Electromagnetic theory without Relativity

Abstract
--------
We consider point magnetic charges as the sources of the magnetostatic
fields, like the point electric charges for the electrostatic fields.
Why? Milliken demonstrated the quantization of charge
in some old oil drop expeiment, but there is no evidence
for "magnetostatic charge", on the contrary it's a misnomer
since magnetic effects are *observed* to occur in relativistic
circumstances.
As a concept (as you write about) it might be a good
theoretical tool, but your article doesn't look simpler than
the classical stuff, Maxwell +SR.
Do you predict anything new, or simplify how things work?
It has been shown in the article that Relativity has nothing to do with
the electromagnetic theory.
