    NEEDS OF OUR NAVY.
CONSTRUCTOR HICHRORN WRITES
ON LESSONS OF THE WAR.
Oregon aud Brooklyn Are tha Moat Kf
fooltvo Types. Foreign Nations Are
< Likely to Model Attar Our Ilest Battle
' Ships and Crulaura.
! The war has taught us what some of
us has already held, that the torpedo
boat Is not the formidable engine of
war which It has been credited with
being. The naval battles of tbe future,
as of the past, will be fought by the
ntort powerful engines of naval war
fare that can be constructed. The
bulile-ablp, in spite of its great cost,
Mill continue to occupy the prominent
place. The torpedo boat will have Its
nses. but they will not be the Import
ant uses of a naval engagement Dur
ing the war Just closed the torpedo
boat was practically of no use ut all.
Just before the outbreak of "hostilities
there was a great scare on account of
ibe flotilla of torpedo-boats and tor
pedo-boat destroyers which was said
to be on Its way across the Atlantic
from the Cape Verde Islands. When
the war actually came, we heard noth
ing wore about them until they were
destroyed. In fact torpedo-boats were
not used by either combatant, except
occasionally for dispatch boats, n duty
to which other craft might be more
advantageously assigned. The Wins
low, It Is true, was sent Into the har
bor of Cardenas to reconnolter, but
this was gunboat service aud not the
work for which a torpedo-boat Is In
tended.
As for the Spanish boats, there was
really nothing to fear from them
Bigsbee made quick work of the Ter
ror off San Juan, although the St. Paul
which he commanded, was exactly the
kind of a vessel, unnrmored, and pre
senting a full side, that torpedoes
might be expected to Inflict damage
on.
The Furor and the Pluton were
amoug the very best and the most
modern of the destroyer class, and yet
the Gloucester, which Is merely a con
verted yacht, defeated them both.
The war has taught us to rely on
our great battle-ships and cruisers
with absolute coulldence. Hitherto
the question has been open to fair dis
cussion In the absence of any practical
illustration of their work in actual
warfare. But now we know what
they can do.
The two vessels which, as shlps-of
war, have given the best - account of
Iheuisolves, without regard to the man
nor In which they were handled, al
though that, of course, was übove crit
icism with all our ships, are the Ore
gon nud Brooklyn, and these are types
of vessels which are likely to become
uiore snd more lu vogue, not only in
the American navy, hut In the navies
of foreign powers. The Brooklyn, for
Instance, with only four Inches of ar
mor on her sides, was far more than
a match for the Vlscaya, with a
twelve-Inch armor licit. This type of
vessel combines speed with efficiency
to a most desirable degree.
As for the Oregon, she combines
great strength of urmanient with n
reasonable amount of speed and coal
carrying capacity In a proportion
which seems to be eminently desira
ble. Battle-ships will be built more
and more on the Oregon plan, with
greater speed If possible, without In
terference with their' effectiveness as
fighting machines.
The navy will have to be supplied
with vessels particularly adapted to
the work for which, at the beginning
of the war, we were compelled to buy
all sortß of vessels at all sorts of
price*. When the war broke out we
were practically without ships suita
ble for auxiliary service. We had uo
patrol-bouts and hardly any dispatch
boats. Bo that steam yachts, tugboats,
and oven oceuu liners had to be bought
or chartered for the use of the navy.
The result was highly gratifying when
It Is considered with what Bort of ma
tertal we had to deal. But In prepar
ing for the possibility of another war.
the United States will have to build
ships especially adapted for this aux
iliary work. Some of the ships which
wore bought for thlß emergency can
tlvublWsx be made to answer the pur
pose permanently very well, but as a
rule the auxiliary fleet ought to be
constructed from specially prepared
plana.
l'erhaps the most Important lesson
which we have learned Is the necessity
of making our fighting ships fireproof.
You remember that at Manila and at
Santiago the Spanish ships took fire
and they suffered as much or more
from tills cause as from the Impact of
our shells.
The war has demonstrated also the
value of the rapid-fire guns and the
eight-inch guns aB compared with the
guns of larger calibre. At Santiago
tlie secondary batteries of the Brook
lyn and the Oregon are reported to
have been more effective than any
other portion of their armament. The
Manila and Santiago battles also have
ahowa that smokeless powder Is an In
valuable part of a ship's equipment.
It Is rather curious that no good
demonstration has been given during
the war of the value of the experimen
tal craft which the government has
been Interested In. The ram Katab
dln has had no opportunity to display
Its merits and the submarine boat has
feeeu Ignored. The Vesuvius, It la true,
had a chance at Santiago, but It does
not appear that the results were at all
decisive as to its surpassing value in
■aval operations.

