The Proposed Rangers.

The proposed organization OF COM
pany OF Rangers to do general police
duty in the Territory should receive tt e
careful consideration of the people Of
the couties as we'll as the lawmakers.
The pr OPPOSITION for the organization
OF the company comes from men inter
ested in stock raising, but the stock
men do Lot ask to control the Rangers
nor to monopolze their services. They
are intended as protection to sll inter
ests alike, apportioned to vstious Sec
tiops of the Territory on basis TO be
fixed according to the needs of each, and
to be under the control Of and paid by
the Territory, or State. The whole force
could be maseed if ccesssry. or detach-
ments SO distributed as to mako it prac
tically impossible for thieves, aseaesins,
or other desperate characters to carry
on their nefarious work in any county
and escape capture. There would under
the proposed syttem be a concert and
promptness as vol as vigor OF action not
found in the present system of eheriffs,
deputy sherltfs and constGbles, whose
pay comes out Of the taxpayers Of the
county, with often heavy additional
bonus lowed on the eufferer from u
wrong as a condition precedent to pur-
suit of the perpetrator.
The number of men proposed to be
employed under the new system is
twenty, at an estimated cost for equip
ment and pay Of 81 90 year per man.

but the organization is TO be i'll no sense
a military one. 1t would not interfere
with the local duties OF sherifrs in sew
ing the people Of their own counties, but
would supplement their work in broad
and general way, relieving counties and
individuals of the burden OF chasing
down criminals at their own expense for
the equal benefit Of all other sections Of
the Territory. Besides, it furnishes n

ment as dangerous.
"The weather has been against the
army so far" said be to-day, but by
the 1st of May fully believe there
will be an army of 10000 hungry,
half-clad men clamoring around the
National Capital. The spectacle of
such vast army of alleged working
men asking for employment in order
that they may not starve is something
new in the history of the world. If
the national troops are ordered out to
drive them away, who can imagine
the complications that may arise.
Those men of Coxey's army have
friends and sympatizers in every State

the country is approaching a crisis
such as faced it only once before, and
that was at the time of the great re-

Aluminium.

It is truo that every brick in house
and every bank of clay contains a con-
sidera BILE quantity of that beautiful
metal aluminium But science has not
yet discovered any economical way of
exlricating the metal from clay. be-
cause in the form it there exists,
namely, aluminium oxide, it is com
bired with silicon oxide, and these
two substances behave like a pair of
Siamese twins; they are so strongly
bound together it is next 10 impossible
to separate them. Therefore, in the
production of aluminium, chemists do
not use clay, but turn to some material
which contains the oxide of alumina
free from silica. The best material is
mineral known as cryolite, which
comes chiefly from Greenland. 1t is a
double fluoride of aluminium and So
dunn and an artifcially prepared ses-
quioxide of alumina; these are sus-
pended in bath of molten chlorides
Of the alkaline earths and then sub
jected to electrolysis by powerful
dynamos. The sodium salts are de-
composed, the metallic sodium sizes
eagerly upon the oxygen that was in
combination with the sluminum, and
as a result the white metal aluminium
is freed and settles to tile bottom.

THERE are occasional objections to
the practice of hosting the star
spangled banner over public school
houses, on tho ground that the
money thus expended would do more
good in other ways. One writer re-
marks on the number of books of
history commemoratiDg the deeds of
revolutionary and civil war patriots
that the money expended in buying
flags would purchase But is there
any reason why selection should
be made? Cannot the public afford
both flags and patriotic books? The
flag ought to DO looked upon with
affection by all, for it has been our
banner more than 100 years OF ma
'tional history, the inspirer alike Of
brave deeds and spirited poetry.
81 The patriotic books that have nothing
about the flag cannot be worth much.
and those which celeb rate it will be
all the better for an example by way
of object lesson. In Rochester, N.
T., a few years ago one Grand Army
post presented each of the schools
OF that city with handsome United
States flag. 1t is borne at the head
of the school when it marches in
