COAL FOR THE NAVY.

From the Philadelphia Stockholder.
The superiority of anthracite as a fuel
for war vessels is unquestioned. The
weight of all authority favors it. For
more than thirty years past, successive
commissions of experts, appointed by our
own navy department. have reported IN
favor of the use of hard coal in preference
to bituminous. Throughout the civil war,
Pennsylvania anthracite was used almost
exclusively by the United States navy,
and it was not until several years after
the close of that war that soft coal began
to gain ground for naval purposes. Its ad-
vance was rapid, with the result that at
the present time no United states war
vessel burns hard coal. The advantages Of
the latter need hardly be enumerated. IL
seem absurd, for example, to paint our
battle ships and cruisers a ghostly gray
in order that their color may blend with
the ocean mists, thereby concealing their
movements, when a, single shoTelful CT
soft coal tossed into the fire box adver-
tises the vessels presence to any enemy
that may be within a score OF miles.
Spontaneous combustion of soft coal has,
even in the short period of the present
war, given much trouble aboard our war
ships; this is danger ever present where
bituminous coal is stored: many who VIII
read these lines have sailed over thou
sand miles OF ocean unconscious that a
fire was raging in the coal bunkers be-
meath them. This never occurs with an
thracite; the latter can be kept between
a ships decks, or in other storage, for
| long periods without danger, and with no
appreciable loss of energy. 1t is easy and
| clean to handle; bulk for bulk, anthra-
cites steam making properties are three
times as great as those OF bituminous; II
requires less stoking. consequently small
| er forces of men; there is no substantial
| difference in the cost when all factors are
| taken into consideration.

MI. Chittenden's Letter.

Mr. Chittendeus defense of the
Crawford county system, which ap-
pears elsewhere on this page. should
be read in connection with the letter
from Mr.. Acker in last Thursday S
Tribune, to which it replies. IT will
be noted that Nh Chittenden expects
a change from the venal delegate TO
the direct nomination system in Lack
awanna county to remedy somewhat
speedily most of those abuses which
have their root in the indifference of
the party masses toward their duty at
the primaries. This, OF course, can
only be upon the supposltion that the
change in systems will be simultane-
Gus with an equally radical change
in the attitude of the county's electors.
But is that suppositiOn authorized?
If the Crawford county system is to
be adopted after open discussion in
Lackawanna we certainly trust that
Mr.. Chittenden's optimistic predictions
VIII be fulfilled to the letter: that with
the abolition of the delegate system
money will cease to exert a pernicious
influence in politics; that primaries
under the new order viii be fair, we'll
attended and honestly expressive OF
the party will; and that eligibility TO
preferment at the hands of the people
will be broadened to include every de-
serving citizen having quallEcat tiops
for public office. irrespective of wealth
or poverty, creed, or previous condition
of servitude. Toward this ideal reform
should tend. But a pertinent question
in this connection is, Will a mere re-
adjustment OF the mechanism of pro-
curing nominations for Office secure
radical improvement in political con-
ditions in the absence OF any general
betterment of individual conditions

Nearing the Finish.

That Spain would in the end agree
to our terms of peace was assured
from the beginning. The utmost that
has been in doubt on this point was as
to the period of time which would be
required for her procrastinating and
inefficient rulers to act upon their rec
ognition of the inevitable.
Holding as it does every point of ad-
vantage, our government can we'll af-
with equanimity. The news from
Madrid tells of conferences, counter
conferences, goings and comings which
signify that the opposition of the dons
is on its last legs. In spite of the re-
ported decision to gulp our terms down
Internationally, if we may draw infer
ences from the past there will probably
be efforts vet to secure from us a
CLOSING of the nauseous dose, for dip
lomatic juggery is Spanish second
nature. But firmness, fortunately well
assured, at Washington will be followed
in due season by yielding at Madrid.
We need not become impatient.
The United States is now at the
happest stage in it's Spanish -Ameri-
can relations. The war VIGOROUSLY
ended with unexpected prestige for
American arms, we have not vet en-
tered seriously upon the discharge of
its unsuspected responsibilities. God
grant that our victories coming as the
duties of re-established peace shall
compare in glory and thoroughness
with our militant triumphs.

ANNEXATION INEVITABLE.

When it is found that the Cubans are

as in the case of Hawaii, because our in

ROOSEVELT AND ALGER.
A Piece of Pettiness.

From the Chicago Record.
After the extraordinary service which
Colonel Roosevelt has rendered it was a
piece of pettiness for Secretary Alger
thus to take advantage of his first oppor-
tunity to rebuke and humiliate him pub
licly. putting false construction on an
impusve remark to try to make him an
object of dislike to the other volunteers.
This was not noble on the part of the
secretary of war. One is tempted to be-
lieve the act was prompted by feeling
of spite.

weeks later.
