The Shin Subsidy Bill.

from Dry Goods Economist, Dec. Is, 1901
The present moment, when the peo
pie of the United States are urging
congress to remove large portion
of the burden of taxation imposed by
the war with Spain, is most in
opportune one for the introduction
of a bill whose object is to draw from
the treasury some $9,0O0,000 per yeal
for period Of 20 years, even though
the ostensible aim of the measure is the
building of our merchant marine. Not
only, however, is the ship subsidy bill
inopportune; its object is entirely un
just. The proposed bill is, indeed, il
a parcels post; in the one case as il
the other the money of the people is
to be used for the benefit of few
the few in this case being limited
number of owners of ships. Still worse
not only would our citizens be required
to pay a large sum for the benefit OF
American shipbuilders, but it appears
that this bill, if enacted into law. would
furnish bounties to many foreign built
vessels, since it provides that foreign
built ships, of which 81 per cent ol
more is owned in America, are to be
allowed to participate in half. sub
+. sidy if their owners agree to built
ships of an equal tonnage in American
yards.
The Merchants association of New
York has strenuously opposed the pas
sage of the measure and adopted a res
olution to the effect that the bill now
pending before congress is counter tt
public sentiment and in conflict will
the public good in admitting foreign
tonnage to American registry and one
half subsidy.

ENLARGEMENT.
Couple Agree to Wed When They Have
Saved Sl,50O.

In consideration of their love, favor
and affection for each other, Angeline
LIE Marie and Edward Reynolds agree
to contribute weekly for the next two
years toward the establishment of a
fund of 81, 500 which, accomplished
shall enable them to start life as man
ard wife 1t is further agreed that
they shall be married at the end of two
vars if the task they have proposed fol
themselves be accomplished, and in the
event of failure they shall abandon the
idea of marriage. Miss LIE Marie
agrees to contribute $40 week, and
Mr.. Reynolds promises TO contribute
S. per week.
On the successful working out OF
this agreement depends much in q new
century evolution in matrimony. Ro
nance is subordlnated TO bread and
butter, through no fault of the young
people, however. Cupid smiled and
sighed on Miss LIE Marie and her
fiance during the last year of the old
century, but he had a chill when their
parents took hand and decided that
the wooing must henceforth be con
Quoted on business basis and the
young folks reluctantly agreed.
They went before Justice of the
Peace George Seymour, of Hoboken,
Wednesday, drew up the agreement
on which their marrIge depends and
dutifully signed their names.
Angeline lie Marae is uwenty-four
years old and lives with her parents in
Burlington, N. j. She is employed as
astenographerin Burlington and earns
$14 week. Edward Reynolds is
twenty-siX years old and is also a
stenographer, but his salary is only
$40 a week. He is employed by a
banking firm in Newark. where he re-
sides with his parents.
Tue difference eff 81 in weekly wage is
alone the stumbling block to their
immediate marriage. The parents of
both young people are we'll to do and
they sanction the companionship OF
tAeir children, but both objected be-
cause of the fact that Miss LIE Marie
earned more than her admirer. He
potested that prospects of promotion
We're eventually CERTAIN, but the pa
rents argued that promotion might be
remote.
Staunton spectator and vindicator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1896-1916, 1901-01-25
The Intention Not Fulfilled.

The ship subsidy bill is intended. ac-
cording to the claims of its advocates.
to promote the creation of an American
merchant marine, built in America,
owned in America, manned by Amer-
cans, and carrying American products.
1t will not do any of these things, and
the pretense that it will is hollow. A
large proportion of the ships to which
subsidies will go under the bill are, as
we have pointed out, to be foreign
built. None of the ships needs be own
ed entirely by Americans. There is no
adequate requirement that even frac-
tion of the crew need be Americans.
By far the larger part of the subsidies
will go to ships that do not and cannot
carry any considerable amount of
freight. 1t is as absolute and shame
less a piece of special legislation for
the benefit of small number of rich
persons at the expense of the treasury
and the taxpayers as was ever devised,
and it is decidedly worse than any
thing that has ever been undertaken by
cOngress.-New York Times
Staunton spectator and vindicator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1896-1916, 1901-01-25

ties for turning out vessels. Contracts
for mercantile craft alone on the At
lantic and Pacific coasts amount to
$30,000,OO0, and it is now almost a
certainty that more new tonnage will
go into the water under the American
flag in 1901 than in any previous year
in the history Of the country.
"The fact that America is building
ships for foreign governments, which
have had the world for market in
which to buy their ships, shows plain
ly that there is an advantage in our
favor on the first cost of the ship. The
fact that building and sailing American
ships in competition with the fleets of
the world has enabled few Americans
to pile up colossal fortunes shows that
we can operate the ships as cheaply
as the foreigners can operate their
craft.
'Of the grainships en- route to Port
land at the present time 25 fly the
German flag, while Great Britain, for
the first time in the history Of the port,
has dropped back to second place, with
but % ships. Over two-thirds of these
German ships were built and owned by
the British until a short time ago. AS
a matter of fact, half of them have
passed from the British to the German
flag within the past three years. No
subsidy was asked or needed when
Germany decided to increase her
merchant marine, but she said to her
subjects, Go forth into the markets of
the world and buy ships wherever you
can buy them the cheapest If Ameri-
can capital could have secured the
same permission from our government,
all of these ships which Great Britain
supplanted with steamers would not
now be flying the German flag."-Port-
land (Or.) Oregonian.
