Shamrock in Dry Dock.

Nothing New About the Irish Yacht. Has
Greater Draught than Columbia, and is
Fuller.
New YORK, Sept. u. The Irish cup
challenger, the Shamrock, was today
safely locked at Erie basin. Twenty
minutes after she was warped into posi-
ton over the Il blocks at the bottom of
the dock, her keel resting securely in
place. There was no attempt to hide the
lines of the yacht. The yard was open to
the public, and hundreds of yachtmen
stood for hours while the water was being
pumped out, that they might get a look
at the under body and keel of the chal-
lenger.
AS the water receded, the body of the
Shamrock came in view and it was seen
that she was big, powerful craft, with
her greatest beam about where the most
head runners fasten to the deck The I'M
derbody which is Of bronze, was covered
with sort Of slime, which came off
readily. When the hull and keel were
fully exposed, there were expressions of
disappointment heard on all sides The
experts expected to see something new
and a radical departure from the old type
of English cutter The Irish cutter can
be described as vessel with Britannia
body and Defender fin and lead, includ-
ing the latters rocker keel, but with
greater draught than either.
In comparison with the cup defender
Columbia, Shamrock is fuller bodied,
especially amidship, with about foot
more beam and with draught about ten
inches greater.
Her over hangs are shorter, so that the
lines of her hull are not so we'll carried
out as on the Columbia and, being short,
increase the look of bulkiness. Her lead
keel is rounded up like that of the '92
champion, but little more at the bow
than the latter. Her lead keel is about
as thick as the Columbia's but not nearly
so deep. The lead on the keel weighs
about Is tons, but as it is about five feet
longer than the latter's or about SO feet,
and not nearly SO deep, it puts the ballast
lower and therefore gives Shamrock as
much if not greater stability.
The Shamrock carries more sail than
the Columbia, as her mast is stepped
about two feet farther aft, giving her
more head sail, while the mainsail is also
larger than the cup defenders.
The Shamrock's midship sections are
continuous curves from the deck line to
the turn of the cardboard. Her bilge
hardens greatly at the quarter, just oppo-
site to the Columbia's and gives one the
impression that it will retard her progress
in sailing.
When the lead keel was exposed it was
found to be unlike the Columbia S in that
it is unprotected by bronze. 1t is painted
with some sort of red composition to pro-
tect it from the action of the salt water.

An Ocean Race.

The great 16, 600 mile ocean race around
the Horn between the American clipper
ships Jabez Howes from Baltimore, and
Arthur Sewall from Philadelphia, both for
San Francisco, has been woD by the Howes.
Capt. Clapp of the Howes and Capt. Muir
phy of the Sewall are brothers in law
and in May last when their ships were
loading at Baltimore and Philadelphia,
respectively, they proposed a race to San
Francisco, as the distance between the
ports is about the same. The Sewall sail
ed from New York May p with picked
crew, and the Howes left Baltimore May
26 with the very best set of men firm Of
shipping masters could secure. The
Howes passed in the Golden Gate Sept.
24th.

phosphate rock for Baltimore, and from
which nothing has since been heard.
Her dimensions are: Length of keel, 1S5

Saloons in Manila.

To THE EDITOR OF The PHILADELPHIA
Press; In reading Professor Flexner' S
interview, who has recently returned from
the Philippines, in the Bulletin few
evenings ago, l noticed that he says:
MANY Americans are also in Manila now,
but, SO far as | could see, they were not
competing with the Germans and English
in big unde rtakings. They seem for the
most part to contine themselves to such
business as is supported by the soldiers.
For instance, almost every third business
house in Manila is an American saloon.'
Now l thoroughly believe in retaining
the Philippines and developing up the far
East and that the policy of President
Mckinley, who is practical man, should
be upheld by the American people. But
when it comes to this that every third
house in Manila is rum saloon run by an
American, then, | say, shame. This Gov
eminent, whose mighty strides in trade,
in our manufactures and commerce, have
been the wonder of the world, ought to
put stop to this awful outrage in the
Philippines. Better never have retained
those islands or endeavored to civilize the
natives if we intend to establish hell holes
OF rum everywhere among them, tor the
liquor traffic in the Orient will mean
steady destruction of the native races and
our soldier boys as we'll. l feel deeply on
this question. and as an American citizen
l can only hang my head in sorrow as
think of this great wrong.

COrnOra tion Ia wver Root

Corporation lawyer Root, act
ing Secretary of War, is getting
ahead of Otis in his efforts to
muzzle the press and uphold the
autocratic power now assumed
and welded by shoulder-strap-
pers. In endorsing the action
of General Ludlow in suppress
ing a paper in Havana, he added:
1T is to be regretted that the
person responsible for the pub
lication cannot be crinlinally
punished. " The crime of which
the suppressed newspaper had
been guilty was said to be "un-
warranted criticism of the Amer
ican authorities in Havana. "
Maintain the present federal of
ficials in power, and it is only a
question of a short time until
they will be able to ''punish
criminally" any person or news
paper who may have the hardi-
hood to utter word derogatory
of their person or actions.

