A great many people are wondering
why the Democratic county conven-

not been called. The reason is that
there Is a hitch over the way it shall
be called and where it shall assemble.
’I‘hc Bridgeport i’ost prints the fol-

'l‘hc bitch is not surprising consider-
ing that It is the outcome of that
county convention of four years ago,
which was nothing but hitches. At
the very preparation the shadow of
that famous gathering has brooded ov—
2r this year's convention. and the In—
dications are that it will be as warm
as the one which Newtown will never
forget.
When It came time to think about
calling the convention this year some
nqulrics were made and a cu’rlous
situation was disclosed. It seems—mt
least, so the minutes of that famous
.tonvcntion disclose—that the method
if calling the convention and mauug»
ng county matters are changed. No-
body rcmcmbers anything about it. it
was apparently lost sight of in the
generally strenuous times existing.
Under the old system existing up to

SOFT COAL CAN BE BURNED.
Ex-Mayor Edwin Adams Tells How to
Use It In Hunter and Range.
Editor Evening Sentinel: Referring
to your article In Saturday's Sentinel.
under the head of “Scheme Face Hard,
Problem." it is my opinion the problem
should have been so ved about twenty
years. ago In the Franklin street
school, when the steam heating system
was first introduced there, by the use
of soft coal, and that fifty per cent. of
the cost of fuel would have been saved
for the whole time. It is the only
steam plant I know of that has been
run with hard coal. it Is also my opin-
Ion that soft coal can be used In all
our school buildings, without any
change In apparatus, and while the
same advantages cannot be eXDiKlted In
the other buildings, as the Franklin
building, as the system of heating Is
different, the buildings can be heated
with soft coal, and at a considerable
less cost, even when the price of coal
is normal.
After two years of experience with
burning soft coal In my home. both In
my heater and range. with the result
that fifty per cent. of the cost of fuel
has been saved andlflfty per cent. of
the labor of taking care of my heater.
and otherwise satisfactory results. I
may be able to offer some suggestions
to the general public that may Interest
them, as We all have to face about the
same problem as the schools.
I believe there Is no apparatus now
being used to burn hard cool that will
not burn soft coal without any change.
As to methods, the first and most
important condition is to get rid of our
prejudices and not accept our neigh—
bor‘s. Second, use no dampers in your
smoke pipes, but keep a free passage
frotn your tire. through the chimney. i
regulate the draft of my heater by the
lower draft, and opening'or closing the
door. The. draft of the range by the
lower draft and opening or closing a
lid on top of the range. You can get
no smoke, gas or other offensivcncss,
so long as your smoke pipe is clear. As
almost cvcryonc's apparatus and
methods are different, the rest must be
learned by our own cxpcricncc. It is
better to have the cool a little damp.
