EVOLUTION OF THE BArrLEsH1p.

The armored battleship of the TWEEN
tieth Century is the lineal descendant
of the war-galley of the First. Consid-
ering the relative aspects of the war
fare of their respective periods, the
flagship Connecticut has about the same
martial duties to perform as the heavy
trireme of the Caesars.
The genealogy of the modern battle
ship is easily traced. In every age it
has kept pace with the progress of in,
vention and the increased complexities
of the science of war.
The. extension of navigation by the
increasing use of sails resulted, by
steady stages, in the increased size of
warships, and the invention of gun
powder added to their effectiveness as
well as their powers of offense, for
men of-war now became not merely
vehicles for soldiers fighting with
manual weapons, but with their cannon,
actual fighting machines themselves, as
they are to this day.
The lineof battleship, or ship-of the.
line, of the days of Drake, Hawkins,
Van Tromp. De Ruyter and other
famous admirals of three to five cen
turtles ago, was a huge sailing ship,
mounting many guns of varied cali
bre, and carrying large crews. 1t was
these ships, the battleships of their day,
that, like those of the present era,
bore the brunt of the battle and car
ried or lost the day. improvements in
sailing and maneuvering qualities, and
in armament, were steadily introduced,
until we find in the stately ships of-the-
line of Nelson s day, century ago, the
pinnacle of a warship's glory in the age
of sails. These great wooden, wind.
propelled battleships carried from IA to
40 guns each, carried in two or three
gun decks and a spar deck above.
The introduction of steam, the rifed
gun and the explosive shell introduced
new problems, and the steam frigate
and the iron-clad resulted With the
Improvement in machinery and in the
power of ordnance, sails were gradually
abandoned altogether, armor was made
of steel of better and better quality,
and the huge steel battleship Of to-
day, veritab1e floating fortress, is the
result.

NOW CALLS IT
CAMPAIGN LIE
Nicholas longworth, in Statement,
Denies Remarks Made in Ad-
dress in Rock Island
AS TO THE PRESIDENCY
Declares He Did Not Suggest Roose-
welt as Candidate in Eight Years
just What He Did Say.

Cincinnati, Oct. 5.-Congressman
Nicholas Longworth today denounced
as a campaign lie the widely printed
story that in his speech at Rock Is
land, ILL.,, he proposed that after Taft
had served two terms as president
that Roosevelt would again be a can
didate for president.
Longworth's statement is as follows:
"The facts of the case are that at
meeting at Rock Island | was in
troduced by the chairman of the meet
ing as son of Ohio. and since Ohio
seemed determined to break the rec
ord as a mother of presidents, he said
i'll 4 jocular vein that / probably
would be 4 candidate myself. Reply
ing in a similar vein. | said l was not
there as candidate for any office, but
and to advocate the election of Taft
for president not in future, but now.
| said | believed confidently that Taft
would be elected president and that
his administration would be so wise
and beneficial to the people that they
would demand he would serve them
another term. After that, | said,
Ohio would not be selfish. but would
yield to some other state. perhaps
New York, to nominate the next
president. | had no particular candi,
date in mind, New York coming first
to my mind because of the presence
of Sherman on the platform. At that
point many people shouted Roosevelt
and the audience cheered his name
loudly. l am not surprised that some
democratic newspapers should have
taken this up, because the democratic
party is lost and ANXIOUS to distract
the peoples attention from the issue
of the day and talk about either the
remote future or the past. The story
that | said it would be approved by
the president is absolutely false. ]
have never even thought of. much
less mentioned, the incident until
now"
How Could He Do 1t:
Now what do you think of that?
After making these statements be-

fore an audience of several thousand
intelligent people of Rock Island and
this community!
The remarks of Congressman Long
worth were of so remarkable charac-
ter that any one who heard them is
certain to recall his statements. Con-
gresham Mckinney of this district,
acting as chairman, introduced Con-
gresham Longworth III flowery style.
Congressman Mckinney said he
though it high time Ohio should
snatch from Virginia the title of
mother of presidents and he went
on 10 say that there was present a
man eligible not only from his resi-
dence in Ohio, but from his own
achievements, as candidate for the
presidential chair. And Congressman
Mckinney concluded by saying that
he wanted to introduce Congressman
Longworth as a man who was likely
in the not far distant future to be the
occupant of the presidential chair
himself.
And This Is What He Said.
After making few Introductory
remarks, Congress Longworth said
that he felt it his duty to thank Con.
gresham Mckinney for starting to
boom him for an Office to which he
does not aspire.
Continueing he said 81 had thought
that the republican ticket for the next
light years should be William Howard
Taft of Ohio. And for the eight years
following that had thought it should
be Theodore Roosevelt of New York
And for the eight years after that my
good friend, James S. Sherman, also
of New York. And after that-but
am too modest to continue
AS far as Rock Island is concerned
nothing but this has been said re
garding Congressman Longworth s
statements. Coming from the son-in
law of President Roosevelt, the sug
gestion of Roosevelt as a candidate
in eight years was of course signifi
cant, and it attracted wide attention
Stuck to 1t Yesterday.
Strange, too. what change OF
Longworth whose belated denial now
comes forth from Cincinnati Even as
late as yesterday he was reiteratine
the Rock Island statement. At Evans
vile, Ind, he seemed quite elated
over the attention he had attracted
as witness the following from the AS
ISOLATED Press of last night. Evident
| ly the president has been doing some
calling down:
Evansville. Ind. Oct. 4.-Congress
man Longworth spent today going
over the papers to see what comments
had been made on his speech at Rock
Island, in which he said that Mr.. Taft
should be elected this fall, reelected
four years hence, and then Mr.. Roose
welt should be reelected again.
Mr.. Longworth said he made the
statement in all seriousness and was
glad to see that the newspapers ha6
| played up the utterances so well. He
cut out all references to his speech ant
