WHEN Mr.. WILLIS, of Talbot county, intro
duced in the House of Delegates a resolution
extending an invitation to Col. William Jen-
nings Bryan to address that body, he threw
bonobshell into the Democratic camp and it
HAS sometime before the faithful recovered.
Sreaker Wilkinson was quick to catch on and
promptly referred the sesolution to the Com
r,;ttee ON Federal Relations, where it died, of
course. Referring to this affair the Cecil Dem
oes.t gets around it very nicely when it says
yfr Willis and all others should know that
she State Legislature is not political conven-
ton. but an assembly of representatives,
charged with certain duties, the faithful dis
charge of which is expected by their constitu-
ents without reference to politics. Because
legislative body is composed largely OF one
party is no reason why it should be converted
into a campaign society TO advance the inter
ests of that particular party, and those VINO
seek to do so should receive prompt and pos
itive rebuke.'

after. To some ii may appear to be an
unwise policy in view Of the present short
age among officers to put large ships in
commission when their services are not
required. Tbe very fact that these ships
are new is the main reason, however, why
they should go into active service. They
need some cruising to shake down their
machinery and get it in easy working or
der and TO overcome the deterlorating eff
feet on their hulls by long standing in the
water at the places where they were and
are being constructed.
The plan of the Navy Department is TO
withdraw most of the large vessels from
the Philippines and such smaller ones as
have been in those waters for long time
and need repairs in consequence. BY the
withdrawal of the Marblehead only the
Philadelphia and the Iowa will be left on
the Pacific station in addition to a few
auxiliary vessels engaged in surveying
work. The Detrot's withdrawal from ac-
tive service will leave the Government
without any small cruiser available for
looking ont for American interests in Cen
trail America and the West Indies. The
gunboat Machias will have to do all this
exacting duty in the future, as the auxil-
larry gunboat Vixen is needed for other
duty.

Consul Hay at Pretoria has cabled the

story that Captain Reichmann, the military

The first orders looking to large re-
ruction of the United States naval force in
the Philippines and the withdrawal from
service of a number Of vessels on other sta
lions were issued by the Navy Department
yesterday Instructions were sent TO Rear
Admiral Watson, at Yokohama, to send the
Eunboats Bennington and Concord TO San
Francisco. with short time officers and
men. An order was telegTaphed to Com
nander Kennedy, Of the cruiser Detroit in
Central American waters. TO proceed to
Portsmouth. " H., where the vessel will
be placed out of commission.
Directions were also sent to the Mare
Island Navy Yard to place the cruiser
Marblehead out of commission at that
place. In addition 10 these four ships the
monitors Monterey and Monadnock will be
withdrawn from service in the Philippines
as soon as the Navy Department can find
a suitable place in the Far East to lay
them up The cruiser Baltimore will leave
Yokohama for New York, with Admiral
Watson on board, as soon as Rear Admiral
Remey relieves Admiral Watson of the
command OF the Asiatic station.
This programme of reducing the number
of vessels in commission has been in con-
temptation for some time. 1t was intended
ct first TO decrease only the strength Of the
Philippine feet, but the programme OF re-
duction now being arranged of which the
orders issued yesterday mark the begin
ring. is due largely TO another cause. The
failure OF Congress to increase the number
of officers in the Navy is given as the rea-
son for the reduction OF the naval forces
IN commission. More enlisted men are
needed also, but the necessity for them is
not so pressing.
Through putting the battleship Kear-
sarge in commission, the Navy Department
was obliged to assign to that vessel nearly
every officer available for sea duty, and the
ship is still short of her official personnel
The statement was made yesterday by a
naval officer who has looked into the mat
ter that the Kearsarge has Just about
half as many officers as a Russian British
or German ship OF the same size. case
illustrating the extremes TO which the
Navy Department is put TO secure officers
for sea duty is that of Lieutenant Com
nander ]. c. Gilmore who was prisoner
in the hands of the Filipinos for eight
months. He returned to Washington a
couple of weeks ago. and while the De
partment would have been glad to have
permitted MIN to recuperate on shore from

When the Kentucky, sister ship of the

ton OF the ships in active service will be
necessary unless Congress furnishes some
relief by authorizing the graduation of
the present four-year class at Annapolis
and giving its members commissions as
enAgns without compelling them TO serve
two additional years at sea as cadets.
