ANOTHER NAVY TO BE BUILT.
1 Severil times ns many war vessels
as were ever ordered on any one oc
casion before are soon to be in course
cf construction. Contracts are to be
lei in a few days for three first class
battleships, four harbor defense mon
tors and thirty torpedo boats and
destroyers. The building of these
vessels has recently been authorized
by congress. ,
There is a strong probability, too,
Chtft many other vessels will be or--dote&
by the present congress, and
f p:rhrtps in the present session. Kep
reaentatiis-e Pearce, of Missouri, in
troduced a bill a few days ago pro
- widing for the immediate construction
Tjf fi ve first-class cruisers of greater
- displacement, heavier armament :imI
-Jiigber speed than any now in the
-navy, ten torpedo boats, fifteen tor
i pedo boat destroyers and fifteen steel
ijjuoboats, all of these vessels, as well
'as llie cruisers, lo be of a better type
than any now in the possession of the
United Slates. Mr. Pearce's bill
finds favor among most of the coun
try's influential newspapers, and it is
reported that a majority of the mem
bers of the house are impressed with
its wisdom.
The experience of the past four or
five weeks has shown the imperative
necessity for the United States to
immediately and immensely increase
its naval establishment. At the be
ginning of the present year the great
nations ot the world ranked thus in
naval power: England, France,
Russia, Italy, Germany, the United
States, Japan, Austria, Spain Eng
land beading the list. The United
States, which is sixth on the roll here,
very nearly tied Germany for fifth
place. Germany had, in the aggre
gate, a vew more vessels and men
than the United States, though it was
generally believed on both sides of
the Atlantic that the United States
navy was more effective than the
German. The recent purchases and
enlistments put the United States
fourth in general naval strength and
effectiveness, leadjng Italy and Ger
many, and still led by England,
France and Russia, in this order.
t But the United States wi'l not be,
and bould not be, content with the
fourth place in strength of naval es
tablishment. France, which has
shown an unfriendly disposition to
this country in the present war and
many times in the past, is still far
' ahead of the United States. Trne,
France's fighting qualities on the
water have never been of a high or
der. France's fleet rendered some
aid to the United States in the latter
half of the American war of inde

pendence, but the English could al
ways easily beat the French on the
water when the terms were equal.
In the quasi-war of 1798-1801 be
tween the United States and France
on the ocean the United Sta'es was
overwhelmingly victorious. Proba
bly in a vaval war between the
United States and France now, the
United States would be a winner,
notwilbstandiug France's great pre
ponderance in ships and men. But
even this technical superiority should
be overcome.
The great length of the United
States coast line, the value of its
ocean commerce and the probable
extent of its conquests in the present
war demand that its naval strength
be immediately and largely in
creased. NOT A
SPECTACLE,
NESS.
BUT BUSI-
We are coming now to the com
mon-place, practical phase of war,
says the Inter-Ocean. There is noth
ing spectacular in trainloads or ship
loads of troops. There is nothing
picturesque in the transportation of
army -supplies. There is nothing
dramatic in long or short marches of
heavy bodies of infantry. There is
no suggestion of spirit or dash in
cavalry or artillery crowded on cars
or transports. There is nothing to
make the blood leap in long trains of
mule teams and wagons. But iu
these are the sinews of war.
When the soldiers at Tampa march
with their knapsacks and equipments
on board the transports, they are per
forming a more important function
of war than when they were on par
ade or engaged in a sham battle at
Cbickamagua. When a regiment
marches out of camp armed, equipped
with knapsacks and haversacks, and
with each company's wagon carrying
camp equippage and supplies, it is
ready for war in earnest. It is then
an independent, self-supporting en
gine of war, moving like a great mt?
chine under skillful direction to ac
complish a clearly defined purpose.
Such a movement is not inspiring,
like a charge in battle, but it is as
great a factor in solving the prob
lems of n campaign. '
The transportation of troops is
slow business. The landing of
troops with all their belongings is a
matter of days. The equipping of
an army for operations in an enemy's
country is a matter of weeks. Prep
aration, for a decisive campaign is
oftem a matter of months. Genera!
Rosecrnns took command of the army
of the Cumberland in October, 1862.
He began immediately to prepare for
an advance on Bragg at Murfrees
boro. He advanced Dec. 26th, and
fought the battle of Stone River Dec.
31st and Jan. 2d. He then began to
prepare for the next attack, gather
ing horses, wagons, munitions of war,
and supplies. He advanced again in
June lo a new line, and drove the
enemy back without a battle. He
prepared then for a new advance.and
early in September txoved on Chat
tanooga. After the battle of Chick
amauga those who knew nothing of
war wondered at his quietness. He
bad not horses even to move his ar
tillery. ' -
In the forward movement now
contemplated, horses, mules, and
wagons are as important almost as

guns and cartridges. t There is noth
ing more interesting to the practical
soldier than those stages of prepara
tion for a campaign that have no
interest at all for the people at large.
There is nothing that contributes so
much to the efficiency and success of
an army as thoroughness in what to
the people seem commonplace details.
The army is in that stage of prep
aration now.
While tlie people have had their
attention diverted by the schemes of

