1t does not require very keen
observer to discern that the Indian
Territory has its full quota Of men
who are ready to seek political
honor and preferment at the first
opportunity. Most any of the
leading towns of the territory
could muster half a dozen men
who would be willing to run for
congress if the opportunity pre-
sented itself. Both the democrats
and the republicans are we'll repre-
sented by aspirants, and it cannot
be denied that men of first class
ability are among the number.

With the proclamation of Mayor
Sheehan, issued last week, giving
legal notice of the annual munich
pal election a month hence, comes
the usual campaign talk that al
ways proceeds the nomination of
city tickets. Mr.. Sheehan is the
logical candidate for re-elec-
tion to the Office Of mayor, and, SO
far as The Chieftain is informed,
no other candidate has been men,
toned. His administration has
been popular and successful one,
and if the democrats nominate
him again be will be elected
easily.

No institution that Vinita ever
had was SO universally commend
ed as the public school under Prin-
cipal Dugger and his efficient corps
of teachers. The value of such an
institution cannot be estimated in
dollars and cents. The way the
tax payers of the town acquiesced
in the ten mill tax imposed by the
town council is significant en-
dorsement of the school and its
management.

THRIFTY ART STUDENTS.
How They Spend Their Summers and

There are thousands of art students liv-

ALUMINIUM TRANSMITS POWER
Experiments with that Metal as a
Conductor for Electricity.

The already practically foreshadowed
electric transmission purposes adds inter
est to Lord Kelvin's recently-expressed
opinion of them. The weight of alumni
mum required, he said, is almost exactly
onC.half of the copper which would pro-
ducc the same effect The diameter of
cable is % per cent. in excess of one
made of copper, and the cost of insula-
tion for an underground cable is in
creased in about the same proportion
when we pass from the copper to alumni
mum.
Aluminium is not a pleasant metal TO
deal with, but its high conductivity will
make it invaluable for overhead trans
mission. 1t is true also that the weight
to be supported on posts is half of cop
per, but the surface exposed TO the wind
is greater and its strength is not great.
The chief drawback to its use especially
overhead. is its liability to become rot
ten. This defect does not exist if the
metal be pure and especially if free from
sodium. But exposure 10 the atmos-
nhere, especially near the sea, induces
deterioration. The fact that aluminium
is easily oXidized ought not to condemn it.
The same is true of iron and steel, and
yet we do not hesitate to place structure.

A movement is on foot. said to be
backed by Philadelphia coalmen, to build
at Summit Hill, near Mauch Chunk, Pa,
a monument Of coal to the memory OF
Philip Ginter, who discovered coal within
a very short distance Of Summit Hill. In
September it was 100 years since Ginter
made his great discovery. He lived in
rough cabin in the forests on the Mauch
Chunk mountain. While in quest Of
game for his family, whom he had left at
home without food of any kind, his foot
struck black rock. By the roadside,
not far from the town of Summit Hill,
he built fire of wood and threw pieces
of the supposed stone about it, so that
the embers might last longer while he
was roasting a fowl. He was surprised
after little while to see the stones aglow
and retain their heat for a long time.
He carried lot of the coal home and
burned it there. The few neighbors soon
learned Of the discovery, but there was
no mining to any extent in Carbon coun-
ty until after the war of 1912 had begun.

Gently invalided home from the Asiatic
station while in command of the monitor
Monadnock. He is the third commander
of that vessel to be incapacitated since

II. +. Nichols while commanding the
vessel was sunstruck and died at Manila
in June, 1899, and Capt. John J. Me
Gowan, who succeeded him in command,

the hardships of life on board the low
lying monitor, with its poor ventilation,
in the facilitating climate Of the Philip

from Massachusetts as a volunteer Off
Ger soon after the beginning of the Civil
war, in 1862, and has since served in all
parts of the world. Prior to taking com
mand of the Monadnock he was in com
