ROOSEVELT is
CERTAIN TO- BE
THE NOMINEE
of the Republican Party in 1916
Declares Judge Sanders
of BIuefield.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. IL
Judge j. ii. Sanders, of Blueheld,
thinks that the Republican party will
come together again when Theodore
Roosevelt is nominated in 1916,
which Judge Sanders thinks viii sure
ly happen. In the meantime, he
thinks that the Fifth congressional
district can be kept safely in the Re-
publican column If Edward Cooper,
of Bramwell, is nominated to succeed
representative Hughes. The Judge
who is here for a few days, accom-
panied by his good wife, delivered
himself to that effect. He also put
forth the statement that it was mere
ly question OF time, and not a
len gtfly period of time at that, when
the Republican party would come
back into power in all branches of the
national government. Judge; San
ders is a cheerful party for any mel
ancholy minority brother to talk
with. He'll cheer him up.
At the present time Judge Sanders
is more Interested in Mr.. Cooper's
success than any other phase of the
political future. 81 believe that Mr..
Cooper will be nominated" he said.
Il believe that he ought to be, anu
regret that it looks like a contest for
the nomination. Mr.. Shot, OF Blue
field, you know is candidate 1t
would be much better for the party
if the nomination could be bestowed
without the necessity of contest,
and l think it ought to go to Mr..
Cooper that way. My reason for so
thinking is that he has several times
stepped aside for others, each and
every time being promised support in
the future. / believe that it is time
that he should realize on these prom
Uses; that they should be made good
Mr.. Cooper Is young and agrees
sive. He has the ability to make a
hrst-rate congressman and a frst-rate
candidate. He is able to finance his
campaign withdut calling on others
to do so. and that means something
for minority .party's campaign, can
Tell you. Furthermore. / believe that
Cooper's nomination would mean no

He is as progressive as they make
them, but as Loyalty Republican, too.
as they are made. I would like to
see him nominated and elected, and

er to bring such happy result
about"

GREAT 81 L7MP NOW
IN PAY OF MINERS
Lower and Lower is Amount

mines of the twenty-five owned by the
Consolidation Coal Company are OPP
Grated daily OF course, the opera
tion is distributed among the mines
Nut the AVERAGE daily operation is
limited in a number OF mines as stat
cd. Lack of market is the main
cause for the falling OF of operations,
an index of the poor state Of indus
rial activity in various parts of thu
country.
The normal pay OF the consolida-
ton company for work done in two
weeks is from $4,000 to $4,000 In
the Clarksburg district, but the last
several pay days there have been
heavy declines in the amounts paid
until the low ebb OF between $4,000
and $22, 900 has come.
Two weeks ago the Consolt dation
company paid its mines $4,000 and
the pay just before that was $4,000.
There seems to be no immediate pros
pect of better conditions or more &C

DANGER IN CREAM CAKE:
ADVISABLE PRECAUTIONS.
French Scientist Discovers Fatal Ba-
cili on Person of the Cook

Professor Chantemesse, the French
bacteriologist, has made a report to the
Paris Academy of Medicine which
should be of interest to all housekeep-
ers. A few weeks ago ten persons died
In the town of Cholet as the result Of
eating cream cakes. As there previous
ly had been similar though not fatal
epidemics in the same house the GOV
eminent instructed Professor Chante-
messe to investigate He found that
the poisoning was due to the presence
of paratypnoid bacilli.
Further inquiry showed that the
cook though herself perfectly immune.
swarmed with these bacilli thus I'M
consciously sowing the contagion. Such
contagion carrying persons. according
to Professor Chantemesse, are fairly
numerous.
The baeteriologist concludes his re-
port with a recipe for cream cake, say
ing that it should be prepared with
boiled milk and strictly fresh eggs.
The yolks should be stirred with milk
heated as much as possible and all the
utensils shorld previously be miners
ed in boiling water. The yellow cream
should he thoroughly cooled before be-
ing spread on the whipped whites OF
eggs. The whole should be kept in a
cold place until served
Before beginning work the cook s
hands should be washed and cleansed
with soap and brush and should then
be kept covered with white cotton
gloves during the operation. The pro-
! fesSOr adds that had the cakes been
| eaten Immediately they would have
| been harmless, but they were kept in
a warm place, where the germs multi

Argentine Railways.

The topography of Argentina is ia
vorable for railway construction, but
there are certain adverse conditions.
These are chiefly, so the Outlook
New York; learns from a pamphlet
just published by Mr.. LAWS, the emf
nent engineer, the scarcity Of stone
and gravel, and the high cost Of fuel,
He tells us that, owiAE to the scarcity
of stone, nearly all bridges are OF
steel. The expense Of importing grav-
cl or stone for ballast is partially
atoned for by the abundance Of
quebracho-a kind Of scrub oak-for
the cross ties, made from it last from
10 to p years. Coal has to be I'M
ported, and costs the railways from
SO to So a ten on the engines. In
Argentina, as in the United States the
national government exercises strict
supervision over the interstate rail
ways. Both countries, justly asserts
Mr.. LAWS, have arrived at the point
where the Importance IF the nati0nal
control and the lessena.l [alue CT the
sovereign rights of the constitu mi
states are becoming more and more
apparent.
