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.
Quito naturally tlio public mind IIIIH
boon dlrootod toward thoHO mon who
were candidates boforu tlio convon-
tlon which iilacod Mr. MluUoy In noni
InaUon , Monsrs. .1. 1) ) , Dlnnnioro of
Button , , T. 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.

TAKES ISSUE WITH MR. PERRY
When Farmers Harvest Their Stalks
ns Other Crops the Disease Will no
Longer Worry The Process of Di
gestion In Cattle ,
Norfolk , Fob. 11. 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

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 ,
