Some of the great journals contend
that it would be hypocrisy of the worst
kind to make Porto Rico a state in this
government without allowing the people
of the island a chance to vote upon the
proposed incorporation Others oppose
this view by citing the several conspic-
nous instances where very extensive do
main was aided to our territory, and
the inhabitants thereof were taken in
nolens volens; for Instance, all the
Louisiana territory, purchased from
France, east and west Florida purchased
from Spain, California, New Mexico,
Arizona, acquired by conquest from
Mexico, Alaska, by purchase from Rus.
STA lone of these. they contend, became
territories of this government by the
vote of the people living there We do
not regard the cases as analogous. All
the states named were contiguous to the
Uuited States, and with the exception
of Alaska, there was a homogenity of
feeling and sentiment among the people
of the old and the new countries that
made them regard each other as people
of a common country, even before the
formality of admitting them as states
was effected. As to Alaska, the dron-
ish people were not considered as hav.
any rights which a white man was
bound to respect, But with Porto Rico
he case is different, The conditions
here are about the same as in our own
southern States, as far as virtue and
Intelligence control the government.
There is a very large class Of large and
mall property owners who appreciate
he necessity of having q good stable
government for the protection Of their
ives and property, Apropos Of this the '

it was known that the party was inter
