the oldest of the thirteen original,

in one of the newest of the far western |
. states. The Nashvile and the Wilm- A

since October 19, and are rapidly ap-

Aside from their particularities of ©
"hall and equipment, the eae es
able thing ahvat these gunboats is their
low cost. According to the provision §
Tes mm thee
were to be built for not more than
$400,000 each, and the Helena was con-
‘tracted for at the extremely low price
of $280,000, exclusive of armament and
speed premiums. This is considerably
joss than the price paid for any other
‘vessels of like class now in the navy or
about to go into commission. The
other great shipbuilding firms, like the
Cramps, the Bath Iron Works and the
Union Iron Works of San Francisco,
‘were not a little surprised af this bid,
~ and it really marked the beginning of
an era of lower cost warships. Two
months ago the Newport News com:
pany contracted for the building of the
battle ships Kearsage and Kentucky
under competitive bidding, and at
i what sre considered very low figures. |
These facts are here cited becanse of
their significance in the upbuilding of
the United States navy. This govern
ment was a long time awakening ‘ol

papers that Mississippi had solved the
prison labor problem by establishing
farms upon which to employ convicts, |
says the Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph.
The statistics given are obviously
gromly wrong, since no kind of farm- |
ing can realize 150 per cent. annual |
profit on the capital ootlay, but the
idea of employing prisoners, sapecially
those. who bave earned the highest
grade for good behavior in peniten- |
tiarigs and prisons on farms would be |
worthy of consideration.
Our prison
authorities have much difficulty in
finding employment for convicts, and
the raising of farm products might be

colony could easily be made at least
self-sustaining.
YE CONCERN —
_ Philadelphia has long been clamor
ig for # chased 10 the sea which will
accommodate any and all classes of
~ shipping. This want is not the con-
cern of Philadelphia by any means, it
is something which Pennsylvania is |
_interveted and should be interested
to such an extent that the improve |
ment would be made without the loss
of any more time nnoecessarily. The
‘commercial progress of the Keystone
. ‘Btate demands that a good harbor be
made in the Delaware tidewater. The
‘State's majestic march at the head of
the industrial column is something in |
which the interior inhabitants have |
material interests and take as much!
pride as Philadelphiavs.
