Gus during the week at which resolu-

adopted denouncing the niggardly pol
Icy Of Congress toward waterways in
general and urging the importance Of
survey for deepening the channel Of
the Delaware River to 35 feet. Rep
resentatives from practically every
quarter of the country also have ap-
peared before the Committee to press
general schemes for particular i'm
provement. This activity has i'm
pressed Congress with the remarkable
interest being developed in the gene

business expansion in the light of a
conscious advance to monarchy is the
general opinion here, but 1t Is evident
that this movement is hardly what he
takes it to be. To the argument that
the federal government exercises pow
ers unthought of fifty years ago is
adduced the answer that the corpora
ton was also unthought of then. The
activities of the federal government
find their excuse in the fact that the
various States which have tried to
solve the latter-day business problem
the regulation of corporations have
often been particularly unhappy in
their attempts, and in consequence
have often passed such extreme laws
as to harm themselves seriously. 1t
has already been demonstrated that a
state cannot solve the trust problem
merely by passing extreme laws dur
ing excitement, while it has been
shown that such action offers the best
way of hurting the business commun-
ity. Meanwhile there are many who
believe that States should refrain from
such divergent and dangerous laws,
and that the solution is to be found by
the Federal government. That Mr..
Clemens calls monarchy is here being
labelled merely adoption to new busi-
ness conditions.

Good Jobs in the NAVY.

United states navy must be manned
and their crews must be trained.
While it is generally known that the
navy offers excellent opportunities

absolutely necessary to be appointed
to the naval academy in order to
reach commissioned rank.
The present training service is a
consolidation of the old landsman

excellent results. Now all men with
