MR.. ALBAUGH'S VIEWS,

hN. 1AAA11O IL ~ v LIZ W
Morton Albaugh who will to-
night retire as chairman of the
Republican state central com NIT
tee after six years of service.
during which the entire govern
ment has been turned from the
Populists to the Republicans,
publishes the following comments
on the recent state convention in
his paper, the Kingman Courier
Leader:
Republicans everywhere
should line up for E. w. Hoch
for governor and give him a cor
dial and earnest support. In his
canvass for the nomination he
made mistakes, serious ones, but
it is more than likely that he was
forced into them by his fool
friends. If left to himself it is
doubtful if he would have gone
into the Second district and taken
hand in the congressional fight
there, openly attacking one of
the brightest and cleanest young
men of the state. 1t is also
doubtful whether he would have
attended and spoken at the rump
convention held in Miami county,
and thus given countenance to
an open party bolt had he not
been over-urged by those who
claimed that he was under par
ticuiar obligations to them"
"Mr. Hoch is a clean, capable
republican. He deserves the
earnest support of his party.
Not because he is better than
other republicans, for he isn't,
not because he will give the state
any better administration than
his republican predecessors, for
he won't, not because he will
handle patronage different from
his predecessors, for he will
utilize it just as they have and
just as they should, in assisting
his friends"
"But he should be supported
because he is a clean man and is
at the head of the ticket of the
only party that in either the
state or the nation stands for
things and does things"
at is unfortunate that this
ticket was nominated in aconven-
ton so completely dominated. by
the railroads, but Mr.. Hoch is
not to blame for this and should
not be held responsible for it."
1T is particularly unfortunate
that he has upon the ticket with
him thief. an embezzler and a
forger, man who would now be
in the penitentiary except for the
fact that the statutes of limita-
tions had run before his crimes
were discovered, but who did pay
back to Miami county over
thirteen hundred dollars of adj
mitted thefts."
"The high handed way in
which the railroads dominated
the recent republican state con-
vention was disgraceful in the
extreme and without precedent
in the history of Kansas conven-
tons. Transportation was fur
nished the delegates. That has
often been done in the past, but
IN addition unlimited quantities
were furnished to outsiders who
were willing to help consumate
the things the railroads wanted.
A railroad contractor was made
temporary chairman of the con-
vention; likewise permanent
chairman. OF the six delegates
to the national convention two
are general attorneys for Kan
the Rock Island and ]. H. Rich
ards for the Missouri Pacific.
One other-W. A. Fitzpatrick is.
attorney for the Missouri Pacific

good deal like the tail of a fish and
works very much on the same principle
The idea is to have one of these pro
pellers on each side of the stern of the
boat, and more can be used. Mr. Thomp-
son will have launch built during the
winter which will be fitted out with his
invention and next spring we hope to
see successful demonstration of it. II
the propeller is successful, as it certainly
gives promise of, it will revolutionize
ocean propulsion. and Mr. Thompson will
have something that Messrs Morgan
Rockefeller and Carnegie will be anxious
to join in capitalizing.

Runs Engine With Kerosene.

J.J. Power of Madison has invented
scheme by which gasoline engines can
be run with kerosene. This will lessen
the expense Of fuel and it maybe that
some day the railroads will do away with
the use of coal on locomotives and use
kerosene. Only recently Mr.. Power in
vented vaporizing or mixing valve, in
combination with which he used COM
mon centrifugal governor by which he
controlled an ordinary gasoline engine
more completely than an engine could
be controlled running at various speeds.
He now uses common kerosene to run
this gasoline engine and it makes the
same run at much higher rate of speed,
much steadier and doubles the power.
The invention has been tested by stu
dents and professors of the engineering
college of the university
M. Power starts the engine with gas
oline. After the engine runs for about
one minute he turns off the gasoline and
turns on the kerosene, making no change
on the engine whatever. The engine
Immediately gains in speed, steadiness
and power and will not use one-half as
much kerosene oil as it will gasoline.
The inventor accomplishes this result
without adding machinery of any kind
to an ordinary gasoline engine. The ker-
osene feed pipe runs through the ex-
haust pipe for a few inches, thereby
utilizing waste or exhaust heat. The ex-
haust from the engine makes no noise
and emits no noxious gases. Mr.. Power
has applied for patent at Washington.
