CoCOANUTS AND BANANAS WILL NOT PAY
OFF THE PUBLIC DEBT.
The Senator proceeded to show the
fallacy of the Presidents theory that the
tropical products of the island would 90 a
great way toward the payment of the
public debt. The imagination ia q poor
financier, wholly without thrift. Even
granting the greatest products, they
would, nevertheless be the property of pri-
vate owners, and must be paid for accord
lngly, and the price would be the average
price of such articles in the chief marts of
the world, but not less than the cost of
production in Santo Domingo. If the
worlds supply of coffee and sugar were
to be so largely increased, however, by q
hundred millions, then it is plain to see
that the price might be greatly dimin-
ished so much SO, perhaps, as to make
the cultivation of such crops, even in
Santo Domingo, Improbable, and then
their curtailment or total abandonment
must speedily follow. A certain amount
OF revenue is indispensable to the exist.
ence OF the government. Remove duties
from one quarter and they must be put on |
In some other. If our supply of sugar,
coffee, tobacco and tropical fruits could be |
obtained free of duties, something else
must then assume the burden. If our i'm.
ports OF dutiable articles should be de-.
minished one-fourth, then proportionatel
Increase OF the tariff upon the remainder
must follow or internal taxation must
again be resorted to tor means to supply
the deficiency. No one proposes to resort
o the latter at home, and therefore it
could not be imposed upon Santo Domin-
60. With ne duties upon our exports to
u from Santo Domingo, and no revenue
rom internal taxation, what becomes oil
as "an honest means Of pay
ng our honest debts ?n
The fallacy of expecting any revenue
rom santo Domingo was fitly shown, the
senator considered, in the example Of
mined at considerable length. He stren-
lsusly opposed the annexation, conse.
Iuently on the ground that it would ?
'eavily increase the national debt and |
