HEW JERSEY WILL HOLD PRIMARY NOW Campaign of Both Parties in the "Skeeter" State Is Very Vigorous.
(National Newt Association) TRENTON. N. J., May 22. With the primary elections lees than a week away, when the voters of New Jersey will have a chance to express a presidential preference, the campaign is rapidly developing into one of the most vigorous political struggles the
state has witnessed In years. Colonel Roosevelt will begin a whirlwind tour of the state tomorrow. Later in the
week President Taft will be heard 'in a number of the principal cities. Senator La Follette also is planning to stump the state. Governor Wilson, on the Democratic side, will continue his speech-making until the night before the primaries, fighting for the solid support of his home state. Those who follow politics confess their inability to predict the outcome of either the Republican or the Democratic contest in New Jersey with any ! degree of certainty. In the Republican j ranks the Taft forces and the Roosevelt followers are flghtiog tooth and i nail every inch of the ground. New i Jersey is the last of the States having any considerable numerical representation in the national convention to elect 'delegates and as a consequence the two rival candidates entertain a keen ! anxiety to score a victory here. The organization forces are strong ifor the renominatlon of President Taft land have selected former Supreme Justice Gilbert Collins, former Governor Franklin Murphy, United States
Senator Frank O. Brlggs and F. Wayland Ayer, the Camden County leader, as the delegates at large to represent
;the state in the interest of President jTaft. t Prominent men also are to be found iin the Roosevelt camp. Among the i number are former Governor Fort, who would like to receive a cabinet berth in the event of Roosevelt's election; former Governor Stokes, who as- ! plres to the United States senatorship, former State Senator Everett Colby land Borden Whiting, president of the !New "Jersey Republican Progressive 1 League. The recent Roosevelt victories in
other states have naturally served to
increase the Roosevelt sentiment in
New Jersey and there is a feeling that
when the Colonel concludes his whirl
wind tour of the state he may carry
everything before him. On the other
.hand, there is a beJief that the speech
es to be made by President Taft dur
ing the next few days may turn the
fide in his favor in "spite of the Roosevelt campaigning. The finish of the
race will be given a touch of variety
;by the appearance of Senator LaFol
lette, though it is not thought that the candidacy of the Wisconsin senator
will figure to any great extent in the
results t)f the Taft-Roosevelt fight.
On the Democratic side there is not so much fireworks being set off,
mougn tne regular organization, which is battling against Governor Wilson, t is working hard in every section of
the state, The anti-Wilson men are
confident they will win more than half
the entire sate delegation of twentyeight, and may elect every man put up against the Wilson candidates.
chiefly because the organization of th
Wilson adherents is not anything like that of the experience politicians who , are making the -fight against the governor in his home state. The friends of Governor Wilson yet

cent primary elections in Massachusetts and Maryland. In several of the congressional districts ;the Roosevelt and LaFollette and anti-Taft forces have been supplemented by a third anti-Taft ticket, which will be labeled on the oCicial ballot as "Unpledged. The Roosevelt managers allege that these tickets of . "unpledged" candidates are a device of the Taft people to draw votes, away from the Roosevelt ticket. The result, as the politicians figure it, may be such a division of the anti-Taft vote among the three tickets as to give the Taft Ticket in these congressional districts an easy plurality. The presence of the name of Frank McDermott on the anti-Wilson. Democratic ticket as a candidate .for delegate at large is expected, too, to produce confusion that may cost the an-,ti-Wilson movement many votes. Mo Dermott's name on the ticket makes a group of five, while the electors are
to choose only four. The situation is precisely the same as that which is said to have invalidated 'thousands of Taft ballots in the Massachusetts pri
mary election several weeks ago.

It appears very probable that the results of the balloting in New Jersey next Tuesday will be as muddled as the situation developed by the re-
lc In Persia. ' . The fact that ice is plentiful and cheap makes living in Persia more pleasant than it would otherwise be. and the fact that it can be obtained at all is indicative of the ingenuity of the people of the country. The ground Is so porous that water percolates through quickly. There are therefore few rivers or lakes from which ice can be- obtained, and it is seldom so cold in any part of Persia that ice of a thickness suitable for packing would form under the direct rays of the sun. The Persian obtains his ice by making a shallow pool aud building a high wall which will protect it from the sun. A thin layer of ice will form. This he floods at night with water, and so he goes on adding inch to inch until he can cut a block of considerable thickness. Los Angeles Times.

WHO SUFFERS FROM RHEUMATISM Surely No Reader Of The Palladium When Leo H. Fine Sella RHEUM A For 50 Cents On Money-Back Plan. If you suffer from torturing rheumatic pains, swollen, twisted joints, and suffer intensely because your system is full of uric acid, that damnable poison that makes thousands helpless and kills thousands years bofore their time, then you need RHEUMA, and need it now. Start taking it today; in 24 hours it will begin to act on kidneys, liver, stomach and blood, and you can sincerely exclaim: "Good riddance to bad rubbish." Many people, the most skeptical of skeptics right In this city and in the
country hereabouts, bless , the day
when Leo H. Fihe with characteristic enterprise offered TcHEUMA to the afflicted at the low price of 50 cents a bottle. If you have rheumatism, get RHEUMA today.
Garfish Skin. A woman looking over costly jewel cases in one of the most expensive of the uptown shops the other day was struck with the beautiful, ivory-like finish of a number of them. "What arc they raade of?" she asked admiringly. "Garflsh skin, madam." answered the salesman. "Garfish leather, we find, is very little known about outside of the trade, and yet it has come to be of importance. It not only can be worked up to the polish, but it Is wonderfully hard. They say certain tribes of Indians knew its serret and that among them it was used as armor, the tradition being that a breastplate of it would resist any tomahawk on arrow. It can be made now so that It will turn the edge of a knife or a pear." New York Sun.
