ably that he saw little need OF express
ing arguments in the cause. and re-
ferred to the convincing expositions of
the men who had preceded him The
incoming mayor pointed out that care
must befexercised in handling the prop
erty. and indicated the pitfalls which
the enemies Of municipal ownership
wouId place before the issue. but he
contended frmly that the union labor

guard the integrity OF the ballot.

hirelings of the corporations.

told of the battle which his home city
of Cleveland, o.. had waged under the
leadership of Mayor Tom Johnson
against the desperate tactics of the
Cleveland city electric road Judge

ANOTHER STRONG SERMON.
A Fine Service Was Held In the
Christian Revival Last Night.

The increasing interest and the re-
suits so far. have warranted the Of

To Manufacture Nitrates

Consul Edwin N. Gunsaulus of
johannesburg writes that. in addition
to the great scheme for supplying
power to the Rand. a new company, to
be known as the Pretoria power COM
pany. is being formed TO supply power
and to manufacture. at a hydro electric
station on Crocodile river, nitrate of
lime and nitric acid. Three large banks
in Europe are said to be supplying the
capital.
For the initial works, which are to
furnish 10000 to $4,000 horsepower.
s3,469,s75 will be required. and for the
nitrate of lime and nitric acid works
s1.250.000 additional will be necessary.
The present cost of nitrate of soda de-
1ivered to South African ports is about
s54 per ton, while nitrate Of lime.
which serves the same purpose as
fertilizer, can be produced and sold. 1t
is said. at half of that price in the
Transvaal.
There is considerable demand for
nitric acid in South Africa for use in
the manufacture OF dynamite for
mining purposes. --------->-
