COMPULSORY PILOTAGE. v..--.; qfc con- yz rnMMEnriai ? life of dissipation fes - rT" rrL-T,!.-- - Cbngress is to tackle tlie question of pilotage at this session if the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries can get; up to the point of making a-report-on ahill introduced by Representative Littjefield, of Maine, His bill is; one to take into the hands of the Federal government the regu--la'tion ' of all ports, with the specific purpose of abolishing compulsory pilot age as" now maintained by some States. S principally in the South. ' Naturally ' '''f there Is opposition to the Littlefield bill, but whether it is serious opposi tion we do not know. However, the 'S':::-New York Journal .of Commerce is moved to say this about it: "Opposition' in the - House Commit tee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries to the bill abolishing compulsory pi lotage for coastwise i vessels, which has thus far prevented a favorable re port, comes almost wholly from South ern members. t JWhy one member from New York should aid this -opposition is a mystery, for the pilotage require ment of certain South Atlantic States works seriously, against the interests of Northern vessels trading with their ports. , The:: only argument of arty foree against the bill is that abolition of the pilotage requirements establish-. ed by State laws should be left to the States and not sought from the Feder al Government. . But this has very little force, for . there is ."no question about the jurisdiction of Congress in the matter, and several States refuse to grant relief.; Formerly all immi gration as: well as quarantine regula tions were left Jo the States, but for sufficient. reasons - the - regulation ' Of immigration has been taken over en tirely by the Federal Government "and a certain degree of national quaran tine regulation has , been established and more ultimately will be. - - it nas been sufficiently - demon strated that compelling sailing wea sels to take local pilots at . the ports along our coast Is a heavy burden up on them and entirely unnecessary, where the masters themselves are competent pilots, as this bill requires mem. to be. Care r for the vessels would induce them to take pilots where they were not sufficiently famil iar with the waters or safe in entering the ports unaided. There is no reas on or excuse for the compulsion It is maintained at" these. Southern ports. not . because it is believed to be nec essary or useful, but because the ves sels come mostly fronf-the North '"and it gives employment and fees to a class of men who would lose much of their occupation . If --the , requirement should be abolished. . It is a tax upon coastwise ; trade for the benefit of small class of men whose service in most cases is not needed. Such oppo sition as.- is . made tathe littlefield bill is worthy of no serious considefra tion, and If ft is strong enough in the ;. committee to prevent a report the matter should be taken out of its hands and disposed of without a re port. Perhaps If the . Senate wcmld pass the Frye bill it might help the matter in the other" chamber. - This ; question, has been dealt with in a pe"tty -.way at former sessions and it is time to do something." '.;.-'" Wilmington is one of the Southern , ports which has no compulsory pilot age. "A system of compulsory pilotage : was once maintained here but the com- mercial community prevailed upon the ; Legislature to make Wilmington a free . port for coastwise "vessels. We are not prepared to say which has saved the most by It the ship owners or the local shippers but the "ship owners seem to fee the happiest over it. We ; hardly think it fair, however, to say that Southern ports maintain compul - sory'pilotage to squeeze something out of the" ship owners because they are 'Northern. That gives it a sectional .' tinge, and we see no reason why it should be put on that , ground than to say that the New England ship 'own . ers want, to do away with compulsory pilotage' because it is more or less a - Southern system at present. The ques tion is whether compulsory pilotage, is to the. advantage or ; disadvantage" of -." tb respective ports, whether the ships come from the North, the South, the East or the. West. . Wilmington decid: ed, that it would be to the advantage of the port to abolish compulsory pi lotage, putting it up. to the skippers to voluntarily take a pilot or not as , they choose. It is quite evident, how ever, that the ship -owners think free pilotage is to their advantage, ,f or they are backing the Littlefield bill for all . they are worth. That it is a Federal question we have no doubt, for all the States are dependent on the" ports, "both as to wise regulation of commerce and efficient quarantine. " - the Narrow escape GRESS, - The- American - Protective Tariff League held Its 25th annual meeting in New York on Friday. It was con spicuous . for the fact that the atten dance represented men who are reap ing the benefits of protection; and for the absence of consumers who pay the freight That accounts for the fact that this was one of the similar sec tions of the resolutions adopted: "Resolved, That the country is to be congratulated upon the failure of the 'Tariff Reform" element to force upon Congress a revision of the exist ing -tariff schedules, and upon the pros pect .that tariff revision is not likely to be undertaken for some time to come." Well, now, here I Thoy congratu lated the country when they were just chuckling all 'over with self-gratula- tions that" they are permitted Jo still sit in the game, with the stand pat ters.. But please catcli. jon- to the ex pression of great relief that Congress had such a. narrow escape from force at the hands of some five or six of the tariff reform element!" Gee, but it was a close call for Congress! WILMINGTON MARKET. (Quoted officially at-the closing by the Chamber ot Commerce.) STAR OFFICE, Jan. 22, 1905. SPIRITS TURPENTINE Market, nothing doing.

May Concern: Of late there has been a good deal of discuBslonii n. regard to advertised medicines, their value and power to cure. 'T want to say to the people of Wil mington that I believe the most valua ble cod liver oil preparation, the best body-builder, health restorer, and strength creator, known to medicine to-day is VinoL "While Vinol does not contain the system-clogging "oil of old-fashioned cod liver oil and emulsions, it actual ly does contain all the curative, medi cinal, principles of. the cod's liver in a highly . cencentrated form, and it is delicious to take. . v "I advise Vinol in my practice, and find it has no equal for healing coughs, colds, bronchial troubles and sore lungs. . -"I have used Vinol in many cases of indigestion, mal-asslmilation, and Tor patients who were anaemic and run down, with splendid results. I have found Vinol to be a. boon to the aged, as it aids the enfeebled system to sus tain life; it Induces appetite, and rest ful sleep, it Is a real body-builder, and thus prolongs life. n"I believe Vinol to be well worthy of any honest physician's endorsement," .Our local druggist, Jtobert R. Bel lamy, sells Vinol to the people of Wil mington, on a,. positive guarantee? if it fails to give satisfaction the entire purchase-money will be refunded.
