*t> THE MARINE RECORD. A wrlior to tho Marino Journal, writing 'from Chicago with rogard to our alien laws relating to eommeroo and lake trnfllc, n sub- joot at proBOtit Interesting to all marine men, says: - *> "Thoro |s an old saylpg that/Banco for tho gooBO Is also sauco fot tho^gauder. Now, for Bovoral years tho captain', pilots'and en¬ gineers, since they have become organized along the lakes irnd rlvors bordorlug on tho qhorcs of Canada, havo boon trying to got a HIIIITIIH ,11 V/ll|„,viii, ....T~----------,.---n - — ■law passed to make all persons holding Unl tod Statos licenses and employed on Amerl •can waters to live In tho United Slates. "Tho ronton we asked It Is because wo find , about twenty per cent, of all licensed officers T..flg aro mon that live In Canada. They sail one I ' uo8» season, In any under capacity, on an Ameri¬ can vessel, such ns oiling, llrlng, wheeling, watching, etc. They then doclate their In¬ tention to becomo cttizopB, and got tholr li¬ cense, but thov nover inovo hero or become oltlzoiis. In titer, they live, vote (whon home) mid own property In Canada. They never buy a cent's worth on thla side whon they can help it.. Their taxiw and tholr liv¬ ing onmo cheaper to them than to us. We want thorn on the same piano with ub. "Now, Is there anything unjust lu our de¬ mands? Yet wo were (Wealed, I belluve, three times before Congrest, wl'.h just such a bill. Who dofoated ub? Tho steamboat ownors along tho borders of Canada. But, bohold you, tho tables have turned, Up to the present season it was always supposed a Canada boat could not carry passougers between Amorlcau ports, but our friends on tho other side havo found a weak point In -our law, and do carry paasongerB on certain routes between Ameilcan pons. And what do we see? Why," n number ot the Ameri¬ can steamboat owners set up a teirlble howl, and declaro they can't compete with those boats because everything Is cheaper on the -other side. Their ox is now goieil, not ours, and they will come boforo Congrest at the next aosalon to have the law amended. "I Bay it behooves every captain, pilotand engineer, Unit Holds a license and Uvea on the American Bide, no matter to what part cf tho United States, whother It be Maine or Oregon, or any other point, to see their Con¬ gressmen before thoy leave for Washington noxt fall, and boo that they don't vote for the ownein'bill unless ours is with it Let tho cry bo: 'Holy us and wo will help you.' Thoro Is no injustice In the demand. Both bills should be passed without a dissenting voice. Now., let all seo to It, no matter whcthei organized or not. It is a duty wo owe one another. I would like to hear others spoak on the subject. -Wheie are the fragments of the boy who ^'burst Into learsV"—Aipiti. This accounts for the late wet weathci. Fruits ol the seiis-un—Wrecks.
