nous.
The News for one, is sorry to note that
DR.. Mead has been able to revive this old
political game OF buying extra editions
of a newspaper containing favorable
editorial comment on a candidate.
However well intentioned and honest he
may be, the publisher who makes prac-
tice of selling a lot of papers to politi-
clans is on dangerous ground if he
values his reput alton and the influence of
his newspaper.
The political buyer must know in
advance what the editorial is in order to
decide it he wishes to send out the
papers, because no publisher prints
many extra copies without they are or
dered in advance. While a publisher
may be a sincere supporter OF certain
candidate, if he makes business of sell
ing him extra copies of his paper his edit
oral expression is liable to be influenced
by his business instinct rather than his
honest Judgment of matters pertaining
to the canvass of his political friend.
In former DAYS it was not uncommon
for a certain class of publishers, who
were generally regarded as upright citi-
zens, to run. in their editorial columns
articles which were dictated by the poll
tician himself, when large extra edition
of his paper was paid for by the candi-
date. This has largely disappeared in
recent campaigns, owing perhaps in
some degree to a higher moral stand by
the publishers but more particularly be-
cause the public has caught onto the
scheme and therefore the articles are
valueless to the politician.
1t may be argued that candidate
should have a chance to present his side
of the matter. Most certainly he should.
Practically all newspapers are willing to
publish signed communications without
charge, the length of such depending
upon the space at the command of the
publisher. The advertising columns too,
are open to any person in most news
papers and if he buys space at regular
rates he can say what he pleases within
the bounds of decency.
Hon P. w Clement set a good exam
pie in political advertising in his cam
paigns. 1t has always been the opinion
of the News that the advertising he put
out was entitled to much more credit
than it received generally for the remark
able showing he made.-[ Mortified

a Peculiar Characteristic Of This Ter
rible Explosive.
Many and odd are the materials Gu
tering into the manufacture OF modern
explosives. but perhaps the most inter
esting of all these elements of destruc-
ton as well MS the simplest Is gun cot
ton. The gun cotton manufacturing In
dustry f. large. as enormous quantities
are used in the charging of tOrpedoeS
and for similar purposes.
The base of gun cotton Is pure raw
cotton or even cotton waste, such us Is
used to clean machinery. This Is steep
ed in a solution of one part of nitric
and three parts of sulphuric acid. II is
the former Ingredient that renders the
mass explosive. the sulphuric acid he
ing used merely to absorb all moisture.
thus permitting the nitric acid to com
bine more readily with the cellulose Of
the cotton
After being soaked for several hours
In the solution described the cotton
is passed between rollers to expe
all mona bsorbed acid, a process carried
to completion by washing the cotton In
clear water. This washing process is II
long one. requiring machinery which
reduces the cotton to a mass reSenl-
bling paper pulp. Should any nonab'
sorbed acid be allowed to remain II

and sizes-disk shaped. cylindrical, tihi

light as ordinary batting.
A peculiar characteristic of this ter
rible explosive is that brick OF 1t

the cotton will fake and burn quietly.
If dry originally. however. the gun cot

about 800 degrees of heat.
In general it is the custom to eX-
plode gun cotton by detonation or an
intense shock instead of by heat. In Il
torpedo the explosive charge is wet,
this wet cotton being exploded by
means of dry cotton in tube. this

UNDER THE OCEAN.
Things That Happen at the Bottom
of the Sea.

Naturalists dispute as to the quantity
of light at the bottom of the sea- AM
mails from below 700 fathoms either
have no eyes or faint indications of
them. or else their eyes are very large
and protrudng.
Another strange thing is that If the
creatures in the lower depths have any
color ii is orange or red or reddish
orange. Sea anemoneS. corals. shrimps
and crabs have this brilliant color.
Sometimes it is pure red or scarlet.
and in many specimens it inclines to-
ward purple. Not green or blue fish
is found.
The orange red is the tish's protec-
ton. for the blush green light in the
bottom of the ocean makes the orange
or the red fish appear of il neutra! tint
and hides it from its enemies. Many
animals are black. others neutral III
color. Some fish are provided with
boring tails. so that they can burrow

4 goldfish takes IL whole oyster into

meat and elects the shell. Crabs crack
the shells and suck out the meat. This
accounts for whole mounds of shells
that are often found.
Not a tiShbone is ever found that

THE "NtAIDEN SPEECH AGAIN

THE "NIAIDEN SPEECH. AGAIN
BY the way, speaking of doc.
Purcell and his maiden speech about
the deplorable condition of the far
mers in the western part Of this
.tate-no crop in 19o4-no money
made prior to 1907 and then only
n little"-we are reminded that a
dealer out at Beaah the other day
put in an order for $1,000 worth Of
gasoline to be used for gasoline
blowing rigs, Of which there are
some score at work in that section
Of the state busily turning over the
soil for planting.
The settlers out in that section
are 80 anxious to participate in the
losing business Of farming-accord-
ing to the maiden speech"-that the
old methods of blowing with horses
Ia too slow, and steam and gasoline
traction plows-eight< or ten plows
running side by side and turning
over more land than a dozen teams
of horses-are being made use Of al
most to the exclusion Of horses for
large tracts of land.
So it is an interesting piece of in
formation that gasoline is ordered
by the thousand dollars worth to
furnish power to turn over the soil
to plant to wheat and fax to har-
vest next fail to bring golden rain
into the pockets Of the farmers who
arc AZ hard up as doc" Purcell
said in the maiden speech. ~ -
OF. course, If we carried the news
about that gasoline order to DOC"
Purcell, he would insist that it was
making the Standard Oil company
too prosperous-and that for that
reason reprehensible. So We shall
content ourselves with publishing
tho news to the world, and letting
the world Judge whether North Da-
kota farmers are as badly of as we
might think-from the maiden
speech"
