Nor is it true as suggested in the cir-
color that a great navy necemrlly in-
flames the lighting spirit and leads to
war. it my recollection serves me
right while‘ Great Britain has had
troubles in Egypt and Africa. and else:-
where. she has had no conflict on sea
for many years. and yet her nary has
been twice as large as that of any oth-
er power. The recent increase in our
nary did not induce the war with
Spain. which. as things were. seems to
have been inevitable. (in the other
hand it is more than likely that if in
the beginning of 18991 we had even as
large a nary as we have now. certainly
no tartan oneasnow proposed. there
would have been no war with Spain.

without battle. At that time. however
it was the general impression mm
foreign powers and nrobahle in Strain
that her nary would blow us out of the
water.
