one Of the largest cranes in the world. II
not the largest one, was built to handle 1t,
new lathes were secured, and an immense
amount of new machinery was purchased
The cost was so great that it Is doubtful
II any more of similar size will be built.
When 1t was decided to build this gun 1t
was the intention Of the government to
construct about twenty sixteen-inch guns,
but the cost has been such that the project
will probably be abandoned.

T0MORROW'S CONVENTION.
A word about the conveni ion tome

A word about the convention tomor-
row..
AS result of the mythical meetings
of the mystic number seven, as retaied
by our good friend, the Beacon
Journal, the Democrats are by that
sheet credited, for once in the world,
with being in a state of dove-lke har-
mony among themselves.
In this concluding part of its screed,
the Beacon Journal has told the truth,
quite accidentally, we are sure.
We do not desire to pay any at
tention to this folly of our contem-
porary In regard to the "big seven,"
or small seven, or any other kind Of
seven. 1t must. have sprung from too
much reading about the seven won
ders OF the world and the other
myths in which that number plays n
part. The fact is the young man
with whom the Beacon Journal editor
left his bellows during his absence
must have bats in his belfry. Better
stick to Dick, brother; the minute you
quit him you run into breakers.
But let the Democrats profit by the
statement that there is harmony
among them. Our counsel to them is
that, tomorrow and till the polls close
on election day, they justify and live
ND to it, Let them nominate a ticket
of men, whose record shall commend
them to the good sense Of the commun.
ity, and let all hands, whether candi-
dates or not, work for it's election, and
for the election of every man on it,
equally and impartially, and the con
vention will name winners from end to
end. We are glad to believe, with
the Beacon Journal, that there are no
sore or weak spots in the line now.
We advise that none be allowed to crop
out after the convention is over, nor
during the campaign.
"A long pull, strong pull and pull
all together" and the Democracy in
this county will land it's ticket on
election day. This is the only pull our
party can hope to have, and we hope
1t will be fully improved.

A BURLESQUE on JUSTICE.

President Palma, of the new Cuban
Republic, has signed the bin granting
amnesty to all Offenders from this
country who We're convicted during
the administration of Cuban affairs by
the United States. and the measure has
thus become law. The consequence
IL that Nicely was released from prison
in Hnvann few days ago.
Rathbone was already out on bail
furnished by his comrade Mark Hanna.
and is IN this country.
This action on the part Of the Cuban
government is not because either of
these men is innocent, for the record
OF conviction against them still stands
In NIL its shameful enormity; 1t is be-
cause Rathbone had been Hanna's
henchman In the devious and shady
work which sent the latter to his seat
In the Senate, and Hanna had vowed
to see him free. Accordingly he de-
manded the interference Of Roosevelt
for the benefit Of this convict, and the
President, who used to believe ''stren.
uously' in the free and unlimited coinage
OF back bone, and posed as the APOSTLE
OF civil'service righteousness, lapsed
into that state of moral inyertebrntlsm
which overcomes him when the Cleve.
land boss wants anything, and ordered
new trial. or course, having had
fair trial in the first place, no differ.
ent result was to he hoped for upor
another one. So the tip went out 10
the Cuban authorities, and Mr.. Ha ma 4
wish was respected, with the effect
above stated. To release Rathbone and
leave Nicely In prison would leave this
burlesque on justice even too gross for
the stomach ofthe American people-in
ured as that organ is to diet OF TIM,
sort and the result is that the whole
disreputable gang have been white
washed by a Republican administra tor
and are once more rich and respec
table ~ ,el-
This disposition Of thematter entltle,