OUR NEWEST CITIZEN9L —%

Willi Porto Rico and Ouba undei
the protection of the United States
the colored populations of those Is
lands will derive benefits and/recelvi
rights which unjustly wore withheld
from them by the Spaniards. The ne
gro of Cuba, In particular, Is a sndlj
demoralized creature, worse lti habits
and surroundings than was the Afro
American before generous-hearted Lin
coln taught the slnve holders a lessor
In history. The average negro of Port
Rico and Cuba knows little or noth
ing. He la obliged to work hard on
the sugar, coffee and tobacco planta
tions and in the rice fields, bat 1m
knows nothing of the higher class ol
Industries, because nobody bas taught
him. He does not fear Cod, becauss
nobody has shown him the wlsdoai of
doing so. There is nothing absolute!}
new In stating these facts, but there Is
something new In saying that a num
ber of Influential Americans have de
termined to lift the negro of both Is
lands from his lowly surroundings by
teaching him not only the value ol
learning a trade scientifically, but also
the necessity for acquiring sowt
knowledge of the Christian world.
At the head of this benevolent corps
Is William H. Baldwin, Jr., the presi
dent of the Long Island Railroad. Mr.
Baldwin for several years has been
Interested In the good work of the
Tuskegee Normal and Industrial In
stitute of Tuskegee, Ala. This Insti
tution is devoted exclusively to She
advancement of the colored people ol
both sexes and has done much to make
the negro of the South and West In
dependent of others and the creator
of his own finances.
The TuBkegee Institute being recog
nized as the most successful of Its
kind In the world. It has been sug
gested that when the United States
Anally takes hold of Porto Klco and
Cuba some provision be made for the
Immediate education of the negroes of
both Islands. Those who have given
the subject deep thought, and Mr,
Baldwin Is one of these, think that If
the government Import from both Is
lands a certain number of colored peo
ple of each sex, particular attention,
of course, being paid to the more ad
vanced kind, and give them, at the
government's expense, the benefit of
tho various branches of learning at
Tuskegee, they will be able, when
finally graduated from that Institu
tion. to go back to the Islands and In
struct their less favored brethren In
the trades and Industries theyi have
learned.
NEED OF GOOD ROADS ►
Uncle Sam Him K-.111 Much to Aeoemplllk
Alonr This Linn.
Although much has been done to
Improve the condition of the roads on
this side of the Atlantic, there Is sUII
a great deal to be desired. Tlila la
made especially manifest when the
roads here are compared with the
highways In nearly all the European
countries. Were the government of
the United States to expend millions
every year It would still be g long
while before Uncle Sam could rank
his roods in the sh:|o class with thous
of John Bull. In addition to ad
vantages generally recognized a* in
separable from good highways, meth
ods of communication would be cheap
ened and bicycles become an ordinary
means of conveyance In the country
as well aa city. Machines driven by
electricity would gradually come to
supersede the horse. This would re
quire more elevating manual labor la
the manufacture of all the machinery
needed to replace the horse, lu Eng
land, France and Germany the roads
already admit of the use of electrical
vehicles, which are becoming more
and more popular each year. In some
parts of Germany It Is said that farm
produce Is now being transported on
electric wagons. The use of electric
ity as a motive power Is as yet bat
Imperfectly understood and the con
struction of horseless carriages Is still
In Its merest Infancy. Great develop
ments may confidently be expected
here In this line, but American Inge
nuity will be hampered until highways
are constructed over which It will be
feasible for such vehicles to travel.

THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA.
The Greatest Straddler Tet.
j Mr. Swallow's Republican organs
, uic advising tiiul he be supported be
j cause he is a good Republican, a
i believer in high tariff and sound
money.
Mr. Swallow's Populist organs are
urging that he is the right man for
Governor, because he is a good free
silverite and greenbacker, and has
been nominated by the Peoples party.
Mr. Swallow's Prohibitionist organs
contend that there is no issue betore
the people of any serious consequence
other than the liquor issue, that liquor
is the cause of all our political and
governmental travail and that Mr.
Swallow should be chosen the State's
Chief Executive, because he has for
years been obligated to use the func
tions of any office he could reach to
aid in suppressing the sale of liquor.
He has no Democratic organs.
The State has seen political strad
dlers before, but never another cap
able of riding so many steeds and go
ing at the same time in so many dif
ferent directions.
This Republican-Populist-Prohibi
tionist candidate must at times find it
exceedingly difficult to decide just
where he is and what he is at.
It is well enough for a candidate
for Judge to be at the same time the
nominee, of several parties. His be
ing fo may, in fact, insure the election
of a Judge who, on the bench would
know neither party as such. But a
candidate for a legislative or executive
dlfice, nominated in turn by the rep
resentatives of widely diverse princi
ples ond policies, in being faithful to
one, must ignore or sacrifice the others.
Only the most inconsiderate ambition
and reckless disregard of the proprie
ties and responsibilities of official life
could prompt a man to accept such
nominations.
Looking to 1900-
The Republican Machine is striving
hard to keep all Republicans in line
for the Machine ticket, headed by Mr.
Stone. They urge that unless Stone is
elccte J the country will go Democratic
in 1900, and point to the fact that
each time Pennsylvania has elected a
Democratic Governor a Democratic
President followed two years later. If
the fate of the Republican party, as a
national party in 1900, hangs on as
slender a thread as the result in this
state this fall, then its principles can
have but a feeble hold on the sympa
thies of the people, and it ought to go
down in 1900 as well as this year. If
Pennsylvania must continue the prey
of plunderers in order that the nation
may go Republican two years hence,
things are in a sorry plight.
And, by the way, if our Republican
friends are correct —if it be indeed a
truth, that if Pennsylvania goes Demo
cratic this year, the country will go
Democratic in 1900, that fact of itself
ought to be a sufficient inducement to
every Democrat to come to the polls
and vote the straight Democratic
ticket.
Our opponents blunder. In seeking
to help themselves they are helping us.
In striving to keep Republicans
straight they are furnishing the
amplest reasons why Democrats should
remain straight.
What One Bid Another Can Do.
What the Democratic Reform Gov
ernor, Robert E. Pattison, did for the
State, the Democratic Reform Gov
ernor, George A. Jenks, will do, if
elected. Pattison saved the State
millions in money, and his mere pre
sence was a complete checkmate of a
myriad of Machine formulated steals.
When Pattison was last Governor,
1891-94, the revenues of the State
were very large, much larger than
ever before. The total for the four
years was nearly $50,000,000. The
State got, to swell them, $1,684,711
from the United, States, a return of
the direct taxes paid by the State
during the war, and close to a million
of dollars from the sureties of Bard
sley, the defaulting Philadelphia City
Treasurer.
Had a Machine Governor been in
office, this money would have been
stolen or squandered. The schemes
were fully mapped out, but they were
withheld from fear of the veto of
Pattison, to be put through in 1895
or 1897.
Instead, they were used to increase
the school appropriation, for the first
time, to the $5,000,000 annual figure,
to redeem nearly a million and a half
of the State's bonds, and to leave a
real surplus of nearly $4,000,000,
which the Hastings-Quay administra
tion has, in four years, changed into a
$2,000,000 deficit.

Troubles of a
Pastor's Wife
This woman was peculiarly afflicted; physicians could
do nothing to relieve her, yet she was cured in a simple
way. She now sends a message to suffering humanity
which should be helpful.
Probably no other woman ever (uttered
Just as Mrs. Adams did, the wile of Rev.
A. R. Adams, pastor oi the Christian
church at Blatxunsvilfe, 18. Physicians
were battled by her ailment, and for years
she was compelled to live a life of torture.
To-day she is well and the story of her
suffering and recovery will touch a respon
sive cord in the heart of every woman.
44 About six years ago," said Mtts. Adams,
my health began to fail. The first trouble
I noticed was with my stomach j food did
not acres with ma, and my appetite failed
until I could scarcely eat.
" I would begin to bloat before I was
through with a meal, and the food felt like
a stone in my stomach.
"After eating I would have pains in my
stomach with a smothered feeling which
would finally extend into my throat and
chest accompanied by a choking sensation.
"I began to bloat all over and my hands
and feet commenced swelling until I thought
1 had dropsy.
"In a short time I had pain and soreness
in my left side which extended across my
back accompanied by dizziness, and then
followed severs paroxysms of pain extend
ing from the lower part o! my stomach into
the region of my heart.
" During these spells a hard ridge as large
as my arm would appaar in the left side of
my stomach and around the left side.
1 had a feeling of heaviness in my head
and at times could scarcely hold it up or
keep my eyes open, yet when night came
I could not slsep.

To question 2, 44 Yes."
To question 3, 44 Yes."
To question 4, 44 Yes. One of the
most important duties of a State is
the maintenance of the school system."
To question 5, 44 Yes."
Ambrose D. Goldsworthy, Repub
lican, replies: 44 1n answer to the
questions submitted I have no hesi
tancy in giving to each and every
question an emphatic affirmative.
John Eves, Prohibition, answers:
44 To the five questions submitted to
Legislative candidates, I can reply in
the affirmative, I heartily approve

J. Harry Eisenhower, Prohibition,
answers: "To question 1, 44 1 always
have, do now, and will, favor equal

To question 2, 44 1 have, do now,
and will."
To question 3, 44 1 have, do now,
and will."
To question 4, 44 1 will help to

To question 5, 44 1 have always op
posed the multiplication of needless
offices and officials."
