The Idea OF direct subsidy Is a
bugbear. Ever since the days when
the Poland committee unearthed so
much chicanery In connection with the
Pacific mail subsidy mail scheme some
80 years ago subsidy bills have been
tabooed and the warmest friends OF
the subsidy plan of aiding American
shipping interests have come TO the
conclusion that some other scheme is
necessary. II Is hardly likely now that
any legislation of this character can
be enacted during the present session
or Congress but there IN a growing
belief that If anything is done towards
aiding In the rehabilitation of the
American Merchant Marine by Con-
gress it will come in the form OF CON
cessions In the way of tariff reduction
or else In the imposition of tonnage
taxes upon foreign ships. from which
American vessels will be free.

the result OF visit Of that official TO

that they wished to be Christians and

Great Damage Caused to the Cuban
Tobacco Crop.

Great Damage Caused to the Cuban |
Tobacco Crop.
The American charge de affairs at
Havana has reported to the State De-
partment that the tobacco crop Of the
finest regions in Cuba is almost total
loss, says the Washington Star. The
destruction Is the result Of tOrrential
rains, which will reduce the yield from
469, ,32S bales, the figures of 1905, to
less than 100000 bales for 1906. This
amount will in all probability be still
further reduced, as the acreage this
year Is smaller than that Of the pre-
vious crop.
The effect of the torrential rains has
been to blight the seedlings, and the
next crop will be almost fiat fall
ure. As it takes at least ITO days from
the planting of the seed to the cutting
Of the mature leaf, there will be a
long interval of distress and short
age
The government has received appeals
| for aid from many quarters, and pro-
poses a series Of public works which
will give some relief to the workmen
thrown out Of employment and will
tend to control the rivers in case of
future floods and heavy rains.
The shortage in the supply Of the
tobacco leaf which is now assured will
affect prices to a considerable degree
The market already has been strongly
influenced, and a corresponding rise In
the price of cigars must inevitably fol
low. The American smoking public
will feel the increase in price before
the foreigner, owing to the fact that
the American consumer prefers the
green" cigar, while the Englishman
German and Frenchman place higher
value on the seasoned" cigar. In Eng
land and Germany it is possible, con
sequently, to keep on hand large stocks
Of cigars. The American importer pre-
fers a much smaller stock because Of
the fact that he has superior and more
numerous advantages for obtaining new
supplies of the weed in short time
Furthermore, the enormous import dut.
on cigars undoubtedly operates strong
ly in discouraging the American i'm
porter of limited capital fromN laying
in a large stock of cigars.

Alfred Bunker Of Boston has become
famous, not because he has been a
schoolmaster forty-seven years, but be-
cause he has whipped 524 pupils Of the
Quincy school during the last half year
of 1905. The school board has declared
that it was not necessary to whip a
single child, and Bunker Is facing Il
crisis. His pupils are hard set, being
largely Poles, Italians, Syrians, Arme-
mans and Jews, and the district is,
of course, illlterate. Consequently, the
pupils of the Quincy school were with.
out home influence for betterment.
Their educating influences began when
they came into the school and ended
when they left 1t. Moreover, 1t was
peculiarly difficult to understand their
natures. The duty devolved upon the
principal and staff Of the Quincy
school, first, to get close to these chill
dren of foreign birth or foreign parent
age next, to keep them in order; next
to teach them the rudlments of knowl
edge.
