, comparison between the American Presi.
| dent of stainless life and the French King
of unspeakable depravity, but MS between
the spectacle of Roosevelt prone under
the knee of Oxnard asking in vain for
leave to do justice, and King Louis abas-
ing himself and justice under the feet of
Du Barry, | am not quite sure that the
lapse of a century and half proves any
very substantial moral progress
obviously the pressing duty of patri-
otism, the first requirement of national
decency, is to rescue this government from
the control of the Oxnards. and restore
it to e control of its constitutional de.
pository. And this is the task to which
the Democratic hosts are summoned by
patriotism and party royalty"
The Ship Subsidy Bill reaches it's full
development and dscards and disdains
any pretense of moral justification for
opening the Treasury doors. The argu-
ment in favor of it, if it can be under
stood at all. is that the business of ocean
transportation is highly profitable and be.
cause it is highly profitable therefore the
losses of citizens engaged in il should he
borne by the government / do nor as
sumo to understand this logic | repeat it
only to marvel at it. 1t is assumed that
after these losses continue for a certain
time and reach certain figure-in some
way or other they becme suddenly meta
morphosed into profits, the method of the
change being too occult for comprehension
by the ordinary intellect.
OF course, the only excuse for a sub
sidy is that t e business would not nav
on it's merits. But if it be advisable 70
encourage people to engage in losing
business, willy wouldn't it be still more
profitable business?
If they are to be paid for building
ships and running them at loss, why
shouldn't other men be paid still more
for engaging in agriculture and mining
which are conducted at profit. And if
those engaged in mining and agriculture
should be subsidized. why not those en-
gagged in plumbing and plastering? Why
in fact, is it necessary to frame any ex-
cuse for seizing the public funds? Why
sufficient excuse for looting it? And in.
deed, there is strong reason to fear that
one more success at the polls will be
treated by Republican politicians as a
license, if not an invitation to unlimited
plumber Have we not seen enormous
sums devoted for recouping losses in
CURED in private ventures, and if it be ad-
missible to repair losses from the public
treasury, what reason is there for refus-
ing to pay profits from the same source?
imperialism has already worked for
such decentralization that public opinion
remains Indifferent to the most prohigate
expenditures. Congress which had an
propriated billion awakened the furious
condemnation of the country a few years
ago. Now billion is appropriated at
single session without protest and almost
without notice."
