To rule by love than fear:
Speak gently! let not harsh words mar
Tho good wo might do here.
Speak gently! love doth whisper low
The vows that true hearts bind;
And gently Friendship's acccnla flow,
Affection's voice Is kind.
Speak gently to the little child;
lis love be sure to gain;
Teach In It accents soft and mild;

II Objects to th Artlon That Ih
Massachusetts Broke All Battle
ship Spaed Record.
New York Herald.
Although a constant reader and d
mlrer of four great paper, I must eon
fee to a fllg of mild stupef action on
reading- th remarkable account of th
speed trials of the Massachusetts pub
lished In your columns of April M.
In this account ah Is credited with an
average apeed of I l knots, which ah
appears to hav maintained for a period
of aoma three hours and fifty minutes
under forced draught and most favorable
condition of wind and weather.
Thla reault la undoubtedly a credit to
Mesara. Cramp, whose experience In
building Urge battleships Is naturally
limited, but I can hardly regard th com
ments un the performance, aa set forth
In your columns, ss equally rrnlltable to
the veracity of your admirable Journal.
Vou credit the Maeaachuaaita with hav
ing "broken all records." with being
"the fuaiest of all armored ahlps In th
world." with "aweeplng the aeus In olnt
of apeed." and so on ad lib.. whr..a In
reality her ficrformanc la conaldrahly
lielow Ibe average of modern battleships
of her class.
In i'purl of this atiitrment I beg to
driiw your attention to a few rraulta,
eelcrtcd at random, of ai-i male of
Hrlilah tintlleahlpa during the Inst few
yrura. And I may add th.il th ilrltlah
admiralty cundllluna for audi trUI ar
notoriously fur more rlgoruua and ud
verae lo the contractora lhan those of
the I'nltiil Htutea naval board.

This ahlp has seven sisters, all of
which have achieved practically similar
speed.
Th above rraulta, which speak for
themselves, are extracted from the of
ficial records and have all been pub
lished In the London Times and other
leading Journals. And I tentur to sub
mil that their accuracy la ns little to be
doubled aa la the recent performance of
the Massachusetts, In spit ol your some
what remarkable editorial explanation
that "In crediting th Massachusetts
with being Ih fasteat battleship afloat
the Herald Ignore the claim of foreign
shipbuilders for armored craft of their
construction, because th siieeds assigned
to the foreign veaael ar either wholly
theoretical or have been mad for a short
run only, usually on mile."
Sir, dors not this savor of ' abusing the
plaintiff's attorney." and Is It not calcu
lated to lead Ihe casual reader lo adopt
the unwilling conclusion that ths great
est of Amerlcsn newspapers Is for once
allowing Its patriotic seal to outrun Its
veracity?
Though an Englishman. I would be the
last to deny the unrivalled proficiency of
the Vnlled States In "breaking all rec
ords," but may not that or Ananias be
allowed to aland ror the present?
ARTHl'R H. I.EE. Captain R. A.
Kingston. Ont.. April T7. IS.
Captain l-ee asks ihe publication of the
foregoing letter, "trusting." he says, "In
the Herald's well-known reputation for
fairness." The captain's amusing refer
ence to Ananias would alone be enough
to entitle him to a hearing, because,
since he, of course, assumes that his
statement are correct. It Is a very clever
riposte coming from an Engllshmaa
Unfortunately for the captain, however,
he Is a landsman, with a landsman's
limited acquaintance with the nice feat
ures of things nautical.
The speeds assigned to the Hrltlsh bat
tleships In the captain's letter were
taken from an Instrument known as a
patent log-, device which, at high speed,
always registers much more than the
actual rate through the water.
Thus on the trial of the 1'nlted 8tates
str.imrr Columbia the patent log recorded
for a part or her run a speed of about
twenty-five knots.
it would be Interesting to know where
in the Hrltlsh admiralty's conditions for
speed trials are "more rigorous and
more adverse to the contractors than
those of the 1'nlted 8tates naval board."
The course over which the Massachu
setts was run was carefully Inld out
and accurately measured by trlangula
lloa There were six vessels anchored
along this course to observe the strength
of the tide. If Captain Lee knows any
more rigorous rule by which a ship's
sliced can be determined he probably has
a monopoly of the knowledge.
If the Hrltlsh battleships have ever
been run over a measured distance, be
yond a very short one, to test their
speed, the fact has been kept from the
public. The patent log record Is use
less. Two patent logs, towing astern
of the same ship at the same time, will
vary as much as a knot In the speed j
they register, but each of them will show
a fiir greater speed than the ship Is mak-
In spite of that allusion to Ananias,
tho Herald must still credit the Massa
chusetts as holding the speed record for
first-class battleships.
