THE New York Herald had an inter
view with ex Secretary Whitney. now in
London, on the subject Of ip-building.
He mentions the bill in Parliment for the
appropriation of 800, 600. 600 for naval
construction during the next four years.
He says the amounts are not so surpris-
ing to an American as the ability to
eXpend them in naval ship-building and
carry on the commercial ship-building
at the same time. He said.
President Clevelands administration
should be credited not merely with what
has thus far been actually done In the
way Of construction, but with the fact
that we can now create enthely from our
own resources every modern i'm plement
Of war Of the highest character, includ-
ing war vessels Of the highest types
with their guns and armor. Upon the
accession Of President Cleveland
to power neither armor nor high
/ powered guns Of calibre above
eight inches nor secondary bat
teries could be had in the United States
and in the previous twenty wears there
had not been built altogether ten war
vessels. The enormous appropriations
had been spent in repairs upon old
wooden ships which were really worth
less.
President Cleveland's administration
reversed the policy of the former admin
istration, allowed the old, worthless navy
to die a natural death, aud began the con
struction Of modern armored ships o.
over 1000 tons. There are seven o.
these armored cruisers Of an average o.
1000 tons to attain a speed of nineteeI
knots an hours In this class Of vessel
this country will soon rank second I,
England. If the tariff were reduced S,
that lumber and supplies could be pro
cured cheaply here the ship building in
dustry would exceed that Of England il
ten years and the United States woul,
, supply the ships for the world.

In 1884 the Republican platform pro-

pressed The Rochester, n. Y. Democrat

another Republican paper that has de-
nounced the subsidy policy. In speaking
on this question in June, 1886, that
paper said "Public opinion is against
direct subsidies, and likely to be more
and more against them in the future.
The hard business sense Of the American
people teaches them that a commercial
enterprise which will not pay Of itself
had better be dropped. The Express
also declared that mo amount OF argu-
ment can popularize the subsidy policy
and it called upon the Republican leaders
to abandon their advocacy Of it. In both

not probable that they win be able to

We do not think that the sale of liquor
can be stopped while an active demand
for il exists. Strike at the root gentle

the traffic by their patronage; create a

says: Irresponsible parties just in from

of Pine Ridge Sioux, led by Grasshopper,
have come into the Tongue river agency
for the purpose Of getting up a sun dance
among the Cheyennes. Grasshopper has
eluded all attempt on the part of the
agent to arrest him. The Cheyennes
are in sympathy with the Sioux, and the
sun dance will certainly be held unless
the Indians are overawed by the presence
of large body of troops. The
Grow outbreak OF last summer
had its origin in sun dance
gotten up by Grasshopper, and held at
the place where the Sioux and Cheyennes
