.Supplying an Army.
MAXV PKItSONH unfamiliar
with war or with mllitaiy
operations have a very
hazy conception of the
pmlilem Involved In conveying and sup
plying nn army on a foreign campaign,
nnie fart" mentioned Incidentally in
Secretary Hoot's recent report shed
light upon this Mibject, and show that
to send 10,000 men many miles by land
and water Into a Minugc country, a
uis dune with tho American part of
the I'ekln lellef expedition, is no
laughing matter. Kor example:
Thu supplies sent from this country
and .Manila to China, in addition to the
ordinary supplies which the troops
e.iniedwith them, included 4, GG6 horses;
-,'U'S mules jnd 222 large army wagons;
.'!1 ambulances: G.2J3 toi.s of oats; 4,(iSt
tons of buy; I,'J1S,."4.". feet of lumber; 7
distilling plants, with capacity of 4,400
gallons jie- day; r,0 .sterilizers; 9,100 gal
lons of oil: 77."! boilers for boiling water;
l.lofl heating stoves with pipe; 5GG
ranges and ovens with utensils: 12
water wagons; 1,000 coffee and wash
boilers; S3.CR0 pounds of hoiseshoes;
120,000 pounds of mule shoes; 20,500
pounds horseshoe nails, and a great
varletv of other articles for black
smiths', wheelwrights', farriers', nnd
carpenters' use; 10,000 wool blankets;
10,000 lined blouses; 14,000 warm caps;
40,000 canton llurinol draweis; 27,000
wool undershirts; 20,000 pairs of wool
gloves; 1S.00O overcoats; 12,000 cam
paign hats; lfi.noi) pairs of arctic over
shoes, 2.",,u0O llannel shirts; 20,000 pairs
of siloes: 20..100 pairs of trousers; S0.0O0
pairs of stockings; 1,303 conical wall
and hospital tents in addition to the
common tents, together with a great
v.nlety of other articles for clothing
and camp use.
In addition to all this, the .subsist
ence depaitment shipped from the
t'nlted States and Manila 10.9S4.620
pounds of subsistence stores; the medi
cal department, in addition to the
equipment of the hospital ship Relief
and the legular medical attendance of
the organizations, sent full equipment
lor a field hospital of 1,000 beds, with
roll medical supplies, and took the nec
essary stops fur the establishment of
an additional base hospital at Nagas
aki; the signal corps piovided all the
material and personnel for the con
mi uctlnu and operation of 23r miles of
teiegiaph line, together with the signal
Hags, heliographs, lanterns, telescopes,
etc., for visual signaling service; en
gineer implements and materials were
shipped fiom Manila, and the ueces-,-aiy
reserve of equipment and aims,
with an adequate equipment of lapic
11 ie guiv. with ammunition, and with
over 1,000,000 rounds of small-anus am
munition, weieiromptly provided fop
by the ordnance department. Then
when tho expedition got to Taku, the
einbaiklng point on the Chinese const,
the gulf was so shallow that the trans
ports hiul to anchor ten miles from
shore and all of the men, animals, ord
nance, and supplies had to be carried
to the landing in small boats, most of
the time in a tempestuous sea.
Those wci ij a few of the iiroblcnis
which had to he solved out of hand by
our .war department last summer In
addition to Its ilKlleulties in Porto
Itlco, Cuba, the United States proper;
Alasltn, Hawaii, and the Philippines.
The present session of congress gives
promise of lowering tho records in" tho
way of rapid transaction of business,
The Eskimos.
IN ,TUIC ANNUAL report of the
"governor of Alaska, attention la
failed to tho necessity for legls-
latlon denning tho legal status
of' tho natives of that territory, who
promise to endow the icpubllc with it
new race problem at no distant duy.
According to Qovernoi Urndy whole
communities of Kskinios have aban
doned tho old style of living nnd have
adopted tho vocations of the whlto
man. Then engage In tho hardest
Ulnd of labor In the mines, logging
camps nnd Eiiwmllls; they work upon
wharves or as, deck hands nr coal
passers on steamships, nnd a few en
gage In mercantile) pur&ults. in no re
spect have they been a burden slnco
American occupation of Alaska began.
