ResumoDirac's magnetic monopoles are generalized to have aspects which are similar to the conventional quarks (electric quarks). Such magnetic monopoles are called magnetic quarks. This work assumes that a baryon consists of three solid bodies called electromagnetic quarks, and that an electromagnetic quark and an electromagnetic antiquark form a meson. Each of these electromagnetic quarks is considered to be composed of one electric quark and one magnetic antiquark. Such a speculation solves the difficulty in statistics faced by the paraquark model and allows the existence of anomalous charge conjugation parity $C$ of mesonic states. New baryon mass relations and magnetic moments have been derived. Finally, a strong electric dipole moment is predicted to exist in a baryon state with nonzero electromagnetic-quark orbital angular momentum, $L\ensuremath{\ne}0$.
