Their Baal Sentiment. Fresuminr that honors have been even In the matter of the exposures. It la apparent to politicians here of all par ties who talk their real sentiments, that all else has been swept aside before tho one question or tne cersonalltv of the two nominees Bryan and Taft, and that the ethical must be the Issue. It haa been forced to the front: notwithstand ing politicians try to make other Issues Interest. the people. Some thouKht that President Jtcose- velt's jumping into the midst of partisan ponuca, in aeriance or an conceptions or executive propriety, - would settle the matter. It hasn't. It hasn't by a million miles.

If they prove to be wrong?" Managers Desperate. It is obvious that Mr. Bryan realizes that around him In some Instances are men wno woum Detter Do ousted; and it is equally obvious that the Taft man agers were desperate and had to fall back on the personal Itv of Mr Dmu. velt, depending rather on the Influence of the man who is about to leave the White House than on the man whnm they are trying to nut Into th wi.it House.

While- the government cut tha time for , the work considerably lower than has been the custom for battleships, the company Is determined to pare off at least one half a yerr from the require ments. Should It succeed the ship building records for heavy fighting ves sels would have a new red letter entry. The North Dakota's keel was laid a lit tle before that of her sister ship, the Delaware,- at New port News, but not enough to account for the 12 per cent extra work that has been done so far. The North Dakota la to be launched on November 9. The builders antici pate she will be 65 per cent finished at' and two others are . on their way. Twelve boilers in all are required to furnish the motive power for the 25,000 combined horse power of the turbine engines to be Installed. This powerful tnrblne must drive the battleship through the water at a rate of at least 21 knots an hour on the four hours' trial run if the contract. la to be ful filled. The officials of the company confidently assert they will be able to do this and to go the governmenMnhe better, making at least 22 knota apeed. If this can be done it will be a record to be proud of, for It will .eclipse the world's present record of the Dread naught's 21 knots, and that for a con siderably larger battleship. As her great bulk now lies In the stays at Qulncy, with three mammoth cranes working over her and some 600 men swarming ner aecits ana scatroiaing, some idea may be gained or the enormity and value of the new battleship.
