May 27.?Some e:: ceedin'irly plain tall: is said to havehecn ititiuti-ed In this mortvlns by th? ;a.v. :Frdsident diirinc; a visit of Senator John ICenri, of New Jersey, who is reInfoft -'t/i r R r-.n sr-vel r to The White |'Hi-e senior Senator from that State is usyvaUy- mild-mannered, arv.i was in characteristic good hiimoi when he-arrived at the executive offices this meriting and took , his seat beside Senator Shelby M. Ciiiloin Senator Refffield Proctor and Repre PPfiSsentni i vc .'George IX I'oss, who w waiting pending the termination of the. conference between Mr. Hoo.s-.rKEg?r.-.Velt and the Secretary of War. After Senator Kcnn had seen the President he left tlio White House in a different mood. His face was flushed and he declined to rarg about the >V: matter of Mr. Cortelyou's selection as National Chairman, or on any other political subject. Shortly after the tentative selection of Mr. Cortelyou was announced Senator Heart came out in an interview in a New Jersey paper, criticizing the President's choice. He declared his intention to express himself to the f. ; same effect when he next saw the , President. It is said that as soon as Senator Kean intimated that he did not like the selection of Mr. Cortelyou the President opened fire and corn mented sarcastically upon all who had .been, interposing objections to every prominent member of the party whose : :f. . name had been mentioned in conned tion with the Republican chairmand.; ship. ?!>> Hard to Suit All. ;; urirrrav flrane's name was riot satisfactory to some members of the party. The President turned tvitli favor toward ex-Secretary Cornelius j ' N. Bliss, of New York, and found that ;f. Senator Piatt and Governor Odell jfjlpy. could not agree upon that selection. The name of Governor Murphy, of New Jersey was then considered, an.! this developed the fact that while Senator Dryden, of New Jersey, favored ''him, the senior Senator of tire ?? * State, Mr. Kean, and his followers bit ' - terly opposed the choice of Mr. Mr.rThe President learned that SenKean's objections to Governor MurpBy were probably due to the fact . that . Mr. Kean feared Governor liur . phy would loom up so large with the SBfoa; prestige of having managed a campaign that he^wouhl become a logical candidate to succeed Senator Kean. f:; whose term will expire next r.Iarch. :.N . So far as can be learned President Rooseveit to-day indicated that he was driven to a selection of his own. an.-: decided upon. Secretary Cortelyou us a man with whom ho was perfect 1 y familiar, and who, besides- having all the qualities necessary for campaign '&ia.irman,- was such a man as ,could not be criticised by those, who had objectod to other members of the par- ,. r" on petty grounds. Interested In State Fights, itrg - Republican factional disturbances : occupied much of the attention of the ;;b * President to-day. While he is not halting a hand in any of the State yV fights, he is perhaps, manifesting a .g. , deeper interest in the outcome of the splits in Wisconsin, Illinois and Ohio than any other member of his party, because their result may have an im; - - portant hearing upon the national campaign What disturbs the President more than any/ other thing is that the most'serious disaffection in his own . party is occurring in States which will be in the great battleground of the : campaign?Illinois, Wisconsin, etc. During the forenoon Mr. Roosevelt talked with Senator Cttilom and Representative Koss respecting the Gubernatorial deadlock in Illinois. Senator Cullom went over the situation in detail and informed the President ' that there has been no change what*' prcr to. the situation since the conven tion adjourned to reassemble on May 31. Senator Cullom said all the canip^ didates and. their followers had suc'ceeded in maintaining their lines, and . that each man was confident of success. Says Bitterness Was Absent. He said the most notable feature of the convention was the absence of bitterness between the candidates m.d 'their respective followers, and at*':y-y tributed this to the high intellectual r;i-.qualities of the delegates and the p| men they are supporting. This new.-? was received joyfully by the Presi; ; dent, who has been entertaining grave 5',;,.' fears tbat the fight -would leave deep ^te;.%t0roands which might not be healed in "^wvv'-ti.me to aid the party in the November Senator Cullom said in gjjk. this connection he could not assure Bg&^the President the contest would be Hjgfcate-'.'.in the " afternoon the Presij . \\eonferred with Senator Spooner 18&n[ng' the situation in Wisconsin. ^Vcrence continued some time. stated, though, that the President will not interfere In any of tliese State disruptions further than to urge ail members of the party to pursue a con- j dilatory course In the interest of the j national parry as far as possible. Worried About Wisconsin. President Roosevelt is understood i to be particularly solicitous about i Wisconsin, where the condition of the ! Republican party Is in strong contrast j with that of the-Democrats, who are j returning to their former, status in ! the second Cleveland campaign; when ; ex-Senator Vilas .swung the electoral j votes oi* the State into line for the j Democratic candidate. Senators Aldrich and Proctor also j ; called upon the President to-day. Sen- j [ a tor Aldrich made a flying trip o ; j the city, arriving in the morning and I leaving for the' Xorth on the after| noon train.