THE NORFOLK NEWS : FRIDAY , FICimUARY 12 , 1004. W , M. Robertson Not Decided on Governorship. WILL TAKE TIME TO CONSIDER Hns Not Been n Candidate Against Mickey and Thought Ho Would bo Nominated Dlnsmoro's Candidacy Changes Conditions Materially. For n long I line thoru have boon miittorlngH among tlio republicans against ttio ronotnlnntlon of Clovornor Mickey , based iiiion thu fuel that bin administration IIIIH not boon consid ered ( inlto up to tlio Htnndnrd desired by thu imrly ( hut nominated and elect ed him , and ninny buvu boon costing about to HOO who would niako un avail- nblo candldnto to take bin place.

P. A Ulaclc of Uloomlngton and W. M , Hobortson of Norfolk. Two yearn ngo Mr. Robertson wan nnnnoBtloimhly tlio loading ait well IIH moat popular oandldato before tl'o convention , and If ho had Btald In Mm race ho would have boon noinlimtod , In face of tlio fart that many of the delegates were pledged to other can didates. A great many of the re-pro- Hontatlvos mot him on the day of the con vontlon for the first tlmo and I hey were much ( niton with bin ntrong abil ity and domocratlc disposition. Slnco than not ono but many of those RIIIIIO delegates have expressed Hlncoro regret - grot that tboy did not break away when It was tlmo and cast tholr votes for Hobortson. The convention IH yet tbroo moathn uway , but the annonnconiont yesterday - day of J. 11. lllnsmoro aa a candidate for gubernatorial honors , opens the campaign and from this tlmo on It may bo fairly Bald that Mr. Mlclcoy will have rather n rocky road. During the past few months. Mr. llobortson lias tallied with the writer a number of times concerning the disposition In many quarters that ho bocoino a candidate for governor before the coming republican convention , and ho lias repeatedly Htatod that ho did not expect to stand In Mr. Mickey's way for rononiltintlon , that the prece.lont sot by the party would ontltlo him to n second term In the olllco If his ad ministration gave satisfaction , ami ho baa frequently said that ho bollovod Mr , Mlokoy would bo ronomlnated. The statement by a number of pa pers yesterday In connection with the announcement of Mr. Dlnsmoro , that Mr. Hobortsou would announce him self In a short tlmo , load a roportei to hunt up Mr. Hobortson last oven- Ing. Ho was found comfortably smoking a cigar and reading an even ing paper In the Klks club rooms. Ho had just seen Mr. Dlnsmoro's an nouncement , and was apparently somewhat prepared for the question which was propounded to him : "Mr. Itohorlsnn , Mr. ninsmoro has announced himself as a candidate foi governor and It is said that you are likely to bo a candidate. The News would llko to know what you have to say to the proposition. " "Woll , " replied Mr. Hobortson. "I have always felt that an otllelal who lias served the state acceptably for ono term would under ordinary cir cumstances be entitled to a renomln- atlon. If , however , the majority of Ills party is dissatisfied with him. I suppose It Is their privilege to noinln ate some one who is satisfactory to them. I have not up to this tlmo been n candidate for governor against Mr Mickey , since the tlmo ho was noni Inated by the republican state convou tlon. With the changed conditions precipitated by the announcement o ; Mr. Dlnsmoro's candidacy , however I fool llko consulting my friends before fore determining what I will do. " Mr. Hobortson went to Lincoln this nfternoon , where ho will address the Young Men's Kopnbllcan club at tholr annual banquet this evening. THURSDAY TIDINGS. J. H.

