OUR MERCHANT MARINE.
San Francisco CAN.

San Francisco CAN.
From the Portland Oregonian comes
a curious argument against legisla-
ton in the direction Of upbuIldlng an
American merchant marine. II says:
Several san Francisco shipowners
were fortunate enough to have steamers
available for the transport service, and
the charter rates paid for these steam
ers by the government have invaria-
bly, been higher than the rates paid
foreign steamers FOR the same service.
AS the people as a whole will foot the
bills for these transports, it will be seen
that the burden will rest more lightly
on them had every ship in the service
been under a foreign flag"
BY reason Of the lack Of legislation to
encourage shipbuilding at home and to
put our merchant marine on an equal
footing with that Of other nations, the
United States, when the Spanish war
broke cut. found Il impossible TO OBJ
tain enough American steamers to
transport troops to the seat Of war, and
had to charter foreign ships. In that
fact the Oregonian finds a reason for
not building American ships in the fu-
ture. To most Americans the fact will
BE- reason why We should build them.
II is not 0f advantage to any nation
to Be dependent upon foreigners in
time 9f war even though such depen-
dence might b. little cheaper than in
dependence.
But the Oregonian is wrong in argu-
ing that reliance upon foreign vessels
is economical. Had the United States
possessed a merchant marine in any
way adequate to It's commercial rank,
II would not nave mad to pay such high
prices as It did for transports. Great
Britain has been liberal in granting
subsidies to shipping, and as a result
Of her wisdom she was able as soon
as President Kruger issued his ultima
tum, which meant war, 10 at oAce OBJ
tain the services Of eighty first class
steamers to transport troops to South
Africa. She obtained them much
cheaper than she could have done had
she not built up her shipping industry
in time Of peace.
The Oregonian, however, need not 20
back to the ~ " he war with Spain
nor to forsi n,1ntries to get object
lessons as to Importance Of upbuild-
ing our cor -a5l marine. Oregon
has many to of wheat and other mer-
chantable p .I-s for sale. She has
ports that cl out upon the Pacific
on the further shores Of which are
markets for all that Oregon can pro-
ducc. The at mas moreover the ma
tsr!als for building ships and men who
know how to tl5 them. Why then,
should not the produce of Oregon be
carried to ma~'et across the sea in
ships built in Jrg1n2 Why leave the
ocean earryin trade to the foreign
ers? Why pay him tribute on every
pound Of tn produce Of Oregon that
he carries? WAY leave Oregon ship

WALLACE, Idaho, July 10.-Iu
| deciding the removal cases this morn.
ing, Judge Stewart found that the
commissioners were guilty of wilful
misconduct in allowing bills to the
sheriff in excess of the lawful fees; in
allowing percentage for collecting
licenses; in issuing saloon licenses
without application or bond; in ap.
proving bonds of county officers with
insufficient sureties; in failing to take
action when notified of probable de-
struction of property at Wardner.
For these he held them guilty of
neglect sufficient to justify removal.
In the case of the sheriff he said:
defendant by his own testimony
has convicted himself of most fragrant
violation of official duty"
Continuing, he delivered warmer
roast, if possible, than that delivered
by W. E. Borah in his closing argu-
ment in the same case. Defense gave
notice of appeal.
