Now that we want some big ships
built right away Sec. Daniels is in
formed that the ship builders cannot
construct them in less than two
years. The big ship builders are
anxious to do their best for the gov
eminent but it takes time to con-
struct these large vessels. The gov
eminent is asking for the immediate
construction of five battle cruisers
and. three monster dreadnaughts.
More than half of these were au-
thorized two years ago but Sec. Dan
iels has been trying to play sharp
with the result that he has no ships in
the hour of need and must pay at
least % per cent more for these ships
than they would have cost at the time
they were authorized. This is a case
of just wasteful watching.

The. sermon by Rev. G. A. Martin at
Grace Methodist church Sunday has a
true American ring, and we are con-
fident it must have received hearty
response from the congregation. To
stand by the President in. every eff
fort he makes to protect American
citizens, to drop all hyphenates and
be just an American, and to assert our
rights and refusal to submit to fur
Their outrages is the highest duty be-
fore the people at present.
If the report that certain men in
Richford placed Thomas Jewett of
Montgomery. who was struck and kill
ed by a Central Vermont train a short
time later, in his sleigh too drunk to
walk and started him off alone into a
winter night, is true, it would seem
as though. an investigation is neces-
sary. This report makes it look as
though someone is guilty of at least
manslaughter.
The news from Washington that the
Senate will adopt the cloture rule, will
pass the armed neutrality bill and
the President will nominate the men
at the head of the list. In that case
it will be easy to name st. Jol1nsbury's
next postmaster. It is possible, how
ever, the examinations will be framed
to promote political friends rather
than the men who really know how to
conduct the postal business.
