This suggests that the actual participation of Americans in the ocean-carrying trade of the world is not to be estimated by the frequency or infrequency with which the Stars and Stripes are to be met on the ocean.

The submarine, for economic reasons, promises less for the future in the way of peaceful service, notwithstanding the exploits of the Deutschland in the ocean-carrying trade.
I said, "As an ancestor to Americans!" Reasons that flow from these are such as follows: The race is the sea-mastering race and the navy-managing race and the ocean-carrying race; the race is the literary race, the exploring and settling and colonizing race, the race to whom fair play appeals, and that insists on individual development.
For twenty-five years succeeding the adoption of the Constitution the maritime interest both shipbuilding and shipowning thrived more, perhaps, than any other gainful industry pursued by the Americans.
