BLIND INSISTENCE. The administration ®appears to be as determined o put through that piece of legislation known as the ship- ping bill as it was to enact the sea- men’s bill, regardless of the pitfalls and the mistakes which have been re- vealed in the latter. In spite of the fact that a number of amendments have been made to the measure as at first drawn in or- der to dispose of some of the opposi- tion . which has arisen and for the purpose of correcting some of the de- fects which have been pointed out and which cannot fail to be recog- nized, even?though the alterations have served.to change the character of the legislation to a marked degree, the insistence upon the passage’ of the bill does not abate. With the amendments agreed to Te- stricting the purchase of vessels, and ng upon every effort being made lease the vessels acquired under provisions of the bill before the government attempts to operate such itself it must be realized that it is long time before there hips which the govern- it acquire which could be accompiishing the relief is sought by the bill, and if sistance cannot be rendered in overcoming the shortage the legisla- tion mi 11 remain unpassed. What is needed is more encourage- for capital to invest in the con- 'tion of more ships. A great have been built and others are for this very purpos ng provided to meet the created by the war, but it ed that some considera- emerger is to follow the declaration of if the same amount of ef- ination was given to manifested in bebhalf little or no relief, i ch continues to ouse strong opposition, great- vice would be rendered to ship- d the country the need obile agric t the building mproved ro: much encourage- The arri nan subma of no om - the inyolved, it bein its kind to cr se new the task of mair Claims were made in the such an accomplishment w pessible, and there was no reas doubt it possible to get p the enem: 1ips, and with the a vantage which such underwater hoats have, it has now been shown that the advocate an idea w no that been rine has been the boasts ¢1 limits of a annot be denie: which is due it for the demon which it has made.

LACK OF UNIFORM LAWS. Attention is frequently ected to the need of uniform legislation in the several states of the country. This is ragnifested in many directions as the instances where one statc permits aets which its neighbor prohibits come to light ard it has gotten so tha where it is impo: le to carry cne’s desires in his own common- wealth immediate steps are taken to find out how far it would be neces- sary to travel to find a state where there is greater laxity in legislation. This is often the se regarding marriage and divorce. The practice of incorporating enterprises in certain states because of the increased ad- vantages which can be obtained is algo familiar, but the probaling of the will of Mrs. Hetty Green at Bellows Falls, . Vt,.shows how carefully stud- fed isithe effort to get around the provision of the inheritance tax laws. Afrs.
