Iluinig this pcliod nl sleel cla I and MBMllj MMa4 men-ol -war Ihe iHr i-.il n noodeu ship lieiiij- nl nnv service in naial warlare could hardly emanate Innu a man who is at once sane and sincere. Senator Vest, iu a splendid nt lull! exposing BBMBMMtl the iniscrsble hipoctiey, mendacity and dithonraty ol the clement that Is urging the pauage u tbe measure, hoids ihe aiuiliary idea up tn lidicule. He a) "Wht Mfl o niuality could there j be between a Roodeu ship itupruvlsed 1MB a cruiser tunning twenty-one; knots an hour and a teel-clad cruiser ruiininx t .vcnty-tliicc kuott an hour. . with guns carrying Irom eight lo j twelve mile? lsewey, at Manila, stood off with hi. ship two and one-1 hall mile and MMBMMl the Spanish fieri to piece like an eggshell ilruek by a thunderbolt and did not lose a man. Now imagine the St l'.iul. or ihe St LbMB, or Ihe Nrla, or the New York encouuleriug Bl a distance ol : even ten mile Ihe steel clad cruitrr of 11 foreign nation, built alter the ap proved fashion iu which those vessels are now constructed. Why they are MM 111 even for lrausmrl. The naval warfare of the world baa been com pletely changed." The ruiiliary plaa was never meant lor service among men ol intelligence. Il it meant lo bear the tame relation to pirate raid upon the treasury that tho manilcsl destiny,'' "who will pull down tlic flag" lake bore to the imperialiatlc istue. it was meant lo gire it advocate au opportunity to rite above the sordid meanness ol the measure and harp upon a more ele vated UMMB. liut it will fail of lit purpose. The people may cloe ibeir eye aud prattle the gibberish of the nursery while a loreign nation i being robbed of its independence, bul when Ihe government attempts to loot the many in Ibe interest of subsidized few they become rustoreand rrelieal The Kcpublteana, ueverlhaieaa, claim lhat thi legislative pettereion shall pan during the neal etlon.
