QUEER SORT OF BOAT.

We're that interesting and miscal-
culating gentleman. Robinson Crusoe.
to find himself upon one OF the sand
slopes of the Pacific coast. he would
think that his toilsome building of
boat so far from water as to be I'M
available when finished was being re-
peated on large scale. A pit 200
feet long by 40 feet wide and II or 10
feet deep has been dug, and in this,
often miles away from any open wa
ter, is built . large, fiat bottomed
barge, scanned and caulked and made
properly seaworthy.
On the barge are erected derr1cks,
and much strange machinery driven
by powerful electric motors. BY tho
time all is installed. water has per-
colated into the pit, and the boat.
built under such queer conditions, is
afloat.
This is the gold dredge. The sand
with which it is surrounded contains
gold in quantities which would not
nav to work out, except by such
scientific apparatus us this.
When operations begin the sand
and soil in front of the boat arc
dredged up, dumped into Sideways
on board, washed, sifted and treated
so as to secure valuable particles, and
the debria (tailings) is then deposited
over the stern.
The work goes on continually, the
unwieldy boat gradually eating Its
way through the marshy slopes. fll-
ing in the canal behind, as 1t WORKS
along foot by foot, and never having
floating room more than a few feet
beyond its own length.
The electric current is generated IN
a separate power house on land
short distance away, and conveyed
to the motors on board by the usual
conducting wires.

Due to RepnhlIc.n Policies.

It has been the aim of American manu-
facturers and the desire of our people to
increase the exports of manufactures.
Under the old Democratic regime manu-
factures constituted small item Of our
exports. Under Republican rule they
have steadily increased. During the ten
years ending with 1850 they averaged
10 per cent. of our total exports, and
during the ten years ending with 1860
they averaged IL per cent. of the
whole. During the last ten years Of
Democratic rule our exports of manu-
factured products increased only one per
cent.
The Republican party came into power
in 1860, and during the ten years end
ing with 1870 our exports of manufact-
ured products formed 10 per cent
of the total exports; during the ten years
ending with 1890 they averaged is
PEI cent. of the total, and during the
ten years ending with 1900 they We're
81 per cent. OF the total. In the fiscal
year 1901 they were % per cent. of the
total, and in 1902 they were 80 per cent
of the total.
The figures show conclusively that the
great system OF American manufactures
and our increased exports Of manufact-
ured products which contribute so largely
to the wealth and prosperity of the coun-
try are due to Republican policies and
administrations.

RrYan,a Revelation.

Bryan's reception in Indiana shows,
conclusively, that the Democrats of the
Middle West are not yet cured of the
free silver craze, with its accompanying
visions. The silence OF the st. Louis
platform on the money question was elo-
quent. Parker's telegram satisfied the
New Workers and enabled them to pre-
sent gold standard" candidate to the
conservative wing of the party, while the
silver wing was coolly set aside to be
fooled and cajoled into good humor dur
ing the campaign.
As a matter OF fact, the rank and file
of the Democratic party stand on the
money question and on all others just
where they stood in 1896. The logic of
events has not convinced their reason,
because, on economic questions, they
have no reason.
Bryan, who could not carry Indiana
for himself. cannot, of course, carry that
State, or any other State. for Parker.
He has, however. revealed the ass which
hides under the lions skin, assumed, for
purpose, by once great national
party.

ment time has seen on this earth we
inherit" is the best possible proof that
Judge Parker takes a purblind view of
the possibilities and benefits of COLOMBIA
ton. Although separated from the coun-
try that pushed "a backward and inferior
race" from the scene OF Judge Parker's
speech to the "Avon Beach Regular
Democratic Club of Long Island" does
he think for moment that England has
not shared in what was conquered for
mankind when the independence of her
American colonies was achieved?
But beyond all the narrow, petty, and
mistaken views Judge Parker takes OF
history and the onward and upward
sweep of national affairs. stands disclos-
ed the fact that the Democratic candi-
date for President OF the United States
is willing to believe everything evil the
lying tongue of slander can utter against
American government in the Philippines,
solely because there is Republican ad-
ministration In Washington. 1t seems
almost Incredible that n Presidential can
didate should become the willing herald
of every lying rumor bred in the pur-
lieus OF Manila.
And to think that he has descended
to this depth, not to force immediate
abandonment of the Philippines to the
tender mercies of their own corrupt and
imp0tent civilization, but to turn over
their preparation for independence to the
party of Tammany. Tweed und Till
man!
Never before has the candidate of
great political organization stood reveal
ed before the American people in the
role OF u credulous defamer OF the gov
ernment of his country. 1t sinks Judge
Parker far below the level of his party.

neers to support floating pipe line.

