1T is gratifying to know, as the New
MExIcAN's special correspondent informs
this journal, that the dispatch that APP
peared recently in the Denver News
dated Springer, N. NJ, and expressing
the dissatisfaction of the citizens of that
burg with President Mckinley, is found
to be untrue. This simplities the situa-
ton very much and is good for the ad-
ministration and it's plans. and now, let
us feel good and be joyful.

supply and recruit for fresh attack. II
Hawaii in naval conflict shall have no
useful function in this, then it would
seem that, through the wars Of all time,
the eager strife for the possession Of
fortresses, Of guarded ports. Of frontier
outposts, has been false strategy, an
error militarily.
As to the dread Of the economist or
Of the altrurian that annexation will
require largely augmented naval
strength 1t may be said that il an ade-
quate force of the United States be sta
toned at Hawaii and its coast commu-
nications be properly guarded, an enemy
from over sea would violate some Of
the cardinal principles of naval strategy
and invite sure disaster in attacking
our western shores without first block
aiding or defeating the Hawaiian squad
ron. The force at Pearl harbor should
then form simply but the first line Of
defense. Then the seagoing ships eft
to lie in a line," with their torpedo
auxiliaries, should be gathered to meet
the first assault, leaving the coast guard
to the reserve Of torpedo craft and mon
itors stationed at fortified ports. The
strength Of the squadron at this mid
Pacific outpost should be doubtless suffi-
Gent to meet the enemy, but the force
on the coast could be reduced.
Some misconception as to Hawaii's

lack Of appreciation Of what steam has
done in the reduction.o of ocean distances,
measuring the latter in the time spent
in traversing them. A clearer view may
be obtained perhaps by referring this
time to land travel. Admiral Colomb
speaks Of 1.-THE sea considered as terri.
tory over which military forces march,"
Let rs extend this expression somewhat
and assume the ocean to be not a neu.
trail plain, but a "No Mans Land" on
which armies may maneuver. Napoleon
gave his system Of conducting a war as
ito march IS miles a day, to fight and
then to camp in quiet" At Is knots
speed feet could steam from Pearl
harbor to San Francisco in less than six
days. The emperor in that time would
have marched his army 100 miles. If,
then, we assume the sea to be a great
land plain, we must locate Pearl harbor
IN that plain at about $50 miles from
San Francisco, and to complete the par.
allel must make it practically impreg-
Aable and capable Of sheltering 100, 900
9 From this point Of view Hawaii's
remoteness would seem to be apparent
rather than real. The men Of this
generation have added not a few stars

Of industry or q toilers in its ranks

our wide land that after the wants Of

CLASH OF AUTHORITY.

The first clash between the civil and
military authorities since the establish
ment of Camp Alger occurred last
night in Washington when Provost
Sergeant Albert P. Lillard and Corpo.
raj Charles Edwards, of the Second
Tennessee Volunteers, attempted to
arrest in that city colCred man &C.
cused of selling liquor in Camp Alger.
The whisky seller was tried by the
authorities of Fairfax county Wednes-
day, on the same charge, and his per-
sonal bonds were taken. Thursday he
was back at Camp Alger again con-
Quoting his unlicensed business more
quietly than before. Col. Anderson,
OF the Second Tennessee Volunteers,
soon found that his men were getting
liquor, and after careful investigation
found the source of the supply and Or
dered that the dispenser be placed un-
der arrest. When the guard went TO
search for the man he was not to be
found, SO they were equipped with
provost authority and sent to Wash
ington to make a thorough search OF
the alleys and streets which their man
was believed to frequent. With the
assistance of a citizen, the soldiers
lolcated him in Prather's alley, be-
tween Fourth and Fifth and l and K
streets northwest and went in to arrest him.
They told him he was under arrest. He re-
quested permission TO go into the next room
for his coat and continued through the back
| door Corporal Edwards was In the front
| room waiting for the man and the sergeant
had taken up position near the entrance of
the alley where he could intercept the pris
onNr if ne attempted to get out that way.
When the man failed to appear Edwards went
into the back room just in time to see the
man go over the back fence. Ee was imme-
diately pursued by both of the soldiers The
| corporal called to the sergeant to tire over the
| head of the fugitive, hoping to intimidate
| him, but Lillard seemed to have some trou
| bic in drawing his revolver, so his comrade
drew his and fired into the air four times.
| Policeman Stang heard the shots and placed
both soldiers under arrest Tho citizen who
accompanied the soldiers objected to their ct
rest in such boisterous manner, that he,
too, was taken into custody. They were
marched to the Sixth Precinct Station, where
charge of disorderly conduct was placed
against all OF them and an additional charge
of carrying concealed weapons was entered
| against the soldlers

As this country has defeated Spain,
