SOME EASTMAN SHIPS

The pending naval appropriation bill
contemplates the construction of four
new war ships, the largest of which is to
be an armored vessel of $500 tons dis
The other thrse are TO lie unsrmored, two
of them of 5000 tons each, to be guaran.
teed TO make at least nineteen knots and
the third of $500 tons displacement, to
be capable of a twenty knot rate of speed.
The objection has been raised that it
is easier to talk about building war yes
sells capable of q speed of from seven
teen TO twenty knots than to build them.
But unarmored vessels that make this ex-
ceedingly fast time are not unknown.
| Italy, France and England have several
vessels each of this class asd more build
ing. OF armored vessels that can make
! seventeen knots, Russia has oae OF 5,796
tons displacement and Austria another of
| $3.50 tons. England has five srmored
vessels that eau make eighteen knots and
two more building. Most of the twenty
knot vessels belonging TO the European
nsvies are small, it is true, designed for
use as torpedo boats, but there seems to
be no good reason why large vessel can
not be driven as fast as a small one. In
view of what has been done by otteI
nations III the way of building war YES.
sells of hgih rate of speed there is little
doubt that the four new AmSrican vessel:
will be fully up to the specifications ir
this pece. American ship builders are
not in the habit of getting left by those
of any country in the matter of speed
Armor that will protect and guns of th'
proper projeotile power are likely to b'
more difficult of attainment than ship:
that can make the requisite speed to pu
them on an equality with the fastest nov
In existence. But, even the guns ana tn,
armor are likely to be forthcoming il
good time.

a pair when the vote on the tariff bill
should be taken, as he would vote again st
the bill. He was distinctly opposed to
the bill in question. Applause on the
Republican side greeted the reading of
the letter.
The previous question was then order
ed on the final passage of the bill and
the role call was begun. When an oc-
casiOnal member voted apparently
against his politica. faith the announce.
ment was uprcarously received by the
side favored. When the figures were de-

The instance of Senator Fritz was cited.
sho wing how he had been boycotted for
his utilization with the labor party, and
that Mr.. Morgan, cognizant of this fact,
had the moral oourrge to come out and
stand with the workingmen. Would not
such moral courage command the
respect of all? The object of
the union labor party was to
right wrongs, and if Mr.. Morgan, a rich
man and merchant was opposed to these
wrongs and sYmpathized with Iaborers
against oppression, thst it was nonseuse
to combat him on any such score.
Mr.. Wilkins himself stated that in case
of such state of affairs, he would be
Obliged to withdraw from the labor
party.
Oh. FRANK POWELL NOMINATED.
After the discussion had continued for
nearly an hour, Mr.. Morgan being bitter
ly opposed by Messrs. Stitch, of La
Crosse, and Ward, of Grant county, L. L.
Green, of Dodge. and Mr.. Allen, of Beaver
Dam, were placed in nomination.
An informal ballot was then taken by
districts. Before the polling of the
ballot was commenced it became very
evident that some circumstances had set
the tide in favor of Powell, in spite OF
his refusal TO accept. The ballot re
suited l01 for Powell, 10 for Morgan and
for Allen. Powell was then nominated
by reclamation and accepted.
The ticket was completed as follows:
