WARRINGTON, Nov. Sin view of the
presidents decision that under existing
treaties naval vessels cannot be built on
the great lakes, the navy department will
now press upon congress the Importance
of allowing its estimate Of $500, 600 for the
accumulation Of supply of rapid fire
rifles for the auxiliary navy. One Of the
most forcible arguments that will be pre-
sented is the fact that Great Britain al
ready has number of small war vessels
which can be quickly taken into the great
lakes through the Canadian canals, and in
time OF war ravage our great lake cities
which arc now defenseless. With a proper
supply of guns on hand, however, 1t is
argued that large number OF American
lake steamers could be rapidly armed in
emergency, and could easily overpower the
British gunboats.

by Great Britain to the effect that the king

makes him a very strong presidential star.
Mckinley Is the embodiment Of the pro-
tective principle, and Bradley's election Is
a triumph for sound money. In Ohio both
parties were in substantial agreement ON
finances, and outside of the local questions
the Wilson Brice tariff bill was the chief
issue Of the campaign.
SIN Kentucky both parties In cohven-
ton endorsed sound money. On the stump
Bradley was even more outspoken for o
gold standard than his party platform,
while Hardin openly repudiated the utter
ances Of his party and proclaimed the
gospel of free and unlimited coinage Of
silver in every speech. Mckinley and
Bradley stand for protection and honest
money, the issue upon which next years
