formation, consists of about twenty-five
armored ships, ten of which are of the most
modern construction, with displacement each

fourteen and sixteen knots. They are armed
with Armstrong breech loading rifles with a
calibre of from thirteen to seventeen inches
In addition to these she has an unarmored fleet
OF ten or twelve cruisers and as many gunboats

Duilio, one of her line of battle ships, was fin
ished sixteen years ago. she was the most for
midable war vessel then af1oat. Two years
later the Dondolo, twin was launched. Both
attracted the attention of naval officers all over
the world, and elaborate reports were made
upon them by our own naval authorities. Both
the Duilio and the Dondolo have since

PALMER FOR PRESIDENT.

If it were not for Gen. PAiMER'S
age, he would be the most prominent
candidate before the people to-day for

but the Chicago Herald says that his

overestimate the claims of young men
in this country. In Connecticut they
retire their judges of courts, whether
they will or no. But Lord Chief Justice
CoCKBURN was over eighty when he de-
livered his charge in the TICHBoRNE
case, which stands in the history of
Jurisprudence among the wonders of
learning, concentration, consecutive
ness, eXhaustiyeneSs and yigor. We
think that our presidents ought to be in
the neighborhood Of fifty, but GLAD
STONE is a good deal older than Gen.
PALMER, and who dareS say that he is
not equal to his task, which is the
hardest i'll the world?

statesman. He fought for the Mon

he fights for it with tongue and pen.
He is a Western man, and there the
Democracy ought to look for its stand

state, and he can carry it, He is a Wig
orous warrior. He is in sympathy with
the masses. He is a foe of monopoly
He is earnest and tireless in the cru

Above everything. he appeals to the
popular heart as the victor III an honest
fight against heavy odds and host

defeat.
The GLOBE would like to see Gen.

LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE.

The fight of the Republican million
aires goes on in California as to who

COSTS TOO MUCH


In the peculiar enthusiasm ciicited at
Il party banquet a halo can easily be
seen ABOUT the record OF the party. The
expenditure of 4 few hundred millions
mere or less is Of 10 concern. The
recent collection at Minneapolis saw
nothing wrong in the prodgality of its
party in the late congress, and pei haps

York the late speaker dwelt upon the
great expenditures as something to be
proud of. 1t is biz and growing
country, and evidence OF its greatness is
found in the vastnesS of its eXpendi-
lures. To Speaker REED it seemed
quite right that 4 hundred million dol
lars year should be added to the eX-
PcnditureS. \ sheer and ridicuIe were

after the expenditures. The bud

it was too large. In his judgment the
expenditures should not go much above
Si0O,0O0,0H aside from the interest on
the national debt. But these figures
would look contemplate now to the
REEDS and those who regard cheap
things as mean and Democratic. In the

Until next December Democratic
papers will be full of TRADES about Re-

tons. Whether these censures are in
any respect deserved or not they will
produce an Impression on the public
mind. The next congress will be
closely watched to see whether il is
more economical. If it cuts down eX-
penditures for the needful work of the
government it will be justly censured.
If cuts off pensions for Union veterans
it will be condemned. But it it appro-

STILL OPPOSING III.

The Republican mai0rities in the
legislatures of Pennsylvania and Maine
have again. the past few DAYS. voted
down the reform ballot act. 1t was a
little difficult to effect it in the face of
the strong support of the Democratic
minority and the pledges in the Repu.)-
lican platform: but the strength OF the
party machine was brought to bear.
and the alien intrusion upon estab-
lished methods was knocked Oui. \
timid Republican paper fears that this
defiance of public sentiment will drive
Pennsylvania quite over to the Demo
cratic sid9. 1t is unfamiliar with the
conditions and methods depended upon
by the QUAYS, DUDLEYS and pluto
cratic powers, OF II would recognize the
fact that a secret ballot would destroy
the reliability of their appliances.
They would naturally choose the re
form and unobSeryed ballot. if it
were safe for them, as it would obyia ate
great labor and save vast amounts of
money that are reluctantly contributed
now by beneticIaries of the monopo-
listic system. They note that in HI
diana, Rhode Island, Massachusetts,,
New York and other states that have
the Australian system in use, the dis
aSters to the party have been almost
phenomenal. Indiana and New York
have become hopeless. Rhode Island
has become solidly Democratic. and
even Maine and Pennsylvania can only
be relied upon by the use of the per
suasives taken into the pockets of
voters. In Ohio, also, the Republican
vote. with one Democrat, was able to
defeat the reform. But the measure
has made its way to success in about
twenty states, and the party that gets
in its path will have to meet a popular
| antagonism not to be placated by par
