There Is Demand for These Ships.

-Four first-class battleships and fifteen
torpedo-boats are the items of a PROPOSE
ton which the committee on naval af-
fairs will soon submit to the House In the
naval appropriation bill. AS yet no one
not even the House itself-knows how the
recomme ndations of the committee will be
received. but it is certain that the coun-
try generally will approve of the commit
tees effort to strengthen our navy in what
are now it's weakest places. Even in the
interior states-where the navy has been
practically friend.ess-there is now active
interest in that wise policy which dictates
preparation for contingent strife before hos
tilities commence. while on the coasts
there is loud-voiced demand for much more
than the committee would perhaps feel
justified in reporting. An effort was made
in committee to increase the number of
battleshIps to six, but the motion was de-
feated: not because six would be too many
there is need of a dozen or more-but be-
cause the nations financial condition or
party policy, had to be considered.

The Board Of Trade has indorsed the Nc
MILAN joint resolution to increase the local
water supply, the dollar-gas bill passed by
the House, and tn. action of the House in
reducing the cost of electric lighting within
the District. The Endorsements were not
hastily or thoughtlessly given; they were
the result of mature deliberation and suffi-
cient debate, and they may truly be said
to voice the sincere sentiments of an over
wheIming majority of Washington's popula-
tion. which the Board of Trade does and
should represent. 1t now becomes the
Specified duty of the Boards officers and
appropriate committees to urge to success
full conclusion whatever of legislation may
be necessary to provide the national capital
with a sufficiency of water. an improve
n:ent in the quality of the gas and rea-
st'nable reduction in the prices paid by con-
sumers for artificial illumination, whether
1t be by gas or electricity. The effort
should be characterized by concentration Of
forces and by immediate activity. Now is
the time to strike, and the blows should
rot be lacking In that quality which pugi-
lists call steam

Handle Dynamite Carefully.

Persons and property in the immediate
vicinity of Tnirty-fifth and streets mar
rowly escaped destruction last evening.
Inc horses drawing wagon in which was
considerable quantity of high explosives
ran away. the wagon colided forcibly with
a lamp-post and the dynamite was scat
tered all over the sidewalk and roadway.
1t is almost miraculous that no explosion
resulted. Speculation as to what might
have happened had one cartridge gone wrong
Is Idle, but the probabilities are SO startling
that it Is in order to suggest more care in
the transportation of such deadly material
over the city's streets. The quantity in
any one wagon should be small and Sc
eurely packed. and the horses ought to be
of a sort not as easily frightened as were
those which came SO near providing us
with tragedy.

cemps, although apparently supporting
caucus action, who yet were suspected OF
secretly pulling back and adding to the diff
hculttes. And SO 1t was that one week fol-
lowed another, with q very great deal SOL
emnly attempted but with nothing accom-
plished. Success for either nominee was
not on the cards at any time.
Unless Gov. Bradley calls this legislature
together In extra session-a step he has Ge-
elared he will not take-the question OF Mr
Blackburn's successor goes over for settle
ment by the next legislature. There is at
once loud assertion that Mr.. Blackburn
Will be certain to control that body. His
strategy in the recent fight, and the SYM
pathy estimated to accrue to him as the re-
suit of the tactics employed by the opposi-
ton, united to his personal popularity, will,
his friends predict, inure everywhere to
his advantage.
But the senatorship, there is every reason
to believe, will not be decided on those
points. Mr.. Blackburn at once renews his
pledge to silver, and will run again. he de-
clares. as the silver candidate. Meanwhile
the democratic National Convention is to
meet and adopt a platform, and that plat
form Is to be submitted to the people for
their judgment at the polls. Suppose the
Chicago convention decides against free
silver. either by a compromise, or straight
forward gold declaration. Or, suppose free
silver wins at Chicago and loses heavily at
the polls. How strong would free silver
campaign be In Kentucky, or anywhere else,
next year? That issue would be back
number. and the man taking it up and stalk
ing his fortunes on it be certain to lose. He
would, in fact, be little better than a politi-
cal suicide So it is altogether premature
for anybody to be claiming anything not to
be decided until next year. A new issue and
a new man, on an entirely new political
alignment. may sweep Kentucky then.
Much of the criticism of Gov Bradley
seems to be ill-timed and ill-tempered
That proceeding from men of the Chinn
order is of course of no Importance what
ever. Gov. Bradley cannot afford to notice
1t. WHAT a professional fighting man"
may think or say about a high official
sworn to administer the law and cour-
ageous enough to keep the peace molds
sentiment In no respectable quarter. For
the rest, the record has been made, and the
governor and his friends show Willingness
to stand by it. The remedy was no more
unusual than the complaint. Criticism
awaited the governor on either hand. Hal
the toCghs been permitted to carry out
their program, and an unseemly alterca-
ton occurred in the joint assembly, he
would have been censured for not exercis-
ing his powers as peace officer. He de-
cloed to &ct-and 1t is an important point
that ne was advised to do SO h democrats
as well as by repubiicans-and order was
maintained. Peace sometimes comes high,
but it is always desirable, and being ready
to command it is. in the everyday world,
the very best way to secure it.
So far as Gov. Bradleys presidential
boom Is concerned, that will not be likely
to suffer. The republicans of the state will
compliment him and then vote for Mr.. Nc
klnley, and that has all along been the
program.

Public md Private Corporations.

1t was seriously urged by two or three
members at the Board of Trade meeting
last night that the welfare of this city is
being seriously threatened, if not actually
imperilled. by the general effort which Is
now being made to bring about reduction
in the selling prices of gas and electricity.
The main contention of those who so
argued is based uron the perennial timidity
of capital and its habit of avoiding local
fties where it is likely to receive any other
than considerate treatment. 1t was con-
tended that corporations which may have
been considering the advisability of setting
up great manufacturing establishments
within the District of Columbia will go else
where soon as they become aware Of
popular feeling here in behalf of cheaper
gas ard see how heartily the Board shares
in the general belief that Congress should
exercise it's power of control in the Interest
of the frequently unconSdered consumer
Surely the contention on that line could not
have been in earnest. 1t is most improbable
that any intelligent man fails to note the
differences which separate the purely-pri-
vate corporation from the corporation
which is semi-public in its character.
If individuals or aggregations of indi-
viduals desire TO set up in this District fac
ware. pottery or textile fabrics, any
other useful product, they will be cordially
received, and, so long as their processes do
not conflict with laws common to all i'm
portant municipalities, they can be certain
Of local support and encouragement They
may rest easy in the knowledge-already in
the possession of existing private corpora
tons here-that the Board of Trade will
never petition Congress to legislate the price
of their products, either up Or down, for the
Board of Trade is common-sense organi-
zation, and 1t knows that Congress has
nothing whatever to do. directly. with the
Condpct of private concerns.
AS matter of fact the action of the
Board IS to dollar gas and cheaper electric
ity is likely to encourage the immigration of
capital Prospective investors are not at
tracted by exorbitant gas-rates nor is any
iEducement held out by the present prices of
electric light and power. Cheaper those
things which the manufacturer needs and
you at once have something with which to
capture his attention. Capital readily dis
Germs the distinctions by which corporations
are classified; it sees, even if it does not
always acknowledge, why there should be
legislative control of companies whose ex-
istence would never have been possible had
rot the public put them in possession of the
privileges out of which their growth has
resulted. Gas companies. steam and street.
railroad companies, and electric lighting
companies are practically in partnership
with the public and are therefore, not to be
confounded with private corporations