The pontoons are made of steel. %
feet in length and feet wide. They
will be arranged In such manner that
pipe nearly 1000 feet long will be
supported on the water by means OF
flexible connection, which will permit
the pipe and pontoons to respond to
the actions of the waves without sew
ering the fastenings. Through the
pipe tremendous quantities of silt,
which Is to be drawn from the bottom
OF Southwest Pass with n powerful
suction dredge for keeping a uniform
depth from the passes to deep water
in the gulf, will be piped for about
1 900 feet. After passing through the
pipe line the deposit will be dumped
into the sea.
The use of the projected floating
pipe line Is calculated to prove nov
el undertaking in this part OF the
country. The system will enable the
engineers to do away with tho use
of barges to take the silt and carry
1t from the passes, and instead of the
old method the mud Is going to be
handled in the same manner as oil
In standard pipe lines. 1t will re-
quire two pontoons to support one
section of pipe, which will be Joined
by means of flexible connections of
either rubber or canvas materials.
The line will not be disturbed by the
action of the water, and the harder
It blows the more the pontoon and
pipe will bounce. With the aid Of the
elastic Joints 1t will not be necessary
to keep the pontoons on uniform
level, as they will act the same as
foundations for pontoon bridge.
Ever since the United States gov
ernment assumed charge OF South
west Pass from the estate OF the late
Capt. John B. Eads efforts have been
made to simplify the disposal OF mud
from the bed OF the passes. Barges
have been used with limited success
at much cost until 1t was decided to
experiment with the Dontoon pipe
line, which is expected to prove su-
perior in every way. as well as more
economical. II the undertaking comes
out satisfactorily, the line may be ex-
tended farther out into the gulf.-New

1904, was only $194, 10000 He says:
1.-The avidity with which Judge Parker
and ex-Secretary Olney swallowed the
statement that the Philippines had cost
this country G5O.O0O,0OO. and the per-
tinacity with which they cling to it,
after its falsity has been proved again
and again, are past the comprehension Of
persons in Washington who are familiar
with the real conditions in the Philip
pines.
THAT the cost of the Philippines, in
Guiding the $2O,OOO,OOO paid to Spain,
amounted, up to May /, 1902, to $780,
100000, has been established beyond dis
pute. No Democratic member of either
house of Congress dared to challenge
Secretary Roots statement to that effect.
The cost to this country for the follow
ing year has been shown to be $3,0SO.-
600, and for the year just closed 81, 1OO,-
600, a total OF $194, 100000. That has
been the actual cost of the Philippines
up to June 30. 1904.
1.-The statement Mr.. Parker permitted
himself to repeat when he declared that
over 100000 lives have been sacrificed
is equally false. The total loss of life
OF American troops and Filipinos in the
American army from all causes has
amounted to 4,O67 privates and l55 OFF,
GERS, a total OF ,222 men. Even adding
to this number the loss Of Filipino in
surgents, liberal estimate of which is
less than 10000, the grand total aggre-
gates 1900, against Mr.. Parker's 3
100000. Moreover, the totals here given
include deaths from wounds, sickness,
drowning and other accidents, and, an
important contributory cause, the con-
tugious diseases which, unrestrained,
ravagcd Americans and Filipnos when
American occupation began. Only 49,
600 American soldiers. all told, have
been sent to the Philippines.
"As an offset to this loss of life should
be set the magnificent work of the army
medical corps and of the health officers
or the Philippine Commission, whose
unremitting efforts have stamped out the
plague, reduced smallpox and other con-
tasious diseases to minimum. and rem
dcred the Philippines as healthful as
Cuba"

Buying from Abroad.

The less the United States, through n
protective tariff, imports of the things
that its own labor at home can manu-
facture just as well as foreigners, the
more it is able to import of neccssaries
and luxuries that cannot be purchased
ut home. The consumption of coffee per
capita in the United States, which in
1890 was eight pounds, is now twelve
pounds. Our imports of sugar, teas.
spices, silks, laces. etc, have increased
considerably during the last eight years.
With the American workingman sure of
good home market for what he pro-
duces. it goes almost without saying that
he will have enough money to buy for
himself foreign Injuries that he could
not dream of having in Democratic times

Continuation of Prosperity Will Do
Much to Secure 1t.
The Democratic platform accuses the
Republican party of an attempt to kin
die anew the embers Of racial and sec-
tional strife"
An incident at the recent American
Bankers convention in New York illus
trated the falsity of this statement uni
how. on the contrary, the Republican
party, by policies which promote tho
business prosperity OF the South has
promoted also feeling of mutual good
will between the better elements, at least,
OF the two races.
A colOred banker from Richmond, Va,
John w. Mitchell. made speech which
brought forth tremendous applause, in
which the delegates from the South join
ed with the delegates from the North.
Mr.. Mitchell said he attended the con-
vention not only with the consent, but
upon the advice. Of the white business
men Of the South. He then went on to
show how the prosperity of the Southern
negroes was continually increasing, and
that this was leading all the time to a
better understanding between the better
elements of the two races. As to the
share OF the negro in the present phenom-
cnnl prosperity of the South he said:
Do yon know That we produce s172. 12s. 600

OF the Southern prosperity our people pro-
duce heavy proportion OF the tobacco

When he had finished, Col. Robert
Lowry, Georgia banker, made al elo-
quent speech in which he said: SIT is tho
loaiing negro and the loafing white man
that makes it hard" and that 1T gives
me great deal of pleasure to hear from
our colored brother of Virginia. He has
stated the facts, and l am glad to have

Republican prosperity, like the rays of
the sun, disDels gloom wherever it goes,
and, without distinctions as to section,
race, color or religion, makes men hap
per, better and more mindful OF their re-
sponsiblites to society. 1t fulflls in de-
tail w. j. Bryan's definition of pros
perity which ''reaches the masses and
then works up and through every class"

at the present time to prevent any of
the trusts from rcm lining prosperous
