who has given much atten-

origin and history OF famous

bricks for the church here
were made. Ii has been
claimed from time immemO-
rial that this church was
constructed from English
bricks.
Mr.. Tyler saws in that
a. at present bricks could be
made here cheaper than in
England. owing TO nat

nearly every farm, aud traces

1 NEVER FORGET YOU.

/ think of you in the sunshine,
| dream night and day of you,
When all the world is silent,
And stars shine out in the blue:
And whether the hours be golden,
Or whether the day be drear
Your love is beside me always
! never forget you, dear!
| see your eyes i'm the stars, love,
hear your voice in the sea,
The spell of your tender presence
Goes over the world with me.
And distance cannot divide us,
Though far away or near,
In my heart of hearts you dwell love-
| never forget you, dear.
The stars may forget their places
The day may forget to break,
The flight of the hours may alter,
The rose may forget to wake!
But love that is true is forever,
Not a day, nor a month, nor a year;
To the end of the world i love YOU
i never forget you dear!

There used to be colonization society
that owned a good ship named Elizabeth,

Major Waters, a wealthy gentleman Of

made my father his executor and direct

them and to take them to Savannah and
see them put en- board the Elizabeth

was to set them up in Africa. SO my

cation to be locally supported, and ordi-
nances providing for sanitary and other
such purposes could be speedily provided.
l believe provision of this kind would
be satisfactory to the people of the terri
tory. 1t is probable that the area is too
vast and the population too scattered and
transitory to make it wise at the present
time to provide for an elective legislative
body, but the conditions calling for local
self government will undoubtedly very
soon exist and will be facilitated by the
measures which have recommended.
81 recommend that legislation to the
same end be had with reference to the
government of Porto Rico. The time is
ripe for the adoption of temporary
form of government for this island, and
many suggestions made with reference to
Alaska are applicable also to Porto Rico.
PORTO RICO'S COMMERCE..
at must be borne in mind that since
the ccssion Porto Rico has been denied
the principal markets she had long en-
joyed and our tariffs have been continued
against her products as when she was
under Spanish sovereignty. The markets
of Spain are closed to her products except
upon terms to which the commerce of all
nations is subjected. The island of Cuba,
which used to buy her cattle and tobacco
without customs duties, now imposes the
same duties upon these products as from
any other country entering her ports.
She has therefore lost her free inter-
course with Spain and Cuba without any
compensating benefits in this market
Her coffee was little known and not in
use by our people, and therefore there
was no demand here for this one of her
chief products. The markets of the Unit
ed States should be opened up to her
products. Our plain duty is to abolish
all customs tariffs between the United
States and Porto Rico and give her
products free access to our markets.
GAS result of the hurricane which
swept over Porto Rico on the Sth of Au-
gust, 1899, over 100000 people were re-
duced to absolute restitution, without
homes and deprived of the necessaries of
life. TO the appeal of the war depart
ment the people of the United States
made prompt and generous response. In
addition to the private charity of our
people, the war department has expended
for the relief of the distressed $392,-
342. G3, which does not include the cost Of
transportation"
Mr.. Mckinley repeats in his message
the words he used in his inaugural adj
dress concerning lynchings in the United
States. He calls upon the people of the
country to faithfully uphold the right Of
trial by jury.
The last subject discussed in the mes
sage is civil service. The president says
that the amendments promulgated by the
executive order of May 90, 1899, to the
order of May 6, 1896. were made when it
became evident to the heads of depart
ments that the amendments were neces-
sary to an efficient and harmonious adj
ministraton of the departments. He
claims that the results obtained show
that the public service has improved and
that the civil service system is relieved
OF many of it's Objectionable features.
