Castle. j. G. Giesting. Charles L. Field,
Ralph L. Hatl1orn and Jerome j. Fried
berg on its ticket as candidates for
delegates to the state convention, the
Lincoln Roosevelt league In the for
tieth district is confident of routing the
push" in every precinct.
In addition to these prominent re-
publicans, six others have been named
as candidates for delegates to the con-
gressional convention; John Hender-
son, George Uhl, DR.. Richard F. Tom
linson. Hyland L. Baggerly, John n
Dumbrell, Arthur F. Rousseau and DR..
r. NJ. H. Berndt.
Against these two strong tickets the
push" Of the fortteth district captained
by Hamilton Bauer, George Hatton's
notary, have failed to make any head
way.
The fortieth is big district. thickly
populated by citizens OF high intelH-
gence on whom the movement for clean
politics has taken a strong hold This
fact is proved by the enthusiasm which
has been manifested during the canvass
of the district made by the Lincoln
Roosevelt league. Assurances of sup
port have been extended by hundreds
Of voters and material assistance in the
struggle against bossism has been vol
unteered from every quarter. except
from the railroad and the public Serv-
ice corporations, whose assistance Is
not wanted in the league fight
The help of the railroad has been ex-
tended. however. TO Hamilton Bauer

like to go back to the state senate.
where he acquired his appetite for
Southern Pacific program, is bending
every energy to deliver the district to
Herrin and Hatton.
Associated with Bauer In his forlorn
task are men like Milton Schmitt, can
didate for the assembly; Ed Kelly and
Oscar Greenbaum. Henry Thompson is
also doing his share, though he has had
his enthusiasm somewhat dampened by
the attempt of Milton Schnaitt TO fore
stall him in the good graces OF Herrfn
and so cop" the nomination for the
assembly. which Thompson regards az

While the leaders Of the push" are
thus engaged, squabbling for reserved
seats at the pie counter. the members
of the Lincoln Roosevelt league, with
no program, no slate and no axes to
trict in the interests of clean politics
and an Embossed convention.
So glazing is the contrast between
their methods and the methods of the
push, so different are the political rec

the members of the railroad machine
In the district, that the fight has not
been an especially hard one, and the
league has every prospect of success

1t has been remarked that the effec-
tive life OF incandescent electric lamps
Is much longer with clear than with
ground glass bulbs 4. r. Hyde ex.
plains this fact as follows: A. thin de,
posit Of carbon IS formed on the in.
terror surface Of the bulbs, and this
absorbs a certain portion OF the radla-
tion from the filament When the
glass IS clear the light passes straight
through. suffering definite loss from
the carbon film. When the glass Is
frosted the light undergoes many re-
Elections in the inicaior of the bulb
from the innumerable facets, and at
each reelection it loses something on
account OF the obstructing film. The
consequence IS that the total amount
OF loss Is much greater with ground
glass than with clear glass. Mr.
Hyde's Experiments show that the fla
ment lasts as long ia the one kind Of
bulb as In the other Youths Com
