NAVY COST NOT INCREASING.
Secretary Meyer Gives House Com.
mittee Interesting Facts.

Secretary Meyer has given the House
naval committee some interesting facts
about the cost Of building ships in the
navy yards, and incidentally dissipated
the idea that the navy was over-officered
and that a large proportion Of the OIL
GERS spent their time ashore.
He said that the big dreadnought Flor
ida cost $11 less per ton to build in the
New York navy yard than the Connecti-
cut, by way of meeting the charge that
navy yard work was increasing in cost
The big Utah was built by q private
concern at a loss of half a million dollars
and other battleships were built in private
shipyards under similar conditions, which
was one reason why the cost of navy
yard work appeared to be excessive. The
Secretary admitted. however, that there
was room for improvement and that the
cost of navy yard work could be brought
down by the adoption of modern systems
of management such as were employed in
some of the big private British yards.
Touching the question of personnel, the
Secretary made a strong plea for the per-
manent addition to the naval lists of the
grades Of admiral and vice admiral. SO
that our forces should not be outranked
by foreign powers in joint movements.

Public Policy the Issue.

Il am not primarily concerned with
methods; my aim is to secure the right
of the people to decide for themselves,
according to the principles of common
sense and justice, what the public policy
shall be in these matters. l am con-
cerned with the end, not the means. If
in any state the constitution so clearly
defined the power of the legislature to
act for the general welfare as to pro-
hibit the courts from multiplying any
law that is consonant with morality and
jority of the people, and if in actual
practice the courts respected such con-
stitutional prohibition. then there would
be no need for what l propose; because
in such case there would be full recog-
milton of the absolute right of the peo-
pie to decide the policy of their repre-
sentatives, legislative and judicial, in
these matters-and this is all for which
l contend.
but in actual practice I know no state
where such conditions prevail: they GER
tainly do not prevail in the state Of New
York. Therefore 1 hold that provision
should be made in the constitutions of
the several states which. in the event of
a clash between the legislature and the
court as to the constitutionality of such
legislation as I have spoken of, should
permit the people themselves to decide
what the true Interpretation OF the con-
stitution is. / am not concerned with
Technology. Whether this is called q
referendum to the people or whether It
Is called a shorter and simpler way OF
amending the constitution, to my mind
matters nothing. The essential thing Is
tn get the mower for the people.

Should Bow to Peoples Will.

Should Bow to Peoples Will.
Therefore we hold that, as regards
these questions of public policy, courts.
like executives and legislatures, must
bow to the sober and well-thought-out
judgment of the people.
LET me repeat once more what I have
so often said-that am not now speak
ing of ordinary cases Of justice between
man and man, such as must be decided
by judges here in America as they are
decided by judges in all other lands
shall speak of these cases in some SUBJ
sequent articles, in which / shall ask the
people soberly to consider such facts as
those set forth by Mr.. c. p. Connolly in
his recent articles in Everybody's Maya
zine.
In this article I speak purely Of the
kind of decision which only American
courts are entitled to Inake-the kind of
decision which no judge in our neighbor
Canada, in Australia, in England, in
Germany or in France has the right to
make, or would for one moment be per-
mitted to make. Nor, at the moment, am
1 treating of the action of the national
courts. because the federal form of our
government makes it more difficult to
propose a working remedy in the case
of the nation than in the case of the
several states. l am speaking of the
action of the court of a state when it de-
clares that law passed in the collective
interest of the whole community is I'M
constitutional, and / have especially in
view the laws affecting human rights
from a most vital standpoint-the laws
and employment among the wage-work-

to say that such process would leave

AMPLIFIEs COLUMBUS SPEECH

NEW YORK, March S.-Col. Theodore
Roosevelt has an article entitled DO You
Believe in the Rule of the People?" in
the current issue of 1.-THE Outlook The
article in full is as follows:
There has been much effort made to
fog the issue raised in my Columbus
speech. In reality. the issue is perfectly
simple: Do you believe in the rule of he
people? If you do, you are with us. If
you do not, you are against us.
Many good and honorable persons do
not believe in the rule Of the people. and
openly say so. We disagree with these
persons. but we can respect them. There
are other persons, however, who do not
believe in the rule Of the people, but who
dare not say so, and who endeavor by
trickery, by chicanery, by fraud, to
seem to give the people the right to rule
and at the same time to deprive them of
that right. These persons we do not re-
spect.
Let the men of little faith who fear
the people keep steadily in mind that
they have no part in the heritage OF
Abraham Lincoln and Of those who
worked with him for the preservation Of
this nation Abraham Lincoln did not
try to trick or defraud the people into
freeing the slave and restoring the Union;
he appealed to them in the name OF duty,
in the name of honor and self-sacrifice,
to risk all, including life itself. for high
ideal, and the people responded, and
Abraham Lincoln was justified and the
slave was freed and the Union preserved
Dropped From Lincoln's Hands.
''Those who stand for the cause of So
cial and industrial justice. to be obtained
through the genuine rule Of the people,
are but carrying forward the work which
dropped from Abraham Lincoln's hands
when the patient, tired, kindly eyes were
closed forever. He strove against in
trenched wrong. against privilege In the
most hateful form of his day. We, in
our day, strive against hateful forms OF
intrenched wrong and privilege. We are
not striving in bitterness of spirit or
with anger and hatred. AS far as In US

PREDICTS EARLY DATE
FOR EQUAL SUFFRAGE
Mrs. Ida Hustled Harper Very
Sanguine That Women
Will Triumph.

Mrs. Ida Hustled Harper, one of the
foremost advocates of equal suffrage in
New York, struck a popular keynote be-
more an audience of woman suffragists
today at the home of Mrs Arthur J.
by a vigorous appeal for the extension of
universal suffrage to women, which, she
declared, is a thing of the near future
Mrs. Parsons, who introduced the
speaker. also declared that the time
had come when suffrage should be grant
ed to women in every state, and that
present-day problems demanded that the
women be allowed to vote in order that
the best candidate might win at the cleo
tions. She told of the progress being
made in foreign countries by women who
are demanding the franchise, and said
that it will not be long before the women
of every prominent foreign power will
cast their ballots at the election.
Mrs. Harper's Theme.
Twentieth Century Suffrage" was the
topic Of Mrs. Harper's address. and she
traced the progress of the suffrage move
ment from it's beginning to the present
day. A notable feature Of the cause she
declared to be In the case of the city Of
Los Angeles, where, after the disaster of
the Times building, which was wrecked
by the Mcnamara brothers. the press and
the citizens were unanimous In begging
the women to vote.
Mrs. Harper said home duties In the
future would not be hindered by the wom-
en- voting, especially when there are
others at the home to watch the baby
while the mother takes half an hour off
to vote.
Vote for Best Candidate.
Wherever they have voted women al
ways have stood for the best candidate,
Mrs. Harper said, and in those states
where suffrage has been extended to
them there has been no complaint on the
part OF the men or any desire to take the
right away from the women, who stand
for law, order and common decency.