in the gossip from the camps, hard
working masters of detail have been
tireless in their efforts to organize
those departments that contribute so
little to an army spectacle and with
out which an army is as helpless as a
one-legged man without crutches.
COLD COMFORT FOR SPAIN.
Spanish statesmen evidently have
forgotten much and learned nothing
in the closing decades of tLe century.
They cannot realize that a failing
nation is without friends in Europe.
Untaught by the lessons of recent
history, they are seeking aid in the
European capitals' to save our coun
try from ruin, as if lfvere possible
for Spain to obtain in her distress
that which was refused her before
she had suffered a single defeat.
The gentlemen in power in Mad
rid do not realize apparently that it
has become in recent years a habit of
mind among European statesmen to
look on a defeated nation as every
body's prey. The moment a coun
try has shown its weakness it has
ceased to be an object of sympatbj
among old world governments and
has become one of acquisitive calcu
lation. For instance, at the opening
of the China Japan war political
opinion in Europe was that China,
with her enormous territory and pop
ulation, was ' sure to be victorious.
Consequently European sympathy
was with her. The battle of the
Yalu, however, caused a complete
revulsion of official feeling. From
the daj the news of the Japanese
victory reached European capitals
China had no friends. She - was re
garded as a helpless, body, to be
drawn in the financial interest of
Europe and to be quartered by the
sword of conquest.
The ex per ie noc of Greece was
even, as that of China. At the out
break of the TurkcGrecian war
public men in Europe calculated al
most to a certainty upon the defeat
of the bankrupt and demoralized
Turkey. The heroic days of classic
Greece and the glamour of Ihe Greek
rebellion sufficed to blind even the
shrewdest statesmen of Europe to the
future. Greece was expected to
win, and all the world loved her.
But no sooner had the Athens gov
ernment lost the preliminary battles
of the campaign than gentlemen rep
resenting the Deutsche bank in Ber
lin gathered with cold, unlovely cal
culation to pick the bones in behalf
of the bondholders in the concert of
Europe. ,
The Spanish statesmen who are ap
pealing to the rest of Europe in their
present extremity would do well to
remember these -two modern in-

intercourse of Europe. They would
do welf also to realize that the pres
ent indifference of the powers to
their distress is far preferable to
what they may expect if they invite
too strenuously European action
upon their case. Spain has mount
aios ot trouble on her shoulders, but
they are as molehills compared with
what will oppress her in case she
tempts the insatiable greed of the
European great powers in her hour
I f defeat.
One of the flimsiest lies started by
Spain's government to inspire the
people of that unfortunate land with
hope was the story that the Phillip
pine insurgents, after receiving sup
plies from Admiral Dewey, are now
proposing to resist the American in
vaders. Pride and chivalrj-, it
seems, do not prevent the govern
ment officials of SpaiD, or their rep
resentative abroad, from trifling
with the people they have driven to
desperation.
It is remarkable that a number of
the foreign scholars and scientists in
our American universities are dis
satisfied with this country, its people,
and its customs. How this ' unfor
tunate condition of things may be
remedied is not clear, unless it
should - occur to the discontented
professors that there is nothing to
prevent them from going home.
Bad management keeps more people
in bard circumstances than any other
one cause. To be euccessful one most
look ahead and plan ahead eo that when
a favorable opportunity presents itself
he is ready to take advantage of it. A

The Weakness
of a Woman.
A woman who has suffered eighteen years, who has
been cured after a life of misery and lives again in the
sunshine of happiness, speaks to other women in words
of no uncertain meaning.

KWW
For eighteen vears. Sara E. Bowen. of
Peru, Indiana, carried a burden of pain.
Night and day, without respite, she suf
fered tie most dreadful experience that ever
fell to the lot of woman.
That she did not die is almost beyond
belief.
That she is well to-day is a miracle.
Mrs. Bowen's trouble requires no descrip
tion beyond the symptom, which every
woman will instantly recognize.
In describing them Mrs. Bowen says:
. "For - eighteen years I suffered with
weakness pwuliar to my sex.
"I was a broken down piece of human
ity; a shadow of a woman.
"My brain was tortured until I could re
member but little. I could not sleep or eat
and was reduced in weight to a mere skele
ton. What little I did eat could not be di
gested in my weakened state, and caused
me untold misery
"My skin was muddy my eyes were
heavy. I was dizzy all the time and to

Medicine was recommended and taken in
quantity but it did no good.

of despair. Day by day my trouble grew
worse, and dark indeed was the day before
my deliverance.
" A friend of mine told me about Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People and what
they had accomplished for others in my
condition.
"It was the first glimpse of the sun of hap
piness through the dark clouds of misery.
"I bought a box and took them. Even
then I felt their effect. I bought more and
continued to take them until I was well
and strong.
" They liberated me from the most terrible
bonds that ever tortured a woman. They
brought me new life when death was
welcome.
I recommend them to my friends, and I
do not hesitate to say to every suffering
woman in the world that Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills will cure her."

are a specific for all forms of weakness.
