All the proposed amendments; to the State constitution are important and are needed, but particularly so, is the one that will remove from the jurisdiction of the State law-makers the usual amount of local bills that has a habit of glutting the wheels of the legislative session, to the injury of the State in general and, general ly, to the hurt of many individual communities. -. The legislators need more time tp consider State-wide measures , and the people need less time for them to consider local legislation. Adjoption, of this amendment will remove an other menace; just as did the Feder al amendment that provides for the. election of , Senators at the polls. Men will be elected to the legislature for their general ability, courage and broad-mindedness, and not simply be cause they may vote a certain way on some local proposition, wiich, in the melee of . local politics, likes and dis likes; rises superior to all other ques tions. In the past so fixed had become nage of American shipping and in the value of goods .carried under the Am erjeaq. flag, - as compared : with- other nations, is shown in the report of the Department of. Commerce for July and the seven, months ending- in July Merchandise carried in American bot toms advanced 'pseto $196,449,000 to ?340,0OO,000 "for seven months, a gain of approximately SO per cent. "While this percentage expansion is large, the total , value of the goods does not com pare favorably with shipments in Brit ish vessels, which increased for the period from $1,006,211,000 to $1,410, 378,000, or about 41 per cent. ''The total worth of . goods carried in foreign vessels advanced from $1,- 549,579,000 to $2,214,828,000 for seven months, a gain of about 44 per cent. This expansion was distributed among the merchant marines of the various countries as follows: Trade in Dutch ships decreased for the seven months from $73,990,000 to $71,607,000; French vessels carried goods at an advance from $97,343,000 to $134,417,000, a gain of about 37 per cent; shipping in Ger man and Austrian vessels was prac tically at a standstill, only $484,000 being recorded during the year, which was in the month of July on the sub marine Deutschland; exports in Itali an ships increased from $55,994,000 to? $79,408,000. "Exports in Japanese ships record ed the largest percentage gain for the seven months, with an advance from $29,497,000 to $114,697,000, or more than 4&Q per cent. The increase for July alone was not so marked, being, from $6,648,000 to ,$16,066,000, or around 150 per. cent - "Figures made public by the De partment of Commerce on the net tonnage cleared from American ports for' th seven months' period shows that only in clearings for North Am erican ports, chiefly Canada on the Great Lakes, was the total larger than that of foreign vessels. American tonnage cleared for other North Am erica, for seven months of 1915 was $6,486,000, as compared with 6,142,000 of foreign ships. For the seven months of 1916 the figures for Amer ican tonnage had- increased to 8,150, 000, while foreign tonnage had mount ed Only to 6,622,000."

This is vital, especially to the South Atlantic States; important, as it means more trade through the ports to the interior. Thus bothoast and inland will . be developed. This im pending expansion of trade must also acr s " an incentive for the people of South Atlantic ports to take stock; to study conditions and requirements, so that they may be prepared to go after projects, further business , and be in shape to handle it. Opening the Panama Canal meant bigv business for 'the South Atlantic coast, while the European war his so altered conditions as to "bring this, to a focus quicker and so shift trade as to make a re-adjustment necessary.

The same can. be said about South" and Central Ameri can countries while the exportation of cotton to "Japan is evidently going tQ plajr an important part. It is gratifying that the new com pany, as mentioned above, will include Wilmington in its list of trade-ports. But this will not be the only one.
