ELECTRICITY AS A COMPETITOR
WITH COAL.

Where electricity can be generated
by power from water falls, running
streams, or wind mills, it will easily
Bupercede coal. This fact is being
illustrated in Europe, especially in
England, where the scarcity of coal is
bringing all the inventive genius of
science to peal on this subject. 1t is
noted that in steam engines only a
portion of the heat energy of the coal
consumed is developed. The rest is
waste, even with the best appliances.
In the modern power plant, however.
with great boilers and engines the
consumption of coal does not exceed
two pounds per horse power of the
mechanical energy developed per hour
and is frequently less. Still, with the
best devices for utilizing its heat en-
ergy, coal is a great item of expense
in manufacturing. The Philadelphia
Record estimates that each hose
power of mechanical energy developed
from steam in the whole United States
costs not far from $50 per n
The Niagara Falls Power Company and
other similar concerns which supply
electricity generated from water pow
or. find it profitable business in fur
niski.g to manufactures electric cur
rent equivalent to one horse power of
pooChnnioa1 anarrxy d1r- and NIGHT fnr
less than $40 per year Here is a ire
mendous margin of economy which is
a potent factor in encouraging the
utilization of every waterfall and
stream in the generation of electricity.
Cheap as coal is, especially in such
States as West Virginia, Natures water
power if still cheaper.
RE development of electrical power
is being stimulated by the present coal
famine in Europe. Our Philadelphia
contemporary, in a lengthy article on
the subject, believes that this develop
ment will be so great in the near future
that the worlds demand for coal will
soon steadily decline; has already, in
fact, reached almost the highest point.
1t will be long years, however, be-
fore the United States finds itself in
The predicament of Great Britain.
Dur soft coal deposits are almost in
pxhaustible and are not at the deep
levels which makes mining expensive
h England. In view of the situation,
It would seem to be good policy for
American miners to market their sur
plus abroad while the world is hungry
for coal, though we r handicapped
by the short-sighted high tariff policy
that restricts our foreign trade. The
London Economist says:

tunity. and she II seizing Il. The export

When last l saw thee, Richmond, dear
Richmond on the James,
l was a wretch forsaken and a dog could
call me names.

was rent and torn,
And l thought a big mistake was made the
day tnat l was born.
For l hadn't any country that ( coutd cali

The flag that I had followed was to shreds
and tatters blown;
And they made a kind request of me, as a
thing twas best to do,
To swear my faith to q better ag-the old
red, white and blue.
I took my dose of medicine like any little
man,
And said, III keep my promise, boys. or do
And hat old oath subscribed my me is In
my pocket yet,
And the DAY that l subscribed it is a day
l don't regret.
1t was an awful day for us. dear Richmond
on the James,
When we went down in sorrow and you
went up in flames,
But better days ave come, thank God. and
we see meath clearer skies -,
The promised land which then was hid
from our misguided eyes.
From present indications I expect to
again mount the tripod in the Democrat

Wars are suspended. We are assured
that the Philippine war is over. What

that fashion by the brutal British govern
ment. Why does not the civilized world
protest against 1t in a way to bring Eng
land to her senses? All the world agrees
to-day that the Beers cause is just. Are
we to permit their cruel and mighty op-
pressor to stamp the life out of a free peo-
pie? 1t is a burning shame.

TROUBLE FOR THE RI1G CANDI-
DATE.

1t appears that the ring candidate
for Governor, Collector A. B. White, is
not finding his pathway one of roses.
In some sections there is complaint
that he is not attending to the duties
of the Internal Revenue Office, but de-
voting his time chiefly to furthering
his personal political ambition. The
Grafton Leader says:
"A. Blakeslie White is reported by the
local Republican press OF the State quite
frequently nowadays as having been
through their section on a business trip
Blakeslie is not attending verv closely to
the duties for which he is paid a fat salary
by, the government, they being largely per-
formed by a lot Of su~bordinates, while
White runs the political end Of affairs. and
in the above instances, these business
trips are made solely in his own Interests
to down Freer for the g~ubernatorial nom-
nation"

A spirited controversy among mem
bers of the committee occurred when
Mr.. Cheney, an attorney for the de-
tense, ~interposed an objection to one
of Mr.. Robinson's questions.

from private counsel. He added that
it had become apparent that the ma

attorney, was trying to shift respons-

Chairman Hull replied that he re-

Think it over for yourself. The Old time
Republicans who fought the battles and
bore the brunt OF the campaigns during
the many years that the party was in a
hopeless minority. have no more show than
a rabbit in a dog kennel. Just as soon as
the large colored vote came in and turned
the political tide to Republicanism in this
State, the festive Ohio office hunters who
had been crowded out of the Buckeye State
swarmed across the river and occupied all
the front seats at the Republican feast.

SELFISH ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Gus KANSAS CITY.


Philadelphia hasn't yet walked up to
its duties as a national convention
city. The committee that secured the
convention on a promise to the Repub-
lican leaders that sufficient funds
would be raised to pay for it, has fail
ed to raise the funds. This indiffer-
ence of the greatest Republican city in
the land to the Republican national
convention is something remarkable
and it is beginning to dawn upon the
leaders that it Is likely to injure the
party. Evidently there will be little
campaign Doodle collected in Philadel-
phia this year, although nc city in the
land has reaped more gain from Re-
publican policies, especially the tariff,
than Philadelphia. An exchange re-
marks:
"This example of indifference is likely to
be followed elsewhere when the Republi-
cans begin to ask contributions for the
campaign. The tariff is settled indefinite
ly. 1t will be years before any important
"a Ait101 I - Inv RANANN-N %&'f
although the recent disclosures by the Car
negie company will be used by the Demo-
Gratis to demonstrate the necessity OF re-
ducing duties. The money question is also
out of politics, so that the banking and
other financial interests cannot be fright
ened into liberal contributions. Thus the
Republicans will be compelled to ask funds
upon what they nave done and rot What
they can do to benefit their contributors.
In other words, the special benef1ci-
aries of the Republican policies in the
East, having got all they a get out
of the party are quite Indifferent to
the future of the politicians who have
served their private interests so faith
fully at the expense of the masses OF
the American people. This is rank in
gratitude certainly, but between the
Republican leaders and the Republican
beneficiaries and campaign contribu-
tors it has been altogether a game of
| self-interest Each side having been
ION the make" neither considers that
it owes the other anything. Hence,
Philadelphia bankers and high tariff
beneficiaries lay back in fat and SOM
nolent contentment and in utter indif-
ference to what becomes of their
late political pals.
How markedly different is the action
of Kansas City, which will entertain
the Democratic National Convention.
Not only has every penny necessary
for the convention been raised and ar
rangements made for the entertainment
of 100, 900 strangers, but the committee
has perfected plans to entertain the
entire Democratic National Committee
in a body, without throwing the mem
bers of the committee on their indi-
vidual resources or the mercy of the
hotels. The Kansas City Club will
turn over its magnificent club house
for the committees use as living quar-
tiers, while the Kansas City Elks will
tender their building for the accom-
mediation of Tammany. Kansas City
is certainly a pioneer in the proper en-
tertainment of national political on
ventions.
