The miracle is, therefore, not that

fect of denying protection to theso
manufacturing industries while they
were compelled to build their mills
and buy their labor In n protected

been to blot them from tho map. The
fact that so many as Stfl.000 tons of
unprotected American ocean shipping
remain afloat after fifty years Is
splendid proof of the business skill
and persistence of nurvlvlng Ameri

of our American rare for Its earliest

shipbuilding hnvo no haro In tho
present, they nro bound to have a
share, and a large one, In tho futuro
1 prosperity of, America. Our people,
hs tholr naval and mercantile history
llirocs, uro pre-eminently a sea-lnv-I
Ing and sen-ruling folk. On any
thing llko even terms they have dem
'onstrntcd tholr ability tn outsail and
jout-trndo th'o Ilrltlsh nnd Continental
nalOns. Tho people who have created
.In twenty yenis the second largest

jfor man undoubtedly the most effi
cient lighting navy In the world, can,
' If given n chance, produco n mcr
irhant fleet of like bIzc nnd cxccl
' lence.
I Thrco or four powerful causes aro
.now moving toward this end. Oao
Ms tho growing recognition of the
JMIddlo'West that It cannot decently
I ask protection for Its wool and hides
I and sugar and new manufacturing,
land at-tho snma time Join the solid
I South In denying protection to ocean
shipbuilding nnd navigation. Anoth
er factor Is tho growth of the navy
and Its demand for an adequate re
scrvo of auxiliary cruisers, transports
nml supply ships. Tho grotcsquo
spectacle of sixteen American armor
clads o;no)cd around tho world
nnd coaled from ono port-to another
by a nondescript crowd ot foreign
"trumps" has brought lis lesson oven
to tho farmers of the, Mississippi Val
ley. A third farlor working toward
tho creation of nn adequate Ameri
can merchant marine Is the widening
Interest In overseas trado nnd tho
need of foreign markets for the sur
plus products of many American In
dustries grown stiong under fifty
)cars ot protection.
Thcso factors aio reflected In tho
attitude of Congress. A few months
ago nn Importnnt ocean mall bill, for
tho encouragement of American ship
lines to South' America nml across tho
Pacific Ocean, passed the National
Senate without n division without
a Blnglo negative vote. Two or threo
years ago such a result ns this would
have been deemed Impossible. Tho
lenders of the Nntlunal House wished
to postpone action on this bill until
the short or coming Bosslon ot Con
gress, after tho Presidential elec
tion. Uut they finally consented tn
have It offered as an amendment to
the postofllcc appropriation bill. In
splto of antl-clcctlon nervousness nnd
tho "subsidy" bugaboo, still exploit
ed by foreign .steamship agents In the
Mlddlo West, this ocean mall bill
failed ot acceptance in the postofflcc
appropriation by only n narrow vote
of HG to 1G3 lacking but eight of
n majority.
In tho preceding Congress nn ocean
mall bill, narrower than this, was
oppo'ed by 22 per cent, of the He
publlcans of the House. This year
only IB per cent, of tho House Ile-
puhllcunu were tecorded ngalnst It.
All but-one of these men were from
tho Mlddlo West, nnd yet a majority
of the Hcprcsentntlvcs of somo of tho
greatest Mlddlo Wtstefd' States, no
tably Indiana, Illinois, and Nebras
ka, olcd for it.
President Roosevelt throughout
his executive career lias bcon a reso
lute champion of tho upbuilding of
the mcrchait marine. Judgo T.tft
is no less oitspokcn. In bis address
of acceptance Mr. Tuft specifically
urges tho iMissnRQ of tho pending
ocean mall bill as n "tentative" step
In the rlgbt direction. This meas
ure, already passed by tho Sonnto nnd
acquiring only tho approval of tho
House, will undoubtedly bo taken up
by tho Houso leaders enrly In tho
next Congressional session opening
In December. A gain of flvo votes
will gtvo It a majority. As between
tho previous trial of strength u year
ngo and tho test of last spring, tho
measure had made n gain of twenty
voles.
