CONVENTION CALL.
To the Republican Electors of Pennsylvania!
After consultation and correspondence with
the members of the Republican State Committee,
and by their direction, I hereby aloe notice that
j i the Republicans of Pennsylvania, by their duly
sliosen representatives, will meet in State Con-
, venlton at Ilarrlsburg, Wednesday, August 19,
i 1891, at 10 o'clock A. II., for the purpose ofplac
1 ing in nomination candidates for the offices of
State Treasurer and Auditor General, for the
nomination of eighteen candidates for Delegates'
at-Ltrgi At the Constitutional Convention pro-
i tided for in the Act of Assembly approved June
it, ,19, 1891, and for the transaction of such ether
tffkbustness as may be presented.
ijT- Notice j especially directed to the fact that, in
accordance with the provisions of the last men
tioned act, each Senatorial district is entitled to
a representation of three delegates in said Con
stitutional Convention, two of whom only canbe
members of the majority party in said district.
The electors of each district are therefore re-
' quested to make proper nominations for dele
gates to said convention, the rules governing the
' itn(na(07i of candidates for State Senator to
. be applicable.
In this connection the Chairman desires to call
the attention of Republican voters to the recom
mendation of the State Convention of 1832, that
"they allow the greatest freedom in the general
participation in the primaries consistent with
the preservation of the party organisation."

"HIDE-BOUND" HYPOOEITE.
In one of Its columns ou Tuesday
the Pottsville Itcpvbt'can said :
"It is the duty of the Republicans
to turn iu and support the liuivet niado
by their representatives. Hide-bound
party men have no right to kick. JSfeu
who go to conventions aud men who
are candidates before a convention, if
honest, will submit (o the will of the
majority of that convention. "
And in another column of tho same
issue the following sentiment was ex
pressed ;
"Tho ticket as nominated-to-day is
first-class with one exception, that of
Mr. Heffner. aud we cannot
(support a candidate for any cfllce
; whose- record is that of an incom
petent." The comparison is an amusing oue
at least, but to thoso who have watched
Schuylkill politics it Is more than

NOW FOR WORK,
The Republican county convention
held In Pottsville Tuesday was one of
the most hnrnio'nloua over held in the
county. Bound judgment prevailed
and the delegates buried all dlfleronoes,
looking only to the welfare of the
party. The ticket nominated is a
strong and clean one. It Is now in
order for tho Republicans of the county
to organize. The cry henceforth
should be "shoulder to shoulder for
victory" and with u long pull, a strong
pull, and a pull altogether, the whole
ticket can bo elected. Let tho Re
publicans stand guard and watch the
Democrats as the enemy. Baware I
The snake in the gras3 is already at
work and the enemy protends to
gloat over the fact that all the nomi
nees are from south of the mountain.
The Republicans should not heed such
allusions. No north or south, but one
united Schuylkill for Republican
victory.
Schuylkill la a Republican county,
as will bo shown by the returns next
November if the Republicans stand
by their colors.
Tliis is n test year and if harmony is
not secured by the Republicans on the
present basis it never will be.
There is no possible excuse for.auy
Republican to bolt the ticket. All
tho nominees are men of ability and
merit, and are fully entitled to a
strong vote.
Step to the line of harmony aud
work with a will for tho whole ticket,
disregarding all differences of tho past
aud with one object in view the re
demption of Schuylkill.

