'Underline "title of - "The Middle West Pormeriean Shipping," the Merchant ManneXeague of the..Unitr ed States is issuing a little pamphlet setting forth a few editorials favorable to the Ship Subidy Bill, vtaken from several newspapers Democratic as well as Republican, published " in the Middle jWest. One of the editorials is from the Dayton Journal, and

; j.tates that "the senate is to be con-

-s granulated on having passed the.'Stfip Subsidy Bill in spite of all the irrational' clamor . which , has Iresounde'd . ovelj the word subsidy, ,' , This wora is not necessarily Tad; it is ba.only when it is applied to a. grant 'for an 'unjust purpose or when it is" misdirected. When the purpose is" proper and the aid is correctly and honestly given where it is due, the word is without sinister meaning." Passing over the question of congratulating the SenateV-of special interests-1 .the moat of the whole question , resolves itself into whether or not the principle involved in the Ship Subsidy Bill is the proper thing for Ameriican citizens to countenance. It is not a question of whether or not the word subsidy is responsible for raising an irrational clamof, but of whether or 'not the fundamental causes for the existing condition of the American merchant marine, would justify the, government-in assuming the burden of an annual shipping subsidy. The ship owners and

ship builders themselves , , have ..furnished the key-to the whole situation. They state that owing to the high price of ship building materials, it is impossible, to construct vessels as cheaply in this country as in foreign countries. They are wrong, however, in regard 16 the remedy with which they propose to cure this condition of affairs. The proposal of. the ship builders to subsidize duierican built ships will not eCect a .pertnanen remedy. A permanent remedy, and the only: one which will put the American ship building industry , on a firm basis,, is to revise the tariff of this country. . Tariff revision strikes right at t her root of the evi,l, by removing the one means by which . . the Steel trust is enabled to command such high and unfair prices for its products. The' ship building industry is xrobably more dependent on the Steel trust for building materials, than' is any other industry. .in . the country. Practically every material entering into the construction of a fcnodern ship, whether steam or sail,

hull' ore 'of 'steel, as are likewise the bolts with which the plates are fastened to the steel ribs. Masts are fren constructed of steelrand the wooden deck of old has given way to themodern steel deck in order Jo.ob- ' .. . . ..''-.; a-v'.L tain greater- -protection , f rom nre." Everything, in fact, of any importance about a ship, is constructed of steel nowadays. Therefore, when-the ship builders complain that' the high price of building materials prohibits them from competing with foreign ships built of as good but less expensive materials, they are unconsciously complaining of a tariff system which enables the Steel trust to enormously overcharge them. ' The Steel trust has no right , , to . the great amount of protection it now receives from" the Dingley tariff.; As fully one half of the stock of this company is watered, . it is un-

the various manufacturies of this country, in order to pay large divi-j dends on its preposterous . capitaliza- i tiori. 'There "s . nothing sinister about the word subsidy when it is applied to a proper purpose," but is it proper for the Government of the United States to pay a bribe to the ship builders, in order to keep them from complaining toq loudly about the injustice our high tariff is causing them through the aid it gives to the grasping propensities of the - Steel trust? , REPUBLICANS PLEASED . THINK STILL WELL CROMER SETTLEMENT IS WISE. Yi Cromer Now Will Be Able . To Get His Name on the Ticket at the Primary. .v.Richmond Republicans haVe been displaying much interest in the con gressional figKt in the Eighth district where Horace ' Still well and George Cromer, aspirants, for, representative, have been tneririiPfes The opinion prevails among local Republicans that the action of ..the Republican State Committee in issu ing orders to the Eighth district com mittee, whereby Cromer :ocafcnoti be f .hult out'?' was;T the ,- only proper course ttp. pursue. Ut By j this lorder of the State Committee, Congressman Cromer need not abide by the. rules heretofore adopted and hisnanle will go on the ticket in. the district; primaries,, j Stillwell and his friends ? may not accept ; the situation gracefully, and there"., is sbme cljance that there will be two district primaries and then the courts will be resorted to in order to determine which of the two candidates shall be deemed the party nominee. ' SAYS WATSOH IS THE MAH I am amused to see a man intending to try to defeat Mr. Watson for Congress. To me this is certainly a hujre joke, or is it really a scheme to split our party so the "Demmies" can slip in a man? Don't .they know that that man does not live that can beat "Jim" Watson in the Sixth district. Some years ago we thought he would do; now we know, t We. have been fooled, but have leartied not to swap an old "wheel hoss.'.' Maybe he's been hit a lick,,. -but-he's the "whip" himself now. He will not balk, ami was not born in the forests pold Randolph to be frightened. He's the stick of timber that exactly fits the niche and needs neither dressing nor smoothing) down, ' and sound as a dollar. , ? "Our Jim" talked to us t'other night, and the way he can talk! He is broad-shouldered, broad-minded Jim. I almost wish my . name was Jim. Greenfield. W. IL REES.
