QUOTED NAPOLEON.
Secretary Bonaparte Before Navy League at Capital.
'IS NOT OUR NAVY TOO SMALL?"
Called Upon Militia to Assist In Popularixing the Service-Govern- ment Wants Only We'll
 Trained Men.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte made an inter- esting address before joint gathering of the Navy league and tue Associa- tion of Naval Militia of the United States, both of which organizations are holding conventions here.
 In this address Secretary Bonaparte spoke of the personnel of the navy and urged the development of public sen timent favorable to the navy. He said it was encouraging to him to appear before such a gathering, ''and," he added, it is time when the secre- tary of the navy needs frieLds and en- couragement We want your aid for various reasons and to various ends" He said the national legislators ought to be impressed with the idea that they should be as liberal to the navy as they can be without fear of popular disap- proval.
 He called upon the members of the naval militia to assist in popularizing the navy The department, he said, did not want the navy filled with peo- pie who go into it with the belief that they are to have good time. A very wide misconception, he said, exists among very many people as to the navy, and this is voiced by certain newspapers For instance" he said, "the question is raised, Is our navy <,o Ioroa9s Tho i,anar+anf auoctios. ic Is not our navy too small for national safetyY"
 He declared that the navy must be reckoned with as a fighting organiza- ton. In the next few years this coun- try may have fewer ships on its regis try, but he said there would be no re- ductien in the quality of the ships of the several classes.
 Secretary Bonaparte recalled the words of Napoleon l., that "a man is not soldier" and paraphrased them by saying that likewise man is not a sailor, meaning, as he explained, that not all men, no matter how good other wise. were naturally adapted to sail or's life.
 He made an eloquent plea for the de- velopment of a public sentiment that would cause people to look with honor upon the sailors uniform and would no longer permit the county's defenders to be turned away from entertainments in public houses and ipa places 4 of amusement because they were the1sail. or's blue suit His expressions on this point were greeted with great applause.
