policy of making our navy so great
that it shall terrify other natioi.s will
simply result in promoting a rivalry
that will continue until it reaches the
limit ot the ability of the people to
bear it. I would propose what I con­
sider a better plan. 1 would suggest,
instead of building the biggest navy,
that we make our government the
best on earth, and, instead of having
our flag atl< at everywhere, let it stand
for something wherever it floats. Let
our flag stand for justice between man
aud man,auil between nation and nation
Let that become known everywhere,
and if any king shall attempt to assail
our land, his own oppressed people
would rise and cry out: “Don’’, ttnich
that flag; it stands for our rights.”
Possibly our flag would then not be so
much feared, but it would bo loved the
world around, and this would be great­
er glory to tho flag than through any
mereshort-sighted policy.”
