How it is Being Used.
The $50,00u,W0 rvccuib appropriated by
Congress lor national defense is being
jupiuiy utilized lor mat purpose, notes tne
liniumguam News in an interesting edi
torial on cue subject. Nearly Half of the
entire sum has already been set apart ox
spent on contracts entered into uy the
war and navy departments. Ot this the
navy u< p.u xxuetit lias spent 7u per cent.
'i ; < Bureau ot Ordnance and the Bureau
oi Equipment of tbe navy nave received
.tue laigest amounts ot tbe appropriation.
'1 he Bureau ol Ordnance has received
about $7,00h,0W in ail thus far.
I‘iiis money is being expended in the
inaiiuiaeiurc ana purchase of large quan
lilitß of shells or various calibres, brown
prismatic and smoke less powuer, torpedo
tubes, guns and in meeting tile expenses
of operating tue big gun factory at the
Avasuiugtou navy yard. At least SI,Uu(),UOO
has been set aside for the current expen
ses of th' 1 high power ordnance shop.
The Bur.au ot Equipment has expended
about jbi.tiOO.UOO in contracts lor coal and
coal storage houses at various points and
lor miscellaneous equipments aud stores
lor ships and naval stations.
The figures include tue sums to be spent
in tue extensive dredging operations now
under way at Port Royal aud Key West,
but do uot include the Sb9O,UOU allotted last
week for dredging, constructions, etc., in
connection with the esiaolishment of the
new naval station at Dry Tortugas.
A considerable sum has also been ex
pended in getting the cruisers Minneapo
lis and Columbia and the Miautonomah
and others monitors ready for sea. The
purchase trom the Brazilian government of
tlfe armored cruiser New Orleans, for
merly the Amazonas, and the Abreuall,
now named the Albany, has Involved the
expenditure of fully $3,000,000. This in
cludes no only the actual purchase price
of the cruisers, but large Incidental ex
penses in the matter of arrangements for |
’the contract, the detail of naval officers |
tor negotiations aud the cost of getting i
•the ships ready to sail for the United
(States.
About $1,000,0000 will be used by the
Bureau of Construction aud Repairs out
oif the national defense appropriation in
completing the repairs to the Newark,
Philadelphia, Yorktown, Charleston, Chi
cago and Atlanta, at Norfolk, Mare Is
land aud (New York navy yards. Were it
not for the fact that this sum is available
from the emergency appropriation, the
completion of these ships would necessari
ly be very much delayed, as the annual
appropriation for this bureau for the re
pairs of ships has beeu exhausted for some
time.
Up to the present time $8,375,000 have
been allotted to the War Department. Two
bureaus of the department only have been
the recipients of this money, the Bureau
of Ordnance and the Engineering Depart
ment. Nearly this entire stun has been
used in contracts now in course of ful
fillment.
The Ordnance department has been cred
ited with $2,500,000. From this about sl,-
000,000 has been used iu contracting for
large orders of brown and smokeless pow
der and armor-piercing shells, aud another
contract for projectiles will be entered into
■this week. Nearly SIOO,OOO has been ex
pended for cartridges for rifles.
Thirty-two rapid tire guns which, were
purchased abroad last week, cost about
$700,000. About $300,000 more will be
spent for gun carriages.
Brigadeir-General Wilson, Chief of En
gineers, has contracted for the expenditure
og about $3,000,000 iu hastening the work
on emplacements, magazines and the
mounting of guns on the Southern and
Kastern coasts.
Tbe greater part of the money for ex
pediting the emergency work is being ex
pended at Key West, Mobile, Pensacola.
New Orleans, and other Southern points.
-About $500,000 is to be spent in planting
torpedoes for harbor defense. The chief of
engineers has at his disposal, it is under
stood, .about $2,000,000 set aside for his
use, but not yet actually expended.
Thus it will be seen that the national
defense fund has come in well, and that it
is being expended in a manner best cal
culated to prepare the country for any
emergency that may come.
Judge Kapp, president of the Interna
tional Commerce Commission, stated a few
days ago, before the Senate committee on
interstate commerce, that the railroads
had so crippled the commission, by their
various proceedings against it, that unless
new- machinery could be provided to ren
der effective the original law, it would be
■well to "take away the power the Inter
state Commerce Commission is supposed
to have. Comment on this pretty state
of things is unnecessary.
Can’t Get a Two-Thirds Vote.
