The Worlds Greatest Sea FIGHT

During the summer two maritime
events of utmost importance drew
universal attention to the North Sea.
One was the colossal clash OF the
worlds matchless sea forces, off the
coast Of Jutland; the other. the loss
of the battle cruiser Hampshire, west
Of the Orkneys, with Lord Kitchener
and his staff aboard.
Neutrals are not so much concerned
with the question Of the victor as
with the significant lessons unfolded
by the engagement of the British
grand fleet and the German high seas
fleet. For the first time modern nay.
al engines were pitted against each
other in terrific death struggle, the
supreme sea fight of the ages. The
massive dreadnaught, the swift cruis-
err and the mosquito like destroyer
were brought into play, and their ac-
tual capabilities given the initial, tell.
ing test. Likewise the submarine and
air craft assumed roles which rrevi.
ously they had little more than re-
hearsed.
AS whole, the battle has vindicat-
ed the contentious consistently voiced
by our general board in its annual re.
concentrations to the secretary of
the navy. 1t has proved the superior
ity OF the heavily armored dread
naught; the tactical value OF the crui.
ser, and also the latter's utter inabii'
ity to face big guns; the usefulness
of the agile destroyer for striking
quick. telling blows even in daylight,
and the ability of big battleships to
resist torpedo attacks. 1t has con
vincingly disclosed the fallacy Of
| placing reliance in any one type Of
vessel to the extent of ignoring 9TH
ers, and has shattered the hasty as
sumption, expressed early in the war.
that the submarine sounds the death
snell of the dreadnaught.
Regardless OF the contentious Of
either side, the losses appear to have
been about as great in one case as in
the other. The points of real signif-

Points to After War Danger in

publican Nominee Hughes swung
westward thru West Virginia today
with his Indictment of the Democratic
policies. He was scheduled for four
speeches, at Clarksburg, Parkersburg.
Huntington and Charleston. In each
of these he planned to direct the fire
of his. criticism mainly against the
Democratic failure to live up to the
pledge of the 1912 platform promis-
ing protection of American lives
abroad.
tically assailed the administration for
his handling of the Mexican problem
and solemnly warned his auditors of
the evil days he said were bound to
come If, after peace among the war
ring European nations had been ar
ranged, the United States was forced
to compete in world commerce under
the Underwood tariff bill.
What? He Uses Slang.
Hughes voice was strong and clear
probably in the best shape it has
been since he started to come back"
in August. Today for the first time
since he assumed the responsibilities
of a presidential candidate he began
to develop real orators gestures and to
pull little tricks of speaking of which
Theodore Roosevelt would be proud.
He hauled out to view here today a
first class uppercut swing in driving
home his pungent criticism of the
Adamson eight hour bill. He mixed
in a little slang-about coming back
and what do you know about that?''
in his speeches, all of which struck
his audience here favorably.
What was more to the point the G.
o. P. candidate has developed a very
keen sense of publicity now. Until
the present trip no one on his train
could make the nominee see the neces-
sity of preparing his speeches in ad-
vance. But since he left New York
Monday, the governor has found time
to dictate ahead of time, the main
points in his principal addresses. en-
abling the correspondents to get his
punchy stuff into print earlier.
Mrs. Hughes was back with her
husband after brief visit to her home
in Washington. She stood on the
stage with him today, her hands full
of picture postcards and buttons she
distributed between handshakes.
