Col Theodore Roosevelt will stand by
the Progressive cause and will not re-

That was his definite statement yes
terday at Oyster Bay after he returned
with Mrs. Roosevelt from a lively and
pleasurable visit to the Canadian North
west. the American Pacific coast and the
Panama-Pacinc Exposition.
There was no shading OF meaning
whatever In the brief but direct state
ment to which he restricted himself
despite much urging to amplify his
philosophy comes to this Others who are
veering back to the Republican fold after
three years of allegiance to Progressive
principles have a perfect right to do so.
The Colonel feels no anger or resent
ment. That they should weaken after
three years gives him little sorrow. as
his close friends understand. but at
least he feels kindly to them for having
remained steadfast SO long. Here is the
way he expressed himself yesterday:
As regards the Progressives who
have announced their intention Of en-
rolling as Republicans in this State ]

think II has been fine OF them to have
made the great fight they have made
during the past three years for Pro-
gressive principles and | am sure that
they are acting conscientiously in the
step they now take. and with the pur-
pose OF doing what they regard as
most useful to the community.

self to take the step. shall enroll as
Progressive. and II any man in this
: state asks my advice ! shall advise
him also to enroll as Progressive.

ALL RUN BY ELECTRICITY
Labor-savino Devices a Feature OF
House Exhibited at Panama-Pa-
cIfic Exposition.

Electrical labor-saving devices form
one Of the most interesting features Of
the manufacturers exhibits at the Pan
ama-Pacific exhibition. A novelty
shown in this department Is an all
electric house.
Many homes have been built and
adapted to use electricity in as many
ways as possible after construction,
but the house exhibited has had the
various features built in. Each room
is equipped with labor-saving devices
and electrically operated comforts. All
the kitchen machinery, from potato
peelers to the electric refrigerator, is
motor driven.
The dining room is arranged SO as
to show how light lunches can be pre-
pared on electric chatting dishes and
stoves. In the rear of the house there
Is an electric workshop and q garage
equipped with q battery recharging
device for the electric automobile.

NITRATE DEPOSITS OF CHILE
Many Things to Which tho Users OF
the supply Should Give Close
Attention.

The worlds supply OF nitrate, Tor
use In the manufacture Of fertilizers,
explosives and other chemical prod
ucts, Is now derived almost entirely
from the deposits Of sodium nitrate IN
northern Chile. These deposits are
vast, as compared with any probable
future demand and even the best Ell
forts of a close monopoly supervised
by the Chilean government have not
been able to do more than keep output
and prices under some small degree OF
control. In ordinary times the Chilean
deposits can swamp any possible com
petitive supply, and in the past this
has operated to prevent the develop
ment Of small or less well located de-
posts elsewhere.
The Chilean deposits have, however,
one marked defect which is brought
into prominence by the present Euro
pean war; and which would have come
out In still more disastrous form in
case OF a war between the United
States and any power having an active
feet in the Pacific ocean. n defect
is that the distribution Of the output
is entirely by sea, n that tne stedhi-
ers carrying the nitrate must make q
long run along open coasts. We must,
therefore, consider that nitrate. though
the supply is more than ample, Is like
ly to be entirely cut off under war
conditions.
In default of a. supply Of Chilean nj
trate, a country would have to fall
back upon either (a) local or other
supplies of natural potash or soda nj
trates, (b) nitrogen extracted from
the air, or Co nitrates manufactured
from coal tar products. All Of these
are technically feasible, and none are
absolutely prohibitiye as to cost under
war conditions, though in normal times
none of them can at present compete
with the Chilean supply.-Engineering
