THAT our government has an excellent
transport feet in its service appears to be
the general opinion not only of our own
but of foreign officers. The ships we
bought OF an English company at the
time of the Spanish war have been re-
modelled since they came under our flag.
Originally intended as much for cargo
boats as for passenger service. they have
been SO reconstructed that they are now
model troopships which literally accom-
modate more than regiment. Soldiers
are not packed into them like sardines,
but have comfortable quarters. So am
pie are the facilities for the well being OF
soldiers that all can live up to the re-
quirement of three baths week. Our
latest transports have attracted great at
tention from foreign nations. France
has asked for copies of the plans of the
Sheridan. and our government has grant
ed the request. TheR British government
also desires plans of the cold storage
plants. whereby fresh meat for 1900
men for 50 days is carried from New
York to Manila. All this is gratifying
not only to national pride. but as a just
recognition of the nations obligation to
its soldiers to make them as comfortable
as possible on their way to and from the
place OF military operations.

THE revenue war tax levied upon the
People to pay the expenses ofthe Cuban.
Spanish war and the present war for con-
quest in the Philippines by the present
Mckinley administration is ten millions
of dollars per month. and yet the deficit
for last year was $50. 900 900. and out of
whom does this enormous war debt come
out of the people. out of the consum-
ers out of every man, woman and child,
and yet we must submit to this policy OF
Imperialism, but the end is in sight.

MooN,s PHASES,
oOALING A BATTLEsHIP BY troll.

CoLiey's WSeky for December 9 con-
tains some most remarkable photographs
OF the recent experiments of the Navy
Department in coaling battleship at sea.
In series of trials extending over sever
al days. the battleship Massachusetts
was coaled from the collier Marcellus by
means of wire cables over which bags of
coal were sent from one ship to another
while the warship towed the collier
through heavy seaway at the rate Of
FIVE knots per hour. Lieutenant Sum-
mers. in an interesting article which ac-
companies the pictures. tells how the feat
was accomplished. The photographs
were taken both from the massachusetts
and the 1Aa,relzns. the WsskLy having
representative on each ship. and they are
the only pictures taken OF an event which
promises to revolutionize naval operations
especially in the case OF invading fleets.
The successful outcome of this attempt
is not only of the greatest importance
during these piping times OF war, but the
photographs depicting it are excellent
and cover the details infinitely.
Other subjects covered are the funeral
of Vice-President Hobart, the Re-
Awakening OF Official Washington. the
South African War. and the speed trial of
the new battleship Kentucky. tits an ex-
ceedingly attractive and welLbalanced
