and O'Clock Monday evening, Oct 23rd,
when Miss kittredge was out and the

Admiral William V. Pratt of Belfast,
aow connected with Naval affairs in
W ashington, ID. c., in Navy day adj
iress before the Portland Rotary club
Friday said that no class of men realize
more clearly the relations existing be-
.ween sea power and world power, or
ire more willing to subordinate purely
naval aims to the country's wishes, than

'orce to fall below the ratios fixed and to
as did its stately clipper
ships, than can a great city afford to give
I'D its guardians of the law"
