10 the prosecution of the policy of

step Is the development OF our mer-

have entered, we must carry our pro-

we must, in like manner, gain COM

deliberate and s'eadfsst rational policy
to create powerful merchan. navy
which shall carry our nag on every sea
which shall seek new fields and cult

crown our acknowledg ed N astery with

Secretary Gage, in slluding TO this
exhibit, says: 1.-THE only dark spoS
on this record of the nations progress
il our failure in the carrying trade up
on the high seas. This record must,
and will, be improved. Political con-
siderations compel solution OF the
shipping question. Oar people, our
lawmakers, and our president, appre-
ciate that our ind ustrial Independence
II not be established, our geographic
cal possibilities will rot be realiz ID,
our natural aspirations will not be
satisfied until we can record as signal
successes, in the most highly organized
line of modern activity, intern atioas
navigation, as 10 agriculture, msnufac-
lures, and transportation within our
own confuee."
With coast lice greater than that
OF any other nation; with nation of
maritime instincts: with traditions
from Paul Jones to George Dewey in
an unbroken record of intelligence and
intrepidity, we have tolerated a policy
toward our foreign shipping which has
vestment until it is nothing short of q
national disgrace.
1t Is absurd for the United States to
rely upon foreign ships TO distribute
our products as it would be for one
business house TO depend upon the
wagons of competing house to make
its deliveries.
Every ship is missionary of trade,
and steam lines work for their own
countries just as railway lines work for
their terminal points.

ciate the privilege of stepping into ;

through space at the rate OF forty mile

sat Ia our drswiug-roOms or were
sleeping IN our beds at home?
At every hour OF the day aud night
the iron horse is speeding over this
great country, guided by clear-ey ed
and strong-armed drivers, drawing q
freightage of life and property beyond
estimate.
How little the public knows OF the
wonderful system and the NUN berless
signals and appliances necessary to &C.
complish this result?
While railroad rates as whole are
more than reasonable in this country
unjust DETERMINATIONS between ship
pers and between localities exist which
are detrimental alike to the railroads
and the public. Concessions are
granted to large shippers which give
them an undue Advantage over small
ones and give rise to public prejudice
which finds it's expression In leeisla-
tion and 10 the jury box; rates are rea-
sonable but uniformity and stability
are lacking.
The economy of operation largely
depends upon the volume of business.
The shipper in q sparcely settled coun-
try with small business does not ap-
preciate this He sees that rates in
the far West are much higher than
those in the east and falls an easy
prey to the politicians who advocate a
reduction. Yet the sure net returns to
the investor, including freedom from
unjust legislation are indicated by the
relative prices of stocks in two OF the
great divisions above noted.

In our foreign commerce the large
organizations OF capital known as
trusts" are doing work in extend
ing American markets that IL would be
impossible for smaller units of capital
to accom- pl!sh.
The organization of industry has ap
peared 30 suddenly that the public was
startled, as a good horse will shy at an
umbrella when it is opened suddenly
In his face, but let him smell of it and

Their evil will be eliminated, their
good will be developed, their useful
ness to mankind demonstrated, and the
bogy which the rivalries of sensational
jourD sl'sm and partisan politics have
conjured up will fade into thin

TRANSPORTATION ON THE SEA

of transportation service has been even

Industries going; and the party which
will keep the workingmau's dinner

kept in power, for it means good mar
kets for the farmer, good profits for the
merchant, employment for the profess

WANT THE FREE ZONE.
Residents OF JuareZ Are Still Stirred
10 Over the Proposed Abolition.

A petition has be an ant to Presiden
Diaz by residents of Juarez protesting
against the proposal to abolish the
Free Zone. It was signed by ali classes
of the people. 1t is known that Attor-
ney Castillo, the special agent sent by
the government to Investigate, recon-
mended the abolition of the zone and
many people in Juarez believe that, as
the HERALD published sometime ago,
there was good reason to believe that
the government seriously contempla.-
ed abOlishing the zone at the beginning
of the fiscal year. What effect this
protest, which is said to have been
made not only at Juarez but also At
the towns of the zone, will have upon
the government action, remains to be
seen.
The petitioners set forth that under
the present laws there are no indus
tries of any kind in tho Free Zone and
cannot be for number of years to
come. The droush has ruined the
agricultural interests and hencs every
thing In the way OF food, clothing or
other necessities b as to be brought In
from the United States IT full duties
are charged the cost of living will be so
greatly enhanced as to totally de-
duties they say increase the cost of
living aud they ask for their reduc-
tion to per cent.
They ask that duties be removed
from native products shipped into the
interior so SO to perm t them TO build
up some self sustaining industries and
to compete with the interior on equal
terms. II this is done they say Jusrez
may have q chance to become self
supporting and then the abolition of
the Free Zone might be safely con-
sidered.

Yesterday morning Beatty was
brought into court for trial. bu,
seemed TO be almost in state of
collapse, as he hardly eats or sleeps
and was unfit for trial. He was sent
back to Jail until to day, when he
will be brought back again. If he
is not tried this court, il is generally
believed he never will be tried. for
unless he braces up he will not live
till the next term.
Beatty's boy was brought into
court yesterday and confessed to
breaking into Mines cellar after the
cider, and was sentenced to one year
in the penitentiary. James Fisher,
the colored man from Mannheim.
who also confessed, got four and a
half years in the Pen.

WRITES TO BILL.
Prisoner at Moundsville Addresses
Emperor William.
Wants n job In the Imperial Household
Says He Can Converse With the
Dead and do Other Strange
Things.

From the Wheeling News.
emperor William, Germany"
was the direction on a letter that
was mailed at the Moundsville post
office yesterday. This is very likely
the only letter posted at that office
to a person of foreign royalty. The
letter was written in the penitentiary
by Sam Yeager who is serving ten
years sentence. He claims that
his time will xepire in about IS
months.
feager writes to the Emperor for
a position as soon as his time at the
pen shall have ended, stating that
he has become tired of American
freedom and yearns to again Join
his relatives and friends in the old
country. He gives the Emperor a
full report of himself, while in
America and tells him of hts
mysterious gifts. Yeager thinks
that he can be of much use to his
imperial highness as body guard
or detective as he has the power to
talk to persons who are half a mile
distant without moving his lips.
He also claims to have the gift of
talking to the dead. He has many
other accomplishments of a like
nature which he explains to the
Emperor in the letter.
The prison officials report Yeager
as being a sane man apparently and
save for the claims of his wonderful
power shows no signs of insanity.
Yeager is a native of Germany.
Before his incarceration in the
penitentiary he lived in the lower
end of the State. He seems to be
in earnest in his desires to quit the
country of his adoption and move
back to the land that gave him
birth.
