OF discussion at TIE convention OF
the National Wool Growers asso-

growers claiming that any downward
revision of the tariff will cause the
ruin of profitable industry in the
United States and personal loss of
millions of dollars to the members of
the association
1t is felt by the wool men that
their side of the case has never been
presented to the public fairly and
they charge that the agitation that
has arisen against them is due to the
efforts of political muckrakers and
mudslingers. They point to a letter
from Secretary of Agriculture Will
son to George S. Walker of the
Wool Growers association as ind
cative of the Importance with which
the wool industry o. the United
States is viewed in official circles.
Secretary Wilson says in part:
81 do not think it would be wise
to have legislation by congress det-
rimental to the wool interests of
the country. The Developments OF
the sheep industry should be encour-
aged not retarded
Secretary Walker states that CIV.

a means of bringing the wool sitda

LAMPS FOR MINERS
Electric Bulbs viii Prevent Ex-

Miners Old NAKED" Light VIII Be
supers.dsa by Modern Electric
Light Operated by Pocket
Storage Battery.

CMcago.-The assertion that the
time is fast approaching when naked
lights in coal mines will be absolutely
abolished is made by writer. A few
years ago, he says, there were prac.
tically no safety light mines in Amer
lea; today there are large number of
mines using safety lights exclusively
in all of their underground work. The
chief objection to safety lamps Is
due almost entirely to their poor light.
Acetylene has been tried, but it Is
dangerous. Electricity is the hope Of
the future, and he gives an account
of a newly invented miners lamp that
Is fed by electric current from peck
ct storage battery. This battery, we
are told, is as handy as an oil cantean
and 1t Is as unbreakable, being "ar-
mor-clad" with sheet steel. The charg-
ing rack is so arranged that the bat
terry Is left in it on the way out SO
that the miners use their batteries
in the same way as the checks employ
ed as timekeepers. BY looking at the
rack given miners presence or alb
sence can be told at once, as the bat
teries are all numbered to correspond
with their users.
Wet mines will not affect the lamp,
as the body is made of aluminium and
is waterproof. Furthermore, the body
Of the lamp is filled with a special
composition, making 1t possible to use
the light under water.
The voltage of the lamp being only
two volts, 1t is claimed that there is
no danger of any sparks at the time
the contact Is broken in any part of
the device; as consequence, 1t is
said to be impossible to cause an ex-
plosion In gas mixture In recent
tests, the globe used in the lamp was
purposely broken in a body of gas, to
ascertain if. when the globe breaks,

Der are variously estimated at from

when they joined his army he would
restore to them all their lands as
soon as peace was established.
The land in question is included in
the tract of 100000 acres belonging to
a construction company, and was ac-
q,hred by this company by purchase
in part from the federal government
under a concession granted some six
years ago for the irrigation and colo
nization Of the land.
The company has constructed about
100 miles of irrigating canals, bring.
ing water from the Yaqui river, and
about three years ago placed a por-
ton OF the land On the market and
sold about $4,000 acres, mostly to Los
Angeles people, and a number of
families have settled on the
land and improved it.

Mexico City, Mex.-The return OF
the Yaqui Indians, now held in slav'

their homes in Sonora, is provided for
in q preliminary agreement reached
at Hermosillo, between the leaders or
the Yaquis and Vice Governor Guyon,

Of the revolution. The agreement also
stipulates that the contiscated lands
Of the Yaquis in northern Mexico
shall be given back to them.
The Yaquis promise to keep peace
and protect the lives and property OF
both Mexican citizens and foreigners
Adherence to this pledge means the
cessation Of bloody war that has
been waged for years between the In
dians and the Diaz government, and
which has resulted in the loss OF
thousands of lives and millions OF
dollars.

The average estimated light OF the
bulb used in the lamp is from 200 to
300 hours, orNin other words about
the same as the average commercial
incandescent lamp. The life of the
battery is one or two years.
AS shown by the accompanying cut,
there is a hook by which the lamp can
be attached to the cap the same as an
old lamp; when used this way, the
rings shown on the cable. can
be attached to the back Of cap and
shirt, If desired, either with an
ordinary safety-pin or by stSching.
However, experience has shown that
the miners prefer to hook the
lamp on their shirt fronts or other
parts of their clothing.
The advocates of this style of light
claim numerous advantages: l. No
danger of igniting gas or possibility
OF an accident while handling powder.
2. The light cannot be blown out by
a windy shot or gust Of air. 3. They
save much time that is lost in picking
up and filling oil and carbide lamps.
4. There Is no oil or dirt to grease
the hands and clothes. which is a
great advantage, especially to engi-
neers and others who have to hardle
papers and instruments. 5. 4 costs
less to use the lamp than 1t docs %
use an ordinary oil or carbide light. G..
The air in the mine will be clear and