In u recent IHBIIO f your paper I road un article by Mr. . H. i'orry of Klgln on tlio old sub- oct of the mi-called corn Hliillt ills * nno , In which ho bollovofl the cauno f death to ho duo to "luck of nutrl- lout In the HtiilkH. " I would like to ay a few wordH In reply. In miiny HHOH of corn stalk disease that I have ud experience with , the trouble haH ccurred early In the fall before the talkH have been "front bitten and un bleached HO many Union that they ro worthless , " and I have boon in ordH whore they have boon dying , Vhoro the cattle have had Krnln food , orn , or corn and oatH , before going ut In the HtnlliH. Then ho says the Hlomach of the ow or ruminant haH two partH and 10 foIdH in the Hocond stomach are lie Hiiino IIH the foldR In the first stom- oh , which Is wrong. The Htomach f the ruminant IH very complex and mdo up of four compartmontH. First , H the rumen or paunch ; 2nd , Is the etlcnliim or honoy-comb , nnd Is the mallcHt of the four compartments ; rd , IH the omiisum-pHaltorium or minypllcH ; < lth , IH the aboniiisnin , or rue digestive Htomach. The llrnt three compartments have Ittlo to do with the essential process ) f dlgentlon , being principally con- orned In macerating and preparing > f the food , and are analogous to the ciitlcnlar portion of the Htomach of ho horne , they Hlmply Hocreto a mu cus lluid ( o Hofton and lubricate the food , which docs not moot with true gastric ( Inld until It rcaclion tlio fourth Htomach , or aboniaHiim , the true ill- gor.tlvo stomach. The fourth compartment resembles ho vlllous portion of the ntoin- ich of the horse which contains the colunnar epithelium , some of which Hocroto Ilia gastric or true dl ; gostlvo llulil , which is not found In my of the llrst three compartments HO Is not the .same IIH that found in the tlrat Htomach , and then the folds > f the rumen encircle the compartment mont while those of the aboniasum nro thrown in oblln.no folds crossing from end to end In a spiral direction Now ho says "there Is no danger o clog" in the rumen , why .is it , then wo often get what is known as inipac tlon of the rumen , and In some cases It Is necessary to perform an opera tlon known as riimcnotomy and nnloa < the rumen or paunch by hand througl the sldo of the animal. I have never found the fourth 01 true digestive stomach clogged In anj cases I have seen. If there Is an > clog or stoppage In those cases it wll lie in the third stomach , the omasiin or manyplles by some called "dry murrain" and thought to bo the cause of death by many because found dr > and hard but the truth is that the natural state of this stomach Is a dr > and hard condition , and so It is not i morbid condition. Tlio process of digestion in the ru mlnant Is about thus : Tlio food having been masticate ! and swallowed , falls Into the firs compartment , whore It Is tossed nbou by muscular action and saturated will lluld , a portion Is thrown np throngl tlio valvular opening into the retlcula or second stomach , and gains a fnrthe supply of mucus lluld , ( the sccom stomach or honey-comb consists of little tlo cup-like depressions which catcl and hold the water or lluld portions of food and also secrete n mucils lluid ) and the liner are separated fron the coarser particles , the former pro cecd to the psaltorlum or third stomach ach , the latter by the muscular con traction of the second stomach , the relaxation of the oesopliageal pillars and nnti-peristallc action of the oe- sophagcal walls is returned to the month to bo ro-masticatcd and once more swallowed. A portion now pass es into the rumen , the romalnde down the oesopliageal canal to the third stomach or manypllos , whence liquids How onward to the abomasun or fourth stomach , while solids are drawn between the loaves of the manyplles in the third stomach to bo further prepared. It has been proven that the smu on the corn does not kill the cattle Cases are , also recorded whore tlw cattle had plenty of salt and wato and yet th.ey died , and I have hoard o cases dying whore they had grali and n running stream through the Hold. Last fall I was called to see a herd that was fed in the food yards In the forenoon ad then turned out In the afternoon. This was done for two or three days and the man lost ani mals each afternoon or evening. I would llko to know If Mr. Perry lost any cattle In his field before con ducting his experiment. All Holds do not kill. One neighbor may lose his cattle and across the road they will not bo dying , and some men turn their cattle right out and let them go and never lose any , so I don't think the lack of nutriment theory will always hold good. . Why can wo take these same stalks that kill cattle , while standing in the Uneeda Biscuit Gadzook s no jest to make man NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY field , cut them and feed them , and all the cattle will eat with Impunity ? At times a honl may rdn some days or weeks In a field before they begin to die , and then they may bo removed for awhile and then returned and be safe. Horses will die with nearly the same symptoms from running In the stalks , yet the stomach will not bo found dry and bard , but the contents will bo soft , while the stomach will bo congested the same as wo find the fourth or true stomach In ruminants. I may bo wrong , but I think the trouble Is duo to a certain stage In the curing of the stalk while standIng - Ing , probably the pith becoming poi sonous at that certain time. I would always feed grain mid hay and see that the cattle drink before they go out , but I don't believe it will always prevent their dying. The natural food milk that Mr. Perry's 2-ycar-olds got , may have fur nished the antidote for the poison. I would llko to see the experiment tried of feeding milk and then turning them Into a field that has been killing the cattle. The only sure , safe way to feed the stalks is to harvest them , and in tlmo It will bo done and then the so- called corn stalk disease will cease to worry us. Hespectfully , C. A. McKIm , M. D. C.
