It was a large «nd distinguished assemblage thai was present to hear and judge the jrottng speakers aa they each fought valiantly far the honor of his alma mater. The query for debate was: "Resolved, That our gwuuiuuit j should not subsidize oar merchant j marine." The affirmative was supported by Johns Hopkins' representatives, who were Messrs. Solomon Blum, 'O3, and H. W. Plaggemeyer, 'O3. while Carolina championed the negative, Messrs. S. S. Bobbins, *O3, and R. O. Everett, 'O3, being the debaters. The judges decided in favor of Carolina. All the speakers acquitted them selves well, and many warm words of congratulation were showered on both the victors and vanquisbed. Mr. R. O. Everett closed for Carolina with the following strong argument: "The American people constitute only 18 per cent, of the world's population, yet they produce 25 cent of all the raw material, and 33 per cent.of the manufactured goods, or in other words, one-third the annual product ion must be disposed of in foreign markets. Is the con dition of our marine adequate to the demands ? "Our marine is dead. The American flajj has been swept from the oceans. In 1861, oar marine was one of the greatest in the world, earring 80 per cent of American commerce. To-day it is ooe of the puniest in the world and carries but 8.2 per cent, of American com merce. On the ooe hand, the American people have the problem of disposing of the greatest surplus that ever confronted any people, and upon the wise disposal of this surplus depends our happiness and future development. On the other hand the marine, the pat "gent for disposing of this surplus, is in a more decrepit conditions than ever before— 92 per cent, of this surplus must seek an outlet through channels gauged and regulated by our competitors. "The cost and dangers to which the American people are daily ex posed. as the result of those discor dant conditions is manifiest: "I. The annual payment of Jyxi.ooo.ooo to foreigners in heights ami fares. "2. The check to onr comnper cial development, in the hew mark • ets, due to the greater cost and longer time of transporting Amei)- c-au products. All the great ship lines converge at a few European putU. which necessitates the ship ment of our mails antl products 1a triangular routes to all other than Kuropcau countries —to the South Ameiican trade, our products must be taken by Liverpool. It is thus in the new market where our inter ests are neglected. Yet, future de velopment must be in these very 1 markets. • "3. The present condition threat ens with annihilation our piOEtper ity—Bo per cent, of American com merce is carried by three nations, an'l in case of wa. among these powers, the results to our commerce would be disastrous. •"The fact that we liave % vital coir.mcieial interests in the world's markets, forces us iuto the arena as a world political power. The commercial iuterest* cannot be pro tcctcd, unless there is political power tieliiiid and to have this puli Ileal power, at a time w hen sea power is national power, requires a marine,as its l>asis of naval strength But lierc our marine is inadequate as demonstrated in the war with Spain, when our officials had to ignore all neutrality laws, in order to secure transports. "These four conditions create an immediate demand lor a marine: "Now, the causes which have led to the present conditions are threefolJ. (1.) The 25 per cent. com of European ships. (2.) The jo per cent, cheaper cost of operat ing European ships. (3.) The foreign governmental subsidies. These three advantages hare a:ad* Europe the focus of the world's ship lines, and given Eu ropean marines an intrenched mono poly in the carrying trade of na tions. These forces, which have destroyed our marine, were in oper ation before 1861, but the marine was then firmly established. When the war ended 49 per cent, of the marine had been destroyed and new conditions were to Le raced; the iron steamer had wplawd the wooden dipper The transition had been so abrupt, we were again in the position of beginner*. The government Bid uot again give aid. and the marine was steadily de clined 10 rtir prostrate condition of. *66. and every indication points to i.s complete desti action. Against that condition every American in stinct of independence and progress revolt, {Something must be done. "The logical thing is goreia mental aid, and the only question ». 'What shall betheformat ajd?' "There are only two method*, (t.) Discriminative duties. (I.) 'Subsidies. Thirty-three interna liinaal treaties make the iut in |aai lhafih The a the be uiuat, and thus flan the American citizens oa iquililj with foreigners. This is sn that is aeces sarjr. We have the Mitral and labor; the capital readv to invert, and the demand, with these dements requisite, to btroar a mnitimi power, apply the sabmdy to ofcet the foreign advantages, and the marine will soon be establiaed where! it can take care of itself. j "You srfll no looger then hear the | cry of overproduction of Mttos in the South, or wheat in the West, but, as we produce for a world l market, as we manufacture far a world market, our ship lines, radi ating to aO quarters of the circnm ference. wfll transport this material to the world's markets."

