ONE MISSING LINK.
A GAP M THE PROTECTIVE TARIFF
SYSTEM.

It IL the Absence Of Any Effective Plan
For the Encouragement and Upbuild-
ing Of the American Merchant Marine.
The rapid development of the ship
ping trade of the Pacific coast growing
out Of the expansion of oriental and
South American commerce, the APP
preaching completion of the Siberian
railroad, the development Of Australia
and the probable opening of consider
able trade In Alaska suggests to the San
Francisco Call the pressing necessity
for some action ON the part of the Unit
protection Of our own marine industry.
The ships of Great Britain and Japan
have the benefit Of liberal government
subsidies, and it is certain that with
the completion of the Transsiberian rail-
road Russia will blossom forth with a
line of merchant steamers and will
make strong bid for supremacy in the
carrying trade of the Pacific. With
such rivalry as this the ships Of the
United States will have hard course to
steer unless congress takes some steps
toward fulfilling that pledge in the St.
Louis platform of 1895 which commits
the party Of protection to "the early
American policy of discriminating du-
ties for the upbuilding of our merchant
marine and the protection Of our ship
ping in the foreign carrying trade, so
that American ships-the product of
American labor, employed in American
shipyards, sailing under the stars and
stripes, manned, officered and owned
by Americans-may regain the carrying
of our foreign commerce.
The comment of The Call applies
with equal force to American shipping
ON the Atlantic:
'That pledge congress and the admin
lstration may be counted on to keep.
Since the clause In the tariff bill accord
ing to the attorney general is inadequate
to the purpose it was intended to ao-
complish, new law may be enacted
this winter. Certainly we cannot af-
ford to neglect our shipping at this
juncture. The struggle for commercial
supremacy on the Pacific ocean has
reached critical stage, and though we
are great and rich and powerful we
will be surpassed in that contest even
by the japanese if we do not act with
energy and with wisdom.
Proper and intelligent care for the
interests of our carrying trade on the
ocean is the one missing link in the en-
lightened and patriotic scheme of pro-
lection. 1t should be missing no longer
when the first regular session of the
Fifty fifth congress shall have passed in
tO history

AT the meeting of District Assembly No
G6, X. OF L., held last evening, the situa-
tlnn in reference TO the local brewery pro-
prietors was the principal topic OF discus
sion. Tho subject was considered at the
Ia st meeting of the assembly, and COM
mlttee was appointed to investigate the
founlaticn II of certain reports published some
time ago, referring TO demands alleged to
have been made by the organized labor in
the District.
The trouble .itwas concluded, was caused
by the demand of tine Central Labor Union
on the large local brewery proprietors,
asking that only members of that organi-
Zation be employed on all Work Of repairs
and extensions of the breweries This
demand Of the Central Labor Union was
denounced in unmeasured terms by the
representatives from several Of the local
Knights of Labor assemblies.
1t was maintained that the fact that
the brewery propriettGs had signed an
agreement with the labor organiza tions
last fall. signifying their intention TO
employ only union lahor. is considered as
sufficient, especially as the Knights Of
Labor maintain tha the Contract has been
fai, hfally fulfilled by the managing brew.

The report that the Central Labor Union
intended to place several of the local
breweries on the unfair list was not taken
seriously.
A resolution was adopted, denonncing
The Central Labor Union for attempting to
force the brewers Into the embarrassing
position of discriminating between the
labor organizations Of the City
