Our Proposed Merchant Marine

The law admitting foreign built ships to reg lsef under the American flag been effective for week. but they have not registered It was sun posed that many of the German ships engaged in trade would avail themselves of the law but the British and the French have protested against the acceptance of them of any other vessels of bel heerents. subject to seizure present and they have supported their protest by ancient and estab- iished precedent The protest also gees against the purchase by American fnanciers of ships of bellig erents and we suppose it applies, too to the pur- chase of vessels of beligerents by this government for the purpose of creating a government owned merchant marine.
 It is contended by France and Great Britain that this would be way of giving aid and comfort to bellgerent. For instance, the merchant ships of the Germans and the Austrians are now useless to those nations The protection that would be af- forded them by American registry would preserve them for, not immediate but future use to Ger many. The money that would be received for them Ii sold either to our government private Amer lcan citizens, would be of immediate the cti zens of those belligerents and indirectly, to the beligerents themselves.
 In 1908 the Declaration of London was adopted, providing in it's stipuations that the trans fer of an enemy vessel to neutral flag effected after the outbreak of hostites void unless it be proved that such transfer not made to evade the consequences to which an enemy vessel, such, is exposed" Another clause states: The onus of proving the transfer is genuine lies with the claim ant" The claimant is the owner, who would have to come before prize court in the of the seizure of his vessel and, in the circumstances of the seizure of a transferred German Austrian vessel the claimant would have uphill job prov ing that the transfer had not been made evade the consequences of
 So it is unlikely that any foreign ships can be transferred registered under new shipping laws It is said however, that there are available for service than 100 vessels of 5000 tons owned by Americans Nearly all of them fly foreign flags mostly British and German The Standard oil company owns dozen British steamships and still larger number of German ships The United Fruit company and W. R. Grace & Co. each has large number of ships, all flying the British flag Many of the ships of the Interna- tional Marine fleet all under British coors are owned by Americans.
 This is, therefore, the only from which this country could acquire merchant marine The cause the shipping laws of those nations offered them inducement to do In the case of the ships under British flag, inducement has not been removed Our shipping laws offer noth- ing appealing them They still safe under British registry. The German ships owned by Americans though might be expected to come under American registry, though the few American owned German vessels would find that to their advantage.
 We learn from this merchant marines are not created by strokes of pens

Violation of Neutrality

In spite of the desire of government that try one of contemporaries has just committed an act calculated to provoke hostile declaration against us by Great Britain It has printed large picture of Roberts and called it Lord Kitchener It s of course insult to either of these men to be mistaken the other. They the two greatest and most dolzed military leaders Great Britain has produced in two generations, and both are held in equal esteem by their countrymen They are as unlike in appearance two may we'll be. "Bobs" is diminutve and good natured of coun- tenance Kitchener is tall and anky, of rather for bidding mien whose trucuence is somewhat ac- centuated by long, flowing mustache. The insult which our contemporary has offered is not to one of these great men, but to both. It is in itself denial of their greatness.
 This and other contemporaries have also some thing to settle with Belgium which has troubles enough of it's own without being misrepresented in the pictorial departments of the newspapers of the United States, supposed neutral nation, friendly all and equally sympathetic with all.

Volcanoes

A volcano is mountain which is insurging against the universe.
 Most mountains quiet and well-behaved, mainng in the spot year after year and all lowing tourists and other insects them and among them without protest. But the volcano has a system of manners that is all its own. It is connected directly with the furnace room in the earth's interior and whenever it gets peevish dissatisfied with the government it erupts
