THIS FIGHTER

THE NORTH DAKOTA is THE
BEST DREADNOUGHT IN
THE WIDE WORLD.
CANADA INCREASES ARMY
Fastest and Best Battleship-The
Canadian Northwest Army-Vari-
Gus Matters.

The North Dakota is the fastest
battleship of the Dreadnought type
afloat, as well as one of the two most
powerful battleships in the world.
Her screw Standardization tests
over the Rockland, Me-, measured
mile course developed a maximum
speed of 22.25 knots. and an average
OF 21.S33. Both marks are in excess
of the best performances of either
her sister ship, the Delaware, or the
Bellerophon, the leader Dreadnough
of the British navy.
In attaining this surprising speed
the turbine engines of the North Da-
kota were forced to the development
of more horsepower than has been
reached by any battleship ahoat. A
maximum of 30, $50 horsepower was
recorded, while 33S75 horsepower
was the mean amount. The maxi
mum number of revolutions of her
nickel composition propellers was
2S6 minute. It was found that 263
revolutions in this time were suffici-
ent to maintain the contract speed of
81 knots.

To Guard the Northwest.

Pursuant to a plan to station $4,000
well drilled soldiers between the great
lakes and the Rocky Mountains, the
Canadian government has ordered an
other squadron of regulars to locate
in Winnipeg, doubling the strength of
the Strathcona Horse and the Royal
Canadian regiment at Fort Osborne.
The military forces will be stationed
from 20 to 60 miles north of the boun-
dairy line near the present centers Of
population.
The Canadian minister of militia,
IL is said. believes that the prairies
furnish Canada's best fighting force
and for this reason the regulars have
been ordered TO the northwest.
Mounted corps are springing up in
every direction in the farming dis
tricts and applications for new organi-
cations are pouring in. 1t is thought
that this is due TO recent public
speeches of Lord Northcliffe, Earl
Grey, Lord Miner and others, who
have famed the fame Of military am
bition throughout western Canada.

ECONOMY NEEDED I
There Is a Chance For Some Good
Work by Congress.

There ls a Chance For some Soou
Work by Congress.
Members of congress who are re-
turning TO Washington after the re-
cent elections are making calcula-
lions on the amount of money TO De
expended by the government during
the next fiscal year. II seems 10
be the consensus of opinion that
the coming session of congress VIII
not cut the appropriations below the
figures at the last session Of inc
sixty-first congress.
II such proves to be the case. IL
is estimated that congress, at its next
session will appropriate in the neigh
borhood of $1,000, 100000. This would
seem to be an enormous amount OF
money in view of the cry of economy
that has been going the rounds at
each of the various executive de-
partments and the effort now being
made by the several cabinet ot1cers
to cut down their expenses to the
very minimum
The appropriations made during the
last session of the siXty-frst con-
gress, in round numbers $1,044,OOO,-
900, broke all previous records. For
years back, the appropriations have
been going up at the rate of about
$30,000,O00 a year. Figuring on this
basis, the amount of money to be eX-
pended during the next session Will
probably reach $1,100, 100000.
