gather consequently, as the only alternative,
congress will be appealed to for money to
build a new and up-to-date navy yard on
some new site on San Francisco Bay.
Easily the most radical of all the proposals
having to do with navy yard consolidation and
the one that has resulted in the greatest storm

number of our navy yards and thus eliminat-
ing a considerable portion of the industrial
plants now scattered along our seacoasts as
Quitting and repair stations for Uncle Sans
war craft. Various advantages are claimed for
the new method Of managing things, but one
of the principal arguments, as may be sur
missed, is that it will enable the government
to save a lot Of money every year.
Action by the congress of the United States
is required before this proposal can be car
ried out in anything like its full scope, but al
ready a beginning has been made in line with
the new policy. Thus we see two navy yards,
those at New Orleans and Pensacola, Florida,
virtually abandoned save for caretakers, and
the work which was formerly done there trans
ferred to other plants in the south where, with
the larger forces of workmen available, 1t can
be handled more expeditiously. If the officials
have their way the navy yards at San Juan,
Port Royal, New London, Sacketts Harbor,
Culebra and CARTE will also be abandoned in
short order. But of course this is easier said
than done, for no town or. city wants to see its
navy yard abandoned any more than 1t wants
to see ole of its local manufacturing plants
removed to some rival city and consequently
each community thus affected can be depended
upon to fight the proposal through members Of
congress and any other national authorities
upon whom influence can be brought to bear.
To appreciate the position of the naval Off
cials on this mooted question 1t is necessary
to bear In mind the functions of a navy yard,
as they regard them. The head of the navy
department contends that navy yards are pri-
marily for use in time of war and only incl
IDENTIFY for use in time of peace. They are

To the casual observer there
was nothing in the appearance: of
the man who entered the elevator
to attract attention. To the
criminal, world, however, the
mention of his name caused the
boldest to tremble. There was an
alertness about the eye and a sug-.
gestion of strength in the broad
shoulders and sinewy form which
proclaimed their possessor no or
binary being. He was in fact Ned
Nerve, the detective.
1t was the morning following
one of the boldest robberies in the
city's history. The home of Max
Million, the banker, had been
broken into and considerable
jewelry had been taken. There
was but one man who could clear
up the matter, and that was the
man who had just entered the ele-.
vator in disguise.
Upon reaching the inner office
the sleuth snuffed some cocaine
and quickly applied the hypoder-
mic. Great clouds Of tobacco
smoke soon loated over his head.
He was. thinking. His reputa-,
ton was at stake. so.
Among the stolen articles was
a beautiful pearl necklace valued
a $4,000. The manner in which

The detective accepted re

easily took in the situation. His

HOT AIR AND RED BANDANAs.

Under the sitting grip OF the pom
derous republican majority in this state
Michigan has been denied for the great
or part OF i2 years the benefit OF heal

through its officers. ENDORSING the
bosses accomplished some good in Sc
curing greater freedom OF action on
the part OF executive and Legislative
representatives, but republican parts

ampaign will cut the tie that binds so
many voters to the republican party,
and will effect the organization of
vigorous opposition party in Michigan

Freedom from boss control is still
trumpetvd as a great achievement. or
as something yet To be achieved. Elk
element over Mr.. Roosevelt troubles
with the bosses in New York and
Pennsylvania seems to blind the Roose
velt men in Michigan to the real needs
of their own state. Their leaders have
spent their voice thus far in proclaim
ing the righteousness OF fsrcical con
test framed up in Wayne county for the
sake of stealing from Taft the republi
can state convention at Bay City, In
squabbling among themselves, and in
chasing officers which they declared
they did not want They foundered
through state convention of their own
at Jackson with admirable enthusiasm:
and wrote a platform which means
little or nothing as far as the imme-
diate needs of Michigan are concerned.
There is work for these men to do
and IL they intend to do it they will
get to work In earnest in their state
convention next month 1t doesn re-

In the 6rst place this wiring the
governor about law breaking at cleo
