t1K1N,s pIscREDIrED POLICY.

Discussing the scheme OF Mr.. Elklns
to force trade into American ships ~
imposing differential duties on cargoes
brought to our ports by vessels Of for
eign ownership, a policy abandoned by
this country in 1915. 4 reckless high
tariff contemporarv ssys:
Seventy years ago. after building up a
great shipping industry by s,eadfast.y pur-
sung th.s practice. we tOOhshly Surren-
dered IT, with all the advantages l. con-
ferred. and so sacrificed our ocean-carrying
trade.
In 1915 the registered American vcs-
sells engaged in foreign trade had a total
capacity Of S54.295 tons. a The begin
ming Of the civil war IN 1861, this ton
mage had trebled. Seventy-fve per
cent Of our foreign carrying was done
by our own merchantmen. Our total
shipping was nearly equal TO that Of
Great Britain, our foremos. maritime
competitor. It is foolish as well as
dishonest to ignore such facts.
Our present position with reference
to the foreign carrying trade is pre-
cise.y the reverse Of what it was when
the desolation Of war and the hardly
inferior calamity of mischievous pater-
naliSm struck the country. Then We
carried - per cent of our foreign COM
merce in our own vessels; now foreign
ers carry about so per cent. Of it in their
vessels. The way TO correct this dis
parity and to recover our legitimate
carrying business is not to engage in
war of differential rates in which 9TH
ca nations can play as strong a game
as ourselves, bu, to give our merchants
che same opportunities which the Nor
chants Of other countries have and per-
NIT them TO fly the American flag on
their vessels. Putting new impedi-
ments in the way is only calculated TO
throttle this trade.

MISUNDERSTANDING BROS.

conditions pictured doubtless are per-
fectly true. Protestants in the strictly
Catholic countries like these three
doubtless stand on precisely the same
basis as Catholics in the strictly Prot
estant countries. That is a matter
which rests solely with the respective
governments. Cardinal Satolli. il is
obvious. cannot interfere II would be
as much out of keeping with his Office
10 do so TO even make any suggestion
regarding affairs there as for the apos-
tolic delegate there. accredited TO those
countries to interfere with matters arts
ing in this country. He has no right
20 make a suggestion or proposition of
any kind in such a matter. These
letters apparently have received all due
courtesy. The Cardinal secretary OF
state took prompt steps TO secure infor-
nation for this association, Cardinal
Gibbons forwarded their communica-
tons and obliged them where possible.
and in ar least one case they received
a response from the papal ablegate. But
il would be impossible 10 answer all
letters which do not relate to his duties
ard there are hosts of these. Big Dus-
mess establishments do not pretend TO
answer all such letters, and Cardinal
Satolli has certain line of duties for
which alone he is responsible. | have
no doubt some letters have been re-
ceived here and remained unanswered.
but that. as in the case Of letters 10 9TH
e-s al the head OF the Catholic Church,
should not be construed TO mean a ma
licious ignoring. but merely that the
matters 10 which they related do not
come within the province of the proper
persons addressed. Cardinal Satolli
has no special knowledge or acquaint-
ance with the conditions and constitu-
lions in those countries and il would
therefore, for that reason alone. be
manifestly improper for him to inter
fere."

F1orRExPoRTs TO BRAZIL,

Much is said in the letters Of response
10 the circulars of The Ways and Means
Committee from soma millers in Min
neso.a and elsewhere. Of the effect Of
me reciprocity treaties in stimulating
the expectation OF wheat Jour to Brazil
and other countries. II is said, too,
that the abrogaton Of these treaties has
suddenly checked the expectation of
this product; and this statement has
readily been accepted, as if there could
be no question Of lis entire truth. But
the eoficial returns Of trade show that
The statement. like most other tariff
mOngering assertions, Is not true.
During the fiscal year 1893 the ex
por,s Of wheat -four 10 Brazil amounted
70 S37,039 barrels. Of the value OF 3d.,
647.251 In 1894 these exports TO Bra
I'll amounted to 92O,S69 barrels, valued
at SS,59SS71 During the eight months
ended February %. 1896. these exports
% Brazil amounted 10 62O,2l1 barrels,
valued al s2.426 .9O5-a gain of S4,O64
barrels and of S627, 727 over the CORE
spending period in 1895. At this rate
the exports Of wheat flour 10 that coun-
try promise to exceed in quantity and
in value the exports of 1898 under the
full operation Of reciprocity. But there
was a very large expectation Of wheat
-four and Of other breadstuffs during
the month Of March last, OF which the
official details have NO; yet been pub
hshed. When these returns come in
they viii doubtless indicate for the year
a larger expectation OF wheat -four to
Brazil than in 1894. the last full year
Of alleged reciprocity.

