The announcement column Of this
paper this week carries the name Of
J.. Warner stinson, who Is candi-
diate for the office of county survey
OF OF Bryan county, subject to the
Democratic primary August 4th,
1914. Mr.. stinson makes the foi-
lowing statement regarding his can
didacy:
TO THE VOTERS OF BRYAN
COUNTY:
ask your support In the coming
primary election. and promise that
i will show my appreciation by CIV
ing you the best service that ms
training and experience can give.
BY doing the work have been
called upon to do carefully and ac-
curstely / have conscientiously tried
to show my appreciation of the con
fidence that the voters of Bryan
County have manifested in me by
electing me to the office Of County
Surveyor at every election since
Statehood. During this time ] have
come into possession of information
that IS Invaluable to one who intends
doing surveying in this county, and
with the system OF keeping the field
notes Of every survey make am
prepares to give you the best service
possible in subdividing tracts Of the
government survey.
In the capacity of County High
way Engineer have not accomp-
lished anything like what would
like to have done for several rea-
sons: ttl
First, on account of little money
in the road- and bridge fund of ths
county apportionment We have
had so much ground to cover we
have been compelled to construct
Z temporary structures and patch NJ
Z old places in order TO do the mosi
good to the largest number Of peo-
pie, ~
Second, our present road laws are
inadequate. and should be amended
And right here / want to take the
liberty Of advising the voters to make
an urgent request upon all candidates
TOT the Legislature lndt ihey "OIr
for some kind of road law that vii
give better results than the, one VIZ
now have.
The last legislature passed a tol
erably good road law. But the gov
ernor in his wisdom saw fit to vet'
it, for no other excuse than to retaiI
one of his appointees in office, wh'
would have been supplanted by al
experienced man, had the law heel
complied with.
With good road law and aAlittl
better road and bridge fund, I hop
to see some better roads in Bryal
County in the course Of the mex
two years.
Honest service, and a square dea
for all will be my aim in the fu
ture. as 1t has been in the past, !
you nominate me to the office o
County Surveyor at the primary cleo
tion on August the 4th.
Respectfully yours,
L. WARMER STINSON.

CARBON RESOURCES
TREMENDOUSLY BIG
PRODUCT IN DEMAND THROUGH
OUT THE WEST.
No State In the Union Where the
Deposits Are Greatcr or More
vaIuablc--Many New Properties
Being Developed.

The coal resources Of Utah are
being developed by leaps and
bounds. There IA no state in the
union. in all probability. where the
deposits OF coal are greater OF more
valuable than have already been
disclosed In Utah, and the quality
cannot be questioned, says the
April number Of the Salt Lake Min
Ing Review.
There are numerous localities in
the state where coal measurse ex-
ist, but the greatest activity In de
velopment and production prevails
In the eastern portion Of our com
monwealth where convenient trans
portation and favorable conditions
have resulted in the opening up OF
surprising number Of new mines
during the past few years.
II ia not 40 very long ago that
three or four companies. in the Soc
ton mentioned. were practically the
sole operators In the state. and
about the only market they enjoyed
was almost exclusively local. Now.
however. the number OF new pro-
duoers greatly exceeds those which
held prominence there In the early
days and these new companies have
greatly extended the scope Of oper-
ations until today utah coal IL In
earnest demand in nearly every
state In this intcrmountain region
and In the cities and towns OF the
Pacific Coast.
Those who have not visited the
coal measures OF Utah can scarcely
conceive Of their great extent and
magnitude: nor can they even faint
~ realize the importance OF our
coal industry which. next 20 metal
mining. stands out prominently az
permanent source OF revenue and
a most promising opportunity for
investment.

Insurance Notes

The fire insurance premiums OF tho
stock companies In North Dakota Tor

per cent. The hail insurance premiums
were s, ,O79,S ,SlI n reduction of over S4OOOOO,

N~re Sl0,OSe,37b with loss ratio OF Dl "

provides for a commission OF three, com

The fire insurance situation In Kentucky
Is growing steadily worse, according to
reports from various parts OF the state.
II will not become acute until April The
companies not having suspended business
until well into March, practically all eN-
pirations for that month were written up
in advance under the custom of local

REGULATING X-RAY DOSES
Discovery of Method of Adjusting
the Quantity 10 Patients
Condition.

An invention that II is predicted will
revolutionize the use and application Of
the X-ray was exhibited for the first time
In public in New York city recently at
a dinner given at the Hotel St. Denis TO
william David Coolidge OF Schenectady
by DR.. l.. G. Cole OF 1O3 Park avenue
Men versed in the science of the X-ray
who witnessed the demonstration of Mr
Cooldge's invention said that 1t was the
greatest advancement in the study OF the
rays since Roentgen.
Mr.. Coolidge, who Is employed in tho
General Electric company's laboratories
has been working In secret on the new
ray for three years. lie has so far per-
fected but two tubes one OF which he
showed
His method Of manufacturing the ray
differs from the old one and enables him
to secure such efficiency in control and
application that the greatest benefits 10
therapeutics are expected as soon as the
technique OF the ray Is thoroughly under
stood.
The Coolidge ray will not cheaper the
cost OF production any, but 1t will enable
X-ray operators TO control the power they
wish to administer absolutely, whereas
before it was impossible to gauge the
amount that would be generated or to
direct IT,
In the old X-ray tubes the cathode ami
the anode, the terminals, we're Of differ
ent materials. MIR. Coolidge has discoV-
cred that better results are had by the
use OF tungsten throughout and that
ductile tungsten, likewise recent dis
covery. is best for the work. His prog
ress has been retarded by the fact that
the ductile tungsten Is very scarce and
that more must be manufactured before
his ray can be Of general prscticabiiity
The anode in the Coolidge tube is OF
heavy tungsten while the cathode is OF
light tungsten, like the filament in q
tungsten lamp. BY exhausting all the
gases in the tungsten the filaments are
heated to incandescence and the ray is
generated. In the new tube there is no
fluorescene, whereas in the old that OBJ
stacle was met with.
Streams OF charged particles from the
tungsten anode and cathode, which are
heated in the vacuum, are driven by a
powerful electric current and the ray IS
formed. 1t Is more or less penetrating IN
