SEA POWER.
Since there must bo other sea Powers than that of Britain, since Germany and Franca and Russia in Europe., with Japan and China iti Asia, and with Chili and Brazil and Argentina in South America, are building great navies and constructing great battleships, it is entirely reassuring that the E iglish-speaking Republic is doing the same. For, after all, "Republic" and "Empire" 'are only terms, as "King" and "President" are only methods, and differing flags but distinguishing marks. Under our differing political organisations, under our varied flags, we seek together the same things—liberty with order, freedom within the law, and full citizenship for every individual in the State. British and American work together for these racial purposes, remarks the "Auckland Herald," and the battleship fleets which prevent outsiders from interfering with either of them in very truth save anu protect I hem both.
