How badly off the navy is for off,
GERS and how seriously this condition
may affect the navy and the nation is
plainly told in the annual report of
Rear Admiral George a. Converse,
chief of the Bureau of Navigation, APP
proved by Secretary Norton. Expert
ence. especially in gunflre, he says, has
shown that it is necessary to increase
the number of officers assigned to ships
so that the estimate made in 1902 Of
the number of officers needed for ships
IN commission is inadequate. 1t pro-
vided for only about one-half as many
officers as ships of the same class car
ry in the British, French and Ger
man navies. Admiral Conv erse recon.
mends that the number of lieutenants
be increased from $50 to 600, and that
the number of lieutenant commanders
be increased from 200 to 300

Mr. Bryan says the paramount
issue in the next campaign must
be Shall the money changers rule
the United States2" If this means
shall the sc-called monied interests
selhshly control the government
for their own ends, to the detri-
ment Of the interests of the mass of
tie people probably few of the
rank and file in any party would
answer the question in the afirma-
tive. It is good democratic doc
trine that the government should be
conducted to secure equal rights to
all and special privileges TO none.
To make an issue, however, of an
abstract question Of this kind is i'm
possible. We must have definite
policies enunciated to give effect to
The fundamental doctrines ofdemoc-
r .cy. Unless our platform makers
can agree upon some tangible is
sues, there is little hope of win
ming votes in the next campaign.

Senator Cores statements as to
the cause Of high wages in Ameri-
ca. in his recent address in this
city, were in accord with the
soundest economic principles, as
those principles are laid down by
our ablest ecoiomists. It is just
about as plausible to argue that
larger returns from .the cultivation
of the soil in America are secured
by a protective tariff as it is 10 con-
tend that the superior wages Of
American laborers are due TO the
tariff. The American laborer is
entitled to the credit of making
his wages high by his superior ser
vice. He owes nothing to The fa-
vor Of tariff protected employers.
The returns to labor, like the re-
turns to capital, are determined by
its productiveness.