It is now positively announced that the
annexation of Hawaii cannot be accom
plished by treaty, as a two-thirds vote of
the senate cannot be secured for it. Bat
the same end will probably be reached
through a point resolution of Congress.
This is the form which the matter has
now taken, starting in the Senate. The
affair is too largely one of self
ish business interests, but true patriotism
also enters into it in both Houses, and on
both sides of the question. One of the
youngest and ablest senators, for instance,
•who frankly says he is “something of a
jingo”—who is in favor of free Cuba, even
at the expense of war with Spain—is op T
posed to the annexation of Hawaii on
purely American principles, after having
carefully considered all the arguments in
its favor. But, if the treaty should be de
feated, he will at once propose that the
Monroe doctrine be extended to cover the
Hawaiian Islands, and thus to protect
them from absorption by any foreign na
tion.
The action of the state Democratic ex
ecutive committee in deciding that prima
ries shall be held in every county on
June 6th for statehouse officers meets with
the approval of all who are interested in
party harmony and success. This is about
the date primaries have heretofore been
held. The cessation of political strife as
soon as possible is desired. —Dawson News.
Congressman Griggs’ Speech.
Those *tto have predicted great things
for Judge James M. Griggs, of tbe Eleventh
district, in the lower house of congress
have not been disappointed. On the con
trary, he has distinguished himself tar be
yond even their most sanguine expecta
tions by a speech recently delivered in
that body.
Congressman Griggs’ speech has receiv
ed unusual attention at -the hands of the
Northern press, because he discussed what
is to them a most vital matter, and dis
cussed it in away that could no: fail to
impress.
It is very evident that tbe Eleventh dis
trict made no mistake when it sent Jim 1
Griggs to congress. There are few brain
erer young mtn in the country, and we
fail to see where the Eelven-tb district j
could find his equal.
In his speech which baa attracted so
much attention, both in the North and
South, Congressman Griggst’pressnted some i
remarkable quotations on Southern com- j
petition with New Englund cotton manti- I
facture. We reproduce a few of them. I
brom Edward Kilburn, president of the I
New Bedford Spinning Company
1 here is nothing in the claim that the I
Northern mills have been hurt, by South*
ern competition. There is room enough
for ail.”
From the Boston Post:
“It seems that the Arkwright Club gen- ,
tiemen hold it to be necessary to cut the i
wages of their operatives in order to meet ;
a competition which does not exist. There j
is a good deal of humbug in the proclama
tion of the Fall River mill owners. The
Massachusetts mills make fine grades,
altogether outside the competition of !
Southern manufacturers.”
From William C. Pierce, president of
the Elizabeth mills, Providence, R. I.:
I am satisfied that the South today has
many advantages over New England for
manufacturing purposes.”
From O. M. Styles, superintendent, Hoo
sick Falls, N. Y.:
"I have been through the South and
spent some months in different sections.
Your (Northern) advantages for not only
cotton manufactures, but many others, are
great.”
From M. F. Foster, Milford, N. H.:
“It has required a whole decade to sat
isfy tbe New England manufacturer that
tho South possessed advantages over the
North for manufacturing. This has been
fully decided so far as proximity to cotton
and coal fields and climate are concern
ed.”
From T. W. Wilmarth, superintendent
of the Millbury cotton mills, Millbury,
Mass.;
“There are still advantages North that
it will take the South years to gain. There
are natural resources South that the op
posite section never can obtain.”
All things considered, the South would
appear, in the long run, to have the better
of the situation. Mr. Griggs draws the
lesson that both the North and South must
diversify their industries.
Says the Dawson News: "Senator Ste
vens has Commissioner Nesbitt moving
about the state at a lively gait. Next fall
the latter gentleman will move out of the
state house to make room for Commission
er Stevens.”
Will Not Adjourn.
There is to be no premature adjourn
ment of Congress. It has been talked I
about by people who stand for peace and
dollars, with or without honor, and their
organs, of course, favor what they are
paid to advocate. The president has been
charged with complicity in their design
of not having "Congress on his bands,” he
that they cun the better influence him.
But he has denied the imputation, and
there, is no doubt that he feels the need of
Congress both to take responsibility and
to sustain him in his acts. Anyhow a poll
of Congress was taken a day of two ago
on the question—■
“Are you in favor of the adjournment of
■Congress before the report of the Maine
disaster is received and before a settle
ment of the Cuban question is made?”
