Wednes lay, January 31 - ^800 THE SHiP SUBSIDY STEAL. The Diimcrat* ?houM make a moft vigorous figh' against the bil! to subsidize Americtn *hip<. It is likely that Uie D:Ji mil pa*e oecause n is in | the hands of H ;nna in the Senate and Pogae, of Near York, in the House, and the Republicans hare tbe power to pass it. Again it i< in tbe line ot aH^Kepttb!;can legislature. Th9 policy that party u*s been paierua), and to rob one class ~~aTThe tipenseof / another. This bill, when it becoiurs a lavr, will cost the people of she United States several hundred millions of UUU&re? CVCi V J Oa;. ao ps/iuivu vu? by the Memphis Commercial-App-V, it is worse tbau ihe tariff, because the hip bnilciers and owners will put their hands directly into the treasury and pall out the money. The Commercial-Appeal says* 'The time has coim when this measHre should be characterized as it deserves. It is nothing less than an infamous s'eal. The larceoy in a protective tariff is more or less concealed. i< is mere dj indirection." Bat a* it very truly adds: "The ship subsidy bill openly robs the treasury of the United Ststes in order to-hire certain persons lo em " bark in a particular business." The question then naturally occurs wby not pay th8 mechanic, the farmer and others far engaging in their particular business? The ship sub?idy bill will help the very class of people who least reqaire I help. Tt;eNe* York Journal gives j an iiei of who win oe oeneniea oy the following: There are tweoty-eighi, tank steamers now in the service of the Standard Oil Company or its subsidiary oil corporations which under this provision would be entitled to receive $555,030 64 a year, or $11,100,612.80 in the twenty years the contract would ha7e to run. Iu addition, the fleet of the International Navigation Companv, which is controlled by Siaudtrd Oil and the Pennsylvania railroad, would be subsidized to the ? ' extent of $2,53^691.08 a year, or $50, 595,32I.t>U for tae twenty years, aiow- i ing nothing for new vessels. These i vessels average over eighteen yean! ' old, and tbe oldest of them count* I \ (hirty-two yeira j The people will n">t derive one cent of benefit. Freight will not be any less. The protective tariff has not reduced the price of a tingle article, and there is no reason to believe a subsidy ?^? on ships will make freight less. The chances are that it will increase freight. GIVS THEIB NAMES. mrongn tne ixews ana courier, wo loam that Mr. William E. Curtis, th8 Washington correspondent of the Chicago Record, writes his paper that "there are * )>m' of fine looking yoang men on :1 e l-emocratic side of the Senate, particularly from the South," and that utbe old generation, wbe fongbt io the Confederacy, are gradually disappearing" and that ''it is a, singular fact that, although these yonrg- men have been ejected as Democrats and confess the creed of that party, their private views often differ materially from its principles.'' Mr. Cnrtis repeats that in answer to the question Irom him why he did not vot* the Republican ticket, this particularly "fine looking young man" replied: ^ ' "If you knew mv kin it would net *" be tecessary for "you to ssk that question. I come from a section of the coaniry where the Republican party, wltis & tew nonoraoie exceptions, is made ap ot dnreputf.ble white people sad ignorant, roisguid??l negroes, and it wonld be fafal to my social and political ambition as well as to my peace of mind if I shonld vote the same ticket tbat they do. If [ lived in New York I woa!d be a Republican. If my Republican friends in New York lived where I do they would be Democrats. It is simply a matter of environment." Commenting on thi3. the News and Courier say?. "We wish it were t-v /?rtmnpl Mr. (Turns to ffive the name of the Senator with whom he talked." So do we. r-i.V It is safe to say th&t, if each onfee' sIods hare been raada by the "fine '( looking yoanjf men" from the South, who are masquerading as Democrats when they are Republican* at heart, and tho confessions were prove.i, very few, if any of thea., would get back to the Senate. Such "fine looking youug men" have no manhood, and the fact that the type of manhood of the (Jonfederstcv ia gradually passing away is made sadder. Oae of the greatest beauties in tbe character of the Confederate soldier is bie deror tion to principles. The South will suffer irreparable loss it her public men have no care for principle. We publish to-day Mr. Jennings' ery interesting account of the battle of Chickamauga. By the way, Mr. JenniDg3 would maks a good member of the commission to locate the Soath Carolina monument, and we now sugj geat his name. He was a brave soldier, participated 5n this particular battle, and is especially fitted to fill the place.
