Modern craftsmanship is puzzling TO mere
students Of history. Our War Department
fought the Spanish-American war without
the assistance OF the ranking officer. and
our Naval Department apparently consid-
ers itself competent TO direct the move
ments of our fleet in Chinese waters with
out the advice Of the ranking officer OF the
navy. though Admiral Dewey is generally
thought TO be specially fitted by expert
ence and study for dealing with the Orien-
tai question. whether OF war or diplomacy.
In fact. old-fashioned people thought that
he would have been on his way 10 China
weeks ago instead OF travelling about the
country assisting in public and social func-
tons. The general impression Is that for
political reasons our country is deprived OF
the services OF it's best men where they
are most needed.
