or less ornate and fgurative, advocates
annexation as he wisest and safest

"Epoca compares Cuba's annexation

ed with the empty vanities Of separate
existence, and only asking that its

THE TRANs-PACIFIC CABLE.

Secretary Root recommends the
building Of the Philippine cable from
Seattle and in his report states that
the cost will be less by S2,OOO.OOs on
that route than il laid from San Fran
cisco
The secretary in this recommenda-
tiOn has not regarded politics. He has
been looking for the nearest and cheap
est route. But he has not yet found II.
There can be no question that it will
be cheaper by Tar to lay the cable from
the mouth Of the Columbia. Why has
not this been discovered? 1t is not the
fault of the secretary OF war He is
impartial. The trouble is, we are asleep
We let the world forget that We are on

this cable question. Let us begin.
VIII the Oregonian aid in securing
this cable for the mouth Of the Colum-
bia? Has it any reason To offer for
declining TO throw its powerful in
fiuencc in favor of this movement? ?
With Oregon united Secretary Root can
b. convinced that the route from the
mouth Of the Columbia TO the Philip
pines is the most expedient, and when
he is convinced he will recommend
that route.
The time is short and immediate, en-
ergetic action is necessary. VIII the

OCEAN CARRYING.

san Francisco Bulletin.
A correspondent inquiries as TO the
cause which operate to make the cost
Of maintaining an American vessel on
the ocean greater than the cost Of
maintaining competing European YES
sells. He also wants 10 know II this
greater cost could not be avoided by
giving shipmasteTs the privilege u
buying ships and hiring seamen in
foreign ports. The wages Of seamen
are largely determined by the wages
paid to workers On farms, factories and
other industries. The shipowner of
whatever other country has 20 compete
in the labor market with merchants
farmers and manufacturers The aver
age wages are about forty per cent
higher il the United States than in
Europe, and it - the average wages
that establishes the standard of wages
in this and in all other countries.
During President CIeveland's first
term he caused to be made com
parison Of the cost Of maintaining
American ana British ships. for the
purpose, it was supposed Of estab-
fishing the assumption that If th-
American shipper was permitted to
purchase vessels iu the cheapest mar
kat there would be no reason why the
American merchant marine should not
receive a fair 7hare Of the ocean-ca
rying trade Captain Russell. consul
general at Liverpool at the time made
a thorough investigation Of the condi-
tons under which the ocean-carrying
trade was carried on in the two cOun-
tries, and reported that it cost q per
cent more to officer and man an Amer

shipper TO compete with the European
shipper The 40 per cent difference IN
wages is about equal 20 the average
rate If protection afforded our manu-
factur-rs and If rhe same rate Of pro-
lection could have been given 10 the
ocean carrying industry the ocean car
ryirg trade would not have been lost.
But as one end Of a foreign voyage
must necessarily be in a foreign port,
the industry had TO be prosecuted under
frce-trade principles.
Jnder our present laws all American
steamships carrying the mails are re-
quired to ship at least one-half Amer
lean sailors. The protection afforded
the coastwise trade tends to establish
a higher rate for that branch Of the
service than for deep-sea vessels, but
the difference is not 80 great as the
difference between the wages Of Amer
lean and Of British deep-sea vessels
While we may soon build ships az
chenply as our competitors, there Is m
present prospect Of maintaining them
as cheaply unless the government shall
contribute to the maintenance Of such
vessels.

greater than the total for the cores
