tin is contained in graphite bulb much
as you would contain mercury in a glass
tube in mercury thermometer The tube
up which the melting tin rises is an open
system Of graphite. Readings are made
by lowering the plunEer with a metal of
a high melting point at the lower end.
this metal making electrical contact
with the rising tin, closing n circuit.
Readings are then made in one or two
ways. If you would want to know

would set the pointer on the scale at
1900 deg. Cent. When the tempeN-
ture is reached a buzzer or any loi.e
of electrical alarm, is set into opera
ton. To find the temperature az any
time the pointer is lowered on the
scale until the alarm rings. The possi-

true temperature of the tin at the
time.

out in an address yesterday before
the international Woman Suffrage
Alliance, in Geneva. Switzerland.
that this country has been left be-
hind by monarchial Europe In the
fight for woman suffrage.
Mrs. Gait addressed the re-
Gently enfranchised delegates from
Holland, Sweden and other Euro

TT was President Wilson who
wrote Germany that the United

of peace until that country should
establish a democracy which would
represent the will of the people.
and now Germany has outstripped
all other nations in recognizing the
principle of equality" Mrs. Gait

Labor After Reins in England,
To Wrest Justice from the
Plutocrat, DeclareLeader

NJ. p, secretary of the National
Federation Of Labor, gave me sum-
maries of the labor program.
''The parliamentary machine Is
the weapon we will employ" said
Clynes. I'VE advocate the neces-
sity of getting hold Of what must
be the chief objective of the, labor
movement. The power to get pos
session of that machine Is within
reach of the workers now. Fight
ing, strikes and revolutionary
phrases will never accomplish the
emancipation of labor.
THE parliamentary franchise
confers all power needed. II work.
ingmen cannot appreciate this, we
must go on educating them until
they do.
"Profiteering Is entirely respon-
sible for the present horrible unrest
! in the labor world and 1t will be
necessary for organized labor to
stop it-but only by constitutional
means. Let the workers send their
representatives to Parliament in
stead of the capitalistic exploiter
and the present system will soon
crumble.
Oppose Minority Force.
I'VE cannot be a party to joining
with the cooperative movement
which seeks to bring force TO peaI
by a minority against the unwill-
ingness OF the majority. We pre-
fer to wait until the willingness de-
velops naturally"
Labor has one definite goal"
said o'Grady. "and that is to get
control of the parliamentary ma
chine by constitutional and not vio-
lent means. when labor gets con-
troll, capitalism will find it's level
and democracy come into its own.
We must find means OF consolidat-
ing labor internationally. 1t is only
through that channel that we can
secure the peace Of the world.

The rural credit bill before the

provides for the establishment of a

security. 1t is an adaptation of the
best features of the European sys-

of the proposed system to the use

from the system of banking with

paper, reducing the expenses of
management and improving our
whole banking on credit system.
"The bill provides for one central
bank, forty-eight branches. one for
each State. and innumerable local
or communes. The CEN
tral bank will have capital of
s25,000,000. with a sinking fund
created to reimburse the govern
