d.lphia can easily be restrained, OF
course. If they gave their votes and
influence to the task of pushing the
work on the coast d%efenses and Of
providing men to nan Thorn they
would do some service to their country
and save themselves from ridicule.
The discovery made by several MEM
bers Of Congress that l07 OF the new
high-power rifle cannon in New York
horber are lying unmountsd, and
while in this condition useless, should
show the bellicose Congressman that
there is other work for them to do
before they declare a Let them
take precautions to put the country in
a state OF defense such as would make
the war short and triumphant.
a bill was introduced in Congress
several weeks ago to create two new
regiments Of artillery to man the
coast defenses, and at last has passed
tho senate. Gen. Miles, who ought
to know something of the cOuntry's
needs in this respect, says that to
garrison the forts now built or which
are near completion seven new regi-
ments of artillery will be needed as a
minimum. Yet the thought OF provid'
ing even two regiments seems IL

extravagant to be entertained. A few

United States would be victorious,
but in order to make the victory swift,
decisive and cheap in the expenditure
of life and money, the work on the
coast defenses and on the naval vessels
in course Of construction should be
vigorously pushed, and ar ample
force OF men to mon them should be
promptly provided. Spain can not
be whipped by pointing to the pre-
~ponderance of our 20, 1000, 900 of popu-
lation over her IS, 600, 900, and to our
far greater preponderance in wealth.
1t is the number of men and the ex-
penditure Of money at the points of
attack and defense which count. Only
a very small part of the many millions
of men in the United States fit for
military or naval service would be
needed in a war with Spain, but the
nucleus of these should be provided
