The Republicans will carry nearly
every county in the state by substan-
tlal pluralities. Everywhere the Repub-
lican speakers have met with cordial
receptions and larger and more en-
thusiastic crowds than have been &C.
corded the Democratic speakers. Mr..
Pray has made splendid impression
wherever he has been and the people
recognize in him worthy successor
of Hon. Joseph M. Dixon.
The people of Montana will vote
to sustain President Roosevelt and his
policies by voting for Charles N.
Pray for their representative in con
gress and by electing members of the
legislature who will send another Re
publican to the senate. They will not
vote to strengthen the party of per
petual protest and obstruction. They
have had experience in the past with
Democratic promises and they will
not forget
They will not take chances with
men who must, whatever their pei
sonal desires, vote as a Democratic
caucus may dictate.
Il predict great victory in the
state of Montana for the Republican
congressional, judicial, legislative and
county tickets.
The governor may now as well re-
tire from the stump and busy himself
with writing election certificates for
Republicans"

inflame at once throughout the entire
tube. From one end of the tube, the
ignition goes to the other at a certain
speed which increases as the square
of the tube section. If the gaseous
mass moves toward the ignition
point at higher speed than this. the
fire will not reach the inside of the
tube. he application of this discovery
to a blowpipe is very simple, but 1t
required some one who should think
of it, as always happens. That the
idea is new is evidenced by the pat
ents which the company has obtained
in the leading countries. It has been
using the apparatus for the last few
years with great success. This latter
is of simple form, and the blowpipe
consists merely of long conical noz-
zle at the large end of which the gas
es are introduced by two openings. A
rubber tube passes from each inlet
to a gas cylinder provided with gas
expanders. Oxygen and hydrogen are
used. In the larger form, the rubber
tubes go from the cylinders to a COM
mon mixing chamber and from this
a single tube passes to tie blowpipe.
The lighter form of blowpipe weighs
only half-a-pound, while the acetyene
blowpipes weigh several times this.
The new system is specially useful
for welding tubes, sheet steel pieces,
boiler work etc. A remarkable appli-
cation is that of cutting metals, and
round piece is cut out by the flame
from one-inch steel plate at the rate
of one foot per minute. By using a
compass-like device which brings the
anne down on the plate and rotates
it around, the circular disk is cut out
of the thick plate like saw cutting
a soft plank, and the gap which 1t
leaves is scarcely wider than a saw
cut. The outlying metal is not affected,
as the blowpipe action is quite local.

A New Blowppe Welding Process.

One of the most recent improve
ments in the use of the blowpipe on
an industrial scale for the melting and
welding OF metals and performing diff
ferent operations at a high heat has
been brought out at Paris by the
Societe lOXyhydrique. For long time
inventors sought for az God system
of bloWpipe which would give com
plete combustion of the hydrogen,
acetylene, or other gas in the oxygen.
and especially to form a homogeneous
flame. But the fear of explosion pre-
vented them from operating the mix
ture of the two gases before burning
them, and hte gases were brought by
two separate tubes, either parallel or
converging. Under these conditions
the flame was composed of regions
having quite a different nature. In
the present case, the inventors sue
ceeded in mixing the two gases in the
body of the blowpipe itself, before the
burning. Completely mixed the mole,
cules of oxygen and .combustile gas
arrive at the flame in the proper pro-
portions for a complete combustion.
AS TO how the inventors were able to
prevent the explosion of the mixture
which is thus formed, We find that it
is by giving to the gas mixture a
speed which is higher than the rate
of propagation of the flame. Since the
researches of the Fire-damp Com
mission, We find that an explosive
mixture incloSed in a tube does not
