We MUST keep
NAVY ABREAST
Of THE TIMES

Chicago March 10. Preparation for
modern naval warfare must be the work
OF peace" was the point made by Charles
j. Bonaparte. secretary Of the navy, who
was the guest OF honor at a banquet given
last night by the Embellishments Cen
trail Republican club. Secretary Bona
parte told the 700 banqueters OF the prog
ress made by the United States for the
last 40 years I'm building navy, and then
outlined his ideas OF the necessity OF keep
ing our navy 10 the front among the
world powers.
1--WE must keep our navy abreast OF the
times" said Secretary Bonaparte; must
have II ready at any moment 10 do it's
appointed work, and do this well Those
who think IL can be made ready In little
while and rest with this state Of prepa-
ration, assume the gravest responsibility.
"A week. even a day. In these days or
ocean cables and wireless telegraph, ~
worth for the purpose OF warfare a month
In the days OF our fathers. IL you wish
the navy TO be what IL should be--a safe
guard and warrant OF the country's Sc
curity and honor-you must have a navy
prepared for war at a moments notice,
and TO have such a navy we must not
waste the days OF peace.
There Is no use closing our eyes 20 the
fact that this means spending money, and
no little money. The expenses OF the navy
viii grow as the navy grows. and we can
not have a good thing unless we are Will
ing to pay for it While human nature
and human society remain what they are
war will be always possible, and some
times unavoidable, and to preserve peace
we should be, and be known TO be, ever
ready at a moments notice TO meet an
appeal to arms"

Juryman's Explanation Somewhat OF
Joke on Judge.

A lawyer in the western part oil
Massachusetts having rather des'

courts attention to the wording of
the statute. empowering the jury to
Judge of the law as well as of the
facts" and requested him to instruct
accordingly. The judge somewhat re-
luctantly did so, adding, however, that
the jurymen should accept his inter
probation OF the principles involved
unless they were fully satisfied that
they knew more law than he did.
In spite of this. an outrageous YER
dict was brought in. utterly contrary
10 the instructions of the Judge. who
severely rebuked the jurors.
The foreman. horny-handed farm

weren't we to jedge the law as well
as the facts?"
Certainly was the response, but

Because the postal administration
has imposed a duty of five pfennigs
instead of two on postal cards intend
ed for urban delivery. the citizens OF
Hanover have inaugurated singular
strike against the postal authorities.
Instead of writing postal cards, they
all write letters, and, not satished
with sending their illusions in an en-
velope, they fill it with newspaper so
as to bring the weight of the letter to
the maximum of $50 grams. As tho
envelopes they now use are OF tho
maximum size tolerated it is easy to
obstruct a letter box with only doz'
en- of such missives. The postal au'
thorities are alarmed at this obstruc'
ton of the postal service. and it is
probable that the former tariff OF two
pfennigs on postal cards will have to
be reestablished.
