1T is ABSURD.

Rivalry for naval supremacy. espec
tally among the nations of the Ola
World, continues with Undated zeal
The recent announcements that Italy
is building a hattleship bigger aud
more powerful than the much talkeA
of Dreadnaught, has already caused
a panic among certain patriotic Brit,
ons who regard il as downright
outrage,
Tho Dreadnaught. with It's 1880
tons displacement It's IL Inch gums
and It's ability TO throw $500 pounds
OF metal In broadside was looked
upon as the actual limit III battle
ship architecture. However the ltm
ian boat is to be both speedior and
more formidable, having l3Inch guns
and throwing broadside weighing
10000 pounds. AS such n vossei
could pick it's own battle-ground ana
smash a half dozen Dreadnaughts in
detail nom safe distance, there is
now frenzied demand that the Brit
ish government proceed to build some,
thing still larger, Viewed in this light
the situation presented is an ahsur
dity. Commenting on the phase of II
the Chicago News says:
"Italy's ambitious effort and Great
Bri0an's consequent jealousy
typify the competition that has been
going on among the first class sea
powers, which are watching and i'm
itating one another with a zeal truly
comic.
France. which in 1901 was content
to build $4,000 ton battleshtps, saw
its neighbor aIross the channel au.
thorizing ships of 10000 tons ana
made haste to plan six ships of As,
900 tons, Germany, which was laying
down vessels at ll.0O0 aud $4,000 tons
a few years ago, also arranged 20 have
its next battleships of $4,000 tons
Russia and Japan are also following
suit and the late session OF congress

THE PORT RATE QUESTION.

DO the wholesale merchants Of
Brunswick object to a cheaper freight
rate to all interiour points in the
state of Georgia. !
II so. then they do not want 10
see the railroad commission force the
railroads TO adopt rates common /
ly called port rates.
That's all there is to it and it does
not take a very wise man to find the |
logical cnclusion. Hon. Hoke Smith
insists that there should be no cor.
fusion between steamship lines aud
railroad lines whereby one class OIL
transportation companies are permit
ted to charge about one third mOreI
for the same class of freight THANH
It permits lines NOT THUS COM
BINiSD TO CHARGE
The operation of port rates in botnI
Brunswick and Savannah would serve
to stimulate the jobbing business of
the two ports, for ii would WORK
such reductions in freight rates that
merchants at the interior points would
seek the wholesale markets Of Bruins
wick aud Savannah
That the matter may be made clear
to the average mind II is wei
to study the following statement, made
by Mr.. Smith on the subject:
1.-THE port rate fight is simply an
effort 10 compel the railroad ,mpan.
les to give lower rates from the ports
to interior points.
1.-THE railroads, in combination vita
certain steamship lines, receive Ger.
tain rates on different classes Of
freight. If freight is brought to btans
wick or Savannah by independent
boats, the railroad commission ocr
nnits the railroads to charge about
one-third more tina nthe railroads re,
ceive when the freight Is bronuht 10
our ports by the steamboats, alono
with which they are in combination.
~ insist that the railroad commits.
sion should reduce the rates from our
ports to all lnteriour points and com
pei the owners to charge no higher
rates when an independent vessel
brings the freight to Brunswick or
Savannah than they charge when the
lines with which they are in combin-
alton bring the freight.
1.-THE effect OF this reduction Of
rates would be to give far better rates
all over Georgia to the jobblng trade
of Brunswick and Savannah. Nothing
les that would help them so much I'll
would also bring independent ships
into our ports"
Surely there is nothing palmer than
these simple words and the business
men of Brunswick should ponder oven
them before voting in the primary
next week

Des Moines, March 27.--In one Of
the closest municipal elections ever re-
corded in the, history of Des Moines
politics, Mayor George W. Mattern, re-
publican, won over G. o. Holly, citi-
zens' candidate, by the narrow margin
Of 234. It was not only close shave
for the present mayor, but for a time
when the election returns were incom-
piete caused even his most sanguine
friends to feel alarm. The total vote
was: Mattern, 1888; Holly, 1924.
Other successful candidates follow:
