renewed interest in the monument move

rently been neglected. The late Gen. Joseph

GROSS sECrIoNALIsM AND INJUSTICE.

GROSS sECTIONALI5M AND INJUSTICE.
In the spring of 1891 the Chamber of
Commerce of this city sent delegation to
Washington TO talk with Postmastcr-G General
Wanamsker on the subject of using the
subsidy which the billion-dollar Congress
had voted to American ships carrying the
United States mail in the interest. az far as
possible. of Newports News. At that time
rival company TO the United States and
Brazil line of steamers which would not
stop at Newports News was being
proposed if Mr.. Wanamaker could
be induced 10 subsidize them, and
it was feared that this company
would drive out the United States and Bra
iii line. whose steamers did then stop at the
Virginia port. Mr.. Wanamsker distinctly
stated at that time that he had no idea or
discriminating against Newport's News but
that he would use the subsidy for increasing
the facilities of commerce with Brazil, and
whichever line would promise the best
service in that direction would be assisted
by his department.
Soon after this the idea of the new line
from New York to Brazil was abandoned
and the old United States and Brazil line
then took of their finer steamers. and in
place of them, hired some tramp ships to
run on their line. and also decided that
they would give Viewpoints News the go by.
and now the New York Daily Commercial
Bulletin Informs US that this company has
been granted the subsidy on the simple
condition that they put back on the
line their own more costly steamers,
this being called such an increase IN
the facilities for Brazilian commerce.
as bir. Wanamaker made the sine qua non
of the subsidy. These steamers, however,
will still not stop at Newport's News. and 30
what is the result? The line simply offers
the same old accommodations it had before
it received the subsidy at all, and vet while
the service is not Bothered Southern port
is ignored and virtually shut up for the bene-
fit of the coffee trade of New York. In other
words. Mr.. Wanamaker has in reality
not required better service, but he is
paying this line subsidy from the public
treasury, and allows them to openly dis
criminate against Southern port. although
a large share of the money which they will
receive comes from Southern taxes.
This is gross injustice and sectionalism
combined. because it both uses Southern
money to shut up a Southern port in the
interest of the North, and really makes the
Government competitor against any
other line that might be induced by the
South and West to stop at Newports News
for their trade with Brazil. 1t is only sncn
treatment as the South had reason to ex-
pect from Republican administration,
however. and will most likely continue
against all protest until the next Demo-
cratic administration is safe in power.
Then the injustice will either be remeded
or. what is better, these subsidies will be
