Acetylene is being used as an explosive in
Germany. where it has proven Disappointing as
an illumiuant. Each cartridge contains an
ounce and three-fourths of calcium carbide,
yielding about 10 quarts of acetylene, and after
wetting the carbide the confined mixture Of
generated gas and air is exploded by an electric
spark. In blasting. the rock is not thrown out,
but is broken up into pieces small enough to be
readily removed.

In liquefying helium, the last of the gases that
have been thought to be permanent, Olszewski
has reached temperature Of 271.30 below zero
Centigrade. This is cold about 10 greater
than Dewar obtained three years ago in liquefy-
ing hydrogen, and is within about 20 of the sup
posed absolute zero. The question has now been
raised whether 273.7o below the freezing point of
water is really the absolute zero.

In short, the Twenty-eighth senator

The Democrats have nominated
for state senator Thomas Conner,
whose wealth Is somewhere In the
millions. The Republicans have
nominated John R. Holmes, whose
fortune is easily above the $3.50, 900
mark. No man has ever been elected

with she anti.imperialism Of the
Democratic platform Of 1000. That
was declared to he the paramount
issue Of bis candidacy In the Psesi-
Dental campaign Of shat year
In one OF his letters from the Phil
ippines, printed in the Republic some
months ago, Mr. Br, an fully OUT
lined his well-matpred plan Tor re-
storing selfgcverhmsnt TO the Fill.
pinos with saiety TO ourselves snd
full justice to them
In this plan il is notproposed that
we abandon tbe islands all together.
Mr.. Bryan would retain ell the naval
stations and cosllng stations which
may be deemed Leoesssry for our
naval and commercial operation T.,

While combining our military occu
patton to these stations, he woul J
guarantee the islanders againet
aggression by any other nation,
leaving them to control their own
affairs In their own way, and giving
them such benevolent assistance az
might be required In the establish.
ment and maintenance OF orderly
seli-government.
There is sound policy as we'll IS
humanity in this plan. The Fill.
pinos do not like our rule: They are
likely to rebel against 1t whenever
they see the opportunity. Our oc.
cupstion OF the islands is draining
about 500, 900, 900 a yearirom the
pockets oiAmerican taxpayers. Our
Government OF them without their
consent violates the fundamental
principle OF the Declaration o! Inde-
pendence.
The United States are not likely.
under any conditions, to surrender
our naval and commercial stations
in the Philippines, nor to allow 9th
or nations to trespass there. But In
O rider to hold them, 1t Is not neces.
sary to stultiiy ourselves, nor to
waste money lavishly In trying to
