One of the most pleaSurable results OF
Yesterdays voting was the handsome
tribute Southeastern Alaska paid to
Governor Swiueford. The practically
unanimous support Of Sksgwsy and
Hsines has been backed up by sub
stantial majorities at the Gastineau
channel cities. That is an endorsement
that was worth while, and one that
gives a very proper rebuke to the small
bore enemies of the grand old man
who has led AlaSka's battle for freedom
for two decades.

HERSELF
DID
PROUD
SKAGwAY

Sksgwsy did herself proud at yester-
DAYS election. The voters Of the town
cast their lot with the candidates who
stood for self-government without
question; for those who represented
issues:for those about whose candidates.
there we're no hidden traps or unseen
wires, and they voted with 3 unanlmi'y
that is rarely equslled In country
where every man acts for himself.
The vote could have been some lsrg-
er-probably so or 60 persons retrsined
from casting their ballots who should
have done so, but when it is considered
that there was little revalry, and that
none of the candidates were local
psople,in whom all the voters took an
interest aside from their public duty IN
the premises, it must be admitted that
: good showing was made.
Skagway's vote will count for more
in the summing up than will that OF
most of the towns for the reason that II
was thrown one way. A majority OF
200 is q large one for town OF 1000
votes. Skagway did better than that
for her fsvorites, and she had to cast
only 26S votes TO do It.
At the time OF writing this the returns
sre to meagre too know with certainty
the outcome Of the election, but 1t IS
safe to says that Skagway will not lose
both Of her candidates.

III" derlarti for Cheaper transportation.
In spite of the apparent lethargy Of the
maritime powers. national and local, in
awakening to the situation of port re-
quirements, the size and draught of YES
sells are still increasing.
"A detail Of navigation requirements
not often referred to is the depth needed
under We, sells in the entrance channels.
A ship mo, wing at even low speed, say 8
knots an hour, will have a greater
draught than in deep water. As is said
in nautical language, she 'squats.' The
water between her and the bed of the
channel is driven out, and often the ship
will actually drag on the bottom, while
IL stationary there would be a foot and
a half Of water under the keel. In the
entrance channels Of New York harbor
this is a we'll known fact. For this rea-
son alone, to say nothing Of the usual
requirement of considerable space be-
tween the ships keel and the bottom
due to vertical movement OF the ship in
a seaway, there should be not less than
three and a half feet in the entrance
channels between the deepest draught
vessels and the bed of the channel.
"The ports Of the world must meet the
commercial requirements of the age by
a marked and continual enlargement Of
facilities, and those who control their
policy should study carefully the re-
quirements of steamships and, looking
to the future. lay their plans adequately
and wisely to meet these ever increasing
requirements"
Data collected by Mr.. Corthell to show
what is being done to provide a suitable
depth Of water for larger vessels shows
that there are 1888 ports which now have
a depth Of entrance channel of less than
thirty feet at low water, and 70 which
have q depth of more than thirty feet.
When all the channels are deepened a.
now proposed, the number having more
than thirty feet in the channels at low
water will be increased to 81. Ninety
five ports now have less than thirty feet
Of water in the entrance channels at high
water. and II3 have more than thirty
feet. When improvements now under
way are completed the number having
more than thirty feet at high water will
Ike I36.
The most fortunate port in the United
States in this respect is Tacoma, where
the entrance channel IS five hundred feet
deep and the depth at the wharves is
forty to forty-eight feet. Seattle m
next with a channel two hundred feet
deep and q depth at the wharves Of
thiIty-seven to fourty-four feet. New
York will be third when the Ambrose
channel Is completed to give . depth Of
forty feet at mean low water. and New
Orleans will be fourth with . depth Of
thirty five feet.
Morgan County republican. (Versailles, Mo.) 1906-1914, 1906-09-06

should do so. II is unnecessary to re-
peat the arguments OF commercial men
regarding the reduction IN the cost Of
transportation by increasing the size Of
the mass to be moved. The natural out
come Of the present tendency OF trans
| portation, both on land and water, is to
increase the volume to be moved; larger
cars and longer trains and more power
full locomotives 10 move them on the
land, and larger ships and greater power
on the sea. The competition Of com-
tries and ports with one another, and
the necessity Of reaching the markets Of
consumption by distant producers all
serve to increase the freight capacity OF
steamships; and the longer the COURSE
the greater the demand for size.
"A very important feature Of the sub
ject is the urgent necessity Of increasing
the draught Of steamships. The length
and breadth have far o%u'strippcd this
other most important dimension, The
| draught, Of course. is rigidly limited
by the depth Of water in channels and
| at docks.
"The reasons mistakenly and persist

"The Moldavia, Of the Pcninsular and
Oriental Line, OH a draught Of II feet

cargo. Each additional foot Of draughi
gives an increased carrying power OF
about ESQ tons. Three feet increase

capacity. There would be some de

dicted an increase in the mex five years
to a length of $40 feet, a breadth of
618 feet, a draught of ao4 feet and a
gross tonnage of 1894. When the five
years had elapsed the actual dimensions
were found to be: Length, G4o feet ;
breadth, go feet; draught, 32I feet;
gross tonnage, I7,T5r. Steamships of
500 feet or more in length had increased
from twenty-five to ninety three-an in
crease Of .3a3 per cent, Now Mr., Cort-
hell predicts that in 1913 there will be
a total Of I6,6Ss steamships, represent
ing a total tonnage Of 4~s,ooo,ooo, or an
average OF 400 tons. The average di-
mansions Of the largest twenty steam
ships will be; Length, 1000 feet
breadth. 100 feet; draught, 80 feet
gross tonnage. 10000.
Other interesting features Of Mr..
Corthcll's predictions, which are based
on the developments Of the past, are that
the speed Of the fastest steamships in
1913 viii be thirty knots. that the total
number OF sailing vessels will have de-
creased from s6.28I in 1873 TO Io,Sno in
1913, and their tonnage from I4,IS5,836
to 3,24I,ooo. The weight Of sea-borne
commerce in 1913 will have increased
to 43s,ooo,ooo tons. and the value Of the
combined exports of the leading ten ma
tons of the globe will have reached the
stupendous total OF $Io,ooo,ooo.ooo.
In discussing the outlook for the fu-
ture Mr.. Corthell said:
"There is no reason why steamships
should not continue 10 increase in size,
and there is every reason why they

portions Of steamships. but for greater
capacity and greater economy Of trans
porlationl are OF the strongest and most
convincing character. As the displace-
ment OF a steamship is increased by in
creaslng the draught, the power required
TO drive a ton Of displacement at a given
speed is reduced. Some instances of the
limitation. Of draught may be cited to
show how important is the question OF
providing greater draught and greater
depth Of channels to meet this drauglt.
The Deutschland. N Of the largest YES
sells Of to-day, like all the swiftest mail
steamers, carries very little freight be-
cause Of the limits imposed by her de-
parture draught. 1t has been stated that
this great ship Of more than 5000 tons
displacement can carry only 800 to GOO
tons Of cargo. II her draught could be
increased one foot, about $50 tons more
cargo could be carried. and two feet in
crease would represent abou, 1900 tons
more cargo. The freight earning ca
pacity would thus be nearly trcbled for
