OCEAN MARINE HARD-SHELL
ALL DONE OUT.
KYJ.E SLEPT PRETTY WELL
Something Which Fres Traders Are
Respectfully Invited
to Crack.
American free traders unhesitatingly
assert that protection la the only ob-
stacle to the creation by the citizens of
the United States of an ocean marine.
They are never very clear as to the mode
In which the policy work* to prevent
such a consummation, but they usually
leave It to be Inferred that it'Is the high
price of the raw materials used In ship-
building which makes it Impossible for
us to "butt Into" the oversea carrying
trade. That this Is not the real obstacle
is easily demonstrated, says the San
FrancUco Chronicle. If high-priced raw
materials were a hindrance to the de-
velopment of a great, cheap and efficient
transportation system, the United States
would not have, as It admittedly has,
the best and most economical railway
service in the world.
in 1803 there were 207,604 miles of
railway operated In this country. The
rails and other steel used in their equip-
ment were almost wholly produced in
the United States, the iron and steel im-
ported in the early days before we had
built up a great rolling industry having
long since rusted and rotted. During
the time we were importing, however,
the free traders were unceasing in their
denunciation of a policy which they de-
clared impeded railroad development.
They were too short-sighted to see that
the erection of rolling mills and the
creation of a great steel and iron Indus-
try were helping to build up the country,
thus furnishing business to the railroad*
and assisting In bringing about that
prosperous condition which alone can
materially promote development.
Here is a statistical account of the re-'
suits produced by the alleged impedl
ments offered by protection to our rail-
way development. There were 207,604
miles of railway in 1903, employing
1,309.640 people in all departments,
whose combined wages and salaries in
the year mentioned amounted to $775,
000,000. in one form and another the
stupendous sum of $13,525,623,300 is in-
vested in these railways, and their gross
earnings in 1903 footed up $1,908,857,826.
The vast traffic of the roads required
1,634,332 freight and 28,648 passenger
cars, and they carried 696,908,994 passen-
gers one mile and 171,290,310,685 tons of
freight were moved one mile. But the
greatest achievement of all was the re-
duction under the protective system of
the average cost of moving a ton of
freight one mile from 1.99 cents in 1870
to .74 of a cent in 1903
In the face of such ad outcome it is
manifestly absurd to say that protection
has been a hindrance to transportation
development on land. Under its benefl
cent workings a railway system has
been created in this country which has
a carrying capacity greater than that of
all the ships of thCworld, and which
moves more freight than the letter,
and does it more cheaply than the rail-
ways of free-trade England perform a
like service for the people of that coun-
try. It is equally absurd to charge that
the high price of raw materials and pro-
tection generally are responsible for the
failure to develop ai? American oversea
carrying trade. The failure is due to
the opposite cause. The refusal to pre
tect American shipping against the com-
petition of Lascar labor at three dollar#
a month, and the almost equally cheap
labor of northern Europe explains why
we are not "in it" on the ocean. When
we recognize this fact we shall see the
American flag flying in all the ports of
the world, and later the cost of freight-
ing on the Ocean will, through Ameri-
can methods and ingenuity, be cheap-
ened as it has been on the land. If we
can. improve our railways under protec-
tion so as to make them beat those of the
rest of the world, what is to hinder us
from making an American shipping
system equally effective?
Literature ia Alaska.
A member of a government party
which journeyed through Alaska dur-
ing the Tanana rush was horrified at
the lack of entertainment and good lit-
erature available for the miners.
Doesn't St get dull here?" he asked of
an old prospector at Fairbanks. "What
do you do for amusement?" "Do?"
echoed the gray-haired prospector,
gravely. "Do? Why, bless you, we have
very genteel amusements. As for read-
in' an' literature an* all that, why, when
the fust grub comes in the spring we
have a meetin' an* call all the boys to-
gether an' app'int a chairman, an' then
some one reads the directions on the
labels of the bakln' powder cans."—

Protective Tariff Besulta.
Without a protective tariff It
would have been utterly impossible
for the silk industry of this country
U> have made the rapid progress it has,
and by the same method the wages of
the operatives In the silk mills of the
United States have been maintained at
B much higher standard than prevails
anywhere else. The rise of the silk
industry as a result of our protective
tariff system Is not a theory, but an
actual fact. It ia one of the numerous
lines of industry which has grown and
prospered under our tariff system and
>s a living witness against free-trade
lallawea.—Nashua (N. H.) Telegraph.
Veteran Joshua Heller, of '700 South
Walnut Street, Urbana, 111., say*: "In
the fall of 1899 after taking Deans
Kidney Pills I told
the readers of this
paper that they had
relieved me of kid-
ney trouble, dis-
posed of a lame
back with pain
across my loins and
beneath the shoul-
der blades. During
the interval which
has elapsed I have
had occasion to re-
sort to Doan's Kid-
ney Pills when I
noticed warnings of
an attack. On each
and every occasion the results obtained
were just as satisfactory as when the
pills were first brought to ray notice.
1 just as emphatically endorse the
preparation to-day as I did over two
years ago."

CONCERNING CHURCHES.
That there are 5,000 converts a year
to Catholicism in the diocese of New
\ork was stated in a public address-by
Archbishop Farley.
Archbishop Moeller, of Cincinnati,
has organized a choir of priests to ren-
der Gregorian music at the funeral of
all priests in his archdiocese.
Rev. Putnam Cady, pastor of Em-
manuel Presbyterian church, Amster-
dam, N. Y., has been chosen to fel-
lowship in the famous Royal Geo-
graphical Society of England, an honor
conferred on but few Americans.
Rev. John L. Scudder, pastor of the
First Congregational churcli in Jersey
City, now has the People's palace in
working order, though the place is not
yet completed. It is an adjunct to
his church, and contains a gymnasium,
dancing academy, bowling alleys, etc.,
the whole to cost about $300,000.
As a church cholc singifr Mrs. Fred-
erick B. Bushnell, of Dennlsville, N.
J., is believed to hold the record. At
75 years of age she is still a mem-
ber of the choir of the Methodist
church at Dennisville. Her connec-
tion with the organization has extend-
.ed through two decades and for a long
time she was the choir leader.
Miss Maude Hlxson, of Indianapolis:
who will within a short time become
assistant to Rev. Dr. Robert M. Rus-
sell, fcastor of the Sixth United Pres-
byterian church. Pittsburg, will be
the first woman to engage In like work
in that city. Miss Hixson has been
assistant to Rev. Frank R. Ballard, of
the Memorial church, Indianapolis, for
the last four years.
8ut the Drummers in Neighboring
Rooms Could Hot Say
as Muob.
Representative Kyle, of Ohio, has a
high, sweet tenor voice, and is known to
hi* colleagues a* "the rweet dinger from
Ohio." lie ia in great demand at din-
ners, where he kings old Scotch songs
melodiously, nay a a Wellington paper.
When he was out campaigning in his dis-
trict last fsll he arrived at n country ho-
tel where half a dozen drummers were to
I rot up for the night also. Kyle told tbe
andlord he wanted u quiet room where ho
could sleep undisturbed, as he was very
tired.
Next morning at breakfast the drum-
mers were protesting loudly because their
rest hod been disturbed by the snoring
of tbe man in room 16. They variously
described the snoring ns the worst they
had ever heard. Most of them said they
had not slept a wink.
"How did you sleep?" aiked one of the
drummers of Kyle.
"Fine," said Kyle; "never heard a thing
from the time I struck the lied until ihis
morning. I got a great night's rent."
"In heaven's nume, where did you
sleet) ?" asked the drummers.
"In room 10," Kyle replied. ...
