THE PRESIDENT AND THE SUBSIDY.

The presidents address to congress on the sub
ject of ship subsidy legislation lacked nothing in
clearness and directness. Confined to the single
subject for dealing with which congress was assem-
bled two weeks in advance Of the usual time, the
address sets forth in a single and f~orceful manner
the reasons for which the proposed aid for shipping
is desired. Gyr
At the outset the president makes it plain that
the question before congress is not that of under
taking new policies involving large new expendi-
lures, but of dealing with an. existing situation
which is now costing the American people in cold
cash at the rate of $50, 900, 900 a year. The govern
n1ent owns some six millions tons of merchant
shipping, of which one-third is in commission. The
operation OF that one-third involves a loss of 81
100000 month, without allowance for repairs. re-
placement or depreciation. The tonnage not in
commission is depreciating at a more rapid rate
than that IN use, so that at the present rate of going
we shall be spending $50, 0OO,O 900 a year in deficits
on our shipping operations until all that immense
amount OF shipping is worn out or drops to pieces.
The question is not whether or not to do some
thing about shipping, but what to do. We have the
ships. They have cost a lot of money to build. It is
costing lot tor the government to operate them. 1t
is proposed that the government shall sell the ships
that It has, as they can be disposed of to advantage,
that i shall help to make the sale possible BY pro-
viding terms which will make the operation of the
vessels fa'rly attractive to private capital, and that
#1or such purpose we shall spend, not the $50, OO0,-
900 annually which operation Of one-third Of the
fleet IS now costing us, but 4 p1aximurn 81 about
6o per cent Of that sun, for ten years. BY doing
sthatsswe shall save about half our present outlay
and insure the maintenance under the American
flag ct the finest merchant fleet ahoat.
q Is, tos the advantage Of the American produc-
SefyS sspecitically sof the American farmer, that the
world shall be literally supplied with merchant
siippings Ocean freight rates cut a large figure in
sths marketing Of our products abroad. The more
ships there ars, the keenes will be the competition

THE FIRST WOMAN SENATOR.

1t would have been a disappointment to many
thousands Of people if a way could not have been
found for Mrs. FELTON, to take her seat as the United
States senator from Georgia, and the first woman
ever to be seated in the upper house of congress.
If there was any slight irregularity in the seat
ing of Georgia's woman senator. nobody will cavil
at the action. The senate is the judge of the quail
tications of its own members, and no, senator OBJ
jected to this courtesy being extended.
When Mrs. FELTON, was appointed to succeed
the late Senator Watson it was not expected that
she would actually serve. The election was only a
few weeks off, and there would be no session of the
senate in the meantime But the appointment was
made by the governor of Georgia as a tribute to the
wife of a dear friend and to the womanhood Of the
state and nation. 1t is not necessary to seek for a
practical" value in the act. Practical or not, the
appointment and admission of the first woman sen
ator had a real value as an act of gracious courtesy,
and as. a reminder Of some of the fine things that
we cannot afford to lose.
