European Naval Situation

The avOwed and executed purpose
of Germany with regard to the force
of her navy and the rivalry between
Italy and Austria inSuring a similar,
If smaller, development in the Eastern
Mediterranean constitute the main
clements Of tho contemporary naval
situation as aVerSc to Great Britain.
That the Near East will continue
for a generation the Undertook which
it has been for a half-century past is
more than ever likely from the events
of the last twelvemonth.
If a general war should grow out Of
the present critical situation, how
certainly can the British navy secure
Egypt and Suez?
Such security, if maintained, would
imply almost inevitably power to act
extensively also in neighboring wa
tiers. If similar conditions were to
arise five years hence, how would the
situation be affected by probable
changes in the variable factor of the
several naval fOTCes-a matter of pre-
diction?
When in England last autumn | was
told that German naval officer had
predicted some years before that Ger
man naval increase would compel
Great Britain to abandon the Mediter-
ranean Whether abandonment has
actually occurred may be a matter Of
argument, dependent upon the appre-
citation placed by any adequate author
ity upon the movement or rediStTibu-
ton Of the British navy which has
recently been made That there has
been relative abandonment seems in
Gisputable when measured by the con-
djIions of the past two centuries. But
circumstances alter cases; such aban-
Comment has occurred more than once,
though not, believe, in time OF
peace.
Whether France alone, formerly the

support of Great Britain can maintain
the control of trade security and mill
tary effectiveness throughout the sea
is the point in question. 1t will not be
sufficient to secure the western half.
The British empire needs the whole
sea for imperial Fmoyement of COM
merce and for imperial naval effective

of fleets, essential to the existence Of

from Omaha and remained here until
Thursday evening, when he went to Chi

of the four printing pressment's unions
was held at Painters Union hall, 1856
Champa street. at which President Har-
ry Dain of Pressmen's Union No. 40
presided. President Berry said his visit
to Denver was to extend the olive
branch and let the boys know he was
their friend. At the recent election the
local pressmen voted almost solidly
against Berry and for O'Hare. the Bos-
ton candidate. Berry was elected. and
he wants the four Denver unions to CO.
operate with him in the upbuilding OF
the organization, of which he has been
the executive for eight years. Good
feeling was expressed by the members
and the visit of the national president
has resulted in a better understanding
all around.
President Berry testified before the
National Industrial Commission at
Washington last week. where he and
State Labor Commissioner James NJ.
Lynch OF New York represented the
printing trades Asked by The Bulletin
about his candidacy for Governor OF
Tennessee, Berry replied that he had
been too busy lately travelling over the
country for the pressmen TO give the
subject much consideration. said about
30 daily and weekly papers in that state
lad come out editorially for his eandi-
dacy, and if he found the chances prom
i-ing when he returned home within
two weeks probabilities were that he
would enter the race. While in this citv
