cite and Wyoming counties. They
also report that the Republican guber-
Material candidateput more pep" than
usual into his speeches, replying to the
Democratic campaign managers, hurl-
ing defiance at them, and making few
counter charges on the enemy.
The most conspicuous example OF a
get-together meeting was the one held
at Beckley, Raleigh county, the home
of Attorney General Lilly. 1t was a
big affair, according to one who Wit
messed it. The crowd was large and it
was enthusiastic. 1t was presided over
by DR.. Suthpin, who was one OF GEN
eral Lilly's managers in the primary
contest, and probably ninety per cent
of the audience was Slade up of en-
thusiastic supporters of Mir. Lilly, who
seemed to be just as enthusiastic sup
porters Of Judge Robinson now. Raj
eigh is right for Robinson, according 10
reports brought here by men fresh
from that county.
Candidate Robinson. replying to his
Democratic critics. connected up the
associations of ex-senator C. W. Wat
son and Candidate Cornwell closely.
He charged that Marion county was
being systematically colonized by the
Democratic managers, and laid before
his audience his views of wisconsin"
which were none too complimentary.
That Judge Robinson should make the
vigorous kind of speeches which he is
reported to have delivered down-state
last week occasioned no surprise
among the states politicians here.
They had expected it, for it was APP
parent to them that the Democratic
opposition was unintentionally, per-
haps, inviting it.

Artificial Silk.

Making artificial silk from saw dust and other lumber waste is the latest experiment of the United States forest products laboratory at, Madison, Wis. according to the Boston Transcript. The use of artificial silk made recently from wood is increasing by leaps and bounds. Originally it's principal use was in the manufacture of braids and trimmings, but recently the manufacture of hose from arti- ficial silks has become an industry of vast importance.
 Other uses for artificial silk are woven goods of all kinds. lining, tapestries, neckties, sweater coats, ribbons. etc. About 5.5OOO,OOO pounds of artificial silk are used annually in the United States.

ed increases. The output of coal in 1915 in Sebastian county, L. l53,4o4 tons, was the lowest since 1900 and is 100000 tons less than in 1907, the record year for the field. The advance in the orice of fuel oil late in 1915. if continued, will probably have the fleet of increasing the use of Ar ,ansas coal and assist the state to
 ecover to some extent the mark .ts that have been lost within late years.
 There were 5,751 men employed in and about the coal mines of Ar kansas in 1915, who worked for an average of l49 days, as compared with 4.359 men for 145 days in 1914.

Eradicate the Hicks.

According to government re- ports. the average value of cattle in infested states, of which Arkansas is one. was only $25 30 on the first day of last January. as compared with an average of $48 - 41 for the rest of the country. This is the condition which the tick-eradieation campaign now in progress over the greater part of the state is endeavoring to over come. Ticky cattle weigh less and are worth less per pound, and can not be sold on the open market, but must be disposed of in quarantine pens for immediate slaughter only. Experience has shown that almost invariably the disappearance of the tick is accompanied by an improve ment in the quality, and an in crease in the eountry's live stock. The opposition that has been shown in some sections of Arkan-

Bduxite and Aluminium.

The bauxite and aluminium in- dustries in the United States had Q. banner year in 1915. The pro- duetlon of bauxte was 29Z ,O4l long tons, valued at $1,514.854 an increase of zz,z25 long tons, or 55 per cent in quantity. and of $445, $40. or Al per cent in value compared with 1914, according to statement issued by the United States geological survey. This abnormally large increase in baux= ite production is due to the greatly increased activity in the aluminium industry. The quantity of foreign bauxite used during the year was exceedingly small, for obvious reasons, and out of total com sumption of more than 100000 tons only slightly more than l per cent was imported. Arkansas pro duced more than 90 per cent of the domestic production and Geor- gia, Alabama and Tennessee con- tributed the remainder.
 In spite of the fact that the me- tallic aluminium consumed in the United States in 1915 amounted to 9o, 100000 pounds, there was great scarcity of the metal in this country, especially during the latter part of the year, according to information gathered by w. c. Phalen, of the geological survey. A greatly increased demand, to- gether with the curtailment of im- ports, were the chief causes of this scarcity.
 The applications of the metal have been many in the war in Eu- rope. Light aluminium alloys have been largely employed, and the metal itself has found favor in camp equipment and especially in the manufacture of automobile bodies and air craft of all kinds. Aluminium powder has been ex- tensively used in making ammonal, high explosive, by mixing it with ammonium nitrate. The explosive is reported to be insensitive, very stable and destructive.