- Before going he had a t long conference at the Arlington Hotel i witii Commissioner of Labor Carroll j D. Wright. Senators Aldrich and ! Spooner also saw Postmaster-General j Payne, vice-chairman of the Republican committee, at the Arlington. Literature For Democrats. Senator Culberson, of Texas, was j at the headquarters of the Democrat ic Congressional Committee for some time to-dav discussing the subject of campaign literature with Chairman Cowherd. The committee is sending ! our 2,0.00 letters to chairmen of the (Democratic committee, asking Cor the | names of young men who are going to take the stump in the campaign. When these names are received the committee will communicate with ! each of the speakers, supplying them j with literature dealing with the isI sues of the campaign. The committee will try in this manner to focus campaign oratory throughout the country upon I lie few really viral issues of the j campaign. It is not believed an nc.j live effective campaign can bo coni ducted unless all members of the i party work in harmony, emphasizing ; the paramount issues of the year ami I ignoring collateral subjects of minor character. "Unless Democrats work together ' toward a common goal the campaign | will lie about as effective," said Secretary Charles A. Edwards to-day, ; "as a mule kicking at yellow jackets." ; ? | Feed the Land and It Will Feed Yoi?. The importance of having the greatf est possible quantity of manure is | generally understood by farmers, even | when they fail to give proper attenj tion to the matter. Every crop taken | from the land, every pound of meat j sold from the farm, represents an asj certainecl amount of fertility with! drawn, and none will deny that we can ! not continue to draw from the soil i without making returns any more \ than we can draw on tlie bank. witlioutr 'l making deposits. The best blooded ! cow over stabled could nor furnish ! rich milk on a diet of straw. | Now, the bank that never fails and i cannot be broken in nature, .and if we j make the necessary deposits of feri tilizing matter into the soil we can be | sure of getting back the principal with I good interest. A good crop of wheat? j say twenty-five bushels?has taken out of the soil in the form of straw | about 10 pounds of nitrogen, 23.2 j pounds potash and 10 pounds of phos; phoric acid: in the form of grain, 27 j pounds nitrogen, 8.1 pounds potash j and 12 pounds phosphoric acid, making a total drain of 13 pounds nitrogen, ! 31.3 pounds potash and 22.4 pounds phosphoric acid. It. will take three ! tons of good unbleached barnyard ma: nure to restore those elements to the | soil. Our richest soils cannot enclure j such drains for many years without j showing it. Our uplands have to a great extent been so impoverished, j that it will cost the value of the land i to restore them to their original vigor, and our wonderful bottoms, although frequently enriched by floods and clover do not yield as heavy as | when they were new. When farmers I pay as much attention to raising the i highest quality it will be compara! tively easy matter to raise premium i crops. Feed your land and it will feed j you.?Agricultural Epitomist.

Inffenlons Device !>y Which the Long ' ToIicm Are CJenncd. * The long pipes that carvy crude pe- 1 troleum from the oi] wells to the re- f fineries many miles distant are cleaned by an ingenious device. A writer > in the Omaha Daily Bee describes it: ' As the oil flows through these underground conduits some of the par- ' nifin in the fluid inerasts the sides of the pipes and proves a serious hindrance to the free passage of the current of oil. ' The device that is used to remedy : this evil is a knife about two feet in length, with a sharp edge, constructed like the thread of a screw; indeed, the knife resembles a huge headless screw. t It is. of course, slightly smaller than the pipe through which it is to pass. ' When the thickness of the crust of 1 paraffin renders a c-Ieansing necessary < this instrument Is inserted in the pipe i at the oil tie Ids.' The pressure of the stream of oil drives it forward, revolving rapidly as it hurries along and scraping the channel clean. It turns and twists and cleanses in this manner throughout its whole journey and finally drops from the pipe in the midst of the vast, stream of petroleum that empties into the receiving tanks. Its edges are duller than when it sot out on its journey, but otherwise it is in perfect condition. It is at once shipped back to the oil v.*oils, where it is sharpened and laid away until its services are again | needed. 31 czrla Train's I.tsclc.
