contEivance, it can be discharged instan-
kaneously or deliver its deadly shook by
impact upon the hull of the beat. In
the Lost experiment made, some two
months or so ago, eyery fault which had
been detected in previous construction
are SAID by naval officers to have been
eliminated. The torpedo proved itself
perfectly comfortable from the shore for
distance of 1000 feet from the operator.
Its wonderful speed and its practical
inyisibillty are said never to have been
equalled in submarine constructions OF
this character. Immediately after the
trial one of the torpedoes was ordered
for the French government, and another
large order for the same nation ia said to
have since arrived. II the officers at the
navy yard ere to be believed, the Patrick
torpedo will soon be one OF the weapons
of coast defense used by the United
States, unless, as in the case of the
Hotchkiss and Maxim guns, both OF
which are American Inventions, foreign
governments secure she prize before our
own has made up its mind as to the
value OF the invention.

A Ne brasiSa Invention,

Washington special: The honor OF
having promoted and perfected the first
practical torpedo, rests with an Omaha
man. Ms. J. 81. N. Patrick. who for the
past FIVE years is said to have expended
large Gums Of money In improving the
Patrick torpedo, has of lest achieved
success. According to naval officers
here in Washington. the invention is the
most ingenious, the simplest in construc;
tion and the easiest to manipulate OF
any OF the torpedoes 30 iar offered fos
the approval of the navy department.
| Test after test has been made during the
last three years of this torpedo, and
representatives of eight foreign govern
ments have witnessed the experiments
AS such tests have shown where an i'm
provement could be made, funds have
been provided for further experiments
tion, until day it is confidently stated
by officers Of the American navy that no
nation Possesses an engine of naval de-
structior which can equal that now per.
fected by Mr.. Patrick.
The essential features OF the torpedo
are submarine boat, having in the prov
q large charge of dynamite and contain
ing an engine for self-propulsion. The
heat for the production OF power is se.
cured from the decomposition OF various
chemicals contained within the torpedo

If Governor Church succeeds in electing
nine members of the legislative council
whom he can control in his interest
there can be no repeal OF the existing
laws bestowing extraordinary powers
and extraordinary income upon him.
Nine members OF the council can block
the passage OF bill over'his veto. This
is what Governor Church is trying to do
and 1t will require the most active ef-
forts of the people of Dakota to defeat
his scheme. The governor has an sd-
vantage IN the fight. This is the year
for careful nominations and answering
fidelity to all republican nominees.
