solve the problem, and do not readily
see It's solution We know that the
coastwise navigation laws have not
built up an American marine, and we
do not believe that mere subsidy
will do it. | believe that we are ard
ent and CONSTANT protectionists. We
know that that policy has made the
United States the most prosperous
and richest country on this earth, and
we believe that the genius of our peo-
pie and institutions will solve success
fully the very grave problems of The
trust, monopolies and kindred eXcres.
cences which are largely results Of
protection, in a manner which will
equally benefit all the people
Cannot Compete.
But we well know that when the
theories of protection are extended
into regions where we do not control,
they will not apply. We know that
no amount of legislation can make a
high priced ship, manned by 2 high
priced crew, carrying high priced ma
chinery, and provided with high priced
supplies, compete successfully with
cheap ships, crews, machinery and
supplies. Some other plan than any
yet proposed will have to be devised
before we see the fondly desired res.
toration of an American marine Till
then Americans will not invest their
money where they are certain to lose
it, and such refusal is not unpa-
triotic.
Narrowing Americans.
Till that restoration comes, it is un.
just and an unwarrantable exercise OF
despotic power to maroon American
citizens, as well as all others, on de
tached portions of our empire, on the
claim that by so doing something is
being done to restore the flag of oul
country to the seas.
We do not fail to recognize the ser
vices to Hawaii done by Mr. Kahn, anC
all join in hearty appreciation of anC
thanks for these signal services, bu
we trust he will recognize equally oul
right to differ from him on this very
important question of national policy

the paper was tinted delicate blue. or
the envelopes were lined with vivid blue

Now the blue bird must take second
place, for chantecler holds the centre OF
the stage. Among the stationery novelties
for which Rostand's play is responsible
are things both startling and beautiful.
