Moses E. Clapp, United States sen- ator, will in all probability seek re- election in 1916, and that he will meet with opposition there is little doubt. Already the -names of like- ly aspirants for the position, one of the most honorable within the gift of the state’s voters, have been men- tioned, one of the most often heard being that of George T. Simpson, formerly attorney general of Minne- sota, and now a practicing attorney in Minneapolis. Continual approval is being given the three judges of this judicial dis- trict because of the naming of a ditch referee, and the selection of O. L. Dent for the position has al- ready proved to have been a splendid choice. Mr. Dent is a thorough en- gineer and knows the conditions of this section well. He realizes the vastness and importance of the en- terprise under his supervision and as a consequence the work on ju- dicial ditches in this district is much more complete than ever before, The Steel Armada. In 1588 the greatest war fleet that ‘had ever assembled sailed from Spain to conquer England. Therc were 140 ships manned by nearly 30,000 men. They moved forward in a crescent seven miles from tip to tip, with the tall galleon of the Admiral, the Duke of Sidonia Me- dina, in the center. Every school boy knows the story of that quest. The names of Drake, Hawkins and Frobisher, who commanded the Eng- ¢ Msh fleet, are household: words to this day. Generation after genera- tion has been thrilled by the histor- ian’s picture of that running fight in the English channel and the North sea, when the little English sailing craft hung about the un- wieldy galleons like wasps, har- rassing them day after day; when burning ships were sent into the an- chored armada at midnight, strik- ing terror to the Spanish sailors’ hearts and crashing their vessels to- gether in confusion; when a great storm burst upon the beaten fleet and strewed the coasts of Scotland, Norway and Ireland with its wreck- age and the bodies of twenty thous- and men. Future history may tell similar tales of the great British armada which siet sail just the other day from the English dockyard at Portland, under sealed orders to find and destroy the German fleet. In comparison with this flotilla the fa- mous Spanish armada was but a string of rowboats on a pleasure pond. No such tremendous fighting power has ever been assembled at sea. The Spanish galleons were of wood; these are of steel. The huge Spanish flagship was of 1,300 tons; the Iron Duke, the flagship of Ad- miral Sir Callaghan, is of 25,000. There are 29 steel battleships with guns that can sink an enemy ibe- yond the horizon. There are four battle cruisers almost as formidable, eight armored cruisers, four lighter cruisers, and a great number of de- stroyers, torpedo boats and supmar- ines. It is almost precigely the same fleet that King George review- ed -recently at Spithead, when there were gathered in the harbor more than 200 vessels whose officers and men numbered 70,000. When they passed before the king there were 22 solid miles of ships, with cheering crews. Above them in flow, in or- derly “squadrons, the scouting aero- planest which now regularly accom- | pany such a ship. The royal salutes shook -the sea. At night the fleet was illuminated, and powerful searchlights clashed fantastically as they pierced the air and played against the clouds. The least .of those ships could have demolished the entire: armada of Philip II. One gun from one dreadnought could have reduced any fortress in exist- enee when England’s “wooden walls,” aided by Providence, saved her“from invasion. The clash .of this steel armada with the German fleet, if the enemies meet in the open sea with their full complement, +should be the climax of all sea war- fare. How it would end 1is,~ of course, uncertain. Great Britian as 8 naval power far outclasses -Ger- many, but this fleet does not repre- sent Britian’s full strength. If'Ger- many assembles all her naval for- ces, while still outclassed in tonnage | and guns she would not be at such a dlsadvantage but that strategy and mccurate firing might turn the vie- tory. If these great fleets meet, and fight it out decisively, that bai- tle may determine the issue of this greatest of all wars. It may de- termine whether Britannia is still to rule the waves, with power to starve Germany by cutting off her food supply while Russia and France crush her armies, or whether Ger- many will gain the mastery of ses at one stroke, and thereby make it possibie to starve Britian into sub- jecticn and break her power for- ever.