Total number of nays, House and Sen
ate, 207.
Total number of yeas, House and Sen
ate, 8.
Total number of non-committal, House
and Senate, 93.
Mr. P. J. Beckermans, the best authori
ty on fruit in Georgia, says do not accept
the estimates of the fruit crop until after
April 10. We are not past the possible
danger from frost until then.
The Case in a Nutshell.
The Augusta Chronicle sizes up the
racket about a snap primary in a very
few words. It says the racket being
worked by Colonel Candler’s opponents is
an old story.
Why is it any more of a snap primary
for him than for Colonel Candler? pointed
ly asks the Chronicle. They both have the
same time in which to get over the state,
and visit the counties, and if Mr. Berner
has not sufficient time in which to visit
them all, neither has Colonel Candler. But
they say Colonel Candler was in the field
first and got a start of the others. Well,
if ithis is true there is no way in which
this can be done. If he was in the field
a month longer than the others he will
continue to hold this distiction in July,
just the same as in June. They knew the
race was going to come off just as well as
Colonel Candler knew it, and they had the
same right to come in that he had.
In a few days Miss Bradley will pour
water over the troubled prow of the Ken
tucky.
Where Gage is Right.
Secretary Gage, of the treasury, an
nounces in his latest speech that the finan
cial battle must be fought over again. His
words are:
“We must be ready to vote again upon
the main issue. We do not fear its re
sults. Nevertheless, the offset of the coa
lition between revolutionized Democracy,
Silver Republicanism, and fiat-teaching
Populism will be pushed with both vigor
and zeal. Already the leaders are bring
ing their skirmishers into line for the Con
gressional contest contests of next au
tumn.”
Nobody disputes 'Mr. Gage on this one
point. The financial fight is not done.
Some think it has just begun.
Says the Columbus Enquirer-Sun:
“Senator Bacon, of Georgia, offers the only
proper solution of the Hawaiian question
in an amendment offered to the annexation
resolution, which provides that the reso
lution shall not become effective until the
people have voted upon the question o'
annexation. This is Democratic, but it
may not suit the senators. Those w’ho favor
annexation know’ that it v.ill never do to
leave this question to the people. Tbe
people are not looking for leprosy.”
•Mank Hanna has a profound sense of bi-:
public usefulness at Washington. He is
reported to have said re?m:lv in regard to
his senatorial contest in Ohio, “My defeat
would have been a national calamity.”
That Georgia judge who broke a bottle
over the prow of an Atlanta editor must
have been laboring under the impression
that he was launching a battleship.—Mem
phis Commercial-Appeal.
Senator .Mason says be v.ill fight tbe
Spaniard who recently challenged him to
moral combat. The place will be Klon
dike, and the time a year after the Cuban
independence.
The Savannah Press observes that the
navy department would have won addi
tional glory if it had purchased the O’Hig
gins on St. Patrick’s Day.
The Maryland General Assembly has
demanded Senator Wellington’s resigna
tion because he is not acting to please that
body.

An Earthquake Warms a Spring,
And now another phenomenon can be
attributed to tbe earthquake of last No
vember, which shook things so generally
in Montana. In Helena it was reported
that a deaf mute had found speech as the
result ot the earth shaking Itself.
Senator Alex Metzel of Twin Bridges,
or, as he calls it, Fuller Springs, so named
from a famous hot spring on his ranch,
says that the quake increased the temper
ature of the water of tho springs a dozen
degrees. r i’ho day after the earth trembled
one of the senator’s sons thought he would
go out to the springs and take a bath, as
was his custom. He got into tho pool, and
then he got out, for he found the water
unusually hot. A thermometer w’as
brought into use, and it was found that
the temperature was over 110 F. Before
the earthquake it was along in the nine
ties. Several tests of the temperature tak
en since the earthquake have shown the
same considerable increase over what it
was before the earthquake.
“I am firmly convinced that tho in
ternal troubles that resulted in tho earth
quake turned on a warmer supply of wa
ter and raised the temperature of my
spring’s from 10 to 20 degrees, ” said Sen
ator Metzel. “Wehave been keeping track
i>f tbe temperature of the springs for years.
It never increased or decreased until the
change that was noted the day after the
earthquake. I was in the east at the time,
so I cannot vouch for this part of the story,
but tbe boys say that besides being warm
er tbe water for two days after the shock
was milky white.”—Helena Herald.
