PETROLEUM IN RUSSIA.

In Russia petroleum is coming more and
more into use. The railway between
Tiflis and Baku Is mainly employed in it's
transportation by the continuous route TO
BstOum. Baku is entirely devoted to pc
trolsum AID its products. In Baku the
crude oil is used TO sprinkle the streets, and
it is found to be more effective than water
in laying the terrible dust that exists there.
Most of the machinery used at the wells Is
of American manufacture, and American
skill is largely employed in its operation.
Recently the Government consented to
the construction of pipe line from Baku
to Batoum, the distance being no less than
$50 miles. But the newest interest in the
petroleum industry IS in the use of the
article for fuel. The illuminating power is
one-third less than that Of American oil,
but it is so much cheaper that it threatens
to drive out American oil wherever cheap
ness is preferred TO safety and cleanliness,
for the Russian oil is very explosive, emits
much smoke and disagreeable odor. But
the residuum OF the oil is greater than that
of American Gil, and it Is converted into
benzine, gasoline, ozoceriter aniline, etc,
and it IS also used for fuel. In this coun.
try we have long been experimenting in
Ike direction, but with very limited
success. Ia Russia 1t is now used
with a steam jet in locomotives, sea
steamers and for the torpedo boats
Of the Russian navy. Three kinds
of apparatus are used, and all
with satisfaction. Wood is very scarce,
and coal very dear, and hence petroleum
comes TO Russia as a liquid fuel as Cod
send. 1t would seem that the example of
Russia should stimulate our own people in
endeavora to utilize for fuel an article with
which this country is so well supplied. OF
course the necessity has not been pressing
here as in Russia, and there has not there
fore been the stimulus to experiment or IN
vention that las operated there. Consul
Paul, of Odessa, says regarding the use of
the liquid fuel in locomotives: 1.-The fire
in the boiler is started with coarse, heavy
grass or wood, if near to Tlh,s or Baku,
until a pressure of about i've pounds is
obtained, or sufficient to work the steam.
Jet the oil is then lighted, fat jst OF
steam rushes out and carries the oil-jet to
the end OF the furnace, producing a strong,
hot flame, which is easily regulated by the
flow OF the oil, which is fed in very slowly,
only small quantity being required, and
the tank on the top of the tender is sufi-
GENTLY elevated TO allow the oil to reach
the furnace by gravity. watched the ap.
paratus closely, and found that pressure
of steam equsl to that produced from
coal fire was maint lined, and the absence
of eindcrs and dense smoke made the hot,
tedious journey over the steppe much more
agreeable, and at 10 time was the slightest
odOr of the oil perceptibls in the car.

REPUBLICANS sHoULD Be TRUE Tt
TESIR PARTY.

As ne said yesterday, SO we repeat this
morning The Democratic party asks Re.
publicans to award it victory to-day, not
for Sacramento or its good, but that it may
promote Democratic success in the national
election.
The Democracy never won a victory here
except by the aid OF the independent voters
OF the Republican party.
The only party that gives birth to the
Split OF true independence is the Republi.
can party.
No such independence ever emanates
from Democratic source.
To the brave, courageous, manly, self.
thinking and self respecting Republican
voter comes the Democracy to-day and
begs vote that it may more readily subor-
dinase this same spirit of independence.
VIII the independent voter consent to
warm bis political enemy to life?

Wheat raising has made nobody

be evident that "Whom the gods

That grade is not developed till it

North Dakota Comments on Judge
Gifrord,s Nomination.

JudgeO S, Clifford, the nominee at
the Pierre convention for delegate to
congress, is q resident Of Canton,
Lincoln county, a prcticing attorney
and said to be possessed Of fair ability
He has had no experience as a legis-
lator; has little acquaintance at
Washington, or with leading men
throughout the country, and will
necessarily be OF little value to the
territory, at least during the first
half Of his term in Office. But then
North Dakota has been downed, and
that is, Of course, a matter of more
importance.-Fargo Republican.
Probably no man could have been
elected from the south who will be
more acceptable to the north as they
make his acquaintance. Although the
south manifest no disposition to de-
preciate the services Of the present
member, it Is not surprising that
there was an earnes. and general ex-
preston in favor of the ssieetion of a
candidate whose interests are more
identified by location with their
special measures than one from the
north could be. Their immediate
and urgent demand is for the division
efthe territory on the forth-sixth
parallel, and the admission of the
south portion as = state. This end
they naturally believe would be best
subserved by citizen of the pros
pective state.-Fargo Argus.
While Judge Clifford is a South
Dakota man, first named by Petit
grew fer the honorable position, hi
his nomination is nevertheless pre-
eminently satisfactory to North
Dakota, which was instrumental in
positive degree in making the nomi
nation.-gismark Tribune.
