Five salient features mark the report Of the
Insular Commission concerning a civil govern.
menf for Porto Rico The first relates TO the
mode Of establishing that government. The
Commission recommends that II hc done 10y
Presidential order rather than by CongrcS-
sional cnactmcnt because the latter would
change tine status Of the island and make it
part of the constitutional territory II the
United States We are not 50 sur" Of that. II may

remain for som, time 10 com" under Executive
rather than Congressional control although
such control will in fact. if not in form. b"

control would not nece>~ irily make the island

a COMMERCIAL VIEW.

The expanEionists have had great deal
to say about the wonderful advantages to
be derived by this government from the
ownership aad control OF the Eastern
archipelago, and their theorles-as theories
usually do--sound we'll enough, but when
practical facts--fgures, which never de-
ceive-are applied, they explode, and leave
not even an Impress OF their former exist
ence.
The Mobile Register has been applying
some figures to this Philippine matter
and here is the way the account stands:
Having bought the Philippine Islands from
Strain for the sum of SO. GEO. l09. or. as II mas
been generally stated at the rate oil w per
head, followed by the consequent cost oil uh-
known millions Of dollars to make the bar
gain binding, the people OF the country hnVe
the right 10 expect that the trade OF the
islands is something of such paramount I'M
portance as to justify the expenditure OF iives
and cash now being dispensed with such lib
erality bv the United States. Whether this
ASSUMPTION is well founded or not can best
be Judged by the official trade statistics is-
sued from the state department in It's last
volume OF Commercial Relations of the
United Siates.' lust out of the government
printing Office. The figures given by the de-
partment nre for the year 1896 These show
that Tor the year the exports OF the PnlIln-
pines were Si9.30o.000 and the imports into
the Islands for the same Year ST. 200. 900.
making the total trade s3l 100000 Assuming
that the extent Of the normal trade OF the
islands had been diminished by the political
conditions In that year by, one-thrd. an out
side estimate. II will be seen that the entire
trade of the Islands yearly does not equal
that of an average State of the Union. Yet.
the government ~ expanding enough in the
effort to retain these islands to give every
bort in the United States. from Alaska Ia
Maine harhors as perfect as could be asked
for. with channels that would admit the
largest vessels which the trade of each and
every mort demands.
II there is no commercial value In these
Islands to us why on earth should we re
tain them and thus entail upon the Amerl-
can people the immense cost OF keeping
them up, even after millions have been
spent in subjugating them? These ques-
lions are propounded from business
standpoint, and from business stand
point alone.
BY government amalgamation are we
to receive other sort Of remuneration? II
no commercial seueiit, then what? Ger
tainly no moral, intellectual or scientific
good.
