There are many citizens in every
town who could be eliminaed without
injury or loss to the town. On the
other hand there are many individu
ais whose absence would be keenly felt
by every city in which they reside.
AS general rule everybody knows the
useful citizen and has pretty good
line on the useless man. The useful
citizen is the one who has an aim
above his own welfare. One who sees
the general betterment of his town
the benefits which will accrue to him
individually is in fair way to become a
useful citizen. The man who attends
meetings designed for the welfare of
the whole city is a useful citizen.
The man who remains away from pub
lie meetings and who takes no interest
in the promotion of public matters
until after the creative stage is passed
and then finds fault with the plans is
worse than useless citizen; he is an
obstacle.

If the Utah and Florida. each of
2l,s55 tons normal displacement and
% COB tons full load, are ready to
join the flag there will be six
Dreadnaughts in the naval review at
New York early in November. The
Utah and Florida have been COM
pleted, and both are now lying at
the New..Yor navy yard. Therefore the
presumption is they will be in line.
In counting six Dreadnaughts we in
clude the South Carolina and Mich
igan, because they were laid down
after the British battleship Dread
naught. the plans for the American
battleships were prepared before the
Admiralty decided to build the Dread
naught. AS all big-gun ships the
South Carolina and Michigan should
be classed as Dreadnaughts. They
have normal displacement of 49,
600 tons and a full load displace-
ment of 1857 tons. The other
Dreadnaughts in the United States
navy, the Delaware and North Da-
kota, have nomal displacement of
10000 and full load displacement
of about %, 600 tons.
The other battleships of displace-
ment equal to the South Cardinals
which can be put into the line at the
November review are the Kansas, Yer
mont, Minnesota. New Hampshire,
Louisiana and Connecticut, but as
their main battery consists of only
four l2-inch guns, as compared with
eight Of these guns on the South Car
olna and Michigan. they cannot be
termed Dreadnaughts. There will
also be available for the great spec
tacle a number of other battleships
almost as large as the six vessels just
mentioned and having total battery
power little inferior to theirs: The
Idaho and Mississippi, of full load
displacement of IA, 465 tons and main
battery of four 12-inch guns; the Vir-
ginia. New Jersey, Georgia, Nebraska
and Rhode Island of 16, tons full
load displacement and the Ohio. Maine
and Missouri, of IS, ton full load
displacement all of them carrying main
batteries of four 12-inch guns.
These groups are all distinctively
modern; every ship has been built
since 1900. They differ in total
battery power and speed, but even the
least formidable of them, the Ohio,
Maine and Missouri would be indis-
pensable in a war with a first class
naval power. The people of New
York will, therefore, see brave show
of battleships pass in review, such
fleet as no other nation but England
could match. In a calculation of
Dreadnaught battleships and cruisers
completed and building the special
lists give Germany the second place
as a naval power. Germany at this
writing may have as many as seven
Dreadnaughts actually in commits
sion, including the armored cruiser
Won Der Tam, but in the pre-Dread-
naught class Germany is much infer
ior to the United States; so much
so, indeed, that the German fight