THE RINGS METHOD.

Republicans who are IN a position TO

close to two thousand vOtes were polled

many votes the ring candidates could
poll, but how many the candidates out
side the ring would poll. When

MAKAPALA by THE SEA.
XXII.--SALT.
(By Anne Marie Prescott.)
(ConcIusion.)

When that citrus fair was about
opening in wicked San Francisco,
one of the counties wished to send
Rock of Ages" You all know
that hymn is now considered as
the "No. / hymn" not of course
including those mighty master
pieces, "Te Deum Laudamus,"
"The Magnificat," "Jubilate Deo,"
etc. But of the modern hymnolo-
gy it stands unrivaled. - Top
lady.) The committee, some of
the powers, entirely objected say
ing that the subject, represented
by oranges, rocks and water, was
out Of place in a hall where the
washed and unwashed crowd
would sweep in day and night,
on bought. or on borrowed season
tickets, for sightseeing, recrea-
ton, light music and amusement.
But, some wise man or men held
the ground, and argued that it
would be as good as a pinch of
salt-a sort OF saving grace at
that cheap but marvellous show
of Gods gift to man in the
citrus line. Let us have
the cross here in San Fran
cisco lifted high, right amongst
our fruit-we insist" And the
cross OF magnificent, selected
golden balls stood out from floor
to ceiling, the central object of re-
gard. All honor to those men
who put Christ into their busi-
ness!
There was a perfect locomotive,
windmill, pretty little chalets
and many other objects of beauty;
and a fine band of music. Every
one voted who came and in few
days the Rock of Ages" was
hundreds ahead! In the evening
beautiful lighting - fairy land.
The hymn was sung al d
two women completed the picture.
There was no disorder allowed.
And it was as good to that crowd
as an exhortation. They might
forget the locomotive, or the
wind mill-they would not forget
the singing of that hymn and the
Cross Salt.
What is the matter with our
mince-meat, it is so fat, so little
taste ! We have put everything
good into it-mace, citron, all
spice, plenty Of sugar, raisins,
currants, brandy, nutmeg, can
died fruit, cider, apple, little rum
what is the pilikia we wonderY
Try another pinch of salt, and
10 The rich favors are all
there.
81 Esdras saw upon the Mount |
Sion great people, whom l
could not number, and they all |
praised the Lord with songs. And |
in the midst of them there was a
young man of a high stature,
taller than all the rest, and upon
everyone of their heads he set a
crown, and was more exalted; |
which [ marvelled at greatly. So |
l asked the angel, and said, Sir,
what are these? He answered |
AID said unto me, These be they |
that have put off the mortal
clothing, and put on the immortal
and have confessed the name of |
God; now are they crowned and
receive palms. Then said l unto
tue angel, What young person is it
that crowneth them, and giveth
them palms in their hands i? So |
he answered and said unto me, 1t
Is the Son of God, whom they |
have confessed in the world.
Then began | greatly to commend |
them that stood so stitfly for the |
name of the Lord. Then the an
gel said unto me, Go thy way, and
tell my people what manner of
things, and how great wonders of
the Lord thy God, thou hast SEEN"

AS TO OBITUARIES

We have received, the past week,
for publication, several artiolks in the
nature OF obituaries, which do not APP
pear in our columns. 1t is sincerely
our desire to respect the wishes Of our
readers and friends, and nothing is
farther from our desire than to omit a
single item Of news that rsay reach us.
Particularly is this true death notices.
1t is part OF our business to insert such
and it is a duty. AT tine same time it
remains our duty to our readers to
confne our matter to such space as
our columns and facilities will permit.
Tie expressions Of regret, sympathy,
faith, hope and trsst which naturally
spring from the hearts of the bereaved
ones and often find their way into the
printers hands are worthy Of respect,
but we must all remember that how
ever deeply we thus feel, Others have
stood and will stand in exactly our po-
sition, and all realize and appreciate
such feelings at such times. The pub
LEGATION OF such expressions, often a.
great length, entails upon the publish
err an amount oflabor and space which
should rightfully belong to others.
We therefore, deeming it a duty and
a privilege to make mention of items
of news, interest and fact in regard to
such friends who may precede US to
the world beyond, must decline to &C.
ccpt obituaries unless previous arrang
ements have been made for their pub
LEGATION. -Crossville Chronicle.
