oEoisph w. MELVILLE.
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.
Of the altrurian that annexation will
require largely augmented naval
strength it may be said that if 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 fit
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.
cient to meet the enemy, but the force
on the coast could be reduced.
Some misconception as to Hawaiis
value in war seems to arise through a
lack of appreciation of what steam has
done in the reduction 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 us extend this expression somewhat
and assume the ocean to be not neu-
trail plain, but "No Mans Land" on
which armies may maneuver. Napoleon
gave his system of conducting war as
Ito march 30 miles day. to fight and
then to camp in quiet. At 10 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 $50 miles If,
then, we assume the sea to be great
land plain, we must locate Pearl harbor
on that plain at about $50 miles from
San Francisco, and to complete the par
allel must make it practically impreg-
nable and capable Of sheltering 1000
men. From this point of view Hawaii's
remoteness would seem to be- apparent
rather than real. The men of this
generation have added not few stars
to the blue field of our flag. AS captains
of industry or as toilers in its ranks
they have so developed the resources of
our wide land that after the wants of
the greatest home market in the world
are filled there remains of our products
q surplus which in ever increasing va
riety and quantity forces its way into
foreign marts. Shall not we. too, serve
the greater republic that is to come, and
In accepting the gift of the Hawaiian
group not only make secure our western
shore, but give the coming generations
firm grasp on the vast-but for us al
most untouched-trade of Pacific shores
and islandsf-Gsorgs w. Melville, En-
ginesr In Chief. U. 8. n, In New York

Washington, Feb 24-Allen offered
the Morgan Cuban belligerency resolu-
ton as an amendment to the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill. Hale
gave notice of point of order against
the amendment. Morgan, in opposing
the Allen amendment, said we had no
right to make declaration Of this sort
in this way. He would not vote for a
declaration Of war against Spain in dis
guise. He wanted the challenge made
and picked up in an honorable way.
Lodge opposed making this question a

bill. He did not believe in grave ques-
tons of foreign policy being added to
appropriation oils.

mother. week ago last Monday How
ard took his departure and not one word

probably need little spending money in
his travels and took $58 OF his fathers
with him.
The case was not reported to the OF
fcers until vest rday. when Mrs. Jen-
niDgs told the story to Truant Officer
Silyola. Howard was first missed on
Monday night. No fear a, TO his where

day, when he failed TO put in an appear

had been taken too.
Howard has been under the notice OF
the truant officer on several occasions
and hunted up for truancy, although
he wac not considered bad boy by the
officer and always promised TO attend
school regularly after he had been
caught,
Where he has gone or what be did with
the money, no one seems to have the

The officers think it very queer that the

Pittsburg, Pa. MIR. Updegraff was at one
time agent OF the old Cliff mine That was

afterwards succeeded to the position of
agent which he held at the time he mine
was closed down for the first time. He
removed from the copper district shortly
afterward and although the mine was
re-opened later he did not come back to
take the old place.
Mr. Updegraff has many old friends
and acquaintance among the men who
are now at the head of many of The big
mines in this vicinity, but who were just
coming to the district when he was here.
A large number OF the old settlers who
were in keweenaw at the time he was
agent OF the Cliff will remember him, bur
many OF the old timers have crossed the
divide.

trict since he left it over a quarter Of a
century ago and to say that b. was sur
