Thaw began the routine of a simple
life, which the authorities at the hos

the Tombs prison in New York city
seem like the height OF gaiety in COM

the slightest concern. He arose in the

being restricted to spoons. Thaw
seemed much refreshed from his sound

FLEETS LONG TRIP
COSTS S27, 100000

WASHINGTON, December I3.-On
the top of the list of things that cost
money stands the modern battleship.
The estimate of $4,454,5 submitted
to Congress by the Navy Department,
to cover repairs to be made to several
ships during the fiscal year that will
begin on July l next, is not even
bagatelle in comparison with the cost
of the world-girdling cruise that will
end on Washington's s birthday.
During the cruise not less than $27.-
100000 will have vanished with the
smoke from the tunnels of Admiral
Sperry's sixteen bulldogs and the aux
iliaries accompanying them. Careful
estimates show that it costs about
ST., ,107,0 900 to maintain the battleships
of that fleet and that the maintenance
charge on account of the auxiliaries is
not less than $5,0OO,OOO. The ships
viii be gone for substantially one and
a fourth years. In round numbers,
therefore, the cost will be substantial
ly $27, 100000.
The estimate as 10 the cost of the
cruise does not include charges that
could reasonably be put to the main
tenance account. To make the cost
appear just as it should. each ships
proportion of the whole expense
run the cost up to $6O,0OO.00O, because
the feet constitutes nearly two-thirds
of the entire navy. |

II BrYan Should BE Elected.

(F'rOm the Philadelphia Ledger, Ind.
Two letters have been received from
readers who touch on the intensely
practical aspects of the campaign. A
business man wishes to know what, in
ali human probability, would become of
business and of our wonted and desired
prosperity if, perchance Bryan and Il
Bryan administration should be chosen,
and blunt, intelligent worllingman,
whose letter is too long for publication,
says that there is a ''lot of blather" in
politics, and he would like to know
what the ordinary skilled workman is
to get if Bryan is elected and what
Taft has to offer"
Those two inquiries embody a large
part of the pertinent question for the
mass of the nation, and the gist Of the
answer may be given in a few words ::
If Taft be elected there will be rest, re-
cuperation, confidence and prosperity !;
ii Bryan be elected there will be acute
danger of unrest, lack of confidence
and uncertainty at least for a long time,
and the probability of prolongation
of resuscitation of that stagnation from
which the country is now by slow, Ia
recover.
The country is just beginning to re-
cover from the industrial paralysis.
The crops are passing fair; the people
of the nation are rich; our institutions
are all sound; every known factor and
material influence concerned in the re-
turn of immediate, Astounding, astound-
ing activity and prosperity is present
save only-complete restoration of con-
fidence. The only known or conceivable
influence which acts to retard manufac-
turing and general industrial operations
and the full employment of all work
ers at this time is the lingering politi-
cal unrest and the knowledge that a
presidential campaign must be held be-
fore the atmosphere is finally cleared,
so that ''cowardly capital will trust its
head forth again from its safe deposit
