The ability of poor land defenses
to hold their own against the strong
est fleets, which has been revealed
by the Spanish war, is encouraging
to the United States. 1t means
that none of the big towns on our
seacoasts have anything to fear
from any sort of a maritime enemy.
Santiago's forts were old fashioned,
had poor armaments and poorer
gunners. They we're assalled by
the strongest fleet, ship for ship and
gun for gun, that any nation pos
sesses. Yet the forts were only
slightly injured, New York, Boston,
New Orleans, San Francisco and
nearly all the other towns of any
importance on any of our coasts
have stronger forts than Santiago
had, with more powerful guns and
far better gunners. A navy like
Italy's or Germany's would have no
chance to infict any damage to our
chief seaports. Even France, which
has the second largest navy in the
world, could do comparatively little
harm to any United States ports in
war. On paper, Italy has strong
er navy than the United States,
and Germany is, also on paper
about tie with this country, but
in effective naval fighting strength
the United States is undoubtedly
immeasurablY superior to either
of these two nations. s.-GIobe-Dem

Territorial expansion might be
contrary to the Monroe doctrine,
but the Monroe doctrine was pro-
mulgated many years ago and
things haye changed a great deal
since then. It seems to us that it
would be nothingjbut right for The
United States to acquire territory
that has been wrested from the
Spanish. Other nations do the
same thing, why not ours? If this
nation expects to become a great
power and hold its own with other
nations it will become necessary for
1t to acquire all the territory posi-

Controlling the Price of Wheat.

Events during the past few months
in the Chicago wheat pit has shown
how powerful one man can be,
Throughout the whole OF civilization
the increase in the price of bread
has been felt. This power of a sin
gle man, however, IS not so great as
that of one single medicine in re-
lieving and curing many diseases.
This is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
and its influence for good extends to
all lands. When the mouth tastes
badly IN the morning, when appe-
tite is lost, when dizzy spells come
on, when you are easily tired and
have no desire to work, take wine
glass full of the Bitters before meals
and you will feel like a different per
son. This one medicine controls the
health of everybody.
