TIN PLATE INDUSTRY.
The Democratic party he's perststenty opposed pro-
tectne the tin plate industry in this country At the
session OF Congress Just closed the Republicans put
tin on the free list and advanced the duty on tin plate
so that this industry may be established and built mp
In the United States. 1t must be Kept In mind that
what We call tin plate is made largely Of iron. No
weli-founded argument can be made against the en-
ns e. Of this naa; Ws sdsse

THE SHIPPING INTERESTS SHOULD BE ENcoUR-
AGED
At the last session Of Congress the Republican party
brought in two bills to encourage shipping. IL Is
admitted on all sides that this Interest needs en-
courage ment. Before the war the Chlteo eta@s
had about 20 per cent of the international trade
which was carried in American ships Now they
have ONLY IA per cent. The people have been fright
ened by the word subsidy while England has gone
on sub,diling 1t is largely through hcr encourage
