Century Of Wonder.

A retrospective view OF the nine.
teenth century calls out that ex.
preston from the Rev. Minot !.
Savage the great unita. ian preach.
er in his last sermon of the year.
He said in part:
There are no classes in this
country. and the agitation that is
going on as to the condition of the
laborer, instead of being a dis
couragiug sign, 1t is hopeful one.
Il is said that the rich are growing
richer and the poor poorer. This
is simply not true. There are
more rich people in this country
today than ever before, but
there are not more people
poor, according to the popular
idea. There never was a time. in
general way, when wages were
so high as they are today--when
the common people could earn so
much and so easily"
DIR. Savage referred to the ad.
vancement of woman's position
during the closing century, and
said that as soon as all the women
OF this country desired the right of
suffrage they would receive it. He
also spoke of the present reform
movement in New York, hoping for
its success, but deprecating the ex.
plotting of information about vice

Dangers of Marine Decay.

In permitting its carrying trade
on the ocean to drop to 9 per cent
of the total business Of transport
ing an enormous volume OF exports
and imports the United States has
overlooked some facts of great i'm.
portance connected with the ma
tional defense. Foreign ships
handle 81 per cent of our foreign
trade, and they are manned by
foreign sailors. As consequence
the number of American sailors is
comparatively small AS the navy
is enlarged this defect is seriously
felt. The people of this country
pay an average of $500, 900 a day
to foreign ships to meet their
freight bills. The money goes in
part to make foreign sailors in
over increasing numbers. This
nation has an enormous coast line
and it needs sailors of its own.
Another point is that foreign ships
can be withdrawn in time of war.
The title of the frye subsidy bill
speaks of providing the United
States with auxiliary cruisers,
transports and seamen for govern.
ment use when necessary" A
system that creates sailors for
other countries is manifestly
dangerous.
1t the commercial shipping of
foreign countries were unsubsidized
the advocates Of free trade in the
ocean carrying business could be
honest. But when every one of
our foreign competitors subsidiz
its shipping in some way 1t is
clearly a case of humbug when
their representatives 20 into har-
angues on the subjec, of unpro-
tected ships. Their practice is en-
tirely different and they have Sc
cured more than nine.tenths of our
ocean carrying trade by subsidiz
ing their ships. American seamen
receive better wages than any
other, and they are entitled to
protective measures, as are ali
American woikmen. American
shipowners have been through a
battle with cheaper labor on for
eign subsidized ships have obtain.
ed almost the entire business. II
is time to do something to the
point, and the ship subsidy bill is
the most effective remedy that can
be devised. Globe Democrat.
