THE MARINE RECORD. 7 Ti A writer tothe Marine Journal, writing from Chicago with regard to our alien laws relating to commerce and lake traffic, a aub- ject at present interesting vo all marine men, Bays: “There is an old saying that sauce for the goose is also sauce for the gander. Now, for several years the captains, pilots and en- gineers, since they have become organized along the lakes and rivers bordering on the . shores of Canada, have been trying to get a Jaw passed to make all persons holding Uni- ted States licenses and employed on Ameri- ‘ean waters to live in the United States. “The reason we asked it is because we find about twenty per cent. of all licensed officers are men that live in Canada. ‘They sail one season, in any under capacity, on an Ameri- -can vessel, such as oiling, tiring,., wheeling, watching, etc. tention to become citizens, and get their li- -cense, but they never move here or become ‘citizens. In tact, they live, vote (when home) and own property in Canada. ‘They never buy a cent’s worth on this side, when they can help it. ‘Their taxes and their liv- ing come cheaper to them than to us. We ‘want them on the same plane with us. “Now, is there anything unjust in our de- mands? Yet we were defeated, believe, three times before Congress with just such a bill. Who defexted us? ‘The steamboat owners along the borders of Canada. But, behold you, the tables have turned, Up'to the present season it was always, supposed a Canada boat could not carry passengers between Americnxn ports, but our friends on the other side have found a weak pdintin -our law, and do carry passengers on certain routes between Atmerican ports. And what do we sce? -cun steamboat owners set up a terrible how], and declare they can’t compete with those boats because everything is cheaper on the other side. ‘Their ox is now gored, not ours, and they will come before Congress. at the next session to have the law amended. “IT say it behooves every captain, pilotand -engineer, that holds a license and lives on the American side, no matter to what part -ef the United States, whether it be Maine or Oregon, or any other point, to see their Con- -ressmen before they leave for Washington next fall, and see that they don’t vote for | the owners’ bill unless ours is with it Let ‘the cry be: There is no injustice in the demand. Both bills shonld-be:passed without a dissenting voice. Now, letall see toit, no matter whether organized or not. It is a duty we owe. one another. I would like to hear others speak on the subject. ——— - Wheie-are the fragments of the boy who “burst iuto teara?’’—Spur. ‘This for the late wet weather. : $$$ ___— Fruits of the seas-on—Wrecks. ‘Cutting up shines’’—-The worker in precious stones.
