until 2 P. M. Opera House Orchestra IN ATTENDANCE VAd among us. The primary election law limits the time for holding the state convention to the period between May 1 and May 15 and who is wise enough to detect any benefit that would accrue to either candidate for senator by holding the state convention on any one of these 15 days? The committee fixed the date for the convention for the 14th. The primaries will have been held, the people will have expressed their choice for senator at the primaries held Apri 28 and the time for holding the state convention could cut no figure with that verdict.

It is apparent therefore tha't the conclusions of the young men who write for these papers that are inclined to see things that do not exist must be taken with great allowances. for errors In judgment. These things only go to show the limitations put upon manufactured booms by the new- law which refers the whole thing to the people themselves.

CARLOS MAY ABDICATE. At Outs With Queen on Account of a Fair South American. Paris. Feb. 15.

in exclusive circles of society is whispered the extraordinary rumor that King Carios of Portugal Is seriously thinking i.f abdicating his throne. And many who know the jolly fat monarch, crack shot and lever of all sports, believe it. These same gossips smile at the r.opularly credited story that the kiug and l.ls accomplished "new woman" queen live in idyllic domestic felicity. They remember that a young and charming South American born countess, well known here appeared in Paris when the king came not long ago on a visit and they say it was not mere coincidence, for the king is understood to be infatuated with her. They explain that on the rountess' account king and queen are not cn speaking terms.

The Illinois retail merchants' associ ation has put itself on record as fav oring railroad revision and told Presi dent Roosevelt the truth about it.

The reform legislature of Ohio is driving the ax to the roots. The lower house. 107 to 1. put through a bill nx-ing passenger rates on' railroads at 2 cents a mile, adopted resolutions for election of senators by direct vote of the people, and is seriously considering a measure imposing a tax on bachelors for the support of old maids. Looking at Ohio from a safe distance gives (he impression that the country is safe.

They have a beauty doctor in New York City who in the matter of exclu-siveness and high charges puts all others in the shade. She has come from London for a stay of only three weeks, bringing letters of recommenda tion from persons of title, including, it is said, one from Queen Alexandra. Her fee for a consultation is $250, but In spite of this formidable figure she has secured a number of patients, though because of her short stay she can treat them only a few minutes. Such fees sound like a fake but think of Fads and Fancies. BY PETITION.

Following is section 2 of the primary election law: Sec. 2. Nothing In this act contained shall be construed to prevent nomination of candidates for any office or offices by petition, by any party as therein defined, pursuant to the provisions of sections 4. 3 and 6 of an act entitled "An act to provKle for -the printing -and distribution of i ballots at public expense, and for the nomination for candidates for public office, to regulate the manner of holding elections, and to enforce the secrecy of the ballot." approved June 22. 1891.

in force July 1, 1891: Provided, that the petition for such nomination shall be filed with the proper officers on or before 12 o'clock noon, of the day previous to the day fixed for the primary election under the provisions of this act. Applying to the primary election for the city, which is now- before the people and in process of execution, only those candidates for nomination who filed their petitions not later than Feburary 10, will be voted for as candidates for nomination at the city primaries, but under the section above quoted one may become a candidate by petition under the general elec- tha nmp nffire nrovidinsr Hhe aspirant for said office files his petition 21 hours prior to the opening Aot the polls of the primary election, ind Is a member of a party entitled to In- such case the primary election aw machinery has nothing to do with uch candidate except that it defines what constitutes a party ana mat, uch petitioner must belong to a poli- ical organization which is a "party" inder the law.

It is past the comprehension of honest men how those who profess to be honorable can betray or embarass a friend and yet that i3 what the high-minded and educated Senator Lodge is charged with. The senator has been a close friend of the president in a social sense. They have been much together and the president has been known to have counseled with the senator on many Important political and state matters. These relations have been commonly known among senators and members of the house, and for that reason when Lodge expressed his views on matters in which the administration was interested it was accepted as the voice of the pres ident himself. Such relations as these should be sacred.

