Free Trade in ships.

The democratic platform declares IN
favor of this principle.
Let it become the policy of the nation
and the result would be disastrous. Even
the British government from which comes
the free trade theory of the democratic
party, is in practice opposed to the prin-
ciple of the Hancock party.
England has always fostered and pro-
tected her shipping interests. She has
driven from the seas the vessels OF ali
other nations as far as she was able when
they conficted with her interests. She
sent forth the Alabama and other cruisers
during the war to cripple our commerce,
and so effectually did they do the job that
they nearly drove our vessels from the
ocean. 1t was to protect and strengthen
her own commercial marine that this was
done.
England at this time is protecting her
lines of steamships by subsidies In this
way she defies the competition of lines
sustained alone by individual enterprise,
and maintains her supremacy upon the
seas.
Now the day that free trade in ships is
proclaimed to be the policy Of this
government, down go American
shipyards, we become dependent upon
foreign countries for vessels. and our
coasting trade will be opened to foreign
ers, and in peace or war we shall be sub
iect to the caprice or tyranny of those OF
whom we have to buy our vessels. With
plenty OF iron, coal, lumber, skilled me-
chanics, with a vast ocean frontage and
an immense carrying business, we must
give up all and go abroad to buy our YES
sells if Hancock should be elected.
What do our Maine shipbuilders think
of such policy as this, which would tear
their business up by the roots and turn it
into the hands of foreigners They must
know that it means destruction to their in
terests. that it would make every ship
building town in Maine as quiet as a
graveyard.
There are thousands of mechanics in
Maine who find employment in our ship
yards. Will they vote for Hancock and
against the means they have of providing
for their families?
! And beside these there are traders, and
farmers, and other mechanics, and
| Iahorers and Seamen that are dependent
in a large degree, in all our seaboard
towns, upon the shipbuilding interest for
support. Are they going to vote for Han
cock and their own ruin ?
If they look into this matter intelligent
ly they will see that the adoption of the
free trade policy would be fatal to them.

Mr.. Pillsbury Of massachusetts

Mr. Eben F. Pillsbury of Massachusetts
is speaking in the State of Maine in de-
fence of the fusion State Steal. We pre-
sumo our readers have not forgotten how
Mr. Pillsbury came to be "a citizen OF
Massachusetts,, as he calls himself. Less
than six months ago he was a citizen OF
Maine. He was one Of those who were
concerned with Garcelon and his Council
in attempts to set aside men who had been
elected by the people to the legislature
and give their seats 10 other men
who had been rejected at the polls.
He knows all about that thing. He was
a party to it, counseling and acting in 1t.
He had considerable stake in the enter.
prise-that of State printer and United
States Senator prospectively.
1t happened one day last winter that the
Contingent conspiracy came to the ig-
nominious end which it deserved. The
rightful legislature was seated; Gov Dav-
is was inaugurated and in supreme com
mand; the bogus legislature had petered
out Smith had retired to Oldtown; Saw
yer had some on his travels with the State
seal; Black and Lancaster and their ruf.
fans had vacated the State House; thu
and so it was when Pillsbury concluded Ii
was time for him to leave the State o.
Maine and become "a citizen of Massa
chusetts.''
Few and short were the prayers thai
were said" at his departure from Maine
He LETT a house in this city, law bus
mess and printing office, when he emigra
ted 10 Massachusetts. OF all the mer
who were concerned in the Counting out
conspiracy Pillsbury was the only one
who fled the State to become "a citizen Of
Massachusetts, We have Garcelon
Brown, Moody, Fogg, Monroe, Foster,
Chase, Parker, left in the State with us
Pillsbury alone event over the border
on account of the failure of the conspiracy
and became "a citizen of Massachusetts.
Perhaps man who fled the State be-
cause of his connection with the State
Steal may be Il proper man to defend II
in this campaign, but it seems to us that
Garcelon or any of the Council who had
the courage to remain are more entitled
to respect than the man who ran away
and thus confessed to both cowardice and
guilt

Republican and Democratic Econ.
Omy Compared.

The Treasury Department has published
n statement showing the amount of the an
nual appropriations made by Congress for
each fiscal year from 1873 to 1881, inclusive,
together with the coin value of such appro-
priations computed upon the average price
of gold for each week in question. The
amounts in coin value were as follows, in
round numbers: For 1873, S134 200, 900
for 1874, Sl53 Zoo, 900; for 1875, Sl37, OOO,-
900; for 1876, 1929, OOO, 900; for 1877, Sll5.-
100000; for 1873, $50, 100000; for 1879,
sl7l, 100000; for 1880, 1852 ,OO0,O 900; for
1881, SI54, 100000. The smallness of the
sum for 1873 was occasioned by the refusal
of the democrats to vote appropriations
for the support of the army and other
purposes. A comparison of the amounts ap-
propriated in 1880 and 1881 by the democrats
in the fullness of their power. with the
amounts Appropriated in lS73-4-5 by the
republicans, shows how little foundation
there is for the assertion so often made bv
the democrats, that they have been econom-
ical by reducing the appropriations. The
appropriations made in the years 1875
were in each case less than those made by
the democrats in lSS0-sl. The democratic
appropriations of 1880 exceed the republic
can appropriations of 1873 by $4,000. 900,
those of 1874 by 50 900 900, and those of
1875 by S25,O0O.OOO. The democratic APP
preparations of 1881 exceed the republican
appropriations of 1873 by 800, ZOO, 900. and
those of 1875 by Sl7 100000. The appro-
priations for rivers and harbors in lS73-4-5
averaged about 100000 900 per year. The
average in the years 1879, 1880. and 1881
was little short Of S9.OOO,OOO. For the
protection of the coast line and our great
cities by forts and Notifications there was
appropi lated in ls73-4-5, nearly $1,000. 900.
In lS79-S0-Sl the sum appropriated for these
purposes was only 81, 900, or an average
of less than 100000 per year. The state
ment furnishes material for many interesting
comparisons.
