Britain is too poor to build them. to accept this explanation. England will never be too poor to build battleships, if in her opinion more battleships are needed to render her navy supreme. The poverty talk is only a half truth. The whole truth is that Great Brit ain's naval experts have concluded of the submarine and seaplane, it is the part of wisdom to conceit tiate uiion these weapons of naval warfare, and delay battleship con btruction until the lessons of the late war are more clearly known. Of course, the financial stringency is a factor in this determi nation, but it is only a minor factor. The fundamental cause is based upon the belief that the next war will be fought largely under the sea and above it. An article by an English newspaper man brought to our attention, throws an illuminating sidelight upon this situation. Although bat tleship partians are found in England, the strongest judgments just now are all in the other direction. As one naval expert says: "The (wo determining factors in naval warfare are surprise and invisibility. The sea plane and U-boat promise to monopolize these factors. The U-boat of the future will be a dreadnaught submersible. The sea plane of the future will virtually be a battery of heavy ordnance in the air. The battleship squadron may remain the base, but only the base. The decisive battle will be fought, not on the water, but below and above it. The Power in control of the air, the sea." Of course, unanimity of opinion sufficient evidence available to any layman- to justify a program of delay in battleship construction on these grounds. That Great Brit ain, whoso existence absolutely depends upon control of the sea, should adopt this policy, is the strongest possible evidence that the pol icy is sound. The time would seem to bo ripe for the United States to stop construction on 'battleships, and either save funds involved, or divert them to development of sea It is, perhaps, not so inconsistent God's great characters," is not qualified to sit in the United States senate from Oregon. The reflection course, nor upon Oregon, but upon CONTENTMENT. WHEN sets the good old shining sun, thus winding up an other day, if I have left some chore undone, I do not fell serene and gay. Beaneitth my figtree I recline and try to read some helpful tract, but in this old bald dome of mine there bobs up one disturbing fact. I did not fix the kitchen roof, which lets in nineteen kinds of rain; and so contentment keeps aloof, and all my thoughts are tinged with pain. I cannot read "The Cloven IToof," or other novels, good or flat; I did not fix Ihe'lealcing roof; and I can only think of that. The almanac has jest and spoof, o'er which I ought to roundly laugh ; but I neglected that old roof, ami conscience is n bitter gaff. AVhcn all my duties are perform ed according to the rules of Iloyle, my heart with cestacy is warmed, the rich reward of honest toil. With duty done one can, in truth, the evening hours in peace employ, and I can read of Nick, the Sleuth, without n cloud upon my joy. There may be men who do not care what they have done or left undone, when from the restful easy chair they watch the setting of the sun. But peace won't camp upon my brow if I recall, at close of day, that I hnvo failed to groom the cow, or give the old blue goose her hay. And I am glad I'm fashioned thus, though I may miss a lot of fun; I don't admire the careless cuss who recks iio hoot for tasks undone. . BILL PROPOSED TO ALLOW HOMEi PIEUMK, S. D.

Doth bodies -.-wero enclosed in leaden caskets filled with rum and hermetically sealed before being placed into the vault, which was built on the top of tho ground. Although tho ravages of the ele ments had obliterated tho brick walls of the vault the caskets were found to be in a perfect state of preservation.
