Innovation. '
Special to The Journal.
Dei Koines, lowa, Dec. 18. —Indications
are favorable for the introduction of the
voting machine into Dcs Moines and Polk
county. The experiment made by the
capita] city will be watched and if it it=
successful there is no doubt iheir general
introduction will follow throughout lowa.
At a meeting Thursday, the Polk county
board of supervisors will settle the ques
iion so far as n relates to the county.
Some time ago. the board appointed a
committee of three to confer with the
city authorities. As the result of this
conference, the committee of the super
visors will recommend to the full board
the use of voting machines in the county,
the purchase of machines sufficient to
answer the needs of each precinct in the,
city ami county and an^agreement with
ihe city council for an equitable division
of the expense between city and county.
The only obstacle in the way of adop
tion lies in the possible failure of the
supervisors and the city council to come
to terms as to a division of the expense.
There ate twenty-nine precincts in the
city aud twenty-two precincts in the
county outside of the city. The super
visors want the city to pay for the ma
chines in the city precincts, leaving them
to stand the cost of the machines for the
rural precincts. This the council will
not countenance and Jnsist on the county
bearing half the cost of the machines used
in the city precincts. The supervisors also
want the city to make the start and buy
the firs: machines, as the city will have
'he first election, the municipal elec
i ion the coming spring. However, there
is reason to believe these differences will
be compromised, as the wisdom of using
machint-s to facilitate voting and counting
is generally conceded by both the city and
county politicians.
In a legal way there are no obstacles to
adopting the machines, the twenty-eighth
general assembly two years ago having
adopted a measure authorizing their use.
County Auditor Fred A. Cope has cal
culated that one machine will suffice for
each precinct and that the machines will
pay for themselves in ten years. A sav
ing of $1,200 a year in election expenses
would result, according to Mr. Cope.
Persons interested in voting machines
of different types are on the ground and
are watching the outcome closely. The
law provides for a voting machine com
mission, to examine into the efficiency of
any machine proposed for adoption. As
yet but one machine has been examined
ami reported on favorably. However, sev
eral others will be submitted for examina
tion, as soon as their proprietors are con
\ inced the supervisors will act favorably.

|^/G GENZ. 6£o. W. COOK. 1 1
Brigadier General George W. Cook, Washington, D. C, writes:
"As a number of my friend* have used Peruna for catarrh, with
such good results, I can safely recommend it to all sufferers of like
disorders." BRIGADIER GENERAL GEORGE W. COOK.
DR. HSRTMAN SAYS
Catarrh is the Scourge of the Nine
teenth Ganfury.
Have you catarrh? Maybe you have
not; but do you know that a person may
have catarrh of the head, catarrh of the
throat, catarrh of the lungs, catarrh of
the stomach, catarrh of the bowels, ca
tarrh of the kidneys, catarrh of the blad
der, and also the others pelvic organs?
Are any of these organs affected in your
case ?
If so, the probability is that you have
chronic catarrh. 3o many people think
that catarrh is confined to the head.
This is not true. Catarrh may affect
any organ of the body. Thousands of
people who have been sick a long time
have catarrh, but do not know It. They
have doctored for every imaginable dis
ease but catarrh, and fiud no cure.
FOOD ADULTERATIONS
Xote of Warning From tlie'S. IJ. Com
inJHHiuner'H Oilit-e In lie Smet.
Special to The Journal.
lie Smet, S. D.. Dec )b. -From recent
analyses which the food and d airy depart
ment has made of dirt'eivnt food products,
it is evident thai al arge per cent of the
articled sold by local merchants is adul
berated to a greater or less degree.
Three samples of strained honey which
were being sold for the pure article were
found, on examination, to be composed al
most wholly of glucose, or corn syrup.
With a little favoring to fool the public,
these goods can be sold at much higher
prices than they could be as glucose. The
same is also true of sorghum.
There sems to be but one way for the
local merchant to protect himself in the
purchase of any article of food, and that
is to Insist upon a written guarantee of
purity being given him with each class of
goods by the wholesaler. Upon receipt
of the articles he should send a sample to
the state food and dairy department to be
analyzed before paying for them; If they
prove to be adulterated, he is then at lib
erty to return the goode.
The local merchant need not expect to
escape prosecution if he continues to pur
chase adulterated articles indiscriminate
ly and dispose of them as genuine. If he
purchases with a written guarantee he
will at least show good faith and may save
himself trouble if the goods should prove
to be adulterated.
NOLAN BRINGS CONTEST
Dubuqne Democratic Senator Dissat
isfied With Verdict of the Polls.
Special to The Journal.
Dcs Moines, lowa, Dec. 18. —Thomas F.
Xolan, the present democratic senator
from the Dubuque district, who was a
candidate for re-election In November and
was defeated by Colonel P. W. Crawford,
has served a notice of contest. This will
result in two contests being heard by the
senate, the other being brought by James
E. Bruce of Anita against Dr. J. M. Em
mcrt, the democratic senator of the Cass-
Shelby district.
The action of Senator Nolan is a gen
eral surprise. Many of his democratic
friends In his district are urging him to
desist, as they are convinced it will be
useless. Crawford's plurality was 28.
Nolan assigns seven different reasons for
his action, relating to miscounts, prema
ture closing of polls, and other proceed
ings not in harmony with law.

They have never thought that what they
had been calling dyspepsia, or liver com

FLOUR TRADE RULES
Impure Pennsylvania Product the
Thing- Aimed At.
Special to The Journal.
New York, Dec. 18.—Eighty dealers of
the flour trade met at the Produce Ex
change yesterday and adopted, by a two
thirds vote, motions that flour lacking any
of.its constituent parts so that its baking
I qualities are seriously Impaired shall not
be entitled to certificate of grade, and that
flour having any injurious foreign smell
other than that of garlic, shall be graded
unsound. The adoption of these measures
does not imply a raising of inspection
standards, tor the motive was solely the
ruling out of impure Pennsylvania flour.
Much of the Pennsylvania product is un
sound this year because of the wet condi
tion of the wheat from which it was made.

Rome, Dec. 18. —The partizana of Signor
Ferri, who was expelled from the chamber
of deputies Monday for refusing to with
draw insults he had leveled against the
southern provinces, tried yesterday to ob
tain an annullment of his expulsion. The
discussion ended in the rejection of the
proposal. The chamber was shortly after
ward startled by a crash of glass, and as
the members turned they saw Ferri's head
sticking through a hole in a glass door,
through which he had smashed his fist.
Ferri was excitedly waving a paper and
shouting: "Down with the parliamenary
camorra!" This comparison of the cham
ber of deputies with a criminal society of
Naples resulted in an uproar of mingled

within certain portals. When this same
news reached the Metropolitan club the
