by them. The highest grade steam
ers-making 81 knots an hour or over
draw 2.7 cents per mile. From this
ii grades down to 14-knot steamers,
which draw Is cents a mile. Practi-
cally all of those vessels are now own
ed by J. p. Morgan's big trust.
?. The original bill provided for the
admission of foreign-built vessels to
American REGISTRY. e., to permit
them to sail as American ships, under
the American flag, when owned by
Americans-on conditions that the
owners had an equal amount of ton
mage built in the United States within
ten years. This provision is removed
from the present bill. thereby retain
ing the fun exclusion of foreign built
vessels from American registry, which
has been the chief cause of the de-
cline of the American marine.
3. The total amount to be paid out
in subsidies was limited in the origi-
nal bill to s9.OOO.OOO a year. That pro-
vision has been removed. Senator
Frye claims that the subsidy will
amount TO only $500, 900 a year, but
the removal of the limit, and the de-
feat of Senator Allison's amendment
to limit the mail subsidy to $S,O00,O00
a year, show that the purpose to loot
the treasury is unlimited. The eX-
penses saddled on the government if
this bill is passed will be enormous. 80
The measure will benefit nobody
but the stockholders of the Morgan
ship trust, and means simply the max
ing of an enormous donation to
steamship lines that are making large
profits now. 1t was passed on argu-
ments of larger cost of building ships
in this country. and larger costs of
operation that are rank false
pretense. The voters have a very
direct interest in this matter,
and they should see that the question
is discussed.

The Ship Subsidy Grab Again.

The indianapolis Sentinel has APP
pealed in vain to Senator'S Beveridge
and Fairbanks to explain and defend
their votes on the ship subsidy steal.
1t is evident they do not mean to do
so. The republican newspapers re-
fuse to discuss the question. The re-
publican candidates for congress like
wise decline to discuss the measure,
or to state how they will vote on it.
Yet this is a pressing current issue.
The bill has passed the senate and will
be voted on by the house at the next
session. 1t will certainly be passed
by republican votes unless they are
pledged against it now. \ vote for a
republican who will not pledge him
self against the ship subsidy steal is n
vote for the ship subsidy steal.
This measure has been before con-
gress in one form or another since De-
cember, 1898, when it was introduced
by Senator Mark Hanna, who is him
self interested in the shipbuilding
business in the ship-own-
ing also he knows. but the public is
not informed. The bill has been
amended in several respects, but. like
republican amendments of the tariff.
the more you amend it the worse IT
gets. As the bill finally passed it was
worse in three principal features than
the original bill, as follows:
1. The original bill provided that
the subsidy should be paid only to
vessels that carried cargo to the
amount of so per cent of its capacity.
The object of this was to make the
money go to the freight vessels, and
not mere passenger ships, because the
proposition was to ''build up the
merchant marine" or. in other words,
the ocean carrying trade. Under the
present bill the subsidy can be drawn
by the fast ocean steamers and only

land, and imported into the United
States, was dutiabIe at the Russian
rates, although England imposed no
duties on petroleum. On, Oct. 6,
1902, it was announced that the Stan
dard Oil company had taken advant-
age of the coal famine and had in
creased the price of oil from s to So
cents per gallon at New York. 1t can
now put the price TO 10 cents, if It
likes, without meeting competition
from abroad.
But the 'nigger in the fence" i'm
this change probably lies i'm the re-
taliation club, which it gives our trust
in its fight with the Russian combine
Heretofore there has been an al
lance. offensive and defensive, be
tween the Standard Oil trust and the
Russian trust. They divided up the
world and each agreed to keep off the
others territory. The Standard Oil
company has lately been getting ag-
gressive and intruding on the Russian
trusts territory. even i'll Russia
itself, so it is said. Foreseeino trou-
BILE and big fight ahead. our trust
wished to be forearmed with n reci-
MISREPRESENTATION protection club.
Now. if the Russians raise their duty
to keep the Standard Oil company out.
they will. automatically. raise our
duties to keep Russian oil out of this
country.
Besides. should the Christian
gentlemen" i'm our oil trust be suffici-
emily trusted by the Almighty so that
He would give them absolute control
of the petroleum mines here, they
might sometime wish to charge us 20
cents per gallon for oil where they
now charge only or 10 cents. 1t is
always well for the trust to have Il
little surplus protection in store for
possible emergencies.
Thus doth the busy, greedy trust
Improve each golden hour,
And gather money all the day
With congress in its power.

Secretary of the Navy Moody has
earned the everlasting regard of the
republican party. The duty on hard

BREAD DYSPEPSIA.
White Bread Makes Trouble With
Some People.

White Bread Makes Trouble With
Some People.
Loading UP with white bread and
starchy cereals is quite sure to ultf
mately bring on some disorder of the
bowels, and is frequently the cause OF
appendicitis.
The starches are not digested in the
upper stomach. but are treated in the
duodenum and from there on down
thru the whole length of the bowels.
Consequently if too much starchy food
is used, particularly white bread, trou-
BILE Is likely to set up. White bread
does not contain the diastatic prin-
ciples which nature placed in the
wheat berry to help digest starch, but
the white flour miller leaves that part
out.
Grape Nuts Breakfast Food was
perfected purposely, to supply the
starch of the cereals and the other
parts intended by nature for use, and
presents them to the body in a form
that will easily be digested. In fact
they are predigested by natural
means during the process of the man
ufacture, so that one can get all the
energy and value from that sort of
food without overlooking the organs.
A man from Brantford Ont, says:
For the first twenty years of my life
| lived out of doors, then | took up my
present employment, which is indoors,
and requires the exercise of the brain
rather than the body.
Gradually a languid feeling took
lit do IT,
to dyspepsia. and later into constipa-
tion. These conditions continued for
several years in spite of pills and lax
atives without number. After a time
began to suffer from great lack of
vitality and from time to time with
cramps in the bowels which usually
laid ME up for three or four days.
Finally the physician discovered that
1 was on the point of appendicitis.
After one of these severe attacks,
about six months ago, neighbor
brought In part of a package of Grape
Nuts to try, and 1 noticed good re-
suits from the first, and have con
tinued to use the Food in place of
white bread and cereals I formerly
used.
II have gained considerably in
weight. feel much better than / have
in years, my complexion has cleared
up, digestion is good. and 1 have not
had a cramp since starting; but more
important than all else, notice a dis
tinct clearness of mind sustained by
an ENERGY and nerve force that
have not known before.
Il have learned an exceedingly val
liable lesson in living and will not,
load myself down with food
too much bulk to supply
sufficient amount of nourishment as
used to, This lesson In moderation In

food is worth everything to me-"
