GUARDING HER OWN INTE RESTS
England built a great navy to pro
tect a vast merchant marine. Russia
is increasing her navy that she may
build up a merchant marine. Eng
land, acting with the other maritime
powers of Europe in the treaty of
Paris, bound Russia to the land,
barred her even from the Mediter
ranean, and limited her field of activ
ity on the Baltic. But in the last
generation Russia has put strong
fleets in the Black and Caspian seas;
ha established a station In the Medi
terranean, another in the Red sea; has
made her Baltic fleet one of the finest
in Europe, and has put an effective
squadron in Siberian or Asiatic
waters.
A few years ago Russia had only
three war vessels on the Pacific. She
has now two sea going, coast defense
ircnclads; four first class armored
cruisers, one first-class protected
cruiser, four light cruisers, and a gun
boat flotilla. She has made Vladivo
stock on the Pacific impregnable as a
naval station, with shipyards and dry
dock, and has established herself at
Port Arthur, in China, and as far
south as Constantinople. She is
building eight large battle-ships, six
first-class cruisers, ten second-class
cruisers, twenty torpedo boat des
troyers, and thirty torpedo-boats. She
has projected a strategic ship canal
from the Baltic to the Black sea,
which will be to Russia what the
Nicaragua canal will be to the United
Slates. When this is completed her
fleet on the Caspian will be a part of
the Russian fleet on the Black sea,
with power to force its way into the
Mediterranean.
In spite of British intrigue and op
position Russia is becoming a great
naval power, and is building mer
chant and war vessels with the trade
ot the Pacific in mind. Barred from
the Mediterranean, she has projected
canals from the Black and Caspian
seas to the Baltic, and has construct
ed a railway from St. Petersburg
across Siberia to Vladivostock and
Port Arthur on the Pacific. Her
railway building and her ship build
ing are with ttffe Pacific in mind, just
as within the last quarter of a century
all railway building in the United
and Canada ha? been toward the
Pacific.
Russia is working along lines
marked out by her greatest statesmen.
She is guarding her own interests at
every point and pressing forward
with resistless energy. She has made
thorough preparation to claim and
hold her own, and 5s looking forward
to a great trade with the United
States. She has come to ihc Pacific
With a sharply defined policy, and is
not surrendering any advantages
gained through energy, enterprise,
diplomacy, or war, to her rivals. The
United States should enter the Pacific
like Russia, in her own interest, not
in the interest of her commercial
competitors.
