IBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TR1BUNE.l
Chicago. Dec. Or Alexander Smith, pro-
fessor of general chemistry at the University of
Chicago. who has been devoting himself to ex-
periments with sulphur for several months. has
succeeded in establishing the fact heretofore
unknown to chemists. that liquid sulphur can
be frozen temperature of 1929 degrees.
While the discovery is said to have no COM
mercia1 value, it is regarded an important
triumph in chemistry. DR.. Smith, in making
other experimental analyses of sulphur, has de-
termined certain laws which he feels certain
will have much influence on the practical uses
OF sulphur in the future He has separated the
amorphnus or sodd from the soluble or liquid
sulphur and learned many facts of their nature

WORKING THE SYMPATHETIC RACKET.

The Willmar Republican Gazette
has the following to say regarding
a political ruse, fact to which GER
tain, if not all, of the physicians in
this county will give their testi-
mony, and many of whom have al
ready expressed surprise at the at
tempt to work the sympathetic
racket: During those closing days
of the campaign we may look for all
sorts of ingenious schemes on the
part of certain candidates intended
to catch the fancy or appeal to the
prejudice or sympathy Of the voters.
We have heard of resort being had
to the nationality or other improper
arguments, Fbut the climax in this
has beensreached in a letter now
being sent out by doctor at Man
kato to members of his profession in
this congressional district, solicit
ing their support for, Mr.. Dowling,
because he rs "a monument to the
ach;cvcncr;o of modern surgery.
The u.ter bears close evidence Of
having been carefully edited so as
to awaken the sympathy of the re-
cipients The.letter refers to the
fact that MrEDowling served as
speaker of the house Of representa-
tives. If the writer knows any
thing about political history, be
ought to have added that every
member of the house Of representa-
tives in the fourteen counties in the
Seventh district is opposing Mr..
Dowling's candidacy for congress.
The doctors of the district can't be
worked" politically by this trans
parent appeal to their sympathy IN.
stead of their Judgment. "
