ELECTION DAY AT HAND.

The stress OF other matters, important
as they are, should not cause the votel E
Of Barre to forget that they have an an
nual duty of great magnitude to per-
form tomorrow, the duty Of going to
the polls and there giving expression TO
their desires on important local policies
directly and on policies indirectly through
the selection Of candidates who repre-
sent their beliefs and convictions. Two
thousand persons are eligible to vote in
the annual municipal election and of that
number the returns should show that
three-fourths performed their duty as
citizens, allowing, of course, for cer-
tain percentage who were unable to be
at the polls through illness, absence from
the city or other good excuses. The
single issue Of saloons or no saloons
should OF itself command the voting Of
every eligible voter who is able to 60 to
the polling places; and, in addition TO
that, there are other incentives TO a large
turnout. So let the voters make earnest
effort to cast their ballots tomorrow.

A PROPOSED COUNTY TAX.

Before the state of Vermont, through

ty 10 policy OF expanding a considerable
sum Of money on the county jail az
Montpelier, the proposition should be
most thoroughly examined and the 20

would raise approximately $4,000, as the

the citizens Of ward 5 that their esteem

On all questions pertaining TO the well
fare OF the trades union movement he
has had first interest, and lived up
fully to the confidence reposed in him

IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES.
Have Been Made in Oil Industry Of the
United States

1
Washington, d. c., March 1.-Two dis
coveries, both of vast Importance Il
American industries and one regarded
also as priceless military asset, were
announced yesterday by Secretary Ian,
Of the interior department They are
chemical processes, developed after year;
of research by DIR. Walter f. Rittman
chemical engineer of the bureau Of
mines. One is expected to enable oil
lrefiners to increase their output of gas
oline by 200 per cent; and the other
makes possible the production from
crude petroleum of toluol and benzol
bases OF dyes and high explosives, for
which in the past the United States and
the rest OF the world has depended al
most exclusively upon Germany.
Dr. Rittman has applied for patents
upon his processes to prevent the pos
sibility of any monopoly in their use
and will dedicate them to the American
people
"These processes" said Secretary Lane
yesterday, "are fraught with the ut
most Importance. The Standard Oil com.
pany has had a big advantage over the
independents in production OF gasoline,
having patented process obtaining
three times the amount OF gasoline from
a given quantity OF petroleum than the
dependents now obtain. Independent pro-
ducers as whole have never been able
10 approach these results Now the fed
eral government, through the efforts Of
DR.. Rittman, proposes 10 make for the
use Of all a process confidently expected
TO increase their yields OF gasoline fully
200 per cent, and perhaps more. Dr. Ritz
man claims bis process is safer simpler
and more economical, These are econom-
&c factors Of great Importance.
with a steadily increasing demand
for gasoline for automobiles. motor boats
and engines. this fortunate discovery
comes at the proper time II was but
two years ago that the automobile in
dustry, fearful the supply of gasoline
might not be adequate for its rapidly
expanding business offered 100000
Tor a substitute that would cost less
than gasoline This new process adds
10 the hope that in spite OF the wonder
full growth in the use OF gasoline there
may not be any shortage in the future.

those OF wealth, but also 20 the hundreds

il Is realized that the gasoline industry

You are mistaken about crediting such
a statement to this paper, neighbor, be-
cause we did not say it. We do recall
reading the assertion in the paper OF
some contemporary. but cannot recall
now what paper it was. There may be,
as you intimate, some doubt about the
foundation for such positive and sweep
ing assertion.

nent-the dye industry-and also prom
ises indirectly measure Of national
safety of incalculable import. Among
the necessary ingredients of high ex-
plosiyes, tounol and benzol are in the
first rank. Heretofore these products
have been mainly obtained in England
and Germany from coal tar Explosives
manufacturers have had TO depend
largely on these sources. The federal
government now proposes to obtain tou-
uol and benzol from crude petroleum.
These products can be produced from
practically any American petroleum. The
supply can be made sufficient not only
for entire American trade but also for
other purposes and at reasonable cost.
The real comforting thing, however,
is that in time Of great national stress
if the nation is ever called upon to de-
fend itself, we will be able TO manufac-
ture the most efficient and most power
full explosives known in war. Were it
not for this discovery it is possible that
in such an emergency, we might be COM
PEELED to rely largely on greater inferior
explosives and this would spell national
disaster
Or Rttman concludes from his ex.
periments that this process may become
more economical than German methods
and it may. result in eventually giving
the United States supremacy in the
dyestuirs industry that has for some
time belonged to Germany. II would
tend 10 prevent disturbance OF the great
industries engaged in the manufacture
of silks, cotton and woolens in such ex-
traordinary times as we are now expert
encing.
