You are in favor of encouraging home industry ?
Mr. COYLE. By all means. I think that is our strength as a nation, particularly in our seaports. Our best men are drifting to the West. A great many of them are leaving our seaports, particularly our mechan ics, who are the bone and muscle of the country.
Mr. WELLS. Do you not think that if that law were repealed, and if American merchants were allowed to go abroad and buy their vessels, it would have a tendency to drive all the mechanics of the c...ountry out the business ?
Mr. COYLE. Certainly.
Captain CYRUS STURDIV ANT made some remarks in favor of removing the duties from the materials entering into the construction of ships, and thus encouraging ship-building. He trusted that Congress would give the ship-building and ship-owning interest some relief, and thus prevent the best men of Maine from going elsewhere for a living. As to steamboats they were taxed to death. They had to get their license renewed every year and to pay thirty cents on the ton for new measure ment.
