to follow.
That's the kind Of man you admire.
He's an orator, and he's smart. and he
wins. I'm only an accident. You don't
care anything about me, personally.
But you're talking to me because my
grandfather asked you to. That's It,"
He guessed shrewedly.
That outburst betrayed him. This
young man from the north country
was very human after all, she de-
cided.
"I have said before, this is cam
paign Of honesty. Your grandfather
did ask me to talk to you. / didn't
have the heart to refuse him, for I'm
very fond Of him"
It was an acknowledgment that
etung his pride. But more than all,
It stirred that vague rancor he had
felt the first time he had seen Linton
appropriate her.
He did not choose gallant words for
reply.

his intimates was not caused by any
worriment over the size of the plural

General Weymouth retired to the
brick house in Burnside and gave ear
to those who promptly made his home
the Mecca Of the state. The day was
full Of cares, duties, annoyances and
the nagging pleadings Of persistent pc
titioners. Harlan Thornton, now rep
resentative elect from the Fort Cant
bas district, became still more indis-
pensable In General Waymouth's daily
life. Duties at desk had worn upon
him. This everlasting mingling with
men was more to his taste. He had
natural adaptability. He was a good
judge Of human nature. He had serene
good nature. Physique and manner
made him master Of many situations
at the old brick house that otherwise
would have sadly tried the generals
