As assistant secretary of the na y, Roosevelt set himself diligently to the task of repairing our navy, improving its marksmanship and in every way fitting it for the sea war which he saw was Inevitable with Spain because of that countrys oppression of Cuba. On Saturday, February 25, 3898, he happened to be acting secretary of the navy and as such sent a cablegram which was destined to make history. It was addressed to Admiral George Dewey and read as follows: "DEWEY the Order Hongkong. to the Monocacy, except sqtadrou, Hongkong. Keep full of coal. In the event ol declaration of war, Spain, your duty will be to see that the Spanish squadron docs not leave the Asiatic coast and then offensive operations in the Philippine Islands. Keep until further orders. Olympia ROOSEVELT. Two month's later war was declared, and Dewey, fully prepared, slipped out of f or.gkong jnd smashed the Spanish fleet at Manila ba. On that May morning the United States became a nation of importance and began its career as one of the great naval powers of the earth. Its prestige as such further increased when Theodore Roosevelt became President and in that position steadfastly advanced a sound naval policy for the United States. Roosevelts part in the development of our navj is but little known to most Americans as compared to other more spectacular eveuts tn his strenuous career. So Navy day is a day for r calling his services in that respect and for honoring- him for them just as It is a day for recalling the deeds of other men who made rohn Paul Jones, Oliver our nay Hazard Perry, David Farragut and George Dewey.

This vessel was renamed the Alfred and later became the flagship of the American fleet Later when more ships were rdded to the patriot navy, Barry was commissioned a captain and placed in command ot the brig Lexington. His first achievement in battle was the capture of the British tender, Edward, on April 17, 1776, In reality this was a small prize, for the Lexington was a much larger ship than the Edward, but the victory lives In history because the Edward was the first ship ever captured by a commissioned officer of the American navy. The firsr American to hold the title of commodore was Esek Hopkins, of he first American fleet which was assembled and manned -- in December, 1775. Hopkins individual record as a fighter was not a particularly brilliant one and he was finally dismissed from the service. There was no question of his courage, however, and even if he did not add anything to the record of American naval heroism, his name Is worthy of remembrance because he was our first high naval officer. His shortcomings were more than made up for by some of his subordinates, for among them were such men as Capt. Abraham Whipple, Capt. Nicholas Biddle and a young lieutenant named John Paul Jones. The War of 1812 bred a famous group of American sea fighters. Not the least illustrious of this group was David Porter. As a boy Porter had been twice Impressed in the British navy, and both times made good his escape; he never outgrew the bitterness toward England engendered by these experiences. He had shipped as a midshipman on the Constellation and distinguished himself in the fight with the French Insurgente; he was a lieutenant on the Philadelphia when it grounded off Tripoli, and suffered over a years Imprisonment there. Given command of the frigate Essex in lSii, Porter captnred the first British war vessel, harried British commerce from the Caribbean to Cape Horn and from Cape Horn to the Galapagos, r.ook Innumerable prizes, d Jo3m &nd made the Stars and Stripes respected throughout the Pacific. Porter returned to the United States and waj at once appointed to the first board of naval commissioners with the task of reorganizing the American navy. Here In served with distinction until he was assigned the task of clearing the Caribbean of pirates. Once again he succeeded, and again he ran into troubled waters. His zeal outrunning his authority, he was haled before a and suspended from service for an affront to Spanish dignity in Porto Rico.

Edward Preble was something of the same type of irascible, as Porter, unpopular with officers who served uner him, because of his strictness and his bad temper, but a gallant and brave officer nevertheless. As a boy be had fled from Falmouth (now Portland), Maine, when It was burned by the British early in the Revolution. As a youth he ran away and shipped on a privateer, was appointed midshipman in the Massachusetts state marine, participated In thret s;a fighis of the Revolution and was held a prisoner for a while on the Infamous British prison ship, Jersey. But he never had a chance to pay off old scores against the British since he died five years before the outbreak of the War of 1812, a conflict which would have given him a chance to add his name to the .1st of Illustrious American-sefighters. However, Preble did distinguish himself in a war which constitutes one of the brightest spots in our naval history. For it was he who conquered the Barbary pirates in 1S03-0He first forced the sultan of Morocco to renew the treaty of 1786 and then moved against Tripoli. After six spirited attacks, during, which three Tripolitan sliips were sunk and three captnred, a treaty of peace was signed in 1805 by which the tributes that European nations had paid for centuries and the slavery of Christian captives were abolished. In 1806 Jefferson offered Prefrle the position of secretary of the navy, but bis feeble health prevented his accepting. He died In Port" land, Maine, August 25, 1807.
