NAVAL ORNAMENTS.

The British Naval authorities ere said
to be preparing plans for . war-ship SO
per cent greater than the Dreadnaught,
or with a displacement Of 30 900 tons.
Our naval designers have proposed to
build a warship of Al, 600 tons. which will
cost $2O, 1000, 900. When will this rivalry
for the SIZE and number OF war ehips
cease, or what will satisfy this craving
for war preparations In the end it
must impOveIish the people OF all coun.
tries that strive for supremacy, for there
is not only the vast outlay for building
these enormous war engines, but the
constant expense Of keeping them in re.
pair and in commission. Experience
shows that in about ten years our fineet
war-ships few years ago, are now but
fit for the scrap-heap.
The Limitation OF land and naval ar
maments is something the world must
soon agree upon. for it is senseless to tax
people for the c. cation OF that which is
really useless.

censes, and May Have
Privileges for
Sale to Highest
Bidder.

TACOMA. Dec. est is probable that
saloon licenses in this city will in the fu.
ture be put up by the city council and
sold at auction. President L. L. Doud i,
OF the council, is in favor OF the innova
ton, and in fact. it is his suggestion. A.
the first step towards euch move the
council last night passed an ordinance
limiting the number OF saloon licenses to
their present number of 1873 until the
city has a population Of l40. 600 people.
1t is the prevalent opinion among the
councilmen that there should not be
more than one saloon to every thousand
people in the city. For this reason ap.
plications Tor new licenses have been re-
fused for several weeks pact, and the
council has now clinched its attitude IN
the matter by passing the ordinance,
and this afternoon the measure Was
signed bv the mayor.
With the passing OF the ordinance it is
found that all the saloon licenses OF the
city are at a high premium. and the
councilmen are wondering upon what
basis they will grant licenses to new ca
looms when the growing population Of
the city makes it possible for license to
be granted. They ell admit that there
will probably be scores OF applications
for the one or so licenses that can be
given from time TO time, each with az
just right as any other for recognition.
President Doud says the only way out Of
the difficulty is for the council to put up
the licenses and sell them to the highest
bidder.
