MODERN NAVAL POWER.

The display of naval power which was
made by England, at the recent review in
honor of the Emperor of Germany, is not
without practical interest to the United
States. Probably there never was, at any
stage of the worlds history, such a concen-
tration of the latest and most improved ma
val fighting machinery. One hundred and
thirteen men-0f-war were in line, manned
by 1000 Brit h sailors. The difference
between these n pf-war and those OF the
days when Englah as equally noted for
her naval supremaes, is shown by the fact
that the heaviest artillery of Nelson's time
fred ball of 6s pounds, whereas the can
non of these times throws projectile weigh
ing ], 800 pounds II miles. Considering that
in contrast with such a force, the United
States has practically no navy at all, it is
comfortable to reflect that the Government
which owns this remarkable and expensive
collection of the most modern machinery for
ocean warfare has no desire to pick quar-
rel with our Government
In connection with that idea, it is very
pertinent to ask whether it is discreet for us
to collide against such power by q claim
of exclusive ownership of an open sea, while
denying its ownership to bodies of water
that are much more decidedly surrounded
by its territory. Itwould be uncomfortable
to 60 on declaring that we own Behring's

and were taken at once to the Hotel V endome.
The steamer Pilgrim, with the President and
Secretaries Window and Proctor on board, ar
rived at Fall River at 4AM. The distinguished
visitors were not aroused at this hour. how
ever and it was o'clock before they appeared
in :the saloon, when they were greeted on
behalf of the Commonwealth and welcomed
to Massachusetts, by Adjutant General Dalton.
The trip from New York to Fall River was a
pleasant one, with delightful weather and
smooth sea, and the President enjoyed the in
vigorating atmosphere, and freedom from in
trusion which was afforded by the elevated
position on the upper deck, near the pilot
house, where Captain DAVIS pointed out tc him
such objects of interest not already known to

TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
PITTsBURG. THURSDAY. AUG. 8, 1853.
A BRACE OF FoRGERIEs.

A lawyer in Minneapolis, who has COM
mitted forgeries to the tune of $500, 900, fur
nishes his mite to the news of the day. At
the same time the President of New York
street railway company balances the Eastern
side of the news by getting caught in the
issue of some $40, 900 worth of fraudulent
stock certificates. 1t is hardly necessary to
state that both men had been speculating.
OF course, it is not fair to put all the re-
sponsibilIty on speculation. The attempt to
get other peoples money without giving
fair consideration for it, which forms the
gist of speculation, is not so deliberately or
fagrantly dishonest as the endeavor to re-
cover the lost funds by capital obtained
through forgery. Most men who speculate
have enough honesty to draw the line at
forgery or stealing. Yet it is the fact that
nine-tenths of these crimes against property
are produced by speculation; and the preva-
lent opinion in speculative circles, that it is
not so important for a man to get money
honestly, as it is for him to get it anyway,
has produced lowering of business morals
that explains the frequency of such Of
fenses.
When it is made a canon of social ethics
that wealth obtained without giving an
honest return for every dollar of it. is dis
grace and blot, the era of defalcations and
forgeries will be ended.

AN INTELLIGENT VIEW.

The article which is copied elsewhere
from the National Labor Tribune shows the
light in which the coke strike appears to
constant and intelligent organ of labor. 1t
points out very clearly that the coke work.
ers cannot afford to deny their obligation to
respect a cardinal feature of Ia Dor organ
ization, namely, scale signed by the repre-
sentatives of the men for fixed period.
While the strike, as between the men and
scale. is an open issue, the Labor Tribune
points out very clearly that the duty of the
employees of the Frick works is 10 return to
work and carry out their agreement.
This is all the palmer because, under that
agreement, if an advance is secured from
other firms, the employees of the Frick COM
pany are entitled to an equal advance. The
strike then, so far as that company is con-
cerned, takes the attitude not only of
needless movement, but one that is actually
injurious to labor. Labor organization
cannot afford to violate its agreement and
impose penalties upon employers who have
led In conceding advanced wages to its
men. That not only takes away the in
ducement to other firms to follow its ex-
ample. 1t actually offers premium to the
course of refusing any advance and starving
the men into the acceptance OF low wages.
So far as this aspect of the present strike
is concerned, it takes the rank of that
ignorant agitation which holds up a wild
and senseless strike without regard to in
felli gent ard honorahle nolicv as n nanaoea
to all labor troubles. 1t is to be hoped that
saner cOunseIs will soon prevail among the
coke workers.
