81 POWER ~ UsrRArgD.

Spain's navy is virtually gone.
Two Spanish armored ships remain
which are at sea, but are understood
not to be in the best condition.
The torpedo boats distributed among
Spanish ports are not worth much
for resistance to a strong feet. They
are too frail to go into a general en-
gagement except by quick dash,
and all attempts of the kind IN the
present war have met with disaster.
A phase of the conflict is reached
in which we can send 3 strong squad
ron to the coast of Spain. Its bust
ness there will be to fight the best
feet the enemy can organize; to
seize Spanish harbor for further
operations; to capture ships, compel
commercial lines to suspend and to
strike at all exposed points on the
seaboard. Unless Spain can defeat
or drive off our squadron. the king
dom will be in condition Of semi
blockade. Nearly all the foreign
trade of Spain is conducted on the
sea. Tie presence of hostile feet
along its long ocean boundaries will
cause heavy loss, to say nothing of
the general feeling of impotence and
humiliation.
To avoid these grave results Spain
may decide to sue for peace before
Commodore Watson's fleet can cross
the ocean. The colonies would be
surrendered without extensive army
operations. Sea power would then
have decided the whole issue. 1t is
necessary to bear in mind that the
army campaign at Santiago was de-
signed to solve q naval problem.
The first necessity of the situation
was to dispose of Cervera's fleet.
The approach of our land batteries
forced the Spanish admiral from his
place of refuge and sent him to his
doom.
That great naval exploit, which
will always fill remarkable page IN
the worlds history, in turn lightened
the task of the army. Spain has no
ships left to defend or supply her
colonies. To re!inquish them is her
only course, Havana, therefore, as
a sequel of the naval battle at Santi-
ago, may fall without shot, passing
out of Spanish hands along with the
whole of Cuba, and Porto Rico as
well. The key to this result is the
complete mastery of the ocean
against Spain. The fears of Cadiz,
Barcelona, Cartagena and the Cana
ries may settle the war. Sea power
has not been overestimated.
Elements of discomfort will exist
in Cuba after the Spanish flag comes
down and the Spanish troops are
Withdrawn, but the protectorate of
the United States will manage affairs
with firm hand. Every Cuban
seaport will be controlled by our
navy and by sufficient garrisons.
The Spanish volunteers who live on
the island and the convicts organized
as Spanish guerrillas are not compar-
atively numerous and will be under a
crossfre calculated TO bring them
into quick subsection.
Nearly all the native Cubans want
peace ard chance to build up the
industries of the island. When the
Spaniards go, the fears of the timid
will vanish and business men turn to
the future with confidence.
To say that the war was practic-
ally settled when the Spanish feet
was crushed may be assuming too
much, but the present outlook war
rants the opinion.
One of the signs of prosperity is

Gordon's Garden at Khartounl.

Gordon has become a legend with
his countrymen, and they all but defy
him dead who would never have
heard of him had he lived. But in
this garden you somehow came to
know Gordon the man, not the myth,
and to feel near to him. Here was an
Engllshman doing his duty, alone.
and at the instant peril Of his life; yet
still he loved his garden.
The garden was yet more pathetic
ruin than the palace. The palace ac-
cepted it's doom mutely; the garden
strove against it. Untrimmed, un-
watered, the oranges and cltrons still
struggled to bear their little hard
green knobs. as if they had been full
ripe fruit. The pomegranates put out
their vermillion star-howers, but the
fruit was small and woody and juice
less. Th, figs bore better, but they.
100, were small and without vigor
Rankly overgrown with dhurra,. vine
still trained over a low roof It's
dwarfed leaves and limp tendrils, but
yielded not sign of grapes.
It was all green, and so far vivid
and refreshing after Omdurman. But
it was the green Of nature, not Of cul.
tivation; leaves grew large and fruit
grew small, and dwindled away. Re
luctantly, despairingly, Gordon's gar
zen was dropping back to wilderness
And in the middle of the defeated
fruit trees grew rankly the hateful
Soudan apple, tha poisonous herald oi