Ingersoll may have been in
error in his religious views, &C
cording to the orthodox stand
ard, but his ideas Of political
economy, in our estimation, were
about correct; at least in the fol-
lowing particular: 1.-THE tenden-
cy has always been in this world
to put the burdens upon those
least able to bear them. In bar
barous countries thewomen have
to do the work simply because
they are weaker-that is all.
And the others, being stronger,
expend their strength in making
the weaker do their work. This
is precisely the same in our civ
ilized society to-day. Between
the rich and the poor, if the bur-
den is to be borne in this coun-
try, it is to be borne by the poor
always. They are the first to

In a Democracy, where the
majority is assumed to rule, to
be in reality the governing pow
er, there should be no power, no
law, no privilege, no precedent,
no constitutional or other legls-
lative enactment that for a mo-
ment should stand between that
majority and the exercise OF
that power-assuming,ot OF course,
it is a just power to be justly
exercised. No man, no set of
men, no President, no House, no
Senate. no lobby, no judge, no
court of one nor of five or ten,
or of more or less judges should
stand between the majority and
it's just wish and desire. If,
then, the majority should rule,
the people should have an op-
portunity to express themselves
on any and all legislation pro-
posed under such form of gov
ernment. In other words, every

We have been in possession of
Cuba and Porto Rico for nearly
a year, says the Washington
Post. We have our armies and
officials there. We are pledged
to give these hapless people res
cue, protection and relief. And
yet, with the possible exception
of a few minor improvements in
the provinces commanded by
Generals Wilson and Wood in
Cuba and General Davis in Por
to Rico, what have we done for
the ma terial betterment of the
poor, the helpless and the weak?
We have improved palaces set
up glittering retinues and estab-
lished pomp and ceremony in
Havana. We have swept a few
streets and played at sanitation
and diplomacy. We have hob
nobbed with Gomez and Aguirre
and all sorts of frauds and relics
of the insurrection. But the
masses still groan under a ty-
ranny and spoliation quite as
ruthless as the Spanish rulers
ever sanctioned, and personal
liberty and equal opportunity,
as we understand the terms in
the United States, are unknown
in either island. When is the
work of intelligent and practi-
cal rehabilitation to begin?

It is impossible to gather from
any recent utterances of the
President, or any of the men in
authority, that even the re-
motest independence is intended
for the Fillipinos, says Brann's
Iconoclast. 1t seems to be the
certain settled purpose of the
administration to whip them in
to subiection, make of their
lands a colonial possession of
the United States and govern
them by white federal appoint
ees. A correspondent telegraph
ing recently about the people of
the island of Cebu said that they
were stupid and could see no
difference between a Spaniard
and a Yankee. "All white men
looked alike to them" Why
shouldn't they? They have
never seen a white man who did
not attempt to rob them, and
when they are better acquaint-
ed with us they will find that as
thieves and looters we have
nothing to learn from the Span
ish or any other nalion.

The Philadelphia Ledger,

The Philadelphia Ledger, a
leading republican paper of a
strong republican state, states
the case in a clear, concise and
plain manner, as follows: The
truth is that the war in the Phil
lippines is one for conquest, for
a clear title to the islands for
which the country paid so good
ly price to Spain. The war is
conducted for the purpose of
perfecting that title; it is a war
for acquisition, for the expan
sion of our territory, the in
crease of our commerce, for
strategical advantages III the

try has paid for duly with money
the country contends, with force
of arms, that it shall have. If

An Outsiders Opinion
Of the Future Growth and Prosper
perity of WinsIow.

EDITOR MAIL-In looking over
your town and sizing it up, as
compared with what it appear
ed to be some three or four years
ago, I consider it a very mild
expression to say, I am aston
ished! A few of the facts as
CLEANED from your best posted
citizens, are as follows: Entire
population, about $500; chill
dren of school age, about 200;
enrolled the first day of school,
135. Estimated increase in pop
ulation and buildings in three
years, 50 per cent.
With these facts and figures
to look at, let us reflect few
moments. A few years ago, at
a teachers institute held at st.
Johns, your school being repre-
sented by Prof. Gray, the re-
port made, scarcely entitled you
to rate as an average among the
schools Of Apache county. To
day we find you with the finest
and best equipped district school
building in Northern Arizona;
the largest school attendance of
any district in Navajo county,
Snowflake is nearly the same,
and a fine educational outlook
for the future. The deductions
may be stated as follows In the
late increase of population, a
large per centage are married
men with families; that the place
is assuming a permanent char
acter, as though it had come to
stay. Another feature that is
favorable, is the great interest
that is being taken in the devel-
opment of the farming interests;
several hundred acres of fairly
good land are under cultivation
at the present time, and several
times as much more is being ta-
ken up and purchased; water is
being carefully looked after, and
reservoir sites and rights of way
for canals are being acquired
from the Secretary of the Inte
rior, by making the suitable ap-
plications.
These facts indicate a still
further increase in population,
and the shrewd, careful bust
ness man, will no doubt have his
dish right side up, and corral
the benefits that naturally arise
from such increase.
Much money is sent out of the
country, to purchase articles
that should be produced at home
and several good incomes could |
be secured by studying up this
matter and acting promptly in
the premises.
