lite PreServers
Apn Motor Vessels.

Previous to the passage and approx
81 Of An Act to Amend Section s26
Of fhe Revised Statutes Of the United
States; Regulation Of Motor Boats"
there was no law, under which the
Aowners Of small vessels, propelled
Bther than by steam power, could be
tcCmpelled to provide safety appli-
hnces for use Of passengers in case Of
iaccident. Many Of the little vessels
plying Pensacola Bay have been at
.'&imes outrageously overloaded and,
had an accident occurred unoer such
conditions the loss Of life by drown
Eng would unQuestionably have been
great
II Is now obligatory upon owners
OF small vessels. propelled by motor
and carrying passengers for hire, to
provide a life preserver for each pas
Eenger carried, and each vessel car
Fying passengers must be in COM
mand of a man duly licensed for
such service.
That portion Of the law applying 10
launches is as follows:
All vessels of fifteen gross tons or
aess propelled in whole or in part by
gas, gasoline, petroleum, nRpthR. fluid,
or electricity, and carrying passen-
gers for hire, shall carry one lie
preserver, OF the sort prescribed by
the regulations Of the board of super
vising inspectors, for every passenger
carried and no such boat while so
carrying passengers shall be operated
or naYigated except in charge Of a
person duly licensed for such ser
vice by the local board Of inspectors.
No examination shall be required as
a condition OF the obtaining Of such a
license. ana any such license shall be
revoked or suspended by the local
board of inspectors for misconduct,
gross negligence, recl1lessness in nav
agation, intemperanoe, or violation of
law on the part Of the holder, and il
revoked, the person holding such H.
cense shall be incapable of obtaining
smother such license for one year
from the date Of revocation.
A penalty Of $500 is provided for
violation of the law, for not carrying
life reservoirs as required by 6he
act.
The law is a good one, and should I
Rave been enacted long ago, but the /
trainers Of it SHOULD have gone a step
farther and provided for at least one
inspection Of vessels under is tons

POWER FROM GARBAGE.
Sioux City Register.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES %%%z%~a

AT a meeting of the City Council re-
Gently a resolution was carried re-.
OF esting City Chemist w. Lee Lewis
tc make an investigation into the pos.
sibilty Of making denatured alcohol
from the garbage collected in Sioux
City, the alcohol to be used as fuel
to operate the light engines in the
city buildings.
Alderman Maxiener subsequently
declared that with Chemist w. Lee
Lewis he took two buckets of garbage
from his bakery kitchen, and they
made quantity Of alcohol full equal
to any ever made from any kind OF
wood" AS soon as inventions are
completed to make it possible to. use
alcohol to run the light plant in the
city building and library building, the
city of Sioux City proposes to dis
pose of the garbage of the entire city
by converting it into fuel fluid.
The potato Feelings and biscuits
chicken bones. apple cores, vegetables
and cherry seeds will all be boiled up
together and converted into power
for thousands of electric lights.
Mr.. Lewis, who is professor of
chemistry in Morningside College
laboratory, said regarding the plan:
Il am sure it is practical Garbage
when properly treated. makes the best
kind of wood alcohol. believe the
garbage Of Sioux City would run the
municipal plants and the plant nee
essary to make the alcohol. 1t is GER
tainly an economical proposition,
rivaling the idea of Victor Hugo that
France loses 100000 every year
by allowing the sewage to drain into
the ocean, wh9n 1t should be put in
the vineyards.
I shall prepare the plans for the
Sioux City plant, and We will be, in
am probability, the first city in the
United States to have such a plant"

that If the president is correct in his
calculations the canal on the lock
plan viii be completed within the
next eight years.
Some time ago it became evident
rot only to the country but the presi-
dent as well, that if the canal was to
be built at all the first thing TO de-
eide was the kind Of canal It should
&c. But it is known now that the
president had made up his mind that
it should be a lock canal, because
that type of waterway would save
more than , hundred millions of DOL
lars to the government, and the work
could be completed in five or six
years less time than would be re-
quired to build a sea-level canal,
That the people Of the country sus-
tanned the position of the president
in favor of the lock plan was shown
by the large vote in the House for
that kind of canal Therefore the
prospect OF a deadlock between the
senate and House on the question of
the type Of the canal had no terrors
for him. Under the provisions of the
original law known as the Spooner
act the president had the authority
to act upon his own initiative in the
matter Of building the canal ana he
was prepared to go ahead with the
canal work on the lock plan.
Now that the type Of the canal has
been finally determined a great many
persons now alive will be able to
celebrate the opening of the water
way. but they would have been de-
MED this pleasure had it been decid-
ed to build the canal on a sea level.
because even the engineers were in
doubt as to how long a time would
be required to build that type OF
canal, the estimates varying from fif
teen to twenty years,

STRENGTHENS MOSQUITO
TRANSMISSION THEORY

Editor The Pensacola Journal:
In Fridays edition of The Journal
1 note a letter from an Enquirer
asking how yellow fever epidemics
are to be accounted for in lattitudes
as high as Philadelphia, New York,
and even the New England coast in
accordance with the mosquito theory
OF transmission.
In reply / would like to state that
Philadelphia and New York are sea
port towns. And the fact of yellow
fever occurring at that latitude only
along the coast and not in the inter.
Tor. strengthens the mOsqui.0 theory
Of the transmission of the disease.
For il Is a well known fact that yes
sells are a very common means for
the transportation of the stegomyia
mosquito.
So any vessel coming from South
America, Central America, the West
hides etc, during the summer
months, is liable to be the means of
importing hosts of mosquitoes, al
ready infected with yellow fever and
capable Of inOculating the unfortun-
ate victims whom they bite.

~ the matter:
We think the state executive COM
miutee correctly represented the al
most unanimous opinion Of the Dem

Mr.. Bryan as the next presidential
candidate and tariff reform as the
leading issue. OF course any decision
as TO the next presidential campaign

we Go not think that anything can
happen during the next two years
that would reverse the opinion the
committee expressed.
Certainly the Bryan wing Of the
party will control in 1908 as il aid in
1896 and 1900 and could have done
IN 1904. In fact We are not sure that
there is now any other wing OF the

NOW LET THE DIRT
FLY AT PANAMA,
New Orleans States.

The vote Of the senate for a lock
canal at Panama when il was known
10 favor a sea-level plan must be put
down as another victory for the "big
stick" Two weeks before a vote was
taken on the question it was quite
well known that a majority in the
senate stood for a sea-level canal, and
when President Roosevelt became
convince6 OF this fact he caused his
friends 70 announce that il an appro-
priation bill came to the White House
providing for the construction of the
Panama waterway on a sea-level he
would veto the measure and thus
necessitate the calling of an extra
session. This glimpse of the big
stick" IL seems was sufficient to cause
the senate to retreat from its posi-
ton and the lock plan went through.
The result of course, was very
pleasing to the president and he has
instructed the Panama Commission
ers and engineers that there must not
be any delay in making the dirt
ny" II this Is not done now there
will be no excuse for the failure to do
Il, because the slow progress of the
work has been attributed to the In
ability Of the engineers to make
greater Roadway until the type Of the
canal was decided upon. Now that
this question has been settled, anal
from ali accounts a serious obstacle
