The only change from iast year’s Sermte ‘Dili is trat the substitute or substitutes hold office through the whole term. Mr. Evart's made his det in the Senate by an hour's speech in favor of the bill. A large audicuce paid hhu the tribate of strict attention. ‘The bill now goes to the House, where its chance of antagonized in that chamber by two or three rival measures, particularly by one fathered by ‘Mr. Randall, providing for the election of a temporary President by the electoral coliege. It is quite possible, too, that the new feature of the bill providing for ihe retention of the cabi- net substitutes til! the next regular election, ‘will find less favor in the House than in the Senate. ‘The decision Mr. Edmunds arrived at to ‘Withboid his electoral count bill as an amend- ment simplifies the situation and greatly im- proves the prospects of the succession bill. Had the two measures been linked together, ‘their future in the House would have been very @abious. ————- Commissioner Patten does well to call atten- tion, tn his report as head of the new bureau of navigation, to the fact that the United States ranks next to Great Britain in shipping. It is such @ favorite theme of eroaicers that the American flag has disappeared from the ocean ‘that it is useful to remember that this lament holds good only with respect to foreign trade. Our coast-wise and river commerce is of enor- mous proportions, and according to Commis sioner Patten it is in a flourishing condition from a business standpoint, while ocean com- merce notoriously fs not. Quite possibly it muy be an appreciation of this latter fact which bas much to do with the indifference of Ameri- can shippers to the prostration of onr foreign trade, It appears from Commissioner Patten's re- Port that our merchant navy consists ot 6.284 Sea-going sailing vessels and 355 steamers; and as all these vessels are by law built at home it cannot be said that we have forgotten the art of Ship-building. Where we are deficient is in a | special type of iron steamships. excels us and excels the world. Shipbuilding, like other industries, reflects ‘the national spirit and the national needs. The scattered colonies aad dependencies of Great Britain require her to be 2 zreat maritime Here England power. The United States has no sach obl tions and studiously avoids a forelzn policy of aa¥ kind.