Considerable comment hat been cat:led la political and nii-al cirri a of Wukingtog bjr puklica cation in tbe New York Sn of an attack upon President Rooaeveltlur his coarse against tbe trusts. Be ginning with tbe assertion tbat tbe President was above all other things a pobtican, and was bending every effort to obtain a nomination tbe editorial proceeded to say tbat Mr. Roosevelt bad, ia bis attacks apon wealtb. exceeded tbe wild st threats of populism. The attack a used tbe adminis tration Republican politician* of the capital to'gasp, for they were not on the inside of tbe game and they thought it meant war on Roosevelt and tbe administration Irum the combined caf ital and Wall street interests and also was an tbe Republican party after the aomi tions next year- They did not kuow that it was a part of the play by the tariff interests to Stare Roosev. It and »top any further at tack on the trusts by bis adminis tration. Although bis assaults s far on tbe trusts have beep popgun attacks and have not in the least . injured them, yet the trusts wart him to let them severely alooe and do nothing that will in any way at t act attention to them whether they are hurt or not. In order to do this they ate tiylrg to frighten him and his friends. fo far tbe at la ks of the administration on the trusts have been confined to tbe beef trust and to the North rn Se curities merger. To shoe that ncthiiig has been effective of good to the public it is only necessary to remind tl-e peop'e that the Northern >ecuii ies merger decision has been so mod.tii d tli-t they are still en a bled to pay dividends to the stock •■older® and the l>e* f trust, after paying some tines. has advanced he price of meats from $1 to per too pounds and tbe public w II have I) pay the fines ia the aad. Whether or not these ' feeble" at tacks on the trusts cease there is! no disposition on the part of the illegal trusts to support a Demo I cratec ticket. The Washington Star, j a republican org-a. gave that snap away « hen. in speaking of this at tack of the New York Son on Roosevelt and the pom ibtbty af the financial interests of the East pre ferring a conservative Democrat to another tern of Rooaeve t sal I ; • The »!y trouble would be that tbe election of a Democratic presi dent might carry the election of a Democratic 1 loose anl so-ne Demo cratic state legislator a.

The importance of the inrestigatioa is eridcaflf appreciated, hat hi soaae quartern there is a lack of infbrma ! iw a* to the origin of the investi gation. A number of papers hare staW that the Interstate Commerce r naahdw set itself in motion at the iaataace of United States At torr-General Knox. That is an at traordinary misapprehension of the sitnatwa. the truth is that the in restigatioa is being held becaase ; Attorney-General Knox coanld not |be indacad to take action against | the Coal Trust on precisely the saam evidence that is now in coarse of being made public at the sessions of the Commission. On Octofer 4 last. Representa tive Wil iaK Randolph Hearst in foraed Mr. Roosevelt by open letter that he had petitioned the Attorney General tor permission to supply the latter with Documentary Evi dence of the existence of the Coal Tnwt. in older that he, Mr. Knox, ■sight he enabled to proceed against it Car Ha disruption under Federal lav. A few days subsequently Mr. Hearst was formally requested by Mr. Knox to submit his prooh to United States Attorney Burnett far the Southern District of New York, who would report thereon to the Department of Justice. Mr. Hearst placed General Bur nett in possession of evidence which established the facts that the coal carrying railroads are in illegal combination for the suppression of competition in mining, for the arbf tary regulation of supply, and the fixing of prices. Attorney-General Knox received Mr. Hearst's proofs, with General Burnett's report upon the same, but neither brought suit against the Coal Trust nor gave Mr. Hearst's evidence publicity. Last winter a number of United 1 States Senators endeavored to com pel Mr. Knox to reveal the nature of the evidence transmitted to him, but their efforts failed. t..e Attorney General's friends in the Senate, tak ing the ground that to force him to disdo e the case against the Coal Tinft might interfere with his plans for prosecuting it. Aud this ground was taken without any apparent humorous intention. Representative Hearst appealed b the Interstate Commerce Com mission to grant him a hearing. The Commission complied with his request, and Mr. Hearst, as the sole complainant against the Coal Treat is. 1 y att rney. now expos ing in New York the methods and practices of the monopoly which cursed the community with the prolonged miners' strike of la»t s mmcr and brought on the fuel fanzine—to its own profit and the public sloes When this inquiry is ended, the people of the Uailed States will have been made so thoroughly fa miliar with the devices of the Coal Tfwst and their unlawfulness that legal action should be taken for its Mr. Baar and parceners in the conl monopoly are not engaged in a legitimate busiaess enterprise, but a criminal conspiracy.
