wise have a Pacific fleet of sixteen
battleships, with eight battleships as a
reserve. With these, of course, would
go the necessary cruisers and other
vessels for fleet of the size mention
ed.
"The reason why the cruise teaches
us that we should have big Atlantic
fleet is quite plain. The cruise of the
ships in any command was made at
the average rate Of ten knots an
hour. That rate was just about the
speed at which the fleet could have
made the cruise in war time. In
other words, it would have required
the same length of time for the At
lantic fleet to have gone around to the
Pacific If state of war had been ON
as it did in times of peace. What does
that mean? 1t means that, If war had
been on, it would have taken us about
four months to get the Atlantic fleet
to the Pacific coast During that time
the Pacific coast would have been al
most unprotected as far as battleships
are concerned
"The deduction to be made, there
fore-and 1T is the chief deduction, as
said before, Of the entire cruise
is that we should maintain on the
Pacific fleet as big as the one we
maintain on the Atlantic"
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1908-05-16
ADMIRAL EVANS, VIEWS

\ The record breaking trip of the
Atlantic fleet to the Pacific waters
has been taken by the American peo-
pie as wonderful demonstration OF
the efficiency of the navy. The fast
schedule time set for the cruise was
made with ease and the boats arrived
at the California coast in as good
shape as when they left the Atlantic.
The lesson drawn from the cruise was
that the American navy had proved
its efficiency. Admiral Evans, how
ever, views the situation differently.
To him the cruise furnished
proof that the navy, as it is at
present is not strong enough to pro-
tect American waters in time of war.
Admiral Evans says:
The one overshading lesson to be
drawn in this-we need as big a
Pacific fleet as an Atlantic. Instead
of the Twenty-Five battleships that we
now have we should have forty-eight.
We should have an Atlantic fleet Of
sixteen battleships, with eight battle
ships as a reserve. We should like

BUYING GOLD BRICKS.

You know how sorry you and feel
for the party who buys gold bricks.
While you and do really feel sorry
for them and pity them, yet we can
not resist laughing about how they get
fooled. It is really funny and ridicul-
GUS to think how everybody but you
and will go against some kind of
game.
Have you ever bought gold brick?
No?
Is that so? Are you sure you never
have?
Well, you look to me just like you
had. Are you sure that you never
bought some of the stock of the gold
mines that ,adjoined the claim Of Dia-
mond & Ruby that was paying four
billion dollars monthly dividend and
that they were really now working
over on the claim you were buying
stock in; or that you never bought
some Of the linen that was "smuggled
over" and was worth SOC or Coo r
yard, but on account Of getting it in
so it escaped the revenue collector
''you can have it for IS cents yard"
and then you find that your neighbor
bought some of the same goods for
80 cents yard and then you go down
to the store to match it and you find
you could get all you wanted just
like it for Is cents? The only diff
ference in the goods being that in the
store it costs you about half as much
and is bright, new, healthy and clean
and the other has been packed"
around the county and opened up
and displayed, you do not know
where.
l really believe you are the party
who bought that table linen, too.

Jane Adams of Hull house, Chi
cago, dropped a few remarks in an
address the other day that should
interest some mothers who try to
raise boys as if they were hot house
plants. She said
"a boy without a playground means
a man without job she declared.
The modern city was built for adults
and not with the idea of giving, chill
dren chance to tear around and
play When you repress the boastful
spirit in boy, that spirit makes him
want to do things no one else can,
you cripple him mentally and the
habit of repression grows until in
later life when he meets difficulty,
he has no initiative.
