The police authorities recently ar

A. J. Warner, President of the BIZ
metallic Union, is out in proclamation
in which he speaks of the late verdict of
the people at the polls as victory of
trusts and syndicated wealth, and
brought about by corruption and coer-
icon." Mr.. Warner must have a high
opinion of his fellow countrymen when
he holds the majority of them to be
tools, slaves and towards. All such
twaddle as that in which Warner in
dulges is disgusting. 1t has not even
the flavor Of courage. 1t is all well
enough for him to renominate Mr.. Bryan
thus early for the campaign of 1900, but
when he charges the popular majority
with being corrupted, coerced and en-
slaved, he simply illustrates how easy it
is for man to pronounce himself an
ass.

WORKSHOPS MAY BE BUSTED.


New Apparatus Which VIII Conserve the
Health OF Operatives.
1t is rule of many, If not all, insur-
ance companies, in taking risk upon a
woodworking shop, that the fine dust
which nccumulates in great quantities
upon the beams and joists overhead and
elsewhere shall be periodically re-
moved. They must be kept clean. 1t
has been shown by experience that this
dust develops explosive qualities to al
most as great an extent as that of -four
mills. BY ordinary methods the re-
moval is attained with considerable la
Dor, and in proportion to the amount OF
labor is apt to be the degree of neglect.
At the Atchison, Topeka & Santa fe
railroad shops at Fort Madison, Ia,
compressed air is made to perform the
task with but little work. Air pipes are
run through the building overhead, and
at intervals they are provided WITH At
tings for the attachment Of hose. Once
week man is detailed who goes aloft
and blows the air into every crevice and
over every exposed surface. AS a result
the timbers become rs clean and as free
from dust as II the building had but Just
been completed. The improvement IN
appearance alone ought to be worth the
trifling expenditure. The practice az

Mans Dependence Upon Products Be-
meath the Surface.
So slow was the advance in the util.
ization of the earth's products that
when our ancestors first came to this
country there were not more than about
90 substances other than building
stones or gems which were won to COM
merce from the under earth. These
were scantily used; the amount of iron
required per capita each year probably
did not exceed five pounds, and the
amount of coal consumed was even
less. At present the annual consump-
ton of iron in this country amounts
to about $50 pounds, and of coal to moro
than ~ tons per head. The num-
Der of earth materials and their i'm
mediate products which enter into
the arts is to he reckoned by the hun
drcds; each year the number augmenta
with surprising rapidity. Measured by
the quantity of the materials won from
the depths, the civilized man to-day, MS
compared with his ancestors in the
time of Queen Elizabeth, has increased
his dependence on the under earth
by not less than 80 fold.-Prof. N. s.
