"Motor Horse"

When a North Dakota inventor
bitches up his motor horse he en-
joys sensation altogether unusual.
1t was first driven about the streets
of Grand Forks and consists essential
ly of IA motor wheel pivoted between a
pair of sleight runners, the rim of The
wheel being equipped with studs, or
spikes, which furnish rapid traction
on either snow or ice. The driver
may stand on skis or be seated on a
sled or toboggan from IL to Is feet
behind the horse being drawn along
by two ropes, while other lines serve
for starting, stopping, steering and
regulating the speed. The complete
machine weighs 81 pounds. A special
gasoline motor is built within and
geared directly to the driving wheel.
At one time a distance of 1913 miles
through deep snow was covered in
three hours and twelve minutes, With
the driver on skis. Under more faV-
orable conditions much greater speeds

Nickel In the United States.

During the general stocktaking
which has been going on in the United
States during the last year many
questions as to the country's resources
in nickel have been asked. The Am
erican nickel deposits are small COM
pared with the unrivalled deposits at
Sudbury, Canada, but they have in the
past made some production, and will
probably do so again. Nickel I'D
quantities sufficiently large to incite
attempts to exploit the deposits on a
commercial scale has been found in
California, Colorado, Connecticut, Ida
no, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico,
North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
Virginia, and Washington under very
diverse conditions, and smaller depo-
sits have been found in other states.

OIL AND FlOTATION.
Better Results Obtained BY Using
larger Proportions Of Oil.

In most important ruling in the
case of the Minerals Separation COM
pany against the Butte & Superior
company, Judge Bourquin yesterday
morning overruled the objection rails
ed by the attorneys of the former com
pany relating the "estoppel" un Ter
section 3, 10 and IL of the former de-
eision as ruled on by the United States
supreme court.
Judge Bourquin's decision clears the
way entirely for the introduction of
all evidence that the Butte 4 Superior
and other companies have collected in
the past three years which was not
permitted in the case that was ca
ried before the supreme court and de-
cided last December.
From the testimony introduced yes
terday, it is evident that nearly every
one of the large mining companies in
the United States, where oil flota-
ton process is in operation and where
no arrangement to pay royalties to
the Minerals Separation company
have been made, have been conduct
ing experiments on a colossal scale
for the past four months to show the
operation of the system, with more
than / per cent of Oil to the ton of
ore and with less than that amount.
The energies of the metallurgcal
departments of the Utah Copper COM
pany, the Chino Copper company, the
Ray Copper company the Nevada
Consolidated Copper company, the
Butte & Superior Mining company, as
well as several other large reduction
companies, have been directed almost
exclusively to the problems that have
been rased by the controversy over
the patents and the decision of the
supreme court in the Hyde case.
Ralph Conrads, metalurigist in
charge of the Magma plant Of the Utah
Copper company, testified that from
December rs to March "a the average
amount of oil used per ton of ore
was 22.1S pounds. When these re-
suits were compared with the result
of tests using less than that amount
of oil and conducted from March %
to April 2, it showed that vastly bet
ter results We're secured with the use
of the greater amount of oil compared
with the lesser.

Irvine From Paper.

That wrapping twines which give
thorough satisfaction can be made
from paper has been demonstrated
by experiments made by the forest
products laboratory at Madison, Wis.
Several hundred packages, each con-
tanning a medium sized book, were
wrapped and fastened with the light
est weight paper Irvine and were
mailed to variousp oints throughout
the United States. Reports show that
practically every package was receiv-
ed in good order. and that in no case
was there any damage which could
be charged as fault of the Irvine. In
making Irvine, the paper is cut into
narrow strips, which are then twist
ed tightly to form a cord. The
strength of the twin depends on the
character of the paper used and the
process of treatment. 1t is we'll
adapted to a number of purposes, but
the foresters say that as yet no sat
isfactory means has been found for
protecting paper twince from the ac-
ton of water, and it should not be
used where it, will be exposed to
moisture.

The Kaiser Stands Alone.