THE WILLIAMS PRIZE ESSAY
An Expert's Vlowa Regarding
Ventilation, the Use of Lamps
and a Dleousoion on tho
DuBt Theory.
The IIeeai.tj to-day preionla to its
readers tho second and last part of ttio
troalito prepared by Divis'on tiuperiulon
dent John L. AVilllatus, of town, for tho
piizo competition arranged by The Pilts
bvrg Times on tho boet means for avoid'tig
mino disasters.
Of tho 272 papers submitted on tho sub
ject but four were rocommondod for pub
lication by tho commUteo and below it
published tho second partof Air. Williams'
paper, which was ono of tho four:
PAKT IL-Lamps.
In a gaseous mino tho miner carries his
lifo in his hand. lie is defoncoiojs and
open to bo carried into otornity without tho
slightest warning if not provided with a
good aud roliablo safely lamp, a lamp that
has boon subject to tho eovorest tests and
has stood thorn. Tnero aro lamps in use
that can to rolled upon, as far as construc
tion and principle are concerned. Tho
lamp should ho protected from too high a
volocity of air, as dancer is imminent wnon
tho flamo piercos Iho gauzo. It is not al
together from a defective lamp that mino
disasters havo originated, hut from tho care
less and indlfforont use made of them. In
the first place, tho lock ol the safely lamp
should bo so constructed as to defy a person
to Itmper with it thafmn.lil--.njt lead to
detection. Hut a greater evil exists when
illiterate and inexperienced persons aio
onfiaged who really do not know tho dau
Ker that envelops thorn. Hero is tho point
that should be pressod homo. The minors,
as a rulo, aro an educated class, but it can
not ho disputod that thero aro a number of
miners who need educating in tho lit'.lo
duties and responsibilities that daily attend
tho full, practical and safe execution of
their work. "Whore blowors of gas aro ex
pectod. suddenly or havo occurred, a safely
lamp should bo provided that would surely
hi extinguished by tho presonco of gas in
side tho gauz3. Any ono found to have
tampered with his lamp should bo instantly
dismissed, and prosecuted according to law.
VEK'J'II,A"'tON.
This is no doubt tho most important
feature of a successful mino. By tho word
successful, I moan the mino which is prac
tically frco from all disasters that can bo
ascribed to tho insufficient circulation of
air. It is almost as impracticable to float a
boat without water, as to imagino that n
gaseous mino can bo successfully oporated
free of disasters without tho aid of a sound
systom of ventilation. Very often tho
quantify of air to eitculato through a new
mino is arrivod at and based upon mathe
matical inferences or theoretically, which
is not always reliable. It is dosirablo
sometimes to take into consideration tho
condition of adjacent mines, wotked under
similar circumstances. Whenever such a
basis is taken to work upon, care should bo
taken to allow, sufficient' margin. Tho
ventilating power should bo augmented.
Then there aro no risks. Tho fan engine
should bo regulated to meot difl'eront con
ditions, as it Is not always policy to havo
too strpng a current of air, Tbo minor's
comfort commands our' evory considera
tion. I know of instances whero tho ven
tilating current is bo strong that it im
pregnates tho oyos aud nostrils with dust,
making it very uncomfortable Experi
ments aro numerous when, ovon after
watering tho roadway, tho current bos
been so strong, togolhor with tho naturi)
heat of the mine, as to make it impossible
to kcop tho dust down.
THE DUST TUKORY.
The theory advanced in support of the
argument that coal dutt has been known to
originate an explosion, I givo no credoneo.
All my oxporienco provos to mo that tho
explosion is only aggravated, intensified
and elongated, which is sufficient to impress
upon us tho importance of paying particu
lar attention to tho mattor of keeping tho
dust down. By sections of pipos laid down
tho wholo length of tho main roadways,
with jets at regular distances, tbo water is
thrown out at regular intervals, and thu
tho roadways aro always kopt damp. The
distribution of air Into splits cannot be too
highly approved of, as each section of men
rocolvo an adenuato quantity of pure air,
and it is not charged with tho air that men
havo Inhaled in other sections of the mine.
Each spilt of air is carried direet to the
return and then to the upoast, Oases very
often occur whero explosive gases exist In
small quantities, that tho miner is provided
with a safety lamp to delect the presenoe
of gas in his own working faoe, whero it
sometimes, generates while ha might be
called away for a few minute at a timo.
Tho fire boss examines during his proscribed
time. This practlco of giving a miner a
safety lamp together with his naked light
"is absurd." That Is whero explosive gas
is found.
tnotr claims.
Every year fresh ovldonccs aro chron
icled in the mino Inipector's reports whero
mon discard tho safety lamp, or accom
panled thoir safety lamp with a naked light,
thus ondangorlng tho lives of hundrods of
mon. Anything that is dono in a slipshod
manner or by halvos should be dono away
with. If good rosults aro to accruo, then
radical changes and Improvements must bo
expected. All old and abandonod work
ings, that cannot bo hermetically sealed,
should bo kopt thoroughly ventllatod and
inspectod at least onco a week by tho In
side foreman or bis atslstants, and a correct
report of the condition of tho samo bo kopt
in the rooord book at tho colliery ofHco for
tho inspection of the mino inspector, and a
copy sent to tho district superintendent.
Thoro should bo u duplicate, fan kept at
oach and evory colliery. In caso anything
happens to ono fan, tho other could bo put
in motion in a few minutes. I would also
suggost that all fans should bo so con
structed that they could bo changed in a
short sptco of tim? from an exhaust to a
propalling fan and vice vorsa. If so ob
structed tho air currents could bo changod
in a short time in cases of fires or oxplo
eions, Thus great disaster could bo
averted. I would also suggosl that tho air
courpos bo of largo dimensions, so that
large quantilios of air could bo propelled
through at a slow volocity. This would in
crease tho ventilating current, by diminish
ing tho. friction. Evory attention Ehould
bo paid to maintain thoso air coursos at any
cost, In a first-class manner.
It Is prepostorous to presume that any
thing short of strict surveillance, careful
and systematic management, and a sound
system of ventilation, can prevent our
hearths and homes being bosieged and pen
etrated by talos of woe, of horrible oxplo
sions, and consequent desolation.
