And after all that smooth scheme to

of a few favored shipping lines has
been blocked by Democrats in the SEN
ate. who refused to be party 20 the
game. Under whip and spur the bill
was railroaded through the house by a
narrow margin in spite of the oppose
ton of a number of Republicans whose
constituents look with disfavoT on do

dent, the speaker OF the house and the
New England members put on the pres

Then came Mr.. Carmack and some
others. who began to make speeches.
They were in position TO keep the SEN
ate in session until adjournment if
they had to in order to compel the
withdrawal of the obnoxious bill They
discussed spelling authorities and de-
finitions. they had fun of all sorts while
the shipping grafters wiggled and
writhed helplessly. Sunday. as it was,
they refused to be good. which
meant in Republican parlanee to let
the graft become a law. Finally the
friends of the bill gave it up. and there
viii be no ship subsidy emanating
from this session.
Possibly the practice of competing
nations in substituting shipping may
compel this country TO adopt some form
of the system, but it will not be the
sort of subsidy the Republicans
planned to pass this time, nor will IL
be adopted by any such questionable
methods as characterized this bill. II
Will not be sprung hurriedly at the
close of the session and put through
without opportunity for extended dis
eussion. 1t will not be designed for the
benefit of a few favored corporations
nor will it be arranged to establish
more firmly corporations already pos

If any plan is adopted it viii bt
