COURT AH INVESTIGATION.
The officials of the various ) bureaus1 in

an Investigation congress of the ad

who will queatkw that'an Investigation
Is desirable and necessary. The War
department' has been seveN4ycrltlctoed
by many of the -leading paperis of the
country ; -Allegations -Incompetency
aad'ineiBciency have been freely made.
n the opinion of a great man people
these charges are well founded'and just
Such persons will not accept any state

emanating from any of Its officials.

It is rather significant that out of all the
nations ot Europe only one , the British na-
, lon , has yet made a success ot colonization.
The other nations have generally found that
colonies cost more than they are worth.
Undoubtedly the difference between the
British and. continental method of ad
ministering colonial government bos much
* > do . .withi'talsiYet even In the case of
3reat Britain , 'If there had been on oppor
tunity 16 secure commercial , development
without incurring tk * expense ot coloniza
tion , it Is' likely that th Immense sums
paid out oa the colonization schemes would
aot have been voted so ungrudgingly.
. Of course a great .deal depends .upon the
situation and character of the colony which
1s to' be established. It has been the British
experience , however ; as well as that of the
continental powers , that attempts t cotoalso
countries 'to which Europeohs coBBOt be at
tracted or * very costly , and that' the results
do aot always pay : 'indeed , the main dif
ference between tko British form and the
continental form of colonisation Is that
Great Britain rarely attempts to plant a
colony to < - any country > to which"- British
subjects. eoBwt be aUroctsd. - > .
Tko German , Frea'eh ' * a4lUltaB methods
lave beenoh' a different scale. The conti

colonies without first making , sure that
Europeans could bo' attracted as colonists.
Prance undertook , to conquer Algeria. Ger
many made forays into But Africa. Italy
attempted to found an African emptro In

working for years , have maintained troops
la the conquered provinces and have spent

had seized , but after' all It must bo evi

The preparations mads by * Francs and
Russia'for an Increase In their respective
navies are regarded as a serious menace by
the British authorities. They consider that
the Increased naval expenditure of Russia
and France compels' Great Britain to take
such steps as will maintain her' ' Mipertority
on the seas. The wisest.course , perhaptf , Is
or Great Britain to proclaim everywhere
that she will always presevere In that pol
icy , because a clear understanding en this
point is a strong element'In' the cause'of
peace. A navy is hardly an offensive
weapon'except ' against other navies or com *
merce. England's geographical position Is
suck that It can and must defended . by
: he navy , and her enormous commerce also
requires the some' kind of defence. Were her
ivy twice as strong as It IS in relation to
those ot other powers It could not
be a menace to them any more than
It Was in' 'the sixty years after
Trafalgar , when It might .have been
said to .be .the only navy in the , world.
But an Increase In the naval power of Russia
sia- and France is a very different thing ,
and Is a distinct danger .to the peace of the
world. Neither Russia nor France has coasts
or Islands that need the defence of warships.
Neither has a sea-borne .trade that requires
so costly a means of insurance. There
fore their vast expenditure on ships of war
la a menace. Neither Germany or Austria
can be materially injured at sea. There is
one nation whose widespread territories and
lommerce make her liable to severe dam
ages from anenemy triumphant - the
leas , while withouta positive triumph a
hostile navy might so occupy her own as to
favor other schemes of her enemies , and
that is Great Britain ; and It she lost the
control of the sea for a month she. would become - ,
come , a Second class pow rt ; '

The effusive reception of Prince Ferdi

tay by Prince Nicholas Is the complement
to the visit of the former to the ezar. The
toasts exchanged and the. speeches mode at
the banquets and receptions overflowed with
enthusiasm and loyalty to the Pan-SUvlo
Idea and 'to Russia , as Its .head. , A remarka

of the Serbs for the Bulgarian 'people and
of.the senUmeatBfl.aJtectlontand ; union be

Russia was described as their great sister
and powerful and magnanimous protectress.
Prince Ferdinand's reply was an echo1 of his
host's remarks , with . complimentary rec
ognition of Montenegro as the standard-
bearer of Slavic freedom la the past. The
significance of this visit and the cordiality
of the relations bstween the two coun
tries represented by their chiefs is
noteworthy. It is not only an affirma
tion of 'the solidarity of the Slavs of the
Balkan peninsula under , the protection ot
Russia , but it marks ths distinction drawn
