of view, TO be a gratifying circum-
stance. If this country were ( power
that designed to conduct its naval
wars in way to seal up an enemy's
coast, the conclusion would be different,
but the United States has no such pol
icy. Its principal objects in mari
time war must be to defend itself from

destroyers. Upon the futility of block

The success of the Dolphin in running
the blockade at Charleston by no
means proves that blockades are in
effectual; all that it can really be said
to prove is that the blockade at
Charleston was Intellectual. What this
country's naval policy in case of war
would be, no one can say: it would all
have to depend upon circumstances

euvres by squadrons in time of peace
do not vary greatly from maneuyres
by army corps in time of peace; they
have their uses, but determine nothing

The execution of Millionaire Dues
trow for the murder of his wife and
child is a signal triumph for the law
When it fastened its grip upon him il
never once allowed him to stake 1t
off. His wealth enabled him to em-
ploy in his own defense the best legal
talent in the country, which he did.
His case was carried through all the
courts but he was beaten at every
turn. Finally, that last refuge of the
murderer-the insanity plea-was
made. Governor Stephens stayed the
execution that a commission of eX
perts might inquire into his sanity.
This commission reported adversely
and the law was allowed to take its
course. 1t has; and the millionaire
murderer has paid the penalty of his
crime the same as the poorest and
lowest down brute would have had to
under similar circumstances.
