A
Eopublicans Meet in Convention
at Saratoga.
MORTON'S NOMINATION PROBABLE.
rrnncli Hendricks Likely to Win the Con
teit for 8ecund I'lace Sixth Annual
Convention of the Young Meu'l Lenuun,
of Nw York.
SArtATOOA, N. Y., Sept. IS. The He
nubllcnn state convention convened here
this mornlug, anil unless the hard work
being done by candldntes lms a very great
effect on the situation the Republican
state ticket will read like this: For gov
ernor, Levi P. Morton; lor lieutenant gov
ernor, Francis Hendricks for Judge of the
court of appeals. Albert S. Knight.
As to Mr. Morton's chances the sentiment
seems not n bit changed by the active
strife for llcutvnnnt Governor, and Mr.
Piatt, who Is himself manager for the
Morton boom, Is perfectly confident and
smiling.
He said this morning: "The arrival of
mnuy delegations this morning has only
(.erved to strengthen the cause of Mr.
Morton. Many of the leaders of delega
tions not Instructed for Mr. Morton have
assured mo of their support." Asked If
he had anv preference of lieutenant gov-
ernor. he said: "I have tiono, nnd I will
not Interfere with It In nny way."
Tliera is not much Jubilation In Mr.
Fnssett's auarters, although ho is still a
candidate for governor and will be placed
in nomination before the convention
Messrs. Woodford, Dutterfleld and Rus
sell are still In the fray, and sny they In
tend to stay Until a nomination is made,
Things have takenja very different turn
for those Interested In the candidacy of
the various men for lieutenant gevernor.
Francis Hendricks, of Syracuse, has an
nounced that he Is a candidate for the
office. It Is almost certain at this tlnio
that Hendricks will be the nominee for
lieutenant governor. It Is said the booms
for Senators Veddars and Coggeshall were
simply run to keep Mr. Saxton from re
celvlng too many votes.
For Lieuteuaut governor, Senator Cog-
cembali says he has Oneida with 10, Ot
sego, 6; Schohorle, 7; Madison, 0, nnd pnrt
of Cortland, some from Kings aud some
from New York: in nil about fifty-four
otes. Two new candidates for lieuten
ant governor were announced, Gorton W
Allen, of (Jayuga, and senator Liogge-
shnll,
The Republican stnte committee met
last evening nnd transacted very little
business excepting the naming of n tem
porary chairman. For this position Mr.
Uellamy, of few lork, nominated the
Hon. Lemuel L. tluigg, of Aew York,
He was unanimously named.
The Mllhollund faction of New xork
without making any comments, filed
with the clerk of the committee a notice
of a contest of nil the New York olty dis
tricts. The Mllhollnnd contest was es
tablished by a unanimous vote, nnd so
disposed of finally.
The choice for permnnent chairman of
the convention lies between r-euntor nr-
ncr Miller nnd Genernl Uenjnmln
Trncey. It it also believed that If Mr.
Miller is selected ns chairman General
Tracey will present the name of Mr. Mor
ton to the convention, Mr. Depew having
had to decline the houor. It is further
said that William Sullivan, of Roohester,
will bo chairman of the committeo on
credentials, and Congressman Paine will
be chairman of the committee on resolu
Hons.

of the candidates for nominations in tho
Republlcnn convention developed when
A. G. Vamcalck, chalrmno of the stato

association arrived here.

A Natural Food Tint Doss Not
Require Digestion.
THE W"AY IT IS DONE.
How Mixing: With Fruit Adds Digests
Food Before it Is Even Taken
Into the Mouth.
Xntural foods nre ns n rule lusoluabfcsi
They must be dissolved belore they can
be absorbed.
Digestion Is tho dissolving of food In
our month, stomach nnd Intestines. It is
done by special ferments prepared by
special organs.
A great deal of energy Is used up In
digestion. 'Well people can spare the
energy, sick people ennuot. People who
have not sufficient energy suffer from In
digestion.
It is plain that Paskola, which la an
nrtlQcally digested food, will save a sick
person n great denl of energy.
tVrttnctal digestion is the dissolving of
food outside the body by the same fer
ments thnt dissolve It inside the body.
Paskola Is a fattening food made of
grains nnd fruit thnt has been digested
in this way. It also aids In the digestion
of other food.
Sick people need nil their energy to get
well. They should take Paskoln. Thin
people spend their energy In business or
other cares and worry. Pnskoln will
make them fat without giving their
digestive organs nny work.
Paskoln is an ideal natural fattening
food. It is more. It is a natural tonic
food that does not crente fnlse new
energy hut helps you to husband what
you have.
Any one who reads the thankful words
which follow will be convinced of the
surpassing worth of this great nrtlQcally
digested food :