They aspire to citizenship, which will
enable them to locate mining claims,
take out licenses as steam engineers
and pilots, and to compote with tho
wlilto cottiers who nro crowding upon
them. If they commit crime they find
th(t they are held nmenable to whlto
man'M5 Jaw; they wish to enjoy Us ben
efits also. Congressional action which
will enable native Alaskans to become
Aiuorlc.an citizens Is strongly urged.
ITpon tho subject of their merits the
governor Is enthuslnstlc. He says:

Then the last state convention was
not n Republican convention but a
Quay convention and tho Record had
no business to support Its nominees. If
the majority has not the right to claim
the party name and sanction, a claim
conceded by the Record with regard to
the nominees of tho last state conven
tion, whoso names It ran at the head of
Its editorial columns during the recent
campaign, It remains to be explained
on what ground tho minority can make
and defend such a claim. Must major
ity rule be waived whenever a minor
ity objects? On that basis how long
could party organization endure?
Canal Estimates.
-MK REPORT of the latest
I iranslsthmian caunl com-
J mission on tho subject of
the Nicaragua waterway
presents some new data. Notable
among these is its estimate of the cost,
?200,ri40,000, for a mean low-water
depth of 3.1 feet with a bottom i width
of ISO feet. This is tho highest cost
estimate yojt put forward, but the
commission figures that a deep and
wide canal would be cheaper In the
end than u smaller one which would
eventually have to be enlarged. A
width of 150 feet will allow all but the
very largest ships to pass each other
in (he canal, while tho locks are of a
dimension to permit even the largest
ships alloat to bo maneuvered. The
size of locks is 740 feet length, SI feet
width in the clear, with a deptli of 35
feet.
The route advocated by the com
mission follows essentially the lines
laid down by the Nicaragua canal
commission in its report of 1S97-1&99.
It begins near Grcytown on the Atlan
tic side, follows tho San Juan river,
enters l,ake Nicaragua and terminates
at lrito on the Pacific side. The dis
tance from ocean to ocean is about ISO
miles. Plans are given for the great
haibors required at Greytown and
Brito. The most difficult engineering
work Is the dam acioss the San Juan
liver to icgulate the waters of th
lake. The time required to build the
canal hinges almost entirely on the
time required for the construction of
this dam. The commission says eight
yeais would probably be a reasonabli!
estimate lor the time of building it.
At least two years will be consumed
in preparatory work and opening a
harbor at Greytown, so that If work
on the dam should bo commenced im
mediately thereafter, the time re
quired for completing the entire work
will be about ten years. The cost es
timate mentioned above can be re
duced 1 9,078,000 if a single instead of
a. double lockage system shall lie
chosen: and .?lo',949,000 further if the
bottom shall be narrowed onc-thlid,
thus bringing tho cost down to $IG'!,
i,U,C00. The estimated cost of the Panama
unite is $142,342,n7fi, which is capable
of i eduction to $115X1,215 by tho uso
of single locks and a nun owed bottom.
The Nicaragua route li favored be
causo its distances are shorter, be
cause it is mote favorable to sailing
vessels because the country through
which it passes la better adapted lo
development, because it is not compli
cated bv grants to foreigners, and be
cause, while a vessel could pass
through the Panama, canal In 12 hours
while requiring 23 aoura to go through
the Nicaragua canal, the distance
from San Fianelsco to New York Is 377
miles, to New Orleans fi79 miles and to
Liverpool 3S0 miles shorter by the Nic
aragua than by tho Panama route,
nunc than making up the difference,
It has been argued that if the United
States should construct the Nicaragua
cunal on terms not exactly satisfac
tory to some of the Kuropenn powors
they might secure control of tho Pan
ama route uiul construct a competitive
canal. The commission naturally docs
not touch upqn this point, but a ifnt.it
reply H available In tho eelobrate
words of Secretary Richard Olney,
written July 20, 1S95- "Today the
United States Is practically sovereign
op this continent, and Its flat Is law
upon tho subjects to whli;h It confines
Its interpositions," Its flat to stop
wciild make short work of any com
petitive) scheme dictated by unfriend
ly purposes.
Dr. Schaeffor advises that the mill
ion dollar state school appropriation, If
restored, shall be used for the "better
ment of schools, and not for tho i educ
tion of locul taxation or in tho pur
chase of useless apparatus and showy
unpllances." Tho opinion ns to what
should not ho done is proper, but
Superintendent Schueffer should be
nioie specific ns to thu manner In
which the fund could best be disposed
of, if he (leslres his advice to have
weight. ,
