PREDICTS ELECTION OF
WOODROW WILSON.
New York Writer. Utah Visitor,
Thinks Democratic Victory as
Csrtain--Colonel is Chagrined.


Predicting the certain election OF
Woodrow Wilson. J. Maxwell Gordon,
a New York Journalist and political
writer, in Salt Lake gave his views on
the coming struggle Tor the highest
office in the land.
Mr.. Gordon has toured the country
since August 1911. ascertaining the
sentiment Of the voters and students
Of politics. His viewpoint is always
from a nonpartisan basis and he at
tempts to size UP the situation from
cold businesslikc facts.
More than a year ago in his articles
in New York paper Gordon predicted
the nomination Of Taft by the very
methods that were used in Chicago
in The convention. Theodore Roose-
welt. four years, ago, says Gordon,
fashioned and invented the steam
roller that gave the then secretary Of
war, Mr.. Taft, The nomination.
MI Roosevelt has been making
considerable noise over his defeat for
the nomination." he said. II don't
blame hin,--it is more bistcf to taste
your own medicine than to give il to
someone elsel7
Predicts Wilsoa Victory.
Gordon also predicted the nomin-
alton Of Woodrow Wilson several
months prior 70 the convention. lie
saidi
Wilson's policies mean victory.
While his personality is attractive. his
Jews are even more powerful. The
TACT that he is new md for that rea-
son said to untried IS really work

The veXatious subject of judging was
taken up soon after the delegates went into
session Each Of the systems in vogue was
tnrashed out, INCLUDING the individual
method under which intercollegiate fencing
bouts have been decided in the past, the
open" method In which the judges consult
as to the touches, and tho -four touches
and out method which in its eliminating
all penalties IS the manner In which the
Olympic fencing bouts will be decided.
So many meritorious features appealed to
the delegates in each of the methods that

McCULLOUGH'S LETTER

W. II. Mccullough, Deputy Sheriff Of
Ward County, Texas, from Barstow,
says that for eight years he had suffered
death from liver and stomach troubles.
And had taken everything from mineral
water to calomel Until it had eaten
his stomach and intestines into can
oerOus ulcers until any food would
throw him into terrific spasms. In
despair he came to FL Paso. And Dr.

and threw the blood TO my stomach.
And it and nv intestines shed their
Innings and threw the cancers out and

until the lining was out; then new skin
formed on my stomach and intestines
until now I am q new man. Don't have

think what an awful condition I was in.
And all the medical doctors would shake
their heads and say no hope After
they had cut of my appendix. and said
that would cure me. Then cut out my
liver for gall stones and said that
would cure me. Then after there was
nothing else to cut of, and no dope I
hadn't taken, left me to die in agony
and say there was no hope Don't be
foolish But write me if you don't
believe what the papers say. For they
cured me in the awful hour of nv
troubles. And I want everybody to
know it. Ny father investigated what
they were doing for others and found
they were all Ike me, overjoyed at

almost universally followed throughout
The south OF turning out cattle after
the crops are gathered and letting them
roam at large until the spring crops
begin to grow has prevented success in
many counties where tick eradication
has been undertaken. Counties where
this is permitted are known as free
range counties, while those having
laws against cattle running at large
are known as stock law" counties.
When stock law counties have been
cleaned further effective work must
wait until stock law is adopted in the
free range counties Cleaned cattle will
always be more or less exposed TO the
ticks in the infected free range re-
gions
Methods OF Eradication.
Another class of obstacles lies in the
methods Of graduating ticks, The
surest methods. those depending on
pasture rotation or feed lot systems
fail because they are not used. Rotation
is but exceptionally practiced. There
are few fences other than the single
pasture fence in the stock law counties
and the crop fence in the free range.
These methods are practically and the

only under certain restrictions and for
immediate slaughter. The ticks also
largely prevent the introduction and
breeding Of fine stock The damage and
losses caused by these parasites are
enormous, being estimated at from
s40,000.Oo0 to s2O0,O0O,0OO a year.
Systematic cooperative work 5y the
federal government and the affected
states for the eradication of these ticks
has now been in progress nearly five
years. and 1t Is Opportune to pause and
look over the field to ascertain what
has been accomplished, what obstacles
have been encountered, and what may
