OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

There has been much talk from Re
publican and other goldite sources OF
the growth of anti-silvcr and anti
Bryan sentiment in New York and
Massachusetts, and all the Northern
and Eastern States, among Democrats;
but on recent square tests in Massa
chusetts and New York the prof. Bryan
and silver strength and enthusiasm
seem to have been growing steadily
stronger since 1896. This was first em-
haticaliy shown in Massachusetts
where not. only has the platform of
1895 received n particularly strong re-
affirmation, with special reference to
silver. but where the denomination of
Bryan was rcsolutely demanded and
reinforced by delegation to the ma
tional convention fully pledged to
him.
In New York City. Croker, the Tam
many Chief on his return from Eng
land, eagerly seized the first opportu
nifty 10 announce his conversion to
Bryan. and to use his influence to
break down the Van Wyck game

lapsed suddenly and irretreivably the
moment that it became known that
Croker was adverse to 1t. Now the
Democratic State Committee of New
York has committed itself emphatical-
ly to Bryan, notwithstanding the active
opposition of Hill, who opposed such
a committal of the committee in adj
vance OF EN- actual nomination by the
National Committee; but The opposi-
ton was impotent before the populari-
~ of Bryan. and Hill was not only de-
feated, but deserted by his own friends,
who declare that Hill himself is really
for Bryan and only opposed the action
of the committee as premature and ir-
regular.

For these reasons. the United States

ALL BOW 70 UNCLE SAM.
American Navy Has Attracted
Worldwide Attention.
NAVAL ATTACHES ARE COMING

WASHINGTON, March 10. Lieutenant
DeFaramond OF tho French navy re-
Gently arrived here in company with
the French ambassador, M. Cambon,
to become naval attache Of the French
embassy. Lieutenant DeEaramond
has had wide experience as q naval oh.
server, following the Japanese and
Chinese vessels through the China.
Japan war, and now comes here to
study American naval methods.
Speaking OF tho American navy to-
day, Lieutenant DcFaramond saidi
"The American navy has attracted
worldwide attention within the last
year, and this is leading European
countries TO send naval attaches TO
Washington, This will be the first
time that tho French government has
had a naval attache with the embassy
A German naval officer Is coming to
the German embassy, and other coun-
tries doubtless will follow in the same
line.
"Since the Spanish. American war
this country affords splendid facilities
for naval study, II was the first real
test of modern lighting vessels and
naval science must draw its conclu.
sions largely from what tho
American navy accomplished dur
ing the war with Spain, |
think ii is universally conceded
in Europe that the American navy
made splendid record, not only in
general way, but In technical matters
of naval detail 1t demonstrated the
effectiveness Of the rapid fire gun Of
medium caliber, rather than the
larger guns, 1t also seemed to show
that the power Of navy is moro in its
weapons OF attack and offense, its
capability Of giving blows, rather
than in Its heavy armor and capability
OF resisting blows
1--WE in France were quite aware Of
the growing power of the American
navy even before the recent war. Our
chief naval constructor, M. Berth,
came to this country prior to war and
made tour of your dock yards, ar
senals, etc. On his return he made an
official report, showing the great inn
provements tho American naval con-
structors have brought about, partic-
ularly in the arrangement OF bulk
heads and in the distribution OF armor
80 40 to protect vital points We also
know your American armor and are
using the Harveyized American pro-
cess, which has been found entirely
satisfactory thus far"
Lieutenant DeFaramond says for
eign naval observers are not only in
terested in the results of the war, but
are also observing the large amount
of naval construction now in progress
in the United States and the naval
improvement it involves From Ital-
ian naval statistics he shows that the
United States is to-day reckoned Sec
ond among the great powers in point
Of warships under construction.
