lon. There has been wide spread
impression that considerable pro-
portion OF the men. perhaps from :,
fourth to third, were OF ALLEN birth
and II Is known that In some other
naries, notably the British, such con-
dltions prevail to an extent which
causes some dsquitude to critical
observers. or course. II goes without
saying that all men or the navy
should be citizens OF the United
States 1t Is not essential that they
should be native born citizens, but
1t is desirable. partly because of
the character and quality OF the men
thus assured to the service ana part
~ TO have a service which appeals
successfully 10 the best classes OF
the population.
Conditions and life in the navy
have changed greatly within the
memory OF men now living. Formerly
IN wooden sailing vessel, or in
one with sails and auxiliary steam
power. such us prevailed down to
IL generation ago, the enlisted men
were Sailors In the old meaning of
tie word. Now the ship Is !,
nuatlng machine OF metal, instinct
with steam and electricity, and the
crew Is composed Of engineers and
electricians. 1t Is gratifying TO know
that present day conditions are ut
least us attractive as those of old
ard that native born American cit
liens, who seek and who desire the
best classes of employment, can be
found to MI the places In the navy.
1t ought always to be so, and the
naval service should be favoritc
resort of men of character and
worth. The enlisted men should be
nhle to feel that--like the recruit
in the French or German army-he
will be better man morally and
physically at the end of his term of
service than he was at the begin
Ming. His mechanical education and
training, the disclplining Of his mind
anC disposition, and the evrerienre
and observation of the world which
he acquires should all be of lasting
value to him. There is to be found
nowhere worthIer type of American
manhood than the officers of the
navy. Whether II will ever be poss-
ible for enlisted men generally to be
eligible for promotion to official rank,
even to the extent that It Is In the
army. may be questioned. There Is
something to be said on each side.
But at least the enlisted men may
be kept worthy of the officers.

SOUTHERN FAIR IN THE NoRTL

The Cincinnati Chamber of Com.
merce has launched n movement to
have some time during 1907 a.
Southern Fair" at which shall be
exhibited the products OF the field
factory and farm of the South. The
promoters of the scheme say that
their idea OF the fair Is to educate
the people of the North of the great
possibilities of the South and that
1t would lead to immigration and
tho incoming of more capital. There
Is no doubt but that the South is
less understood in such agricultural
states MS Iowa and Nebraska, than
1t is elsewhere, Southern men
who have TO travel through that sect
lon are always impressed with tho
Ignorance and prejudice by the WORTH
lest people. which Is not to be OBJ
served In the Eastern or Middle
states.
II properly conducted there is no
doubt that such an exposition would
he Of great benefit to the South. 1t
would attract attention TO the mill
ions Of acres OF land that can be
purchased at one-nfth or one-tenth
the prices that prevail in the Central
West and would possibly stop TO an
extent the migration of farmers to
the new country recently opened in
Northwest Canada. And then every
agency that leads TO Il more friendly
understanding between the sections
Is praiseworthy. 1t is a certainty
that If the plans of the people of
Cincinnati are consumated the peo
pic of the South generally would
aid In making the fair success
that the promoters desire.
