Devils Lake inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, Ramsey Co., Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1905, 1903-09-11

The Democratic press is making
much over the alleged endorsement Of
General Miles by the Grand Army,
and attempts to make the public be-
lieve that Miles is a hero and a
martyr. This contention comes from
the Democratic party with little grace.
There is nothing in the history Of
that political organizati II that in
any manner indicates that it has
any particular love for those who
wore the blue IN the days that tried
mems souls. 1t is not a question in
the consideration of this matter that
tho part of the Union which now
gives an undivided support to the
Democratic party, and which CONT
tutes the ''solid SOUTH is practically
the same section that made the union
army of the sixties a necessity. That
would be sectionalism, and the
country has passed from that. But
the history of the Democratic party in
the last few years has been one of OBJ
lection to everything that pertained to
the Grand Army or it's members. It

efforts of this nation to secure these
ports and c~oaling stations is what the
Democratic party has designated as
:11nnerialism. Another thing that must
be taken into consideration in estima-
ing the strength Of the American
navy is the superior ability of the
men behind the guns. In this age OF
naval science bravery and the old
time dare devil heroism count but
little against the trained use of the
machinery of the guns. The gunnery
Of a vessel in battle now is merely
the use Of delicate Instruments and
the ability to use them is far superior
in the American seaman than in those
:: OF any other nation. There was a
,practical demonstration Of this in the
battle which Dewey himself made
famous in the late naval war with
Spain. With these things IN view it
lis not necessary to have a navy with
a numerical strength equal to the
enemy in order to be able to compete
and win. The building Of the navy

no fear for our safey, because 1T is no
