A FAILURE.

Making a Landing.


Making Landing.
KEY WEST, May 16.-The trans
port Gussie has returned to this port
with the supplies intended for the
Cuban insurgents, after having made
two unsuccessful attempts to land the
supplies on Cuban soil. The Spaniards
made a strong resistance at each point
and drove the Americans back. 1t
was expected the Cubans would keep
the spanish forces back while a land
ing was heing made, but they failed to
furnish any assistance. This was
probably owing to the failure to es-
ia lish communication with the in
sur5ents.

The Urgent Need.

We can build ships as cheaply In the
United States as they are built in Great
Britain, but we must have them tc
build In similar quantities in order tc
do this.
What this country needs is law that
will make it as profitable for an Amerl-
can to put his capital into an Amerl-
can-built ship for the foreign trade as
it ever was for him to put his money
into a railroad or into any other great
protected and prosperous American in
dustry. To do that the nation must
recoenize that there are two distinct
and different standards, the American
and the foreign. To maintain our own
standard of wages and of living pref
erence must be created for the Amer
ican ship sufficient to enable Its own
er to employ native or naturalized cltl-
zens of the United States to run them
and they must be fed in a manner thai
is not degrading to that citizenship
This is impossible without such ma
tional egislation.-New York Com
mercial.

New Responsibilities and possibilities

New Responsibilities and Possibilitles'
But if there is to be annexation (of
Cuba and the Philippines) it is OBVIOUS
that the fact that the same system VI
taxation must prevail in all the terri
tories of the United States as IN the
union itself makes the carrying out Oh
the policy more difficult and more per-
picking than would otherwise be Tue
case.-London Statist.
There is no 'if'' in the case. A con-
siderable portion Of Spain's former
Oriental possessions-perhaps all Oh
them-will remain permanently in the
control of the United States; WINE
Cuban destiny plainly points toward
ultimate amalgamation with the great
est of republics. The fiscal policy
which has made our own land tne
marvel and the envy Of all creation
will not fail when applied to our new
possessions. 1t will mean to them,
what it has invariably meant to the
parent nation, advancement in moral
and material prosperity, a hlgner
standard of living, broader horizon,
greater freedom and greater happiness.
The enlarged scope Of possibilities and
responsibilities which has so suddenly
developed as the outcome of one of the
swiftest and most decisive conflicts in
the history of ancient or modern war
fare presents no problems that may not
be successfully solved by American
craftsmanship.

great interest to veterans is the histor-

both his eyes in the late war. The py-
ramid is about seven feet high and two
feet wide at the base. Each side Of

relics of all kinds, such as swords,
pistols, cannon balls, pieces of famous

AZ IeAg less than any shipyard in the
Old World is able to obtain II, ana
this for any number of years that the
concern may desire"
Mr.. Carnegie added that steel was
bound to continue very much cheaper
in this country than in any other coun7
try. Great Britain, he remarked, has
no supply of raw materials to make
steel; her coal is getting dearer and ner
ore is nearly exhausted. GERMANY
never could make steel and deliver ~
to the shipyard as cheaply as Great
Rritain. Each succeeding year Will
make more apparent the fact that the
whole shipbuilding business of the
world lies open to the United States.
With regard to the ability of the
American shipowner to equip, man anu
operate his vessel so as to restore Ing
American flag to the commerce or III
seas. Mr.. Carnegie said that he had no
doubt a way would be found by Wnlcn
this live Yankee nation would, atter
buiEling the ships, manage to operate
most of them. Although Mr.. carnegie
| on the present occasion has relfaineu
from discussing tariff questions, he is
known TO favor legislative measures
that will enhance the advantages OF
American shipping over the shipping
of foreign countries. Being able 70
nroduce the best ships in the worla
at the lowest cost, this country must
necessarily take steps to give ample
protection to the American owners OF
those ships against the rivalry or yes
sells fying foreign flags which are op-
Grated at much less cost than is possl-
ble in the manning and handling OF an
American ship. Mr.. Carnegie Is near
,lv in favor Of building up an Amer T.
can merchant marine. This country IS
prepared to supply the whole Wor ia /
with its products, and the Shippers VI
this country ought to be able to deliver
such products in vessels flying the
American flag.
cone cannot travel abroad remarks
Mr.. Carnegie, without seeing the IN
roads that the United States is maKll
in many lines of trade. In Germany
the American bicycle is being useo
more than all others combined. on
cannot walk down Regent st<eet IN
London without seeing the American
shoe shops. The wife Of a prominent
English statesman told me that she
buvs American shoes and finds that
: they are better than home made"
Men like Mr.. Carnegie who believe
implicitly in the destiny of this country
) to eventually control the commerce o.
, the world are the men who must ad
/ wise and uphold the national Legislators
in framing a suitable law to prot 9s
American cargo carriers. Just as
, great mercantile house reaps part o
its business advantage by Geliverln!
the goods it sells in its own wagons
so should America in distributing he
) varied products among the nations o
the earth be able to make her deliverle
in her own ships.
The Wichita tribune., 1898-11-26

The first step toward doing away With
the laws protecting American ship
ping was taken in response to the ar
guments of a pro-British party and
with the hope that the repeal of our
laws providing for discriminating du-
ties would help to bring about an era
of good feeling, warm friendship be-
tween this country and England. A
vain and Elusive hope it proved, as
subsequent events showed. We gained
nothing, but we lost our ocean carry
ing trade.
We have seen our import carriage in
American ships decrease from over 9O
per cent of our total import carrying
trade in the twenties to less than 20
per cent in the nineties. We have seen
our export carriage in American ships
decrease from over 80 per cent in the
twenties to less than 10 per cent in the
nineties. The gold eggs to pay for this
ocean carriage have been going into
the pockets of foreigners. There is no
reason why we should not keep them
for ourselves-no reason except our
failure to return to our former policy
of levying discriminating duties.
