Why the Farmers Got Licked.
Clinton News-Dispatch.1

The late campaign was simply a
fight OF all classes OF people against
the farmers with about three-fourths
of the farmers helping the classes to
wipe them on the face OF the earth.
No wonder they got licked.
Say, Mr.. Farmer, how do you feel
now since you voted the Democratic
ticket and the city dudes are laugh
ing and growing fat because you did
not have any more sense than to vote
for a party that will reduce the price
OF everything you raise on the farm?

USING ELECTRICITY AT SEA
Important Part It Plays In Developing
Great Speed Attained by I'm.
mense Ocean Liner

A writer in the Electrical Review,
of London. gives an interesting ac.
count of the important parts played
by electricity in developing the great
speed attained by the Mauretania. He
says
Without I'm any way rejecting upon
the abilities of the engineers. 1t must
be admitted that they did not seem TO
have grasped the great possibilities Of
| the various auXiliarles on the ship,
and Il is attention 10 these auxiliaries
which determines the ultimate fulfill.
ment of the designers ideas.
"As Is now well known. practically
all the auxiliary machinery on the
Mauretania is electrically driven.
and It is equally well known,
especially among electrical engineers
connected with shipwork, that marine
engineers have a stubborn and con.
servative objection to anything other
than the steam-driven plant with
which they have been brought up
When, therefore. an electrical installa.
tion of more than 1000 horse power
was thrust upon them with practically
no qualified electricians on board to
enlighten them as to it's proper usage,
they naturally felt some trepidation,
and had little desire to attempt any
record speeds.
Perhaps 1t is not quite evident why
the speed Of the ship should entirely
depend on the auxiliary plant, and in
explanation II must be said that prac.
tically all fast boats require a rela.
lively enormous quantity of steam at
high pressure, which can only be OBJ
tanned from the boilers when high.
power forced-draft fans are employed
to supply air to the furnaces, and a
slight diminutlon in their output has
an Immediate effect on tho steam
pressure of the boilers, and conse-
quently on the speed Of the engines
and propellers. In the case of the
Mauretania tho forced-draft fans are
electrically driven"
According to the writer, the entire
dependence Of the boats speed on the
electric generating plant is now thor
oughly understood. and one of the first
considerations is TO keep up the volt
age. Before this, It might drop 10 or
IS per cent. and the only result was
dim light and the slowing down OF
a few unimportant motors-but on the
Mauretania 1t is vital. In conclusion,
we read:
1T is strange, on the face Of II, that
such apparently small details should
be the means of converting a 23-knot
boat into one of 26 knots; but 1t is no
exaggeration to say that the records
of the Mauretania are entirely due to
better understanding Of the elec.
trical conditions"

length of time. His health flies out
through the nerves.
THE schools and churches of the
city are also at fault There must be
places where the boy. during his edu-
cation, can come into contact with
thoroughly virile men, as it is doubt
full If any woman can enter into the
chaotic condition of mind of a boy
from IL to Ia years of age. The pas
tor is worse than useless if he is only
to be a policeman to usurp the privi-
ieges of boyhood."

the frightful work Of an uncontrolled
mob. We are aware that the better ele-

white as well as black, rich as well as
poor.
We further congratulate the state upon
the abolishment Of the legal sale of In
toxicating liquors within our borders.
The good effects Of the law are now clear

the law to prevent the illegal sale of
