CONTROLLED % per cent of American trade
He recalled that plank had been put
IN the St Louis platform in favor of the
legislation he proposed.
This bilI.' said Senator Ell1ins. was
defeated largely on the ground that it
was said to interfere with foreign
treaties. I do not believe that it does
so interfere.
May Be Terminated.
These treaties have been in force,
some of them for a hundred years, and
most of them are simply commercial
conventions and can be terminated at
sears notice.
Mr. President, We are powerful on
land, but on the sea we are impotent.
We carry or Z per cent of our trade
81 our own vessels. Foreigners carry 80
per cent. In some of the greatest ports
OF Ire world, the American flag has not
been seen for ten years. We pay S5O0000
a day to foreign countries TO carry our
goods for US. Why not take hold Of
this matter vigorously and restore our
merchant marine? We had control OF
the sea once and why should we not re-
gain it?"
Senator Elkins pointed ont that this
was a chance to revise the tariff down.

Without subsidy.
Root for Referring It.
Senator Root held that. the amendment
ought to be referred to some committee
as it opened up such grave questions
with respect TO relations with other
nations that it should not be disposed
of at this tine.
Senator Aldrich refused to accept the
amendment and Senator Elkins served
notice that he would introduce a bill
on the subject next winter and ask its
difference TO the Committee on Com
anerce; also that he would do all pos
sible to secure the legislation at that
time.

War Against Tuberculosis

E. w. Bartol, superintendent of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company,
called upon the JOURNAL one day this
week, and, speaking of his company S
War Upon Consumption, said that
1.-The National Association for the Study

placed at the disposal of the Metropoli-
tan Company list of Sduntoriu, Tnber-
r"iosis Hospitals, Dispensaries and anti,

ment NAV be had.
What is the Company doing locally? 2"
asked the JOURNAL.
Mr. Through the local repre-
sentative, Arthur T. Johnson, we are
distributing i'll and around Frostburg
several thousand copies of Il pamphlet
entitled "a War Upon Consumption
a work which contains valuable informa
ton treating on the nature of the disease
as well as its prevention and cure. The
company'S offer presents wonderful
opportunity for those who are in need of
treatment for this disease"
JOURNAL-"What can the JOURNAL do
to help you:
Mr.. BurtoI-"PubliSh this interview
and bring to my notice any cases where
the Company can assist the patients as
outlined i'll the pamphlet"
JoURNAL-"It is to the interest, of
course, of your Company to prolong the
life of its policyholders, but just how
far is your praiseworthy effort designed
to reach? ~
Mr. Bartoi-"The Metropolitan is ex.
pending large sum of money in this
fight against Consumption-as we'll as
for the general betterment of social con
ditions, and in its effort it enjoys the
hearty cooperation of the Health Of

together with the organized charitable
agencies all over the country. Further
information on the subject can be OBJ
tanned at the Company's office, either in

The JOURNAL has read the pamphlet

undoubted value to all who are afflicted
with tuberculosis, and through these to
the community at large.