The kaiser faces the dismenoer-

the end of a personal power that mas
for many years threatened civilization
with the present war. He Is ahotner
of the long line of reactionary figures
who have taken the feudal doctrines
of the middle ages and tried to drive
back the irresistible growth of indi-
vidual rights and human liberty.
George III. was a small character ana
stupid. Napoleon the First was a
magnificent tyrant. Napoleon the
Third was schemng and petty. But
none of these, though they lived In
supposedly less civilized times, ever
descended to the inhuman and the
constituencies beliefs and practices
which the kaiser has adopted to reach
his ends. In modern times he stands
alone of all rulers, either of those VINO

oneonta Will Erect
 Monument to Ingram

A MOVEMENT has been started &A at Oneonta, Ala, to raise funds for a monument to Osmond Kelley Ingram, the Alabama boy who was the first victim during actual combat of Americas war with Germany. Ingram's home was in Pratt City, part of Birmingham, but he was born and reared at Oneon. ta and patriotic citilens of the town will erect monument to him in the place of his birth.
 James B. Sloan is chairman of the executive committee, L. Q. Box is secretary, and Prof. T. c. Moore, we'll known throughout Alabama as an educator, is treasurer. Contributions will be welcome from any part of the state. The more money that is re- ceived, the more imposing the Ingram monument will be, and surely there is none who does not deem it fitting that the memory of this brave lad be kept green. He was the forerunner of many other American boys who will sacrifice their lives for the sake of liberty and democracy.
 Contributions may be sent to either one of the three gentlemen named above, at Oneonta.

Proving Again There's
 Nothing in a Name

A SUIT for damages has been A brought against the Demo- crat Publishing company of Madi- son, Wis, and it's editor by Senator LaFollette. He claims that editorials,
 news articles and other matter pub- lished in the paper made it appear
 that he was giving aid and comfort to
 Germany.
 The senator has singled out one
 lone newspaper to sue, when he knows
 and everybody else in this country who reads newspapers knows that hundreds of editorials have been written in which "Pompadour Bob" was handled without gloves. Probably acting on the theory that damage suits
 should begin at home, he has taken on the Madison Democrat for his initial battle in the courts. If he tried to sue all the newspapers that have published statements about his pro- German and unpatriotic attitude, and
 the men who have taken delight in writing articles directed against a p,ap uho ahuSad his hiph office and was to all intents and purposes an enemy to his country, he would never Hive long enough to complete the un- |dertaking.

THE ROMANCE OF SHUTS

From the Montgomery Journal.
 Nearly two decades ago. when Great Britain was fighting the Boer war; there was no more valiant and aoie leader of the South African Dutch than Jan Christian Shuts. When the com bat was over and England the victor. one of the men who, like Botha, labored hard to bring about real arnity between the British and the Boers was this same Shuts.
 Just as Botha rose to be premier or the new British united colony, so Shuts rose to be cabinet minister, par = liamentary leader, and one of the direc- tors of the armed forces in South Ar rica. When the present war broke out, 1t was Shuts who took command Of the British forces in South Africa and ad- ministered stinging defeats to the Ger mans and to the few treacherous Boer bands. He has since been called to Lon don, where, as a member of the King s priyy council and the British war cab met, he has been one of the great directing forces of the British empire s part in the world conflict.
 And now they are talking of him as the leading probability for command er-in- chief or general director of all the allied forces, if such post is ere ated.
 This constitutes one of the most TO- mantle careers in modern history. It is a far cry from the pale-faced "Janny' Shuts who was a young advocate in South Africa. And by the same token it is sample of generosity that seems especially prevalent in Anglo Saxon countries.
 Great Britain has heaped honors upon its one-time foe. just as the United States delighted to honor men who were at one time southern leaders in our great Civil war. Democracies have always found that generosity to big men of sound timber pays.

 There is good prospect indeed Of seeing the auditorium in course of erection during the year 1918. Such a consummation would be of incalcu- lable credit to Birmingham. That all philosophical citizens will be ready to cooperate with the commission in this important undertaking goes with out saying.
