WE NEED SAILORS.

The other day q nI"nbrr ni lh" SraIIr Cllanri,rr of Cnmmrrcr appeared brfnrr senate com- miitre in protest against the passage of Inc Wilson bill, say ing that il would wipe American shipping from the seas.
 By adopting the provision of he Panama Canal law admitting tn American register funriGn built ships owned by Americans con- SreSS has entered upon a new policy with relation in Inc mrr- chant marine. IL enables Us io buy ships at inc same price as foreigners pay. But conditions will not hr ruualizrd until we have also rqualiZrd the cost of operation and have adopted l F. islation which will provide our merchant ships with an ample supply of skilled SranIrn.
 Decay of the American llrrrlI- ant marin" has been Iwofnld. Nui only our ships, but our men. have abandoned the sea. We have provided for the restoration of our flag to the sea on ships own- cd by Americans, which will be- come a valuable auxiliary Lo our navy. But We ned men tu man these Sh1pS--S skilled men, Amer jeans filled with patriotic pride. who will be available as recruits Tor the navy. SD long as the laws governing SranIrn are such as to cause Americans to Shun ihe sea OF such as to man our ships with the nifScullringS of our ports and lO degrade these men tn the condition of prunS we rannni have skilled srarnrn. We cannot have patriotic Americans in our merchant marine.
 Now that WI are again turning our attention in foreign ruin- mrrce W" must Tempt m.'n back in tn" sea by lifIi in" them from fh" condition of Srrr~ ln that of frerm"n. by aS~iIrin" them wagr> which accord with the general American standard. by rslabIiSh- ing d standard of skill which shall place them nn par with other skilled mechanics. by pro- Viding for reasonable rOmfurI. cleanliness and rest on hoard ship.
 These rriurInS are provided in inc Wilson bill which has passed lh" House and HOW rrpnsrS in a Senate committee. This bill abnliShrS tn" right ln impriSun American sailors in foreign port = or foreign sailors in American pnriS as a punishment for de- s"riinm. \ sailor will thus be made freeman. If men of any other class violate q contract tn render service. their employers have only a civil remedy. \ Sai- Tor alone can hr imprisoned for such all ari as though Il were a crime.
 The prison penalty is retained for iny "r ,disobcdiencr or assault on officers while a ship is al sra, where loss of th~ ship OF of the other mons lives may he inc consequence. But when inc ship iS safe in harbOr, her crew is put nn an equality with tle.Oihpr men by Inc Wilson bill.
 This bill would rchabilitatc tho sailors craft. would place Amer ican and foreign ships on more nearly equal terms and would grcutly enhance the safety of life at sea. IIs general provisions have been indorscd by both Re- publican and Democratic plat forms and it should become law at this session of congress-.

either leaving home. The queen OF
Holland consented to their marriage

Though marriage by proxy is not

legal steps have been taken to bring

doubt the immigration people will
recognize 1t when the bride arrives In
America
When Mozes Pimentel strolled into
the once of Charles c. Dasey. acting
CONSUL of Holland. and said he
wished to be married by proxy. Mr..
Dasey did not believe 1t could be done.
However, on the insistence Of the Hol-
lander he sent a statement Of the sit
uation to the consul general at New
York.
The ceremony Of acquiring q bride
without being present at the ceremony
as gone through with Pimentel Is as

Just what happened was explained
by Mounted Policeman Haley. who
had been pursuing Degener's car for a
half mile. When Haley got to the
scene he found the car standing on its
hind legs and pointing straight up on
the side Of q pine tree. The engines
were still humming away. Degener,s
friend was sprawled out on the road.
but Degener was not in sight.
Where's the fellow that was driv-
ing?" asked Haley.
"Blest II l know" said the friend.
Here am. up here" said a voice
from the branches.
1t proved to be Degener. He had
been tossed into the branches six feet
overhead.

Harry was a faithful servant OF q
large cotton planter whom he called.
after the manner Of slavery days,
M'Sam (Marse Sam). At stated In
tervals Harry was wont to get glori'
ously drunk; and one night in the fall,
after q day in town, the mules hitched
to his wagon drew up before the lot
Of the plantation, with Harry pros
trate and snoring in the bottom OF the
wagon. Here one of his numerous
progeny, a boy named Job, discovered
him, and unable to awaken his father
or to secure any assistance from Har-
rvs disguised wife, be appealed to the
planter, who had the mules unhitched'
covered Harry with blanket and with
his own hands dragged the wagon un'
der a shed.
Next morning Harry woke hazily
and sat up, rubbing his eyes. "Job!
he cried aloud: ''hurrah here, Job"
and when Job had come under the
shed, How come ! here?"
Job sulkily explained how 1t had
happened.
/. did MSam pull me under here?
asked Harry in dismay. "Gret Lordy
