Business Common Sense.

from the Dry Goods Chronicle.I
1t does seem as IL there was less busi-
ness common sense brought to bear up
on the problem of extending American
trade to other countries than in any
other matter in which this country is
interested.
In developing the trade ofour own
great country, we know that quick and
frequent communication is the first re-
quisite; that the mails must be carried
over the sparsely settled parts of the
country regularly, even If the postage
on many routes does not pay the ex-
pense; that when one business centre
tsreaches outn for the business of a GER
tain territory by furnishing quicker
communication or lower rates, COM
peting centres must do the same or lose
the trade; that trunk lines build up
their respective termini, and the great
problem in trade is to get the business
started your way, even If it costs some
thing to do it, after which the natural
increase may be relied on to reduce the
percentage of cost and in time pay q
profit.
Now, the foreign trade is governed
by the same rules. Steam and electric
ity have made the world one vast
market open to the manufacturers of
all the world on equal terms, but those
who can reach it the quickest and most
frequently will get the bulk of the
trade. When merchant sees COM
petitor getting the best of him he finds
out where his competitors facilities are
superior to his own, and meets them
with equal improvements, but the Gov
eminent Of the United States refuses to
sustain its steamship lines to even the
extent which third and fourth-rate ma
tions sustain theirs, and while expend-
ing millions of dollars on mail routes
on lands which do not pay expenses,
refuses to apply the same principle to
commerce on the high sea. Private
citizens have patriotically endeavored
to restore the American flag to the
proud place it once occupied on the
ocean, but have gone down before the
competition of foreigners who were
backed by their governments. Ever
now such efforts are being made, nota
Ibly by the American line to Soutt
America, but 1t seems to meet with
little encouragement from the Unitet
States Government, and it Is not inn
probable that it will 60 down as its pre-
decessors have done before the unequa
competition Of foreign lines that ar
sustained by adequate pay for carrying
the mails. If it does, it will be l0nl
time before another set of men suffic
iently patriotic and enterprising vii
be found to again put capital and effor
into establishing American STEAMSHIP

How They Love the Soldiers.

The inmates of the Soldiers Home
at Bath in this State have had the
audacity to think and vote as they
please. A good many of them vote
the Republican ticket, but more of
them vote the other way. Out Of the
whole number--about 600--enough
voted the Democratic ticket to give
cleveland twenty five plurality over
Blaine and Hill ffty-eight plurality
over Davenport. This condition Of
affairs excites the wrath Of the Repub-
lican politicians of the town. ave
are the soldiers friends" they say,
sand they ought to vote as we direct.
If they will not do SO they shall not
vote at all" Accordingly the Repub-
lican election officers Of Bath have re-
fused to accept the votes of these vet
Grams, on the ground that the Soldiers
Home is o kind of State almshouse
and that its inmates are paupers not
entitled to vote. The question is now
before local court in suit brought
by one of tie soldiers for $50 damages
against the election officers who re-
fused his vote. As the sum is too small
however, to permit carrying the case
to the Court Of Appeals and the Re-
publican lawyers on each side have
agreed to submit a stated set OF facts
without argument, there is some nat
ural fear that the matter will not be
fully considered.
Under these circumstances Mr..
Wolf, the Democratic representative
of the district, introduced bill in the
Assembly giving the inmates Of the
home the right to vote. By. strict
party vote the Republicans refused to
allow the third reading of the bill. A
similar bill, introduced by Nh. Murphy
| in the Senate, was sent by Republican
votes to the Judiciary committee,
which will undoubtedly smother it.
No concealment was made of the par.
tisan bias that controlled the action OF
the Republicans Mr.. G.. D. Baker, in
the Assembly, declared that the matter
was political one, and that the so.-
diers Of the home were overwhelming
| ly Democratic.
We have here fine test of the
sincerity of the profession of devotion
to the cause of the soldiers made BY
Republican politicians. Like their
devotion to the cause OF the negro, it
is nicely proportioned to the number
OF votes it brings them. So long as
an appeal to war feelings can secure
them the votes of the soldiers, they
are the soldiers friends; but if these
people propose to vote the Democratic
ticket, then the Republican politicians
have no further use for them. They
are ingfates; perhaps traitors In
this particular case, having accepted
the States generous offer to provide
for them, and having surrendered
their pensions to help support the
institution, they are branded as pau
tpers. Why? Simply because it SC
happens that majority OF them vote
