From Oar Regnlai Correspondent. T.herp iu very little doubt th next st'Hsion of ('ongrenu will Hi e ihe jMiSH.ige of a Ship SuOHiMy Bill. Que of 4 h e Mtrongi'Ht indication in this line haw come from t be . Betja ion of the Trans Micpixsppi CongiHHH before wliifh Seen tnr.y Root hut just delivered a nc table addresH, in which he upoke urgently In favor of th hhipping subsidy as Ihe onf.tliin? essential to build up the trMde of the United' Slate with South America, This i the first tima thitthe adaiinitttratioti has ever come out pquarely in favor of such a bill. There i a bill now pending' before Congress that is Paid to meet the re quirementaof .the. cise, and it is interesting to Bee just what the appropriation will involve. This bill is designed primarily to help the mail Hteamship service, but it will of course furnish a a ries of meamebip lines by which A ipericHn pjoods can safely ami regularly ibe transported a broad. It will involve the ex pendUure.in.the first year of $1', 709. 500 for mail service and ultimately an expendi ture of f2 982,000 per an num. The ehips to eiirn Jihis larger subsidy do not now exist in the United States, but it in believed thnttoearn the bonus they will be built. The' various lines, thnt it is proposed to establish are a bout as folio wk: : To Brazil, 14 knpts month ly steamer service, $150,000 fnrtniirhtiv service $300 000 To the Arisen line' Republic, U knots steamers, ?1S7,000 sulisidy for monthly service and $375,000 lor a fortnight ly sen ice: ' To South Africa, 1hesam amount for a line ofl2)kiiots steamers. Gulf ports to Rrrtiil, a 12 knot line at, $137,500 nnd a fortnightly service at ?27;- 000 There is provided a $75- 000 subsidy for 'lines from the Southern states to Cuba ami the same fromGulf ports to Central America, The Gulf ports to Mexico, $50,Q00 would be invested in on a 12 knot weekly service, To Hawaii, Japan, China and the Philippines, 16 knot steamers at $500,000 for a monthly service and $000 000 for a fornnightly ser vice. A Jine is provided f r o m Paget Sound to Jupan China and the Philippines at $210 000 for a monthly service. Provision is also made for services to Hawaii, the Sorn- oan Islands,' Australia, the west ooast of Mexico and to west Central A m e r 1 v u n ports. ' . It is seen that I hit program U both'exteneive and-expen Rive, but Secretary Root held in his speech" that it .would be a Davinc investment. The Committee on .Resolutions of theConRresH dii not go so far as to etrnightwny en dore the subsidy bill prop osition, but. it Q'd endorse VmiMinir tin of the Ameri- pan ' Merchant Marine; and suirgcsted. t h 1 t S-i'rf-tary KUKiC nTTJ . v - -7--.- 1- , . , , ionic llouthad proposed the prop-bpek tot-ongresa niter o&"igt. er plan. Those who have looked for ward to immediate and im mense activity from the In terstate Commerce eommis sion in turning the rnilrondn of the country upside diwn. mve been disa ppoihted up to date and will continue to be disappointed for some time to come. The Commis- sion has not been able to touch a single ruts since the Rate Bill whs paused and the commission enlarged. There hue been a flood of other work, the interpretation of the new rate rules, nnd the prosecution of vnrious inqui ries into cqivI, olU grain inl whnt not, that have prevent ed them Ir iui giving any 11 1 lention so far to actual rate mnking. The Gniin Elevator investigation ona whh'h th Join mission is now engaged promises to.keepit employed r severnl months, and there is an immense amount of the coal and oil field yet to he covered without trenchingon n similar investigation thnt itvnow being carnel on by he Bureau of Corporations. For the first time in rfhe history of the country since the n'gro ha had a vote, thnt vote has been prett,r well split up, and th'dr prom ises to be an interesting time in the next election, if the ex citement should last thai long, over the support that Secretary Taft .has wen a mong the. negro element through holding up, for a time at least, the President's order discharging three com panies of the 25th Iniantry. It is quite possible that, like Iv Kiolings "bander-log' the colored voters will have forgotten all about the inci dent bv thefimethenextcam naign comes around, But there is thenaking of a fine political row in the situation were.it .not .knowh that the President and Secretary Taft are su'h elose personal friends, ' In'this connection it may he interesting to quote the views of a New ork politici an who knows both Presi dent Roosevelt and Secreta ry Taft very well, The dis cussion had turned on the perennial question of a third term, and he had this to say in the matter. '-You may talk all you want about a third term for PreBid'nt "Roosevelt, but I Inpperi to.know.that hedoes not want it, that hehas noiu mated Secretary Taft as his political heir, and that whpn he comes hack 1o Washing ton it will be a S ma tor from the State ot New York. If you onlv stop to think seven vears and a half hOhe While House is about enough for any mun, even ror sum a 1 glutt on for work as the Presi dent. There is more meiita and physical strain involved in the lob than any ordinary ruan can hold up under. The position of S-natoi, on the other hand, is comparatively restlul and Immensely power ful when there is a big man holding down the Job.' The President would ' have t h e excellent precedentBofJAdams and of Johnson.in coming ovimr I he White House, and there is not theslightest doubt that he could not only belSenatorfrom New York but ... I coukl rem Jin sucn lor twenty vears if he so desired.
