COLONEL BALL IS GAINING.

Now that the novelty is wearing
away, the various elements of the
present campaign are slipping back
into their normal positions.
During the past few days a great
reaction seems to have set in, much
to the encouragement OF the Ball
supporters.
The boomerangs are beginning to
rebound, and the SANDERS, like
chickens, are coming home to roost
Ten days ago and there was little
to be heard but the booming voice
of Ferguson reyilng his opponent,
punctuated here and there by sta
cato prediction OF his exeelleney, the
governor.

The play WAS too strenuous to be

So long as the noise lasted people

ing with the question of the recent
successes of the German navy.s notably
or the coast OF chile, warns its. read
ers against forming an exaggerated
estimate of the Importance of such
successes. .w.. .r 1924.
The British navy, it points out, is
but little weaker than at the begin
ming of the war. The only real loss
inflicted was in the Pacific and this
loss could be repaired without diff
Guilty. The exploits of the Emden and
other German cruisers had. it was
true, caused financial loss to certain
people in England, but could not di-
rectly or immediately influence the
course of the war.
Proceeding, the Deutsche Tageszei-
tung says that Germany greatly val
ues the successes Of the German sub
marines which demonstrated the ex-
cellence of German material, the abil-
ity of German sailors and the power
of the young German navy to obtain
what at any rate amounted to moral
victory in these successful engage
ments over the greatest sea power.
Germans, however, it adds. would
do well to remember that the naval
strength of England remains practie-
ally unweakened and that she can de-
liver battle whenever she likes.
