THINGS IN PORTO RICO.

The report Of Rev. Father Thomas
+. Sherman, Jesuit, to the Secretary of
War, shows that he has inherited
n large portion of his distinguished
fathers genius for observation and gen.
eralization. He finds the people of
Porto Rico gentle, docile and kind, with
the disorderly element very small
fraction, and one that can be easily
dealt with. Profound respect is felt for
American authority, and all classes
rejoice at escaping from the corrupt
dominion of Spain. The Latin races, he
says, are far less frank than our own, and
more timid Friendship, kinship, and
fear frequently prevent giving informa-
ton in regard to crime and criminals,
but by proper management these can be
overcome, and the country readily gov
erned. The island is an earthly para
disc, where everything contributes to
happiness. The first great need is for
good roads. These would add immensely
to the wealth and prosperity of the island,
and facilitate its Government
Father Sherman finds the religious
condition most unsatisfactory. The
people are nominally Catholic, but only
nominally. The churches are very
poorly attended The priests were Gov
ernment officials, mostly Spaniards, and
had little interest in their focks beyond
squeezing money out of them. Sunday
had little or no observance. In great
part of the island the sacrament of con-
iirmation had not been administered for
years. The priests were more inter
ested in politics and money-making than
their sacerdotal duties. Now most of
the Spanish priests have gone back
home. There are many excellent priests
remaining, who arc native to the island,
and the hopes of the island are on these,
but the building up Of the Church to
what it should be is an anxious problem.
The organized charity is very defect
i've, and the blind haunt the roadside,
begging. There is an immense amount
of public begging, a great deal of pow
crty, heavy infan. mortality, and much
malformniion Of children on account of
insufficient nourishment. The burial
system is barbarous, and the number
ilIcgitimate children born exceeds that
Of the legitimate. Concubinage is not
discouraged either legally or socially.
The National tribune., 1899-03-16
AMERICAN DIPLOMACY.

For frank, guileless, straightforward
! democracy, we astonish the whole world
with our aptitude for the may tricks of
diplomacy. ambassador Cambon said
in his dispatches home during the war,
and recently publis he'd in the French
Red Book, that we outmanuyered Spain
at every diplomatic turn; we were IN full
possession of all her secrets, even her
CAREFUL -guarded State cipher, and
when he went to see the President in
regard to the first steps toward the proto-
col he was astounded to find him in full
possession of The secret instructions which
had been sent Cambon from Madrid
Yet the canting Pharisees of " Culchah,"
of which the New York Erening Post
is the exponent, have been wailing for
years that we lacked the training and
ability to cope with the highly-devc1-
oped politicians of Europe, and that we
needed "clahs of men, cultivated
from generation to generation" to rule
this country. Our State Department
was managed during the war by plain
Ohio Countyseat lawyer, who probably
had never been within q mile of a Civil
Service examination. He is a man of
decided ability, but few outside of Can
ton, O., had ever heard of him, before
President Mckinley appointed him As
sistant Secretary of State, and there is
every reason for believing that any
little city of 10000 population in the
country could furnish an equally able
Secretary OF State. -

COMMISSIONER EvANs's pet scheme,
namely, the prohibiting of pension here
after to any widow of an old soldier IN
less she was married to the deceased be-
fore March 8, 1899, the date of the law,
has found place i'll the statutes through
the process of sneaking it into bill of
another nature, under the cover of a
conference report. A bill to regulate
the payment of PENSIONS of inmates of
State Homes and branches of the Ma
tional Homes went to conference on
disagreeing votes of the House and
Senate. When it emerged, 10 and be-
hold, it contained foreign matter-Mr.
Evans's hobby-with no reference
thereto in tie conferees' report, In
the confusion and haste incident to the
closing days of a Congress, this most
important legislation apparently escaped
notice, and Mr.. Evans is now able to
rub his hands and stroke his Napoleonc
that is to say, Mephistophelian-
whiskers in very ecstacy at the thought
that he Las toiled some "young adj
ventures !" having designs On an So or
perhaps So pension as widow, and so
to become, as all will agree, at once in
command Of all comforts and luxuries
of life. 1t must be pleasing to Mr..
Evans to know that he has placed the
helpmate Of the declining years of many
brave man beyond the Insignificant
aid to support afforded by a widows
pension.

Yes, you are rs fine looking soldier rs

Stepping back into his Office he returned

There, find tailor outside somewhere
to sew them on. You are now a non-com-
missloned officer on my staff, and expect
you TO do all you can to maintain Its

Shorty's face flushed with pride as he
saluted, and thought, without saying:
" You jest bet | will. ANY loafer that
don't pay proper respect to this here stafT'll
git his blamed neck broke
Here" said the Chief Clerk, handing
Shorty an official envelope when the latter
returned from having his chevrons sewed on.

your belt, walk into the office, take the

The veterans Of Iowa seem to be
thoroughly aroused upon the question of
having their State for once represented
in the United States Senate by COM
rade. Iowa sent multitude Of as fine
soldiers as the world ever saw into The
army, and they were great fighters
everywhere. Out Of a total population
Of 674,913 she furnished, reduced to a
three years standard, GS,11S men, of
whom 1910 were actually killed in
battle and 9,46l died from other causes,
making her total deaths 1901, or 10
per cent.-ncarly one in every five Of
her quota. Wherever an Iowa regiment
appeared it was q credit to the State and
to the army. Such record as this
certainly deserves representation in the
Senate, and there is excellent Senatorial
material among the Iowa veterans, both
iii and out Of the Congressional dele
CATION.

FULLY 10 per cent. of the volunteers
in the Philippines are said to express a
desire to remain there after discharge.
This is what we had expected and hoped
for Now let the Government encour-
age this and also settlement in Cuba by
surveying the islands, determining what
are public lands, and giving a grant to
every soldier who will settle down upon
it, and start a coffee, sugar, tobacco or
other plantation. This will reward the
men who fought for the country, and it
will do more than anything else to
civilize the islands and give them a
stable Government.
The National tribune., 1899-03-16

SENATOR SULLIVAN, Of Mississippi,
expressed great surprise at discovering
that the Disability Act of 1890
allowed pension to any veteran who
was disabled, without reference to the
income or property that he might
possess. The Senator is new in the
halls of Congress, or he would know
that the proposition to put a "pauper
feature in the Act was thoroughly dis
cussed for several years while it was
pending. and was very properly dis
carded by Congress, for good and
sufficient reasons. He would also know
that there was no such feature in the
pension acts for the soldiers Of the War
Of 1912, or the Mexican war, and that
