at the least-a tidy sum for the taxpay-
ers to meet, but which the advocates
OF the bill declare would be more than
counterbalanced by the great opportun-
tiles onered the settler. Another TEA
ture Of the proposed law is that it
would release settlers who have con-
tracted to purchase land in these res
ervations at the stipulated price from
further payment of the debt. AS a
whole 1t would cost the government
fully $S5, 100000. In view of the fire.
quent statements that there is no more
land for free settlement that it is worth
while to own, it is of interest to call
to mind the fact (which does not seem
to be generally known that there are
today 7O5,S54 acres of land available I'M
der the act Of Aug. %, 1894, which con-
slsts of the acres that form the military
reservations at points where the gov
ernment no longer considers it neces-
sary to maintain army posts. The lat
ter land is scattered through Arizona,
California, New Mexico, Nebraska,
Utah and Wyoming. Originally, the
bill which has been discussed here pro-
vided that all this land should be
thrown open to free entry, but the
clause making this possible was strick-
en- out of the measure before it went
to the senate. 1t is not likely that this
military reservation will ever be open
to settlement otherwise than by pur-
chase. Much Of 1t has been cultivated
and as a rule Uncle Sans reservation
locations are the best to be found in
the part Of the country where they ex-
| list.
Whether or not the free home bill
will become law is as yet a matter
of conjecture, but 1t certainly furnishes
an opportunity for those who wish tc
learn just where Uncle Sans posses
sions that invite the settler really lie

One argument that has been made
in favor of building comparatively
large number of small warships rather
than a smaller number of large vessels,
with large crews, is that the smaller
ones afford the greatest number OF in
dependent commanders and oppor-
tunities of training for command. Be
tween 1872 and 1888 76 sea-going fight
ing ships were launched for the British
navy, varying in displacement between
43O and 1900 tons, and the number of
men and officers in these ships ranged
from SO, in the smallest, to 22O in the
largest. These ships were to be found
all over the world. Admirals, captains
and leading officers of to-day were all
trained in them. and splendidly
trained These ships, however. have
been displaced in recent years by
larger vessels, with larger crews, max
ing for each command larger claims on
naval estimates and on the reserve OF
men. Some of the foremost authori-
ties now lean to the opinion that too
much trust is placed in big ships and
too little in the skill, enterprise and
valor which may be had in the direc-
ton and management of ship of mod
crate size. To multiply such smaller
ships is to multiply the chances of get
ting good men in command. Piling up
armor and guns condemns many such
men to subordination to their inferi-
ors.-Cassier's Magazine.
