The anti-monopolist. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1874-1878, 1877-04-26

VIM. M. Tweed in his desperate ef-
forts to secure his liberty has prepared con-
fession covering fifty pages OF manuscript and
his counsel, Mr. Townsend, has taken it 10
Albany and laid it before the Attorney g. n
eral he says that IN return tor the favor OF
liberty and rest, he viii yield up all his prop
erty and he faithful witness in behalf OF the
people. He says he has suffered much and
has suffered long in silence and has borne the
burden OF what others should have shared.
Afflicted with disease, feeble from age and
confinement, and ill IT ease in mind, he
seeks for the rest and relief he s. much and
so s,rely needs. The proposition il . long
and exhaustive document and assumes tine
nature Of . confess Oh which goes hack as Tar
rs 1867, when the ring first began To assume
farm. It gives in detail the story OF various
conferences between the writer, Peter b.
Sweeney, Richard Connolly, Henry G~net,
A. Oakley Hall and others, by which Tweed
was elected to the State Senate, Connolly
controller in 1867, and Hall mayor, Jan. l.,
1860
Tweed, according t. the story, transferred
to State Senator Winslow in prrson s2OO, OOu
| to secure the charter Of 1870, which gave T.,
the Ring control of the city, the support 81
| several influential republican memb-rs u the
| Legislature 1t was Twerd's UNDERSTANDING

furnlSnod aC lou degrees, but the facts
in the case were that we did not re-
ceivegood oil under the $50 degree test
law Of 1855.
That fact the oil consumers all over
the State can testify to. Further, we
asked for law to protect the people
from the imposition of adulterated
oils, but were opposed by the high test
fraternity and the only way left open
was to reach competition by adopting
test usual in other States. This the
Legislature has done. It has resulted
in checking the operations of interest
ed parties, and has given us compe-
titi0n in trade and reasonable prices
in oil.
Who is it that complains It is not
the people of the State who use it.
If the present law is executed we
can once more enjoy the light Of good
and safe oil at living prices.
Let the dealers of the State encour-
age competition by giving to more
than one or two oil companies a share
of the Oil trade Of Minnesota. Let the
State Inspector give the cause that
leads to every explosion, and when
ever the cause exists in the oil let him
give the name of the manufacturer Of
the oil and from what dealer received,
and we will soon have peace on the oil
subject, and the dark corners Of Min
nesota will rejoice in the glowing
lamp.light Of pure and safe kerosene
oil.
Professor Rhodes states that he has
often unscrewed the top and taken out
the wick of a lamp that was filed with
high test oil, that had been burning
for hours and had introduced a
lighted match without any fash or ex-
plOsion.
That is very natural to suppose, and
the same can be safely done with ITO
degree oil. In taxing out the wick and
top of the lamp you allow the air and
vapol to escape and afford ventilation,
occur under those circumstances. The
oil might occasionally be set on fire in
this way, but it would be difficult to
produce an explosion in high or low
test oil as above described.
The professor has, however, given
some very good suggestions that should
be followed.
Also, Mr.. n. W. Cary, in his article
of April 1st, gave some valuable ad.
vice. 1t would be well to cut this ar
ticle out, and post it up where it could
be referred to often. I will here add
the following:
Never use flat lamps in which the
fame is too near the body of the lamp.
Use long burner which brings the
flame to a distance of three inches or
more from the body of the lamp.
The form of the brass student 8
lamp is very safe one, as in this the
oil reservoir is at long distance
from the flame. The nearer full of
oil you keep your lamp tie better.
Use no burner destitute of proper
ventilating tubes. This very impor-
tant item. Perhaps the greater num-
Der Of explosions that t.ke place can
be charged to burners with no venti-
lation. Many of the lamps now in use
are without them, and should be dis
carded at once. Never turn the wick
low in your lamp and leave it burning
all night. Always extinguish it be-
sides being dangerous, there is the nui-
sance of an unpleasant and unwhol+.
some odor given off, caused by imper.
feet combustion and the constant evO'
luton Of injul ions gases.
Briefly yours, j. N. STACY.

FAREWELL.

4 hEi w ELL.
Summer is fading; the broad leaves that grew
80 freshly green when June was young are fail
ing; =
And all the whisper-haunted forest through
lhe restless birds in saddened tones are calling
From rustllng hazel copse and tangled dell.
Farewell, sweet summer,
Fragrant, fuity summer,
Sweet FAREWELL"
Upon the windy hill, in many field,
The honcy-bees hum slow above the clover
oleanlng the latest sweets its bloom may yield;
And, knowing that their harvest-time is over
Sing hall lullaby and half a knell,
Farewell, sweet summer,
Honey-laden summer,
sweet FAREWELL"
The little brook that babbles mid the ferns.
Ger twisted roots and sandy shadows playing
Seem fain to linger in its eddied turns, s.
Ana win plalntive, purring voice is saying
Sadder and s@eeter than my song can tell, 2
Farewell, sweet summer sst
Warm and dreamy summer,
Sweet FAREWELL"
The ftful breeze sweeps down the winding lane
With gold and crimson leaves before it flying
Its gusty laughter has no sign of pain, rW
But in the lulls ii sinks to gentle signing al.F
And mourns the summers early broken spell
Farewell, sweet summer,
Rosy, blooming summer,
Sweet FAREWELL
So bird, and bee, and brook, and breeze make
moan,
With melancholy song their loss complaining
/, too, must join them as walk alone
Among the sights and sounds of summers wan
|, too, have loved the season passing we'll
SO, farewell summer,
Fair but faded summer,
Sweet farewell!
