Dewey Wants Big Navy.

New York, Sept 2.-Admiral George
Dewey has contributed an article to the
current issue of a Navy periodical, IN
which he gives the strength of the
fleets that Great Britain, France and
Germany could assemble for their
Summer maneuvers, as compared with
our small fleet assembled at Bar
Harbor.
"Our immense coast line and our rap
idly increasing world trade" says the
Admiral, demand a navy. We must
have it for our own protection and il
rests with the Navy League to install
this idea into the minds of all classes of
citizens until the pressurs of public
opinion gives us such navy as is need
ed for the countrv's prestige or safety"
The British fleet that is in home
waters alone-fo mig but a fraction OF
the British Navy-and which would be
available as an evolutionary squadron
includes 80 battleships aud 80 cruisers.
The home French fleet includes 16
bait eships ard II cruisers.
The home feet of Germany, eight bat.
ileships and i've cruisers.

Mill Creek Land Withdraw Wn /.

Walla Walla, Wash, Sept. 4.-Three
thousand acres at Mill Creeks head
waters were withdrawn from all entry
today by telegraph order from the
Department of the Interior which is
supposed to design the withdrawal as
natural storage basin for Mill Creek 8
Spring overflow. This is the stream
which flows through the center of Walla
Wal.a and is used quite extensively on
either side for irrigation.
The withdrawn strip is sections l, II i,
IL, 13 and IA, township 6, range 3S, and
ranges some FIVE miles along the creek 8
hoadwaters.
The district was recently examined by
Special Government Agent w. H. B.
Kent on natural reservoir hunting
tour. The establishment of such a
storage basin would be of eat benefit
to Walla Wala Valley gardeners within
reach of Mill Creek, as water famine is
aonually feared.
