Is Judge Greshem going into Mr..
Cleyeland's Cabinet because he is a
great statesman Scarcely. There
are two reasons why that hypothesis
must fall to the ground, The first is
that he never demonstrated that he is
man possessed of great abilities, re
joicing in an endowment of statesman
ike qualities. On the bench he made
a good judge, not altogether free from
erratic tendencies, but in the main
tolerably sound. And, Of course, in a
judicial capacity he could not be ex-
pected to show craftsmanship.

An Overestimsted Fortress,

From Henry NJ. Fields ''Gibraltar"
A hundred years ago Burke spoke Of Gibral-
tar with exultation as "a post of power, a post
OF superiority, of connection. of commerce
one which makes us invaluable to our friends
and formidable to our enemies" and the feel
ing has survived to this day. Not an English
man passes through the straits whose heart does
not swell within him to see the flag Of his coun-
try floating from the top OF the rock, from
which as he believes. the whole world cannot tear
1t down. Every true Briton would look upon
the lowering Of that flag as the abdication of
imperial power
Yet is not this An overestimate Of the value
OF the Gibraltar to England? Is it worth all il
costs TO England? WouiG it weigh much in the
balance in great contest of nations for the
mastery OF the world? The object of this rock
fortress Is to command the passage down the
Mediterranean. The arms Of Gibraltar are a
castle and key, to signify that it holds the
key OF the straits, and that no ship fying any
other flag than that Of England can enter or
depart except by her permission. That power,
however, Is already gone. England NAV bold
the key OF the straits, but the door is too wide
to be locked. The lO0-ton guns Of Gibraltar,
even II aimed directly seward. could not de-
stroy or stop passing feet. l know this is not
tine limit of construction in modern ordnance
duns have been wrought weighing a hundred
and twenty tons, which throw ball weigh
ing a ton over ten miles, Such gun mounted
at Tarifa might indeed hurl its tre-
mendous bolt across the Mediterranean into
Africa. Tarifa, however. is in Spain, while OPP
posite Gibraltar II is fourteen miles to Ceuta, q
point not to be reached by any ordnance in ex-
istehce, even If the last product Of modern
warfare were mounted on the height of o. Hara's
Tower. SO that feet of ironclads. hugging the
African coast would be quite safe from the En-
Rlish fire, which could not prevent the entrance
Of French or German or italian feet into the
Mediterranean il it were strong enough to en-
counter the English feet.
The reliance must, therefore, be on the feet
and not on the fortress. OF course the latter
would be . refuge in case Of disaster, where the
English ships could find protection under the
guns OF the fort But the fortress alone would
not bar the passage into the Mediterranesn
