President Roosvelt's view of the

less success earned by the party in
congressional Legislation, it is not
strange that he is especially pleased
by the showing that he is made in
the western states. In the east the
big reductions made in the repubil-
can pluralities were prevented from
being bigger and several states
were saved to the party through the

OIL vs. COAL.

The coal strike and the consequent
scarcity of fuel has given imp etus
to the consumption of crude peto-
leum for fuel. and great deal of
the future demand for soft coal de-
ponds upon the results of oil burn
ing in the establishments which
have resorted to liquid fuel.
One of the chief experiments with
oil for fuel has been upon the sea,
on the transpacific liner Marip"sa,
which made vc:;,a e successfully
with nothing..but ri? in her bl1''ke's.
A naval officer was detailed to .;::'. ;
the voyage on the steamer "'d
make careful observations. III
addition. to this investigation, Rear
Adm ral Melville, chef engineer
of the navy, made tests with a large
boiler unuer which. the various oil
burning devices we're successfully
fitted. From these tests he has
reached the conclusions that oil can
be burned in very uniform manner
that a marine steamer generator
can be forced to as high degree
with oil as with coal; that no i'll
effects are shown upon, the boiler;
that the fire man are disposed to
favor the use foil; that tho air
requislt for combustion should he
heated, if possible, before cnt-I'ng
the furnace; that the oil should be
heated SO that it can be atomized
thoroughly; that smoke cannot be
preventd that the consumption of oil
cannot be forced as we'll with stea N
as with compress sed air. Reasoning
from this, Rear Admiral Melville is
now of the opinion that while oil can
probably be used to advant-
age on the torpedo boats, as
we'll as upon auxiliary naval
vessels which steam from port to
port, the problem is more intricate
in the cases Of the battleships and
cruisers, because of mechanical
commercial and structural difficulties
The most conspious trial Of oil as
fuel on shore is that of the Southern
Pacific railroad. Although the trial
on this road Was at first reported
a success, it was afterwards rumored
that it had failed because Of a
clogging of the flues andthe burn
ing out of the fire boxes. In connec-
ton with this rumor, it was stated
that operations on coal lands by the
Southern Pacific Company Indicated

They secure contracts to furnish
coal to many public constitutions
scattered over Ireland, formerly
furnished by the British. Ireland
had no Protective law to tax coal
mining there from foreign countries
and a result English mine operator
shipped in millions Of tons ut a lower
price than these two young men
and''progressive Irishman could mine
it for. AS an outcome the mines
near Dublin bad to close down and
the hundreds of labors working
there were thrown out of employ
ment.
The British operators then secured
control of the Irish mines and refus-
cd to operate them. When this
was done the price of coal was
crowded up higher than the Irish
operators sold it for. This is no
fictitious tale. it the real truth, as
any Irishman who is acquainted with
the history OF his native country
will tell you.
Had Ireland at that time Pro-
tecive Tariff British operator
IOuld not have forced those mines
near Dublin to go out of business.

this very general Indignation is
itself demonstration, that the
theory of our government is not

to exhibit to their children the
