Cos. Of Long distance rowing.

1t is only few years ago that ship
ping men heard with wonder the story
of the first long tow of a thousand miles.
How eagerly it was discussed. What
tame reading it makes nowl For little
tug to drag a heavy load that distance
now is as easy as the journey of an ''L''
train from the Battery to Harlem.
Within the last few months oceangoing
tugs have towed big craft that had come
to grief in the Spanish main all the way
TO this port for repairs. The hauling
operation became necessary because of
the absence of suitable marine "doc-
tor" or repairing facilities at the place
where the vessels were damaged. Re-
pairs are expensive in the tropics, and
in number of cases good round sum
was saved even after long tow to this
port.
The champion long distance tow per-
haps is now in progress. Two months
ago an immense steam tug left the Mer-
sey, bound to Rio Janeiro, to bring back
to England large iron bark that had
been seriously damaged in a storm near
the equator. This tug has started back
with her charge, and it is foregone con-
clusion that she will reach the Clyde
without any mishap.
Owners decline to give any informa-
ton concerning the cost of. a long dis
tance tow, but one like that from Rio to
England must be enormous. Here is a
trip of at least five months, over dis.
tance of 1000 miles. At the very least
1900 tons of bunker coal must be used
There you have 81 900 at one slap. Pro
visions will cost $1,000 more. Thai
makes $4,000. Put the wages of the
crew at $1,000 more That makes $13,
600. Then figure incidentals at 81 1000
and the landsman may understand wha
an expense is attached to job of tha
kind. A total of $4,000 spent before ;
single penny is paid for repairs. Thes'
figures are from the tugboat owner
standpoint and do not directly show th'
cost of the tow to the charterer. Th
owner of the steam tug has to live lik
other people, and his profit for the tril
will be all the way from So, 900 to 81 ,00O
That swells the amount to SIT, 900 O
more.-New York Mail and Express.

arguing that that would make white
lead-with which house paint is made
cheap, and that it would be a bene-
fit to the East. That is directly III
line with Democratic doctrine. Now
| believe that three. fourths Of the silver
produced in the United States is III
conjunction with lead. In Idaho there
is very little silver produced which
does not come with lead. There are
. few mines, | am aware, like the
great DeLamar mine in Owyhee,
which do not carry lead in cor junction
with silver; bu. they are rare excep>
tons. You take . ton Of silver ore
which runs go per cent. in lead-aver-
aging the States production-and 80
ounces in silver. Now, lead is worth
about 81 rs per 100 pounds. To-day
| thihk 1t is worth about $500. i.
has certainly been higher than that
since the Mckinley bill passed. Sixty
per cent. is 1900 pounds. At $4.25
that ton of ore is worth in lead ISL.
And 80 ounces OF silver are worth,
say, 80 cents. l am aware it is not
worth that now; but it has averaged
that for the last year, and is liable to
get above that. At 80 cents the silver
in the ton of ore would be worth $27;
s5l for lead and t27 for silver is SIS.
That is what your ore is worth now
under present lead and silver laws.
Now if you get either Weaver or
Cleveland you get free lead. You
cannot escape it. Lead will then be
worth 81. per 100 pounds. Your
2400 pounds Tor 60 per cent.) will be
worth $24. Your silver is 80 ounces
at 80 cents, or $27. So that ton of
ore will be worth only s51, which
Is just exactly what the
lead in your ore is now worth. As.
suming, for the sake of argument,
that you get Weaver--you cannot say
Cleveland because the most violent
stretch OF Imagination could not sug.
gest Cleveland in connection with the
free coinage Of silver-say you get
Weaver, and with Weaver you get
the free coinage of silver, and silver
becomes worth 81 20 an ounce. Then
with Weaver you would also get free
lead at 81 per 100, and your lead
would be worth $24 per ton. You
would still have 80 ounces Of silver
worth, say, 81 20 per ounce, which
would be s3S.7O-making $62 20 for
the ton Of lead.silver ore. You would
thus lose SIS 80 cents, because of free
lead, en- the price you now get for
your ore carrying 60 per cent. lead
and 30 ounces Of silver. And if you
do not get free coinage of silver you
absolutely destroy your mining prop.

silver you close one-ha!f of your mines

A GHOST.DANCE ORGAN "GONE IN,

The New York Financial and Min.
ing Record has suspended publica-
ton after an existence of over Is
years. The editor, in announcing
the suspension, states that it is on
account of a lack of support from
quarters where it would naturally
be most confidently expected-from
the silver miners of the West-as
the paper has for years made a
staunch fight for silver.
The trouble is that the Record
''got OF wrong when it joined the
ghost-dancers, and the intelligent
friends Of silver. who know that its
rehabilitation is impossible unless at
least the majority of commercial ma.
tions join in it's reconciliation, and
that ratio of l6 to is not the best
that can be done. withdrew their
patronage.
Ghost dancing is rapidly losing
the hold that it had in the mining
regions, and when, the day after
election, the ballots are counted,
people will wonder that so few voters
could have made so much noise
The Republican administration can
then push to a successful termination
its efforts in behalf Of the white

leo Cream Dcliverine NIach,nc.

An American company has struck
the popular taste in London by the or
ganization of system of automatic
machines on the penny-in-the-slot prin-
clple for the delivery of ice cream.
This toothsome clement of daily
consumption in this country is
not SO commonly used in Eng
land, and the ability to obtain it at all
hours at slight cost constitutes nothing
short of luxury to many classes OF
Londoners. The novelty of the ma
chine lies in the combination of the
pneumatic delivcrer with an ice refrir-
orator. which is so effective that when
the machine is full the supply of ices
will, each ice being contained in sepa-
rate cardboard box, keep good for a
whole week; that is to say, will not
melt during that period. 1t is expected
that not only will these machines be
well patronizcd by the public, but by
hotel and restaurant proprietors and
confcctioners, who will be fully alive to
the advantages of having supply of
good, wholesome ice cream constantly
on hand without any of the risks of
