But twenty pounds of fish a year is by
10 means the allotment. You could have
several times that much more if you

my more is what caused the bureau of

SEES CHANCE IN 1916.
Former President Taft Tells Wiscon
sins of Republican Prospects.
MADISON, Wis., May x.?William H.
Taft addressed stalwart republicans
j who gathered last night from various
parts of the stale to hear him make his |
first political speech since the cam
paign of 1JM2.
"I believe there is a favorable pros
pect of republican success at the polls!
in 1916," he said. "I believe it because
the business men throughout the coun- |
try are roused to a necessity of stay- )
ing statutory action opposed to the
continued investment of capital.
"If we hold to the principles of the j
republican party, and a sound republi- I
can leads us, we shall go back into)
power and then can do things that will
put the country back on a sound busi
ness basis."
MAKES FURTHER REPLY
TO SECRETARY DANIELS
Bepresentative Gardner Writes For
mer President Taft on General
Naval Situation.
In a letter to former President Taft,
a further reply to Secretary Daniels on
the general naval situation, is made by
Representative A. P. Gardner of Massa
chusetts. The letter was mailed by Rep
resentative Gardner yesterday, and as
serts that quality and team play are what
count in navai guns, not necessarily
quantity and size
In the course of his letter Representa
tive Gardner says:
"I am glad to be able to agree with
Secretary Daniels that the broadside
of the Pennsylvania, with its twelve
fourteen-inch guns, is mightier than
the broadside of the British dread
naught Queen Elizabeth, with her bat
tery of eight fifteen-inch guns; and
this in spite of the fact that the Brit
ish projectile is more than 500 pounds
heavier than ours. The British pro
jectile weighs 1,92ft pounds; ours
weipLhs 1,40ft pounds.
Why the Pennsylvania P
"But why does the Secretary pick out
the Pennsylvania, which will not be
complete till next year, to compare
with a vessel now bombarding tl^je
Dardanelles forts? Why not take the
New York or the Texas as the standard
of comparison? They are the only two
ships in commission in tTie I'nited
States Navy which carry guns higeer
than twelve inches in diameter. Each
of these ships has a battery of only
ten fourteen-inch guns. In other
words, the weight of their broadsides
is 14,00ft pounds, as against a broad
side from the Queen Elizabeth weigh
ing 15,3*?0 pounds.
"Unless a man is willfully blind, the ex
planation of the whole gun question is
perfectly plain. The British admiralty
prefers dreadnaughts with a little less
tonnage and a little greater speed than
ours. Furthermore, the British admiralty
prefers a battery of a lesser number of
fifteen-inch guns, while we prefer a bat
tery of a greater number of fourteen
inch guns. That is all there is to it.
But there is a deal of humbug going on
about these naval guns. It is not as if
they were land guns. On land you can
build guns of unlimited size and number.
On shipboard what you gain in one direc
tion you must cut down in another.
When Team Play Counts.
"In a naval battle an^inch or two in
the diameter of the guns is not likely to
make so much difference as a little better
team play in the working of the guns.
In fact, last winter there was testimony
before the committee on naval affairs in
Washington to the effect that some people
thought we made a mistake in adopting
a foureen-inch naval gun instead of u
twelve-inch naval gun.
"As a matter of fact. 1 have not
heard of any one turning up his nose
either at the thirteen-and-one-half
inch gun or at the fourteen-inch gun
or at the fifteen-inch gun. Our naval
guns would be all right ' if we had
enough of them and enough of the
right sort of ships on which to mount
them. Unfortunately, eighty of our
big guns are mounted on pre-dread
naughts. a type of battleship about as
much up-to-date as a two-cylinder au
tomobile. Likewise, sixteen other of
our big guns are mounted on the two
I near-dreadnaughts. Michigan and South
Carolina, which were relegated, March
3, 1915, to the second line of battle
| ships."

War on Disease.
From the ?*hlrag?> Journal.
line of the most interesting report.4
made to the city council last night waj
that of an institution not yet tw<
months old?the municipal tuberculosis
sanatorium?whicl% opened its doon
March of this year.
Much has been written of the ma
terial side of this institution, of tin
nearly 1.000 beds which it will have, ol
its children's ward, of the maternitj
ward to care for mothers afflicted wit!
tuberculosis. In the judgment of th?
Journal, however, these concrete facts
important though they be. are bui
straws in the wind of a city's purpose
The municipal sanatorium shows thai
the second city of the United States hai
opened official war on one of the great
est enemies of the human race. That
is the big thing. It is a war conducted
with sleeping porches, rather thai
trenches; with fresh air, not with as
phyxiating gas. The sanatorium wil
do much more than merely help sicfc
men and women back to health. T1
will be an active force to prevent sick
I ness. It will be an official center, fron
which health knowledge and healtl
habits will radiate to the entire popu
lation.
If the scientific thoroughness, per
fect discipline and utter devotion now
being displayed in the war in Europe
could be applied to the war on dis
ease tuberculosis could be banished ir
a generation. The municipal sanato
rium is one of the many signs that
such a crusade may be inaugurated ir
the near future.
One of the Penalties.
From ?li?> Philadelphia Ledger.
A state that puts the children in the
mills has to keep on building hospitals
and institutions to shelter the results.

In Memoriam.
ROBINSON Sad but sweet i* the memory of
our darling arnndda lighter. PHOEBE G.
ROBINSON, who entered the haven of rest
two years ago today. May s. 1913.
Dear Phoebe has gone with the angels.
They came at the cloae of the day.
And whiapered their l^autifnl stories
To lure her from eartliland away.
Oh. tearful and sad was our i?artine.
When shadows crept over the day.
And closed her brown eyes to our pleading*
And darkened our desolate way.
But there was rejoicing in heaven.
And beautiful sounds in the ?ir.
When Phoebe went up with the angela.
Away from our sorrow and care.
BY MAMMY AND DADDY.
Dear Phoels . I often think of you.
When I am all alone.
For memory is the only thine
That grief ran call its own.
