Seconds the Motion.

That the inhabitants OF our outlying
territories are gradually developing ar
intelligent appreciation of the charac-
ter and purpose of the United States
Navy is pleasingly suggested by the
following editorial 'utterance of the Ho-
nolulu Gazette, apropos of the recent
visit of the Asiatic squadron to Homo
lulu: eff Admiral Evans's fleet does
nothing in regard to Colombia and re-
turns to Cavite as now directed, it will
have still made a record which win be
helpful in backing up American diplo-
macy. In naval matters mobility is
power as well as structural integrity
and gun equipment That big fight
ing fleet can be sent from one distant
point TO another in few days time,
arriving with everything in repair and
ready for another long trip with pos
sibIe war at the end of it, is a fact to
be taken account of by those who
would challenge the supremacy of the
United states Many nations have
fleets that they don't. and perhaps
can't. do much with. and the sea-going
efficiency of which is doubtful; but the
United States has pretty conclusively
proved by this time that its Navy is

London, Oct.
