a bill was introduced in congress sew

ments Of artillery to man the coast de-
fenses, and promptly passed the SEN
ate. General 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 regiments Of artillery viii be
needed as minimum Yet the thought
OF providing two new regiments seems

travagant 70 be entertained. few per-

which would cost the United States hun

how short or how successful It wosld be,
grudge the expenditure OF the half a
million a year, or thereabouts. which the
two extra regiments of artillery would
entail A wise economy would provide
not merely the two regiments which the
bill asks. but the seven regiments which
are needed. and provide them immedI-

There does not seem to have been a
moment during the pending controversy
between Spain and the United States
when many II not most OF the Spanish
people have not thought they could whip
the Americans without serious difficulty
There have been many expressions from
newspapers and individuals going to show
that unless the whole business is bluff
the subjects Of the boy king are com
plaeently confident that they can make
short work OF this nation OF shop-keepers.
We on this side Of the Atlantic have seen
things differently. There has been a dis
position to regard the braggadocio OF
Spain as the result Of the peculiar tenn
permanent Of the spaniards But what
ever the cause. whether It be for the pur-
pose Of whistling to keep up courage or
an outcropping Of genuine spirit Of con-
hdence In their own prowess, 1t is never
theless observable that there has been no
dIminution OF this bumptlousness in the
bearing of the Spanish toward the Amer
leans. Recent news reports from cuba
indicate that many Of the Spanish Off
sers in the country towns OF the island
are eager to fight the United States, firm
~ believing that they could win both on
land and on sea. One OF their favorlte
arguments is illustrative Of peculiarly
inverse mental process. They urge that
# Spain could send 10000 men to small
kland like Cuba she could send vastly
greater army to the United States. Such
reasoning as this is worthy of perpetual
ton, even while events are tending to-
ward the development of grave conditions.
The suggestion does not seem to have oc-
eurrca e the spaniards that II 100000

PLENTY OF GOLD


Among the great surprises a western
business man usually experiences on his
arst visit cas-, is the lack Of gold In ctr
cula,ion. He meets With srea, variety
Of new and cxqulstely engraved bank Ni''s
and treasury notes Of denominations
which seem curious to him, because pre-
yiously unknown. but it is the rares'
thing for him to see any sold. even on the
counters Of hanks and business houses
So marked. indeed, has been this peculiar
absence OF gold nom eastern circulation
tina, there are many active business men
Of the generations which have come on
since the war in southern and Atlantic
coast states who never possessed In all
their lives single twenty-dollar gold
piece, 1t is strong evidence, therefore OF
improved financial conditions and Of con-
ddence In the ability and determination
Of the administration to preserve the eS-
ls,ing standard Of monetary value to aud
gold forsaking It's accustomed hidlng
places and rcsuming its natural position
as part Of the eountry's ordinary and
general medium OF exchange So remark
able is considered this phenomenon OF
COLDS Temperance in eastern circulation
that the newspapers are devoting columns
Of editorial space to its discussion and eS-
PLANTATION. In recent issue the Philadel-
phia Times said gold has ceased to be
" desirable as treasury reserve and the
blanks don't care to hoard I; further,
"The result is that one at least OF the
leading New York banks Is Csiel tender
"ing gold in the payment OF checks with
" the prospect that good many other
banks in New York and elsewhere will
adopt the same practice"
OF course war scare may send gold
into hiding again. but under normal con-
ditiOns those who want gold will be able
to get it in abundance. as the Increase OF
production and the heavy balance Of trade
IN our favor are conditions certain Il
continued to make gold plentiful every
where in the country. If the people make
no mistake at the coming congressional
elections the question asked so often with
such telling effect by eastern Bryaneslde
orators during the last presidential cam
paIgn, how long It was since any Of their
hearers had seen a gold piece, will have
lost its pertinence. Those who want gold
viii have no serious difficulty in getting
their wages or checks cashed in gold.
with peaceful conditions this increase
in gold circulation can scarcely fail to
lessen the clamor among the ignorant FOR
the restoration Of the 1s to silver coin
age. The widest free silver crank will
prefer gold TO silver If he can get 1t. and
with an annual production OF more than
ssOo0oOO OF native gold and balance
Of foreign trade in our favor Of more than

ity OF gold in future except for signs OF
the temperance OF the free silver craze.

RUBBER wARsHIps.
some Points In which They Have
Great Advantages over Ves-
sells Of Iron.

An Ohio man has come TO the front
with singular request. He wants
Uncle Sam to build his warships of
rubber. The Ohio man thinks it would
be a good thing, and there are reasons
for believing that his sanguine views
have some substantial backing. Sup
pose the new battleship Caoutchouc,
for instance, stumbles on the enemy
In midocean--or in midsummer. The
dastardly foe at once opens fire on her
at short range. The first shot misses
her. The second strikes her squarely
anidships and, bounding back, carries
away the dastardly enemys high
smokestack. his cooks galley and all
the captains official bric-a-brac. IF
there Is n third shot il may not strike
the Caoutchouc so squarely. If it
takes a glancing blow it is likely to
fly into the air to such a tremendous
height that when it returns its mo-
mentum will be sufficient to carry il
down the enemy's open hatchway and
straight through his copper sheathed
bilge cellar. If he survives these set
backs-or bound backs-he may fool
ishly attempt to ram our rubber pride
of the seas. What viii be the con-
sequence? The more forcible the blow
the more shocking the rebound. A
l6-knot collision of this character
would undoubtedly fling the enemy
back with such force that Il would
be quite characteristic of him TO
land--if there can be any landing in
mid-ocean-wrong side up, position
which may be classed among the most
embarrassing of marine situations
And ali this without a shot being fired
by the defenders of our flag.
Then take the case of the elastic
plated ram Rubberneck. An ingen-
sous continuance could enable her to
suddenly stretch out her ramming de-
partment and strike the enemy q solar
plexus when he least expected it. And
the very impact of her blow would at
once cause her to rebound to a point
OF perfect safety.
Then think Of the extra number Of
troops the rubber warship could carry
b. little iudicious stretching. IF she
struck rock she would simply bound
oway. If she grounded herself all that
would be necessary would be to loosen
a few Of the intevnal joints and girders
hat hold her elastic sides apart, when
she would at once partially collapse
herself free.
Oh. that Ohio man isn't such n wild
eyed dreamer as certain enyious east
ern editors profess to believe him. A
rubber warship is something more
tangible than a mere stretch Of mag
ination.-Clevelond Plain Dealer
