THE Friends society in Ohio have
finally indorsed the opinion Of this paper,
expressed some Two years ago about
money being appropriated for the De-
pariment of the Navy to be used in con-
slr.cting war vessels and making coast
defences. A lengthy petition from that
society was sent TO Congress last week
protesting against any more funds being
appropriated for that purpose. This is,
as we view the matter, the correct theory
10 advance: when disputes arise between
nations, forty to ninety days are allowed
to consider matters before war need 10 be
declared, which is ample time Tor us TO
prepare for foreign invasion. The Navy
Department should be abandoned except in
times of war actually existing. The Sec
retary OF War can look after all matters
that are necessary pretainiDg TO navy
outfit In times Of peace. A protest
should be entered against one more dol
lar being expended TO aid the Navy
Department.and speedy termination Of