Senator Lodge is op posed to the railroad rate bill as it came from the house. He is among those senators who are anxious to amend the bill so that the railroads may at once appeal to the courts from the Interstate commerce commission's decision fixing a rate. Such an amend ment. it appears would defeat the pur pose of the bill because, upon an ap peal the fiction of the courts being ne cessarily slow, the entire conditions upon which the rate was fixed by the commission would change and nothing would ever be permanently fixed. In a speech Jn the senate.

Senator Lodge intimated tiiat the president fav ored such an amendment. His relations with the president, being so, well known, led the senators to believe that Mr. Lodge spoke advisedly. This meant that the president, who had fully endorsed the bill as it came from the house, had surrendered to those who are opposed to rate legislation. When the president was advised of Lodge's statement he promptly sent for those with whom he had advised on the matter of rate legislation and assured them most emphatically that Lodge had not the slightest warrant for Involving him in that way; that he was in favor of the house bill as it stood and opposed to all amendments of whatever kind except verbal changes to perfect the text.

Eo earnest was the president that his anxiety caused him to wire Senator Cullom. who is in Florida, and who. as a member of the interstate commerce committee Is backing the president on this legislation, the facts as above stated. This leaves Senator Lodge in an embarrassing position and yet he brought it upon himself by trifling with his friendly relations with the president. There is no excuse for betraying a friendship in thi3 wanton manner.

It is as reprehensible and unmanly as the conduct of those who are admitted into a special conference with the president and who go out and repeat what was said by the president. Such con duct is extremely hurtful and those who are guilty of it should be con demned by the people everywhere. It is necessary for any president to cTts-cuss matters of importance with citizens in a private and confidential way. These conferences often lad to understandings and legislation ot importance to the country, but if men cannot regard them as sacred, presidents will be compelled to go into seclusion or take the chances of betrayal every day by men whose sense of honor is defective. The country will not approve the course of Senator Lodge because It loves a fair deal and the chances are the senator has so over-reached the proprieties of close friendship in an effort to bolster up a proposition he favors and to which the president and the country is opposed that the cause be sought to advance will be damaged and defeated- as a result.

CONCULSIONS MADE TO ORDER. Some designing newspapers are attributing to the republican state central committee motives and actions that there is no reason to believe governed them. We are told that the committee at its meeting last Wednesday acted against the interests of Senator Cullom by refusing to endorse him as a candidate for United States senator; that it acted against him by requesting that county central committees refrain from endorsing the candidacy of any person for United States senator and that it acted against Cullom's interests in fixing the time for holding the state convention. May It. This has the appearance of conclusions made to order without warrant.

The primary election law was enacted for the purpose of taking away from committees elected for that purpose and other organizations made for lhat purpose the power to determine by high handed methods for which candidate the county should be counted for and transfer that powrr to the voters themselves at a legalized primary election. This being the case no self respecting central committee in the case in hand would think of endorsing either candidate for senator That, under the primary law is the people's business and not the business of the committee. So far as known both senatorial candidates have submitted their claims to the people and not to central committees because what a central committee elected two years ago might say about jt would have no weight, if the state central committee in the of the primary election law undertook by resolution to endorse either Yates or CuUom it would Injure instead of benefit him. The members of these committees under the law have no more to sav in the A TRAINED NURSE Men's Shoes Hanan's Sons' patent Kid Dress Shoes, QQ sizes broken, $6.00 grade $Ui90 Hanan's Pat.

The doctors prescribed for me, yet I did not iuiive.

I would bloat after frequently become nauseated. I hail pains down through my limbs so I could hardly walk. It was as bail a case of female trouble as I have ever known. Lydia E. l'inkham'3 Vegetable Compound, however, cured me within four months.

Since that time I have bad occasion to recommend it to a number of patients suffering from all forins of female difficulties, and I Hud that while it is considered unprofessional to recommend a patent medicine, I ran honestly recommend Lydia E.
