GIVE US A NAVY.

Congress is again considering the
advisability of giving to the navy
but half of the amount asked for by
the administration. Congress
knows about these things, of course:
it knows everything. The President
and Secretary of the Navy, whose
business it is to look thoroughly in
to such matters and know the facts
in reference to the nations foreign
relations, have recommended the
addition of four battlesllips and
several other vessels to our navy.
But the committee on naval affairs
knows better than this; two battle
ships would be sufficient addition.
And so, unless some change come
over the spirit Of their dreams,
the navy of the United States will
remain at it's present strength; for
the two new battleships would only
replace "old and practically obso-
lete vessels" according to the state
ment OF Secretary Metcalf.
We are told that economy de-
mands the denial of the administra-
tons request; that the nation
stands for peace and should not en-
gage in the building of giant army
or navy. This is strange, thinks
the Charlotte Observer. These are
the Identical words used by those
who advocate the building of a navy
as great as any that rides the seas.
Who is right? What is economy in
this matter? The very fear Of war
would cost us more than a hundred
DreadnOughts, to say nothing OF the
more direful effects. The posses
sion of a navy equal, or superior, to
any in the world would be the pow
erful preventive of war against us.
Who doubts what Japan's action
would have been in the recent inter-
national friction if she had posses
sed a navy as greatly superior to
ours as is that of England? Yet
Japan is steadily building navy
Of Dreadnoughts although her treas
ury is empty; and we talk of econ
omy, In 1914 Germany will pos
sess sixteen Dreadnoughts; and yet
America continues to talk Of econ
omy.
Since the nations have refused 70
disarm, the surest method of pre-.
venting war is the building of such
powerful fighting machines that the
appalling. results of battle will deter
belligerent nations from resorting
to the arh'trament of arms. This
fear alone has kept France and
Germany at peace although the
mention of Alsace- Lorraine to a
Frenchman will all but break his
heart England's power on the
seas has given her peace, although
other nations of Europe have seen
her growth and greatness through
hate-bl eyes. But if war must
come in spite of things, we want to
be girt to the battle. Let the day of
our peril find us ready.

MIR. ROBINSON'S BILL.

Congressman Robinson Of Arkan-
sas has introduced the 100000
appropriation bill for the investiga-
ton and survey of the wet and over
flow lands of Arkansas, with the
view of their reclamation through
drainage, says the Memphis Com
mercial Appeal. This bill is more
than likely to be followed by others
of a like nature applying to swamp
conditions in other sections of the
country. for swamp land drainage
Is now a popular subject, AMI SOON
er or later the country expects to
see the government doing something
in this field similar to that which it
has been doing in retaining arid
lands Of the West.
But while each state wherein are
located swamp lands would doubt
less prefer separate appropriations
adequate to their respective needs,
Still It is evident if the government
is to take up this work, such things
as state lines must give way before
a general plan of drainage. 1t
would be wiser, then, to ask for
these appropriations in one bill, and
in a general sense, otherwise there
ds apt to to be more friction than
h r~,on1, oy,nnu 10 ;y.,c
having bills of this nature to put
through Congress.
The interior department is on rec
ord as approving swamp drainage,
Secretary Garfield reporting that:
1.-THE questions of the drainage of
swamp lands and the irrigation of
arid lands are closely connected.
There are about 7S,000,000 acres of
swamp lands in the Central and
Southeastern States. 1t is feas BILE
to drain much OF this land and
provide homes for thousands OF fam
lilies. / believe it possible to adopt
a plan, we'll within the powers OF
congress, which will permit the fed
eral government to undertake this
work, and l most earnestly urge
the early cons deration Of all phases
of the problem"
Here is an excellent basis of OPP
Grafton from which the battle for
the appropriation may be made;
but most certainly the secretary's
report contemplates some plan of
drainage that does not have to reck-
on with state lines, and il our rep
resentatives expect to interest the
government to the extent of spend
ing money in this venture they must
ask in the name of the whole people
and not for the benefit of any one
state.
The drainage movement was Civ

the subject. This convention was

Following Mr.. Garrecht, Tom Drum
heller spoke briefly on the needs OF
the club to have the rooms properly
furnished. To do this he said would
take $500. He appealed to the men
present to help in the furnishing of
the rooms and succeeded in raising
s341O of the needed sum.
Prof. Hendrick spoke briefly on the
New Whitman college his remarks be-
ing received with hearty applause. He
said the prospects for the completion
of the work undertaken were bright
and expressed his belief that the citi-
zens would come to the aid of the
movement and start the ball rolling.

next and was followed by the Lone

perience in Dallas, Texas, at the ma
tional convention of the Elks.
Following the speeches, punch and
