THE . DAILY EVENING TELEGKAPII. PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, APRIL 20, 18GT.
V
THE PROTECTO OF SEAMEN.
lotheEditor of the livening Telegraph,
As your excellent shoi t was Interested enoueh
in a ceitaln measure, eome weeks since, pending
before the Legislature of this Ftate, to publish
jour views on It, I th'nk It my duty to tell
your readers, and tlie Rentleraen Interested In
tbe matter, what became of it. The bill entitled
"An Act for the better protection of seamen''
was not passed in the House, for the want of
time. There was very nearly a two-thirds tote
in the Ilouse In favor of it. It ts only postponed
until the Legislature meets again. But that
body known as the Landlords' Benevolent As
sociation have, lor tbe third time, set up their
claim to dictate to the whole commercial marine
of the port ot Philadelphia, in the following
terms substantially: "Merchants, you shall not
have any man on jour vessels that boards tn the
Bailors' Home;" suri to the Bailor, "You must
not ao to the Sailors' H 3 me: if vou do we will
prevent you petting a ship;" and to the Super
intendent of the Home, "We shall not allow auy
of our men to ship in a vessel that yon may be
shipping a crew lor." Or, in other words, say
ing to the masters and owners of ships, "We
don't allow you to employ tbe keeper of the
Bailors' Home to ship your men. You must
take them out of our whinky shops."
I wonder, Mr. Editor, if those self-constituted
puardiaus ot the merchant marine of this
port will go one step farther, and appoint a col
lector for the port. Yes, and tell the captain
where he must get his ship's outfit. Why not
carry out the whole matter? for surely if they
rosy dictate terms, and pay who shall or who
shall not ship the crew, then they may do the
other things. How, the question Is, Will the
merchants acquiesce in these things? Will they
allow these men to cripple the only institution
of the kind In this cuv an institution ealcu
laled to benefit both tbe souls and the bodies of
these men ? But perhaps the reader says, "Well,
what can be done that will be an effectual
remedy?" 1 answer, give your shipping to
the Home, and then the landlords must come
' to the keeper of It to get their men shipped,
making all the difference in the world, thus
encouraging men to come to the Home. Now
they are met on the river and told, "Don't go to
the Home, because you can't get a ship."
This can be easily done, and the merchants
be better served than now, thus widening and
extending the influence of such an institution,
ameliorating the condition of the sailor, and, as
a result, saving in a pecuuiarv point of view.
What causes a very large number of the losses
at sea but drunkenness, and the want of good
seamen, well clothed? And how can a man
become sober while he is boarding in a whiskv
mill? How can he be well clothed when he is
fed on whisky, and degraded by ail the infernal
appliances with which he is surrounded ?
But I hear one reply, "Well, I have hal jast
as bad men from the Sailors' Home as I ever
had from any other house." True, but did the
Home influences make them bad? No. Did
whisky houses ? Yes. All the truth there is in
that is, that the Home had not had an oppor
tunity to undo the doines of whisky Influence.
But who is so wilfully blind as to say that there
is no difference in substituting the family altar
for the bar, the Bible tor tbe bottle, prayer for
prolanity, good books and tracts and religious
and instructive reading matter for the pack of
cards, and tbe earnest temperance effort, in
ducing men to go to the church, the prayer
meeting, the room ot the Sons of Temperance,
instead of the brothel, the low cellar, and the
theatre?
One fact I may state here. About one-half of
all the men who come to the Home are induced
to sign Uie pledge, even some who have been
drunkards for years. Not one drunken man has
left the Home, to my knowledge, since I have
been in it. But to return. In tbe Home we
have a free nautical school, but which will be
removed to a new buiMing, to be erected on the
corner of Pine'and Front streets, embracing a
shipping office, clothing store, a school, where
all tbe useful branches will be taught gratui
tously, with reading-room, library, and a hall
for holding meetings, such as will be promotive
of the sailors' greatest good snd greatest effi
ciency. But if the men who are personally in
terested, pecuniarily at least, will not sustain
the Pennsylvania Seamen's Friend Society in
their work of faith and labor of love, especially
when it cost them less than nothing, then what
encouragement can they have to go on in their
labors, if ship-owners are indifferent to these
matters ? Hence we appeal to you to take hold
of these things, and suggest the calling of a meet
ing to take concerted and united action, r. p.
