Secretary Long Intends to reorgan
ize the personnel of the American navy.
Thi? -will meet with the approval of his
countrymen in general and of ' naval
officers in particular. ' These centle-
.men, by profession and observation; are
best qualified to speak.- They are unan
imously of the opinion that the, Amer
ican sailor is the best sailor iri the
world. JThere is no "buncombe" iarthis.
Their opportunities for comparison
have been .unlimited. They state a
judgment maturely formed. Not much
sentiment emters into modern war, but
the nation would like to see hone but
Americans on guard if it can be broug-ht
about. - The men gathered" upon .the
upper deck of the Treniton in the gTeai
Samoan storm, listening- to the band?
play "Hail CJolumibia" and cheering the
Stars and Stripes as it floated over them
for the last time, did a'deed whose re
cital stirs tolood like a trumpet's call,
but somethiner of crlorv and beautv is
taken from the picture when 'it, is
learned . that one-third -of them' were
foreigners. Thev were brave, whafpvpr
j-their country, and they knew how to
me, put wej would prefer to know that
they were all American bora. The
chief difficulty to be encountered by
the secretary and his aids, lies in the.
fact that it is hard to induce Americans
to enlist. 'So -many avenues promising
better things -are open, to active inen
in. 'this country that they have turned

and it..is"ix child's play.- The .sailor
cooped , between ; decks is much more
under the eye of his officer than a pri
vate in the ranks, and is compelled
therefore to walk; a much straighter
line. : He lives plainly; is f orced to keep
good hours, is not given "shore leave"
any oftener than is good for him, and
consequently improves in health 'and
morals. - This life' makes more of a
man of him, ' but he does not amass
money . s Tf heenilists for a second term
with a: "continuous service certificate"
he is classed as an ordinary Tseanian, and
his payis inqreased to $11.50 per month.
; The average age' of t the American
navy man is. 27 years. ( He is enlisted
mostly at New York. Boston. Philadpi-
phia, Norfolk and Mare Island,1 or San
a rancisco. it is a fact not generally
known that bv far the best
'from the lake region. ' Physically they
are ot superb type. Kavigation on the
lakes is peculiar. There is 'litfl se
room Squalls; are qiick and storms
violent.. These conditions demand fast
action on the part of men who brave
the elements on the unsalted seas. Thp
lake seaman is quick-witted. He is of
ready decision. He' is never able to
divest . himself of . his early training-,
and, though in the middle Atlantic, if
given an order will spring- instantly to
irs execution , ' .
."Formerly the best of our seamen
were obtained from the fishing fleet of
the -New England coast. That school
produced sailors whose equals the
world has never seen. It no lonarer
g-ives them to us, because the school
itself has become' almost a thin? of
the. past. The, present fleet is not one-
twentieth of its former sdze. The men
who manned it in the old days are dead
or retired, and their sons have found
other ways of making" a living, .but in
its time it was a wonder. From this
school .came the sailors who astonished
the world in 1812, wno showed the bull
dog retrain ... of '- their , ancestry? when,

boys of 15 onT the New England Voast
will ma'ke voyage while asleep that
would deter older : men with their
senses about them. ' "
The American, according to the testi
mony of experts, is not a braver sea
mam than the Englishman, but he is a
better seaman. He will execute an or
der while a man from the older coun
try is thinkin? "about it. He will do
a job of knotting or sDlicinc while the
Britisher is rettine' his tools. He is
more intelligent and will learn twice as
fast. Because of the. climate that has
blessed him and his progenitors and be
cause of thft conditions nndpr : wlnoh
they and he have lived, he is faster on
his ieet. In a month's time he will
have - at his finsers ends that which
will : take the foreigner a year to learn
partly. , - The reason for this is aiopar-
ent In nine cases out of ten the Brit
ish sailor has been atlwa.vs a isailor.
That is . all he knows and all he cares
to bnow The American recruit may
have been a lawyer or a doctor, or a
ftook agent, used to invading homes and
selling people 1 things for which they
nave no earthly use. In spite of this,
he is amenable to discipline. Three
months on shipboard takes the cocki
ness out of him. The beauty of him
is that he obeys because he. under
stands that it is necessary to obey.
It 'is estimated that the foreigners in
our .navy can be weeded out in six
years. We have ';.the finest cruisers in
the world, and it is fitting, that they
should be manned - by the brothers of
those who built them. Speed the time!
