THE DANBLRY REPORTER
THE UNITED STATES FLAGSHIP WYOMING!
I
The article below written by
[.Julius Muller, author of "The
j Invasion of America," is not
i .
■ only appropriate just at this sea
son but is a rare literary pro
! duction :
She is of 26,000 tons. Gray
jas a thunderdimmed horizon,
; she weighs down the sea. She
i oppresses it, not as a thing that
'floats but as something whose j
sloping steel sides tumble home
from a solid base built in
; the ocean. Upward she thrusts
tall things that are not slim masts
of an honest ship but riveted
towers of girders and steel
beams.
She is the Armored Ship. She >.
moves, and the ocean is stirred, i
Her propellors take the waves
; into their bronze arms and whirl j
|them into rapids whose spume!
i hisses on a league of trouble j
i track behind her. She pushes
aside watery masses that roll
I hugely, like the roller of the sea
j itself, and contends with them
•in white-flashing uproar. Man
made, she treads the waters like
God's hurricane.
I She is the Dreadnaught. She
moves at one with the inexorable
J sea, for like that sea serves man
1 and slays him. The instruments
for her dual purpose project
from hooded vaults that mount
| from her deck like the glacis of
, terraced forts. Graceful as rac
ing-spars are these long tubes,
and still so great that even their
grace cannot deny their brute
mission. They point at the
blank horizons, inanimate and
yet with something that is like
the glare of monsters unintelli
gently alive.
I She is the Wyoming. Twelve
11-inch puns they have set on j
her—the little mortal men who, :
i
! fifty years ago, would not have
dared to mount a single such
| steel volcano on a ship; the same
i little men who, fifteen years
ago, thought it daring experi
j ment to mountifour on an armored
craft. Poets of Destruction, they
have laden the Wyoming with
twelve, and below these twelve
angels of annihilation they have
dared to set twenty-one others.
They are smaller guns, these
twenty-one—so small that they
are called the secondary battery.
They are only 5 inches in di
ameter at the muzzle. They are
mere toys. At four miles their
! explosive-filled shell can dart
through Harveyized steel as a
circus rider leaps through a
tissue-paper hoop.
She is the Flag-ship of the
Atlantic Fleet of the United
States. On her stern, almost
(whipping the beaten wake, is j
' that flag which was designed by
' a young rough Nation that had
|no art and yet made it most
j beautiful. In her flag lockers
 lie other ilags folded and stowed
against an ominus day. They
are banners many times as big
as the one that she shows over
her tafT-rail. If the day comes
when these are hoisted to the
summits of her laced towers,
the ocean shall echo thunders
never raised by hurricane or
typhoon; for these are battle
flaps. Many men that day shall
swirl downward to the utter
dark, to bed on the earth's
ribs.
They have freighted her with
a thousand men. They have
lavished on her all that science,
art. wealth and foresight can
provide. All of man's wisdom
is centered in her—his mechanics, |
his physics, his chemistry, his |
astronomy, his mathemaf'cs, his
i I
lordship over fire, air and water
and all so that, in some brief
: hour, she shall destroy or be de
stroyed.
