THE SENATORSHIP.

Seuator Dana and Col. Eiley each
ask the Repu ublicans of the county to
give him their supper for the Senatorial
nomination. Other candidates may
make the same request. Every person
having any knowledge of politics is
aware that in order to win in the
District Convention, our county must
be united upon its candidate. To enter
the fight with a delegation split up
between two or more of our citizens, is
to invite defeat that would surely
come under such circumstances. There
is way open to avoid all this, and one
too, perfectly fair to every candidate:
and that is by submitting tine question
to vote of the Repu blicans of the
county This would enable the party
to select its man, and by that act auth
orize him-as it should do-to make up
a delegation of his friends, upon whose
support he could rely. That is but
justice to the one whom the voters
decide to present to the Senatorial
Convention, and no injustice to candi-
dates who do not succeed.
am little surprised that any gen
tleman asking the party support for
this important office should hesitate at
such course of action. Certainly, one
who expects to secure the public APP
proval, would not decline a mode OF
settling rival claims, SO obviously fair
and Just, and which, we may remark,
has been extensively used in other
counties. Our Athens friends have
just acted upon it, and thereby given
Mr.. Cable a delegation of his own
choice By that fact he expects TO
secure the nomination. Precinct selec-
tion compels the application of the
unit rule, or results in division which
assures defeat BY popular vote the
people have the choice of a candidate
il. their own hands. When their voice
is heard, the county is by that fact
united-its full strength going, as it
should, in that event, to the man so
selected. AS Republican, therefore,
who wishes to avoid unnecessary strife
in such matters, | favor choosing the
Senatorial candidate by popular vote,
and giving to the winner the right to
select his delegation.
This method is the fairest of all, the
one least likely to make factional
in the party, and has in it
the highest chances of success in secur-
ing a Senatorial nominee for Washing
ton county. l only add that no plan
ought to be adopted, whereby u candi-
late who cannot get the support of the
people, shall be able to divide the
TO the District Convention,
and thus assure the defeat of our man.
Let the people decide, and that as soon
As may be, as the shorter the contest,
.he less bitterness it engenders.

A NEW NAVY RIFLE.
The One Recently Adopted Found
to Be Unsatisfactory.
Unable to Bear the Strnin--A Lighter
Bullet Must lie Uscd-Ten
Thousand Guns to lie
Remodeled.
IConyright. 1871

Although the secret has been well
kept, naval men know that consider
able dissatisfaction has existed in the
service against the new .236 caliber rifle
officially sanctioned for use afloat. The
experimental weapons shot well at first,
but after q few rounds the bullets be-
gan to strip" i. e., pass down the bar
rel without taking the rifling, and in
consequence the accuracy of the arm
was ruined. This was found to be
caused by the tremendous pressure set
up in the narrow bore by the large
charge OF nitro powder, the long heavy
bullet, and the very sharp twist Of the
rifling. This pressure averaged $4,000
pounds TO the square inch, and was
sufficient, after a few shots, to per-
n1anently expand the barrel. AS it was
found impossible to prevent this in any
barrel of permissible weight, the naval
authorities have been compelled TO
tighten the bullet from 135 grains to 115
grains, although this will seriously i'm
pair the penetration and range of the
rifle. BY shortening the bullet it will
be made to spin with less twist, and
thus the pitch OF the rlfllng may be
slowed up from one turn in 6.5 inches, as
in the experimental arms, to one turn in
eight inches as in the latest approved
pattern. On account of the heavier bar
rels in machine guns the 135-grain bull
lets may be retained for their use, al
though experienced officers would much
prefer to see a uniform cartridge adopt
ed for machine and small arms, as in
action cartridges should be interchang-
able.
In spite of these drawbacks the lighter
bullet viii have some advantages. For
instance, it's initial velocity will be in
creased from 2,46O feet to 1850 feet a
second, which will fatten the trajectory
during the first 500 yards of its fight;
but owing to its relative lack of mo-
mentum, it will lose velocity far more
quickly than the longer one, and hence

THE CONVENTION CITY.

The selection Of the convention city
has no political significance whatever
There is nothing to fight over. Bush
nell will be renominated and Hanna en-
dorsed to succeed himself, and neither
of these gentlemen nor Foraker nor
President Mckinley care a rap where
the convention is held. 1t is chiefly Il
contest between the hotels of Coluu.-
bus and Toledo.
Early in the day tine Columbus work
ers had free field, They vaunted
their central location. They asserted
that this years convention would hav
a small attendance anyway, and none
at all if it was held in corner of the
state. They recalled that thirty-three
counties were not represented at all at
the last convention in Toledo in 1850.
But Toledo got there just the same.

TESTING BRICK.

