Old Sailing Vessels in Service.

writer boasts that New York is
in no danger Of losing its lead in the
maritime field and submits the evil
dence that every pier and anchorage
IN the harbor is occupied by vessels
OF every description. II is significant
that SO great has been the demand
for drydock facilities that ships are
held up for several days at time
awaiting berths where their needs can
be attended to. Fier facilities are also
taxed to their utmost with freight
awaiting shipment and many Of the
vessels wait for days before they can
find dock to take on and unload
their cargoes.
One of the surprising features aside
from the great number of ships now
in port is the presence Of sailing ves-
sells Of every type, and apparently Of
every age. Full rugged ships, barks,
barkentines and schooners, which for
many years have been out Of commits
sion, have been pressed into service
to carry their share Of cargo at the
prevailing high freight rates. An
chored off the Statue Of Liberty and
Staten Island are SO ships including
"a tramps and nine sailing vessels.
Among the latter are two which have
just returned from delivering a cargo
Of cotton to Bremen, Germany. After
reloading with a similar cargo they
will sail for Archangel, Russia. When
1t Is considered that the new steam
ships of the Russian-American line
take 20 days to make this trip, the
difficulties Of the sailing vessels may
be better appreciated. Their course
will lie north Of Iceland in the Arctic
Ocean. 1t will be the first in many
years that sailing vessels flying the
Stars and Stripes will have been seen
in these waters. Shipping men esti-
mate that the value Of the cargoes at
present in port is greater than has
ever been assembled at any one time
heretofore.
This ought to set the administra-
ton to revising it's government owned
shipping notions.

Editorial Comment
Bath Doesn't Like It.
(pn.l


Bath shipping men are greatly aef-
tated over the prospect Of having no
shipping commissioner here after the
first day of next month. The blame
is laid at the door of CONGRESSMAN
McGillicuddy. Congress failed to
make an appropriation for the salary
of the local commissioner. and the
department of Commerce for that rea
son contempiates allowing the office
to lapse, although in the case of Rock
land, under similar conditions, the
department has made the opposite de-
clslon-to continue the Office and pay
the salary from the contingent fund.
MI. Morse, the Bath commissioner. is
an extremely efficient official, and the
oiflce itself is indispensable. Dur
asking is, why the commissionership
furnished crews to a total of 1900 men,
ana as the Department credits to each
office one dollar for every seaman fur
nlshed. and as the salary Of the Bath
commissioner is $1,000 and the ex-
penses Of his Office only about $275
additional, it will be seen that the
office is not only an important one
but that it is self-supporting. The
question that Bath shipping men are
asking is, why the commissionership
should be abolished in a port with
the amount of shipping Bath has,
while. under exactly similar condi-
tons, the office is being continued in
New Bedford, where there is practi-
cally nothing for the commissioner
to do. and in Rockland, where the
business is, We believe, considerably
less than in Bath. The Bath pro-
test to the Department brought the
reply that the matter should be
taken up through the Congressman,
which the shipping men seem to
think will be about as effective as
taking it up with a craven image. It
is felt that had the Congressman
been doing his duty, matter of so
great Importance to his constituents
would not have escaped him.

mo Time to Talk Politics."

This is no time to talk politics"
shout Democratic leaders who desire
10 use the foreign situation to eyade
discussion OF bad legislation and
worse administration. Then these
same leaders proceed to send a circu-
lar letter to local party managers ask
ing for a report on public sentiment
toward President Wilson and his
policies. Possibly some few Republic
cans will be deluded into the notion
that this administration is above TAX
ing partisan advantage of every Incl
dent and situation, but the number OF
those thus deceived will be small.
This is undoubtedly the psychological
moment to sound public opinion Of the
Wilson administration for sympathy
has overshadowed judgment and tenn
pered criticism. And Democratic lead
ers are crafty enough to turn it TO
partisan advantage.

brought to him a sense of what the
country wanted him to say. 1t was
