OUR Ma VAL MILITIA.

Next week the organization OF naval
reserves attached to the Rhode Island
brigade OF militia is to be completed by
the election OF commanding and an
executive office with three companies and
something over one hundred and fifty
men. BY the time Admiral BsUcE's big
fleet arrives in Newport harbor it is ex-
pected that the home sailors viii be in
trim condition TO participate with credit
to tho organization ia the practice ar
ranged for them by the navy department.
The program for the cruise OF the na-
val reserves is now completed and 1t
promises to be the most extended and
thorough that has yet been available to
this newer branch OF the militia. To
each State having a naval militia organi-
zation will be assigned one OF Admiral
BRUcE's cruisers and it is now thought
that ieet OF these cruisers with the re-
serves from the states north OF the Ches-
apeake will be oragnized for a weeks sea
cruising to begin July 13 According to
the plan the New York men aud the Con-
nectieut and New Jersey reserves and the
division from Rochester will probably be
taken on two ships OF the fe eet. while the
Rhode Island and Massa chusetts men will
require two others. Two or three days
will be devoted to work in and around
Long Island Sound, where the reserves
will be exercised in boat drills, target
practice and landing bodies of men armed
and equipped for distant service.
1t is expected that the Providence COM
pany of reserves will by this time be in
shape to SO IRE their full share OF the
high prestige enjoyed at the navy depart
ment by the commands at Bristol and
Newport.

The American Bible Society has recev
ed the annual report o: the Bible socie-
ties committee for Japan, from which it
appears that Bible distribution in the
army and navy has been carried forward
with sustained interest during the year.
The chief Of the staff OF the Imperial
Guards, who stands next in command TO
His Majesty, the Emperor OF Japan, in
an interview speaks of the importance
of spiritual education among officers and
men, and expresses his thanks for the
books distributed emong them. Growing
ont OF this favorable stand it was learned
that His Majesty, the Emperor, would ac-
cept copy OF the Scriptures, and the
preparation was undertaken by COM
mittee of representative japanese Christ
ians. The first print on especially pre-
pared paper Of large Bible will soon be
ready and His Majesty will be asked to
receive the sacred volume as an express
sion OF the loyalty and love of his devot-
cd Christian subjects.
The report says that the young men
reached in military service are those cal.
led for a short time from farm and chop,
from bench and books. They are ia
pans future, the bone and sinew of the
country. When II is remembered how
deep-rooted and widespread still are the
preiudices against the Christian faith and
the Bible, the strategic value OF this
Bible distribution cannot easily be csti-
mated. A reminiscence OF the Japan
Chinese war is given which tells OF find.

ENGLAND AND PROTECTION.
It is not at all likely that in this gencr-
alton the United States will again exper-
iment with free trade, or anything APP
preaching N or indulge with adnnnistra-
tive power any political party of such a
policy whether disguised or not under
some such name ss tariff reform. Its ad-
vocate, OF the brotherhood of man"
kind, as well as those who support free
trade as an opener of the markets of the
world" will alike receive scant consider
aiion. The Presidential election OF No
vember next will re-establish the policy
OF protection as policy of this country
to remain fixed at least until new gen
Grafton, ignorant OF history, shall develop
into voters to be fooled.
Meantime, however, the moving OF the
world is not at all unlikely to remove
from the gIittering examples Of the ad-
vantages of a free trade policy, that OF
Great Britain. While England has made
free trade a governmental policy outside
OF politics for 80 years. she was protec
ton country for ave hundred years before
that. Her industrial supremacy was
secured under n protection policy that,
from the most backward in all Europe,
enabled her To advance to -theIeading
position in industries and commerce. and
II was only abandoned when her adven-
tage was secured and she sought to In
crease her manufacturing prosperity by
getting cheaper goods and raw materials
and so being able to employ labor at
lower price. During her fifty years Of
free trade, however, the British colonies
have drifted toward protectionism and
the development of other continental
countries in an industrial way has finally
threatened England with loss OF Conti-
mental supremacy unless something OF
the practice OF free trade Is dropped and
something of the policy OF protection is
substituted.
The problem is now receiving the con-
sideration OF English statesmen and a
scneme which finds favor will IL adopted.
place the British Empire on about the
same protective footing as that which was
maintained by the United States up to
the time OF the CLEVELAND sdministra-
tion. The plan that meets favor in En-
gland, just now, Is to establish an inn
perial customs union, that shall secure
fres trade between England and her
colonies, Just as there is free trade be-
tween the States of the Union, and that
shall then protect the Industries OF the
united Empire against other and "for-
sign" competition. Great Britain and
her colonies will thus be an industrial
federation just as are the States of the
United States, with a united protective
policy similar to that adopted for this
country, with free trade within tho fed
Grafton and protection against outsiders.
And II IL believed that Apostle Cob
DEN himself could make no objection to
such plan although the scheme is cal
cuated to give shock to the New En-
gland Free Trade (nee tariff reform)
League.

SHORT LEASE OF LIFE.

KANSAS cry, NO., May 15.-Pollard
and Harris, the negroes who were to
have been hanged here today, the State
Supreme Court, having affirmed the
death sentence imposed and Governor
Stone having refused TO grant them a
further respite have been given another
lease of life.
The respite comes from ON unexpected
source and in manner unprecedented in
this State. Judge Dobson of the state
Circuit Court last night issued writ of
habeas corpus ordering Marshal Keshlear,
who had arranged for the execution, to
appear with the condemned men in his
court on Saturday morning for a hearing