A test of brick for street paving IN
order TO be accepted as conclusive must
be done in accordance with established
methods generally in use throughout
the country.
The latest dictum in that line is
found in the report of the Committee
of Street Paving at the meeting IN
Chicago last fall of the American So
ciety of Municipal improvements
The committee consisted of a. d..
Thompson, City Engineer of Peoria,
Ills; n. P. Lewis, Engineer of Street
Construction, Brooklyn, \. Y, and s.
j. Hathaway, Chairman of the- Paving
Committee, of this. 1t was in brief as
follows: Size of rattler, two feet in di-
ameter, three feet long, containing 200
to 500 pounds of scrap iron in pieces
weighing from one-fourth of u pound
to five pounds. Rattler revolved 10
revolutions per minute for four hours,
with examination and note of loss at
the end of each hour This contained
IL brick. OF course if the rattier is
larger more brick can be put in with
out detriment. The revolutions may
be from 10 to so per minute. Scrap
iron is generally used
The transversal test gives the
strength of the brick when used as a
beam, with the load applied at the
middle 1t is made by supporting the
ends upon knife edges and breaking
same by pressure applied by knife edge
in the middle with BRICK laid fiat This
is better than the crushing test, as it
shows the tensile strength and solidity
OF vitritication.
The amount of absorption IN a speci-
fed time is used by some cities as the
single criterion of the quality of the
brick, but generally there are three
qualities to be determined, viz: Tough
ness, mona bsorptivenes ana strength.
And the three mechanical tests of
abrasion, absorption. and transverse
strength show conclusively the degree
in which these qualities are possessed
by the specimens. 1t is not necessary
to determine the crushing strength,
because brick which possesses the re-
quisite transverse strength is suffice Mt
ly strong to resist crushing. The
quantity of water absorbed in given
time, generally As hours, indicates the
probable disintegration by freezing
and is also an indication of the COM
pleteness of vitrifcation. Brick should
be dried in an oven before immersion
in water. They should also be broken
or the outer coating removed in some
manner A brick which absorbs more
than two or two and oce-half per cent.
of water in As hours lacks the requisite
to such an extent that it
should be rejected. S. j. II.

1t is our sad privilege to record the
passing away Of one of Williamstown's
dear ones. After brief life of sorrow
and of joy, the last of family of four,
| Ida Pettay Nelson was laid to rest
beneath her covering OF green grass, in
the cemetery here, The services by
Rev Mr.. Keplar over her white casket
were very impressive. The church was
decorated for a previous occasion, and
the drapery of green, with the rays
falling from IL fast setting sun, made a
fitting picture of the scene.
Ida was known as a genial and kind
girl and woman; her patience and
fortitude bearing evidence through her
long suffering, of her strong Christian
character Death was robed so brightly
he had no terror for her. Her devoted
husband has the sympathy of everyone
lie spared nothing in his efforts to keep
her with him, love, atten tiou, money
all in vain. She lovingly awaits hlm
on the other shore, where suffering
and parting are no more. B.

a German professor, Karl Groos, has
written book on the plays" of ami.
mails, in which he undertakes to show
that the desire to indulge in play is a
true instinct among the lower crea-
lures. AS in man, the tendency to play
is stronger in young animals. Prof
Groos divides animal sports into a mum
Der of classes. Among them are: play
hunting" in which the prey is some
times such as the animal naturally
chases, and sometimes a "make-be-
lieve; "play-fghting," "building-play,"
"nursing-play,' plays of imitation
and others.

EDITOR LEADER;-
Ia your paper Friday morning you
say Washington County wants one of
the Senators from this the Ninth-Four-
taenth District. Are we proceeding in
the right way to succeed? Are the
people going to be heard in this mat
ter, or will the machine" grind on?
hat this County has for several years
been run by machine methods" of the
rankest order goes without denial. 1t
occurs to disinterested man up tree
that the machine" is all there is in
the way of a fair expression by the
people. When the date for the Sena-
torial Convention is fixed, let the pro-
per authorities call primaries as of old.
let the voters in the different precincts
select their delegates; let these dele.
gates decide whether Washington
County will present one or more candi-
dates to that Convention.
The machine may not approve this
plan, but it viii satisfy the voters and
no other plan will. d. IL. NJ.

will permit the men to carry more
rounds than they could were the heav-
ier bullet retained
AS stated above, the trajectory is
very fat; it does not exceed 2Ks feet in
the first 900 yards. Whether the ex-
tremely light bullet will give sufficient
"shock" remains to be seen. but possi-
bly, it may, as the 1856 Mannlicker seems
even more powerful than need be, and
in stopping power appears to surpass
the larger bores used by France, Eng
land and Austria, owing to the explo-
sive effect of the bullet of such high
velocity on animal tissues.
The 1856 caliber was chosen after ex-
haustive experiments by the United
States naval authorities, and was be.
lieved to combine the highest velocity,
lowest trajectory and greatest penetra-
ton of any military or naval small arm
in the world; but the breech pressure
has mounted from $4,000 pounds to the
square inch in the army so caliber to
nearly double that in the new navy
weapon, and hence these tears! The
new bullet will be about four diameters
in length, instead of over five, as in the
experimental cartridge.
The great European powers have Sc.
locted bores ranging between .315 and
.257, hence their anxiety to find out
what luck their dear friend Uncle Sam
is having with his daring reduction of
caliher. Unfortunately, it hardly seems
TO be success.
