NICKEL MADE FROM GAS.

n plating Process That Docs Away with
Eicctro!ysis.
One of the most important results of
chemical research during the past
twelve months, says the Philadelphia
Record, arc the discoveries of Gir. Lud-
wig Mond, an EngiiShman, concerning
the metallic carbonyls, and especially
nickel carbonyl. The latter is a gaseous
substance that burns with bright lum-
inous flame, metallic nickel separating
and becoming incandcsccnt. Solids heat
ed in the presence OF this gas arc coat
cd with bright metallic nickel A curl
GUS property OF the metal thus dcpoait-
cd is that it is almost Il perfect non-con-
ductor of electricity.
a plant on a small scale has been con-
structcd by another Investigator in the
same field Tor the purpose Of extracting
nickel from its ores by means of car
bonic oxide, thus forming nickel car
bopyl. So successful las been this
plant that large establishment will be
erected soon ut Birmingham to carry
ont the process on q large scale. The
simplicity CT thc method and the posi-
bility CT at once obtaining pure metallic
nickel in any fern arc claimed to give
the process advantages over the present
mode of nieEcl plating by clcctro!ySis.
In view of the Increased usc Of nickel
steel. the discovery is believed TO pos
scSs exceptional value, sinco IL furnishes
simple method Of obtaining an abun-
dant and cheap supply Of niclicl.

PRICES on alDgpades of soft coal are
and have long bceBStoo high in Omaha.
There are rich coal deposits in central
Iowa, southern Kansas, in the Black
Hills, in Wyoming and in Colorado,
within easy roach of the consumers Of
Nebraska. Investigation made by THE
BEE in the past proved that it costs
more to transport coal from the mines
mentioned to Omaha than the coal is
worth at the mines. Local dealers of
course put on top of this a liberal mar
gin of profit, so that a ton of coal worth
81. So at the mines is retailed in Omaha
at from $3.50 to 81. That these prices
are exorbitant goes without saying.
They are maintained by a local combine
of dealers which levies a princely tribute
annually on the people of Omaha. Back
of them, of course, stand the railroad
companies pledged to uphold them in
their close corporation methods. The
only mea of redress hat seems at all
practicable is hat suggested in the re-
cent local populist platform, wherein 1t
vas recommended that 100 or more pri-
vate consumers pool together, acquire
trackage, and purchase large quantities
of coal. BY such means the combine
might be broken.

THANKSGIVING.

The nation St peace with the world.
The American people enjoying a higher
average of prosperity than any other
people on earth. The years crops ample
for supplying every demand. No cpl
demic disease anywhere in II broad
land. Our political institutions secure
in the love and patriotism Of the people.
The American name respected through
out the world. No obstacle to the con-
tinued material progress of the republic
that a wise and patriotic craftsmanship
cannot surmount. Are not these amply
sufficient reasons why the American
people should acknowledge on this day
Of national thanksgiving the divine
goodness and favor that has been so
richly vouchsated them and in gladness
and gratitude give praise and thanks for
the blessings that are theirs?
The spirit TO which this day appeals
should be as broad as the republic and
elevated above pessimistic reflections.
We all know that there is distress and
suffering throughout the land. There
has been a long period of depression that
has forced many people into %idleness,
and thousands of such will find little
reason for thankfulness beyond the fact
that they are living. Indeed, to many
even life may have become q burden.
No one can be altogether blind to these
conditions and none should be inditfer-
ent to them. 1t is rather a duty
to be mindful of them, to the end
that we may mako this the occa-
sion for helping the unfortunate and
giving them cause to be thankful with
us. But we shall miss the proper intlu-
ence of Thanksgiving day and fail to
experience its right inspiration if we
narrow our attention to the misfortunes
of the few and thus exclude from consid-
Grafton tho almost boundless blessings
of the many. 1t is the grand aggregate
of benefits and blessings enjoyed by the
American people which they are to
think OF today and these are ~greatenough
to inspire the most fervent thanksgiving
from those who acknowledge divine
providence in the affairs of mankind.
There will always be some OF
our people suffering hardships and
%privation. That seems to be
an inexorable law of the social organ
ism. But so long as our free institutions
survive, assuring to every citizen the
right to life, liberty and the pursuit Of
happiness" we shall have reason
enough as a people for national thanks
giving.
The oladneSS and tho fcastinp in mil.
lions of American homes today will
make for a truer citizenship and q
heartier patriotism. AS we realize the
meaning of this occasion it annot fail
to awaken a sense of pride in the privi'
lege of being an American citizen and
to inspire a ~profounder affection for oul
country, which from it's beginning as 9
nation has seemed to enjoy in a special
degree the favor of divine providence.
