DEMOCRATIC
RALLY TONIGHT
Senator WarburtOn and Colonel
Hathaway to Speak.
POLITICAL MEETING IN ARM0RY HALL
Able Orators viii Address the Voters
on the Important Issues Of the
Campaign.

State Senator Stanton Warburton
and Colonel Howard Hathaway, dem
ocratic nominee for congress-, will
speak at a democratic rally tonight at
Armory hall.
Senator Warburton is advocating the
election of Judge George Turner for
cratic state ticket. His speech will
be an interesting one to republicans.
For many years Senator Warburton
has been a republican leader in Pierce
county. In 1S96-the year of the flu
sion landslide-he was the only repub-
lcan state senator elected in the
whole state of Washington. He was
renomnated and reelected in 1900.
Senator Warburton is one of the
closest personal friends Governor Nc
Bride has in this state. Two years
ago he stumped eastern Washington
for the republicans with the governor.
The two men are not only personal
friends, but ever since Mcbride be-
came governor they have been on
warm terms of political intimacy.
In the last session of the legislature
Senator Warburton, in addition to his
support of the commission BILL intro
1uced a tax commission bill, designed
to increase the taxes of railroads and
other public service corporations. In
drafting the bill Senator WarburtOn
had the legal assistance of Governor
Mcbride and Senator Will G. Graves
of Spokane. The bill was slaughtered
by the railroad lobby.
Immediately after the Tacoma con-
vention this year Senator Warburton,

the study of the salt industry near

in Utah and California in the sur

for gratuitous distribution.
The two saline producing areas
which Mr.. Eckel describes are of pc
culiar interest, for they contain the
largest solar evaporation plants in the
United States. While thus agreeing in
method of treatment. the practice in
the two districts varies because of diff

of the brine. The brine pumped from
Salt Lake, Utah. carries over 20 per
free from calcium sulphate, which has
been deposited naturally at an earlier
water. The water of San Francisco
Bay, on the other hand. is rather less
salt than that of the open sea- and its
gypsum must be precipitated at the
works.
Great Salt Lake IS but the remnant
of an immensely greater body of water
called Lake Bonneville, which was re-
duced by evaporation to its present size
while at the same time it became a
highly concentrated solution. The
water of Great Salt Lake has varied
considerably in it's degree of concen-
tration even during the comparatively
short period that has elapsed since the
settlement of Utah. If the records can

that date until some time in the sew
entities the lake gradually became

concentration in 1873. A reverse pro-
cess then set in, and the lake has now
almost reached the concentration point
of 1850.

Inland Crystal Salt company, and the
method by which the lake brine is
purified and the salt precipitated He
also describes the equipment of that

Sistersville daily oil review. [volume] (Sistersville, W. Va.) 1902-1905, 1904-12-12

For the past twenty-four hours
the residents in this section OF the
Ohio valley have experienced
some genuine winter weather. 10
the great surprise of most every
BODY the river was frozen over
Saturday night. The evening pre-
vious there was very little float
ing ice in the stream, and while
the stage of water is exceedingly
low. no one dreamed of it closing
in a single night. Navigation is
now practically suspended on the
river, and present indications are
anything but fattering for better
conditions in the very near fu-
ture.
The first heavy snow of the sea-
son spread it's white mantle over
the city early Saturday morning.
It began falling Friday evening
about 9 O clock and continued un,
til noon Saturday. A sharp wind
which accompanied the snow dur
ing the early portion of Saturday
morning caused the snow to drift
in many places. The Wetzel,Ty,
Ter Electric Railway company had
out a number Of gangs OF men
clearing the line in and out OF the
city and did not have much
difficulty in maintaining the regu-
lar schedule. Country people took
advantage of the fine shedding
Saturday and today to come to
to this city to do their holiday
shopping. Previous to the snow
fall the roads, in the country were
as hard and smooth as floor and
consequently but little OF the
beautiful was required to make
elegant shedding. Merchants en-
loved an unusually brisk trade
Saturday, which fact was due to
the seasonable weather.
1t is estimated that the snow
was on an average of from 4 to .
inches deep on the level, which
was sufficient to make fine sleigh
ing on the paved streets and ex-
cellent shedding on all the country
roads leading to town. During
Sunday afternoon man. were out
enjoying the first good sleighing
of the year 1904, and the vlsl-
tation of the Snow King at this
time could not have been more
opportune. 1t contributes as moth

ing else can to the appearance OF
an old-time Christmas, and makes
it possible for Chris Kringle and
his caravan of numerous articles
that delight the young, to get III
to the eiry in the way laid down
from time immemorlal.
The weather Saturday night
was by far the coolest experience
ed in this city and vicinity the
present winter, and Sunday was
the coolest day. The thermome-
ter registered / degrees below
zero at the Peoples National
bank at s o'clock Sunday morn
ing. On PursIey creek, three miles
east of the city, the Thermometer
is reported to have registered III
below zero, and on Sancho creek
II and x degrees below zero.
Sunday was a very cold raw day,
but during the night the weather
moderated greatly, and early
Monday morning snow begun to
fall, and came down direct from
the north, which is having the
good effect of improving the
sleighing. The snow, however,
spoiled the fine skating on the
river for the time being. Many
ventursome young men were skat-
ing on the river close to the
shores Sunday afternoon between
this city and Matamoras. The ice
was as smooth as glass from shore
to shore, which is an unusual oc-
currence. Always in the past
when the river froze over there
existed shore ice on both sides OF
the river which was very rough,
but on account of the low stage
of water it closed this time before
any shore ice was made. Had the
snow of today not spoiled the
skating it would certainly have
been the finest on the Ohio ever
before enjoyed by the lovers Of
this fine sport in this section Of the
beautiful Ohio valley. The ferry
boat is still running, having open
ed a channel Sunday afternoon.
The boat will continue in opera
ton as long as it is possible. Cap
tain Talbot is to be commended
for his enterprise, as the public
generally is greatly benefited by
having the ferry boat continue to
transport people and teams across
the river.
