APRIL 27, 190. A WISE COUNSEL. UTAH STATE JOURNAL OGDEN, UTAH. STATE JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, UTAH Senator Eugene Hale, of Maine, has perorated a great public service in counseling caution in the building of costly battleships. is well to pause in the expenditure of our hundreds of millions for an enlarged navy until the conclusion of the war in the Orient, m order that whatever information shall hereby be afforded, may be at our command. A modern battleship is a vast and expensive floating arsenal, endangered by mines and torpedoes in the time of war and dangerous to itself in time of peace. It costs from three million to six million dollars to build, and it lecomes obsolete in a few years if it has the uck to last that long. Four hundred dollars worth of torpedo or twenty dollars worth of dynamite in a submarine mine, can blow it off he face of the waters; and even without the dangers and in time of peace, it can only be kept afloat by the best of seamanship allied with considerable good luck. It is true that in the American-Spanis- h war our navy won victories, the greatest in many respects of all maritime history and in the national joy and glory of that event, he country entered with zeal and confidence upon the building of more ships; but the fate of the Spanish fleets in that controversy is, of itself, sufficient to justify a thoughtful pause. Spain's navy was practically annihilated, and she had neither time nor money with which to renew it. But even if there be no warning in that event, there is further reason for care-inquiry and caution. That naval war was almost entirely conducted above the water line. Since then there has been a momentous of submarine craft. It is to watch he operations of this new agency, that Sena-;o- r Hale counsels a prudent delay in the expected lavish expenditure for floating fighting The people of Utah undoubtedly extend their earnest sympathy to their former sister territories in their struggle for statehood, and their condolences upon the present prospect SETTLING THE DUST ON OPPOSITION PIKE. that if admitted Arizona and New Mexico are to be joined into one commonwealth. 8TARLING8 TO FIGHT TICK8.
