No one now disputes the import once of the navy in the war with Spain, says the Inter Ocean., Jt is clear that a war with any foreign power must be mainly a war an the sea. Very few will deny that if congress ten years ago had shown as muoli Interest in the navy as the present congress there, would have been no war with Spain. A navy ad equate to the demunds made upon us would have prevented war. Hurried preparation for war is al ways expensive. Wo are spending now about n million dollars a day to put our army and navy on a war footing. This is at the rate of 300, 000,000 n year. If congress in the iMt decade bad added 10,000,000 ft year to our naval expenditures, there would be bo heavy expenditure now, twcitute there would be no war. When the Maine was destroyed the necessity for n stronger navy was so urgent that we purchased warships wherever they could be bought. A congress, that would have haggled over ordinary naval expenditures 111 ' time of pence put .f0,000,000 at the i order ofthe president without a mur I imir of protest or objection. The j money was well spent and the navy was considerably strengthened, but j it would have been more economical had we years ago, in anticipation of the emergency, built the needed ships ourselves. Tho United Mates 'lias a sea coast of over .000 miles in length, or, rather two lines of sea coast so sit uated that a vessel ordered from one to the other must make a voyage of 10,000 miles. The folly of n nation with such coast lines, and with such commanding position among the cieat powers of the world, in being unprepared for a crisis is now clear to every one. If .our navy was what it ought to be, we would be able to destroy Spain's entire navy as Commodore Dewej destroy ed the Spanish fleet on the Pacific. We could protect our Atltntic and Pacific coasts, blockade Cuba and Porto Rico, capture Havana, and at the same time crush Spain's two At lantic squadrons, even if our war ships were compelled to seek the enemy at Cadiz. To make one strong fleet in Cuban waters we have had to call the Ore gon from the Pacific, and to concen trate the two Atlantic squadrons. While maneuvering to capture the Spanish fleet Admiral Sampson must guard our own coast and keep up the blockade of Cuba. If he can capture the Spanish warships Spain will be crippled almost to helpless ness. If the Spanish fleet .escapes, and the war 'continues for a 3ear, we will grow stronger, as our vessels now in course .of construction are completed. The Pnnaeton will soon be road', and the cruisers Chicago, Atlanta and Philadelphia will be ready next fall. A little j later the great battleships, the Kear sarge and Kentucky, will re-enforce our fleets, and next year the Alaba-' ma will come into the field. The very fact that in this emer enoj the navy has done so much, and is doing so well, emphasizes the folly of the past. The fact that the navy and the army are rising to the occasion, and will make success sure, must not blind us to the mis takes that made war possible.
