AWAY
or SAILING SHIPS
ARE QUICKLY DRIV-
ING THE OLD ROMANTIC YES
Sells OUT OF BUSINESS.

ST. JOHN, N. F., Nov. 30-The most
striking feature of marine architecture
in this century is the rapid decline in
the building of sailships and the SEEM
ing certainty of the gradual effa2s-
ment in the near future of this type
of craft from the outer seas, though 1t
may survive longer as coastwise car
rier. Especially is the passing of the
sailor true in the United States. III
1910, when steam as a marine accos-
sorry was unknown, the infant repub-
lie had 100, 900 tons more of foreign
going merchant shipping than she
possesses today. In 1888 her tonnage
exceeded Britain's. In 1880 she was
turning out the staunchest, speediest
and most useful sailers the world has
ever known, the famous Yankee clip
pers," of which the Baltimore tea car
riers were examples. In 1860 she still
was second, her tonnage aggregating
/ 100000, and she competed successful
ly with Britain, carrying 62 per cent
Of American produce, whereas today
she transports but per cent of it and
has little prospect of lettering the
proposition, since she has only TWEEN
ty large shipyards, though possessing
S0000,0O0 of people and 10000 miles of
coast, while Britain, with but half of
| the population and only 1000 miles OF
coast, has 100 shipyards of first rank.
The civil war was perhaps the chief
cause of the decline in American ship
ping, though subsidiary conditions

| At THE ORPHEUM

The last performance Of THE Mouth
Of the Cannon" is to be give ntonight
at the Orpheum Theater The play
pleased a good-sized audience last
night and the advance sale today as
sures a big attendance this evening.
Monday night Manager Cooley will
present Peaceful Valley" a beautiful
play Of rural life. In this play Sol
Smith Russell toured the United states
for years, and his name and that of
Peaceful Valley" are linked insep-
arably. Mr.. Cooley secured the right
to produce this play in the West sew
eral years ago and has been obliged
each year to reproduce It in many
places by popular request Following
Peaceful Valley" another strong and
beautiful play, entitled "Home, Sweet
Home" is to be given.

contributed not little to the same
end. When hostilities opened Ameri-
can shipowners sought to Legitimate
the transfer of their fotillas to for
eign flags, but congress refused and
they had to be sold outright, because
of the vesselmen's fear of the rebel
pTivateers. Between 1860 and 1865 10
fewer than 1000 bottoms built in the
single port of Bath, Me, and aggre-
eating over 100000 tons, were so dis
posed of, and many another New Eng
land port could tell similar story.
These immense fleets were never re-
placed, because foreigners secured con-
troll of American commerce while the
war waged and after it terminated the
reunited people turned their whole en-
ergies to developing their great west
and to solving the problem of inland
access which this involved.
In like manner the discovery of
petroleum sounded the knell Of a
whaling fleet which in 1850 numbered
702 vessels and aggregated 331, 4OG
tons and today comprises but forty
vessels of 1861 tons.
The substitution of iron for wood in
ship building and the many advan-
tages it was seen to possess; the re-
placing of the paddle wheel by the
propeller and the adoption of recip.
rocating engines, with their conse.
quent economies of space aud coal and
the opening thereby of new avenues
Of usefulness to steamers as freight.

lEIOll / ne OOuulg btdGOu.l
1t is with sincere pleasure that the
Democrats welcome as prominent a
citizen of the Territory as Link Nc
Candless is and has been to the ranks
of the Democratic party Any man
who has Link McCandless' convictions
in regard to immigration and disposl-
ton of public lands is a candidate ell
gible for admission to full fellowship
in the Democratic party, for the issue
of public lands and immigration, from
the standpoint Of the Democratic par
ty, is the issue in Hawaii nei besides
which all else becomes comparatively
trivial.
The definition on the mainland of a
Democrat IS one who, in the National
election, votes for the Democratic
nominee for President That is the
supreme test of Democracy, and for
that matter, Of Republication too, to-
wit, the vote cast for the Presidential
nominee. In the same way the divid-
ing line between the Democratic party
and the Republican party in Hawaii
can well turn on the convictions the
voter has in regard to immigration
and the public lands. If a voter be-
lieves that the question of immigra-
ton should be taken in hand by the
Territorial government, that immi-
grants should be aided, rot merely to
come here, but after they have come
here that they should be aided in Sc
curing land, building houses and fem
ces, and otherwise equipping them
selves to make a living, and that the
public lands should be devoted first
and foremost to these issues-every
available acre of them-that man is a
good Democrat provided he will insist
that his candidates not only take the
foregoing position on the stump and
in their talk, but that they vote their
convictions and insist on prompt and
efficient measres to legalize these sem
timents and put them in actual work
ing condition.
Our Republican friends everlastingly
talk in favor of citizen immigration
and what should be done for the citi-
zen immigrant, but it is a case with
them of being long on talk and delay
and short on action. They have been
in control of this Territory now for
years and we seem no nearer any prac-
tical solution of the situation than we
did when they first took office. The
q ~. l.. 4, -,
terests of their leaders lie, or they
think they lie, in other directions.
Their hearts are not in it.

PROSPERITY INEVITABLE
By Henry Clews.

The country is suffering just now
from some business excesses based up
on the last several years of our great
throughout the United
States. The basis of this has been the
excellence OF our crops. We cannot
now be very far from bottom. Very
soon we will find the winter of our dis
content made glorious summer by our
own inherent prosperity. High prices
prevail in Europe. The Continent
must have our surplus crops and manu-
features This years crops are not as
large as might have been expected but
they will produce more in dollars and
cents. They aggregate in all seven
billions Of dollars. How can this coun-
try remain very long in the dumps
with such a showing? Here is
Europe only too anxious to take our
surplus, with money to pay for It..
These things that spring from the
ground represent real money, some
thing actually created from nothing. A
good crop Is not speculation or wild cat
financierlng. 1t represents real money
We know the numerical power of the
farming interests in this country
