Smith in primary campaign speeches. ““Tn all the time I have known Mayor Hylan,” Mr. Hearst wrote, "I have never asked a favor of him. nor has he asked one of me. 1 have never even discussed his political acts with him privately He praised the mayor as a man of sterling character and genuine ability ‘an inspiration to every poor Amer- ican boy and rich one, too." ‘Because of Hylan clean and ca pable administration.” Mr. Hearst con tinued, “some decency had reflected on the Democratic local organization and Tammany Hall almost ceased to stench in the nostrils of the | Nation.

Hylan and elect him. But the New York City organiza- tion does not want Hylan any more than they wanted Tilden or any more than they wanted Cleveland.” Gov. Smith, in his first speech of the campaign, accused Mayor Hylan of ‘blind, . obedient subservience to a super-hoss.” The governor has re- ferred directlv to Mr. Hearst since then and on Saturday night said the mavor was “groveling at the feet” of the publisher. All Candidates Confident. The beginning of the last full week of the campaign finds all candidates professing confidence. Mayor Hylan's supporters claim his renomination by more than 75,000, while Tammany | leaders predict the nomination of State Senator Walker by at least 60,- 000.

From the Popular Mechanics Magazine. With the successful laying of the | second Atlantic cable in 1866, the pio- neer work of submarine telegraphy ceased, for sufficient experience had been gained by that time to insure a | fair prospect of success in all further undertakings. The cost of an ocean cable depends upon the type, for some contain but ' one conducting wire, such as the At. lantic type, while others have 4, 7, 16, or as many as 28 cores. The latter usually cross rivers and harbors. To take an average of tvpes. the cost may be said to work out at about 25,000 a mile, more than seven times the cost of a land line, and for repair. ing about $250 a mile.
