are not United States territory What description of
territory or whose territory they are has been left
unexplained by that body. Whether or not the re-

the anomalous conditions which prevail at least on
one OF those islands any who recalls the pc

VestgatiOn Of embalmed beef and otherwise may

IS as we suggest beyond all ordinary understanding
"A respectful protest has gone up from the people
OF Porto Rico against the prevailing state Of things
That protest indicates among other things that they
do not understand down there why they should be
maintained in the position of denatonazed race
or why, having welcomed the advent of Americans
they should continue subjected to a purely military
rule. Shrewdly enough they make this trenchant
comparison and comment:

mas no power to grant them; and the spectacle
given that there are two standards of weights and
neaSureS-one to be used with the Filipinos the
other with the Porto Ricans.
Now this, we take it. is not only a very shrewd
but very reasonable and just comment. What an
sWer can be given to it? We certainly fail to see
any which is adequate to explain the singular dis
elimination exercised against this peaceful and pa
triotic people.
The truth of the matter really is that no answer
has been essayed because there is none to offer that
would not be insult even to Porto Rican intelli-
gence. Gen. Henry, the former military governor has
been asked for He could not, and did not try
to- offer any. He declared that in the course of time
the Porto Ricans might be expected to secure such
rights involved in the establishment and main
tenance of territorial form of government. But he
did not, because, believe, he could not offer
any why such rights not conceded to them now
If the president has any power to offer the FipinOs
a limited form of representative government under
our system, he has corresponding right to be exer-
csed with reference to the Porto Ricans Indeed the
entire situation in the Philippines, Cuba and Porto
Rico has thus far only been effective in producing
one of the most remarkable cases of governmental
hurly-burly that prevailed since the world be
gan, under the auspices of any people whatever.
