The domestic shipping Of this eoun-
. try exceeds that Of any otbar country
in the world. and it is all. or NEARBY
all, carried in.foneigh built ships. A
short time ago there were loading at
the piers of New York, fifteen for the
Orient, thirty for Central and South
America, twenty for Europe, six for
the African Coast, tour for the Indi-
An Ocean md twenty-five for Aus
tralia and other foreign ports, all in
foreign bottoms.
1t is an old and trite saying where
there was suspicion OF anything
wrong: "rhere ia something rotten
in Denmark" but it is not in Den
mark this time, it is in the United
Srates. All of this cGnntry's foreign
trade is being CARRIED by -Goreign
built ships, the money for which goes
into foreign "built" pockets The
whole thing is wrong, unnecessary,
uncalled for and un- American.
The Enterprise torgcts that what
it bewails was brought about by the
''rotten" legislation of the party ID is
now seeking to resurrect in Nevada.
The legislation Of the Republican
party alone is responsible for the de-
cadence Of American shipping. Re-
move the Mckinley restrictions from
foreign commerce aud the seas will
be plowed by American built ships
carrying American produce to foreign
lands. The rottenness is not in Den
mark, but in the RepubIican legisla-
ton Ut the last thirty years.

one that nobody unqualitiedly .ap-

this industry, and the income tax was
denounced as sectional and unjust.
The laboring masses Of the North had

themselves with the party that stands
for protection, good wages, happy and

London, Septem Der a0-Ihe Gear of

ria to be present at the wedding of his
son to Princess Alix. 1t is an event of in
ternational Importance. The love of
these two young persons has united
Great Britain and Russia in way at
once romantic and lasting The marriage
between the heir to the throne of Rus
STA and Princess Alix of Hesse is full of
meaning to the writer's of history. There
was time when the royal marriage
meant an alliance of states and interests,
and was looked at from no other point
of view There may have been love
matches between kings and queens, but
they were chiefly recorded in fairy tales.
A sovereign often welded a princess
whom he had never seen. and it was
strong woman who made : her influence

Pittsurg. Pa, September 20.-The ex-
manager of the Pittsburg club and A.
K. Scandret, ex-seoretary Of the same or
ganization, today stated that new base
ball association had been organized.
From these gentlemen it is was learned
the circuit is to be made up OF Pitts

Brooklyn, Detroit, Providence and Chi
cage or Buffalo. The new organization
will be known as the National Associa-
tlon. Admission to games will be IS
cents, and it is not the intention to fight
the National League but to arrange a
schedule of games SO as not to conflict
with the latter. President Kerr, of the
Pittsburg League club did not appear to
lie in the least disturbed when told of
the plans of the new horn association.
He admitted the truth of the report
that some of the National League clubs
favor the plan of maintaining two clubs
IN each city, the second to consist of
young players, to p ny games while the
regular teams are away from home The
carrying out of this pan would be Sc

cannot raise the wages unless they secure
an advance in prices. They, however,

tlnue without interruption. The Gar

to wait, and they declare that the whole

In opening the exercises President
Hyde spoke of the many alumni and
officers of the college who had honored
the college by their presence on the &C.
casion and also of the great number of
letters and kilograms OF congratulations
which had been received, among them a
cabiegram from Edward F. Searles, the
donor, which he read.
In his address of presentation, General
Hubbard referred to the two motives
which inspired the gift, land the two pur-
poses it was to serve: AS a monument
to the woman whose name it bears and
as an aid to the progress of scientific re-
search and instruction in the college.
President Hyde accepted the gift in
behalf of the college in graceful speech
and expressed the belief that with the
excellent facilities afforded by the new
building, more complete courses in
chemistry, physics and biology would
soon be offered to Bowdoin students.
