THAWING BY ELECTRICITY
Frozen Water Pipes arc Now I'm
sealed While YOu Wait

Madison. Wis, Feb. 22.-Prof. Wood, Of
the University of Wisconsin, said today;
In view Of the extent of the water famine
due to frozen pipes, and the number Of
communications that we have received for
more explicit information about the cleo
tricaI method Of removing ice from the
pipes, the following details are of interest:
The second house TO which the process
was applied was that of Senator W. +.
Villas, where there was a stretch of 800
feet OF solidly frozen pipe between the
house and the main. One of the wires
was connected to the pipe where it enters
the cellar and the other carried TO faucet
in a neighboring house across the street.
From this faucet the current trzver=ed
the service pipe to the street. flowed along
the main and then followed the 800 feet
of frozen pipe 70 the cellar connection. In
twenty minutes from the time that the
current was turned on there was fun
head OF water flowing from the faucet in
the cellar. The street main was not frozen
in this case, Of course. The frozen SiJe
was only heated TO about 50 degrees Fan
renheit, but this was quite sufficient 10
rapidly clear out the ice. The apparatus
used must be carefully adapted 70 the
work required OF II and must be properly
operated, but the process is perfectly sim
pie and may be carried on by any intelii-
gent workman after he has been oroDerly
instructed The method IS now being used

Jackson and myself. the process being In

Alger's Threat.

While celebrating the %annivers-
ary Of the martyrei Lincoln last
week Secretary of War Alger, in
referring to the mastering out Of
the volunteers and the increase in
the standing army, used these
words:
"One hundred and twenty-five
thousand now remain and we hope
that soon we shall have an army
bill such as is fitted for this mighty
nation, and that we can relieve
these volunteers and put men in
their places willing to serve as
soldiers. If this is denied us
want to pledge you ;hst the men
in the field, though their time may
be up, will never be reieased.'
The volunteer army, part of
which still remains in the service,
enlisted for the war against Spain.
That war has been successfully
fought out and is at IN end.
There is not a man in the army
who enlisted to fight a foe other
than the Spanish, though they are
today crushing the Filipinos, who
eight months ago were our allies.
Alger is for an increase in the
standing army Of the countryside
adoption of a policy chung to only
by monarchies. So is every other
plu.ocrat and every corporation in
the nation. Voicing the senti-
ments of these interests Secretary
Alger stands up and plainly says
that if this army increase measure
IS denied them that "the men in
the field, though their time may
be up, will never be released" In
other words, Give the admins
tration its way or your sons will BE
kept in the service" No matter
what the people may desire in the
matter, Alger and the corporation
interests he represents are in the
saddle and "the people be damn
ed"
How do the mothers and fathers
whose sons responded to their
country's call like the attitude Of
this ''patriotic' secretary of war
and the administration which is
backing him7

As to Business Ability,

AS SOD as the silver legislature
of 1907 had closed its labors every
little republican sheet and Han
n%aCratiC stumper in South Dako-
ia set up a howl over the ''lack OF
business ability shown by the
pops" The cry was sent to the
four winds and was rehashed ia
in the campaign last fall until the
Criers we're hOarse and exhausted
in the efforts to rid the state of this
''lack Of business ability" lust
put the state government in the
hands Of the republicans and
things would fairly hum. They
would show the ignorant common
herd how to run the thing on a
business basis.
Well, they captured the legis-
lature and all of the state officials
except the governor. The present
legislature has but a very few DAYS
ieft---and what has it done?
Think the matter over candidly
and f~airly-what has this legisla-
ture done? A comparison of its
record with that of the 'lack of
business aoliity' shown two years
ago is fatal. 1t has spent sixty
days in langling. 1t has passed
appropriation bills enough to
swamp a state of four times the
age of South Dakota, but, thanks
to a level headed silver governor,
they can't all become effective.
measure Of practical worth
to the people that has been passed
by the present legislature has been
favored and supported by the fu-
sion members. Republicans have
spent a great deal of time in jang-

Gov. Lee urges economy all
along the line and states that
South Dakota has only about $751;
