Future Battleships,

81 sometimes think that If the United
States SO willed it she might become the
mightiest naval power the world has
ever SEEM" writes Admiral P. H. Co.
lomb of the royal navy in The North
American Review. That is what we
think of ourselves, Admiral Colomb.
The admiral believes further that our
situation and general policy" seem to
lead us at present toward the control OF
the naval forces of the South American
states, seeing that it is apparently i'm.
possible for those states to control their
own navies. Well, we would not think
of it, except in n particular case. That
would occur if the European powers
should themselves ever attempt to put
in a hand and secure control of any of
those turbulent, half civilized states.
For instance, just now off Rio Janeiro,
England, France and German naval
ships are taking a much warmer inter-
est in the fight between the Brazilian
congress and navy than the situation ap-
pears to justify. If they should under
take ''for the protection of foreign citi-
zens' in Rio to capture any part of that
fat but discordant republic for them
selves, then there would be use for the
United States navy very quick.
Meantime we shall be glad to take ad-
vantage of the wise hints the admiral
gives us on building future naval ships.
He calls the huge vessels of the type of
the ill fated Victoria GLORIOUS mon
strosities," evolved from the nautical
designing brain on land in times Of
peace. There will be a return to the old
broadside battleship of moderate di.
mansions without the tremendously
heavy guns. Lighter guns can do quick
er and deadlier execution than these
slow firing heavy ones. Steam and
electricity can now revolve a whole ship
as quickly as a gun can be revolved.
There is a demand for tie two classes of
naval vessels still, the line of battle ship
and the cruiser. He sees little call for
the cruiser and battleship combined, for
such vessel will be a failure in both re-
spects. Every vessel must be built to
fight those Of its own class, cruiser
against cruiser, battleship against bat
tleship. Moderate speed is better than
terrific speed at forced pressure. The
practice of sheathing the steel bottoms
of naval ships with copper will proba-
bly, come in. The admiral also seems to
expect that the era of liquid fuel will
shortly do away with the great coal
room now required. He thinks Ameri-
ca needs at present cruisers with great
coal endurance and considerable often
sive power. Finally the fight between
the Monitor and Merrimac was in his
judgment the decisive battle of our civil
war.

The republican press is trying very
hard to manufacture a little political
ammunition out OF the vote for repeal.
1t is a hard proposition. The people are
too we'll posted to gulp down their mis-
leading statements. The entire repub-
!ican party voted against the free coin
age bill in 1880. 1t was a republican
senate that caused the defeat of a
free coinage measure in 1873, and silver

says that during the present year God
mas been most beneiicent to the state

THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE.


Financial journals state that money l
again making its way out OF safety de
post vaults, stockings and other hiding
places. Eighty. eight millions Of dollars
nave flowed into the city Of New York
during the past ten weeks, speculation
IN stocks and products has taken on re-
newed stimulus, and all signs of health
full business activity are apparent. Prac'
ticslly all the clearing house certificates
in Boston and New York have peer re-
tired. The exchanges at the principal
clearing houses show a decrease::of twen-
ty-tive and one-half per cent for the
week. which is less than appeared.some
weeks ago. At most points banks are
somewhat relaxing their 2caution, and
the early promise of .sseasyimoney is.most
fiattering.
While the treasury gold reserve fund
is still below the limit, it is a source OF
satisfaction to note the large increase OF
the yellow metal held by the national
banks, as indicated by statements pub
lished. Large importations OF gold are
freely predicted.
In this connection it should be noted
that attention is more prominently di-
-ected to real estate as an investment
than TOR many years. The failure OF
stock investments, particularly OF the
industrial class, has made even the most
conservative of moneyedEmen turn to
the consideration of real estate. Such
property has been the basis of all values
from the beginning of individual owner
ship. 1t Is only.when Misrepresentation
vas rife, and people over-tempted to
hastily get rich, that realty has been
neglected. After all, men are like sheep.
They go with the crowd.-- Everybody
wanted stocks, and everybody bought
stocks galore. 1t was natural that with
d premium thus set upon, rascality Wall

sired. Mark the result: With the cramp

billions of dollars. Such a sum takes
ones breath away to hear mentioned.
The lesson will prove most salutary to
the investing public, for a time at least.
Such lessons generally last about a de-
cads, to be repeated in turn, and thus
runs the world away.
Several Of the leading newspapers of
the east, among which is the New York
World, are directing attention to realty
as the most inviting field for specula-
tion and investments. All signs point to
a revival of business through this chan
nel. Not only does it mean the growth
Of cities, but the cultivation Of vast
tracts Of the virgin soil Of the boundless
vest. More eyes are directed towards
today than ever before in the
of the state. The railroads all
expect heavy immigration next spring.
The boom Of the early future will be in
ZEAL estate, and in this the west and

Several Montana papers in the past
have been very severe in their denuncia-
ton of the grand jury system, but re-
cent developments in county affairs in
this state ought to be sufficient to cause
them to materially modify their views.
in Flathead and Meagher coun-
ties the public and numerous private in
dividuals were unfortunately robbed
and abused by some Of the officials, and
there was apparently to be no end to it
until a grand jury was summoned and
the guilty officers indicted. There
is apparently no effort to bring the de-
%linquent to the bar of justice except
through the investigations of a grand
jury. There never was a better oppor-
tunity to show the lack of necessity for
the grand jury system than in these
cases, but instead they furnish convinc-
ing proof of the value Of the system.-

Cassimir Laboratories Demcntia of
Violent Nature.

Cassiinir Laborderic. n mechanical en-
gineer. twenty-four years Old. of 1856
Prince street, at 40 this morning was
removed to Bellevue Hospital, afflicted
with acute demcntia. He was at inter-
vals very violent.
Laborderie lived with his wife on the
first floor of the above number. Three
months. ago they cmigrated here from
Paris. People in the neighborhood ap-
peared to know little OF the couple. but
their impression Is that the Young
Frenchman and his wife have been aC-
quainted with much better surroundings
than at present.
The day before Christmas Deputy Cor
oner T.. j. Donlin, of Sullivan and Hous-
ton streets. was called to prescribe for
the young Frenchman, who was suf-
fering from dementia, which appeared to
be the result of some great mental
strain. Medical treatment did not seem
to benefit him. At times the young man
became desperate and frightened his
pretty wife by throwing himself out Of
bed and raving like n demon. but. how
ever, towards Mrs. Labordcrie he was
ever tender and kind.
This morning at 1.20 DR.. Donlin was
hastily summoned to the house and found
his patient beyond control. The Prince
street police were notified. and the young
man was removed to the hospital in an
ambulance.
