Jacksonville's Example.

JacksonVille's Example.
Jacksonville is in debt about one
million seven hundred and siXty-eight
thousand dollars, yet her latest install
ment of bonds sold this week for a
premium of over 10 per cent The
reason of it is that Jacksonville owns
her water works and lighting plant,
receiving from them a net income OF
about a hundred thousand a year
which, if you will think about it. and
figure on it a little, pays the interest
on two millions of 8 per cent bonds.
Municipal ownership in Jackson
vile is a complete success in a good
many respects, If we are to believe the
official and authoritative statements
given out by the city officers. There
is no particular reason why Tampa
cannot manage such business decently
and honestly and profitably as Jack
sOnville does. The coming election
might be a good time to test the pub,
lie opinion on the subject As the
lighting and water plants in this city
city are in the hands of private own,
ership there is no way of getting at
the revenues derived from these
sources, but it is safe to say that the
plants would make good money for
the city at lower rates to private con-
sumers than they are now paying.
That is the experience Of the city on
the st. Johns.-Tampa Times.

MAP or PROJECTED BERIN0
 STRAIT LINE

Capitalists are interested in it and sur veys have been made. It is to begin at the tip of the South American con- tinent, follow the crest of the Andes to the isthmus of Panama, on through Central America and Mexico. into the United States and through Canada to Alaska. Thence it is to cross over to Asia by way of the Boring sea tunnel and on through Siberia and central Asia to the Holy Land and Egypt. where it is to connect with the Cape to Cairo line projected by Cecil Rhodes.
 To do all this would require only half a billion dollars. rather less than congress appropriates at every ses- sion. It took almost as much to con- struct the Transsiberian line. Accord ing to the promoters, the money for the undertaking has already been sub scribed and so conservative a man as Andrew Carnegie has expressed his be- lief that the road will be completed within ten years. It is also stated that MT. Carnegie will finance the line from New York to Buenos Ayres and that he has subscribed s5O.00O for prelimi- nary survey.

difficulty. It is estimated that it will cost S30o,0o0,000 to make the tunnel and the $500 miles of railway It is said that more than half of that enor- nous sum may be secured in America.
 The tunnel under Boring strait seems very formidable at first thought, but viewed in the light of past achieve ments in the same line it is entirely possible. It is only about as far as from New York city to New Brunswick
 N. J., or from the former city to Fire island, in the bay. It would demand rather less excavation than has been made for the New York subways to give a Boring strait tunnel wide enough

 pendoas railroad scheme of the century Visitors to the last Paris ex- position, held in 1900, will remember certain ingenious panoramic railway excursion into Siberia. The illusion was almost perfect. One took passage in real Pullman, heard the customary starting signals of bell and whistle and was presently whirled away into an apparent wilderness of ice and snow which a little exercise of the imagina- tion might easily convert into the bar ren stretches of Siberia.
 It was all very natural. very enjoy able in midsummer and very Gallic. It did not seem to be especially ab- surd or even trivial in that environ ment. The idea of a continuous pas sage from Paris to Siberia might have inspired derision on the boulevards or on the bourse, but within the exposi- tion inclosure it was never criticised. Again, at this present time and with no exposition in progress, we are in- vited-by Frenchman, too-to be pa- tient jus. little while and then to con- tinue our Pullman trip through Siberia to New York. And this time, be it noted, there is no attempt to produce an il- lusion.
 M Liocq de Lobel is the genius who is responsible for the scheme. He has been rather quiet about it, but he has been devoting himself to the project for several years. One of the chief preliminary difficulties has been to se- cure the Russian concession. The czar and his advisers have been uncertain as to the outcome of the undertaking. It has taken them good while to come to conclusion as to the advisability of a railroad connection with the Ameri- can continent.
 Finally, however, 1t has been de- termined that no especial harm can come from the union. and the czar has recently signed ukase authorizing commission to be named by the Rus sian railway commissioners and the making of survey by the route pro- posed for the intercontinental road from Irkutsk to East cape, on Boring sea. M. de Lobel has already made this survey at cost of s5O0,O00, fur nished by Parisian capitalists. This sur- vey by the French company embraced a strip sixteen miles in width from Irkutsk, station OF the Transsiberian road, to Boring sea. This is distance of $500 miles and includes some of the richest agricultural and mining dis tricts in the empire. The French com pany asked for this great body of land as a bonus to aid in the construction of the road. The czar, it appears, has practically consented and little remains but to push on the work as rapidly as possible.
 Of course M. de Lobel is not the in- ventor of the scheme to tunnel Bering strait. That has been discussed by American engineers for the past quar- ter,of century. It was not M. de Lo- bels original intention to resort to the tunnel When he tried first to interest American men of capital in his project he had in mind a ferry plan. It did not seem to him feasible that the thirty six miles of water which separates the

It is fact that men who know absolutely nothing about engineering have been able to dig fortunes almost anywhere in Alaska. This is especially true of the region in the vicinity of the seacoast. Certainly it is not unreason- able to suppose that the tunnel engi- neers will find rich deposits of gold, silver and platinum and perhaps cop per and other valuable metals.
