American Shipping.
Our commerce in American bot
toms amounts to but nine per cent of
our total exports and imports. For
forty years prior to 1861, when the
republican party came into power, our
merchant marine carried an average
OF eighty per cent of our foreign com
merce. By 1877 it had dwindled to
tw~enty-seven per cent. Now We carry
but a contemptibly small fraction of
our exports and imports.
American shipping in the foreign
rade was greaer by almos n hun
dred thousand tons in 1S1O-nearly a
hundred years ago-than il was last
year. In the fact of the continuous
decline in the record of American
shipping during the last forty-three
years. the promise of the republican
party to restore il is without encour
agement. The record of the democrat,
lie party gives assurance that the
task can be more wisely entrusted to
it.
1t is an arduous task to
undo the effect of forty years
of d%ecadence, and require;
the study and investigation OF
those best fitted by experience to find
the remedy-which surely does not lie
