The Porto Rican tariff bill which
was eDacted by the house yesterday by
it's concurrent action in the senate
amendments will blot forever the his
tory of the United States with one of
the most surprising acts in the way
of breach of faith that a great ma
ton has ever been guilty of, and
those who live today will see the time
when the country will blush for
shame that such a thing was possible
and condemn all who were party

Imhsmmstory Rheumatism Cured in
Three DAYS.

Merton l.. Hill, of Lebanon, Ind.
says: My wife had inflammatory
rheumatism in every muscle and
joint; her suffering was terrible and
her body and face were swollen al
most beyond recognition; had been in
bed for six weeks and had eight ply
sicians, but received no benefit until
she tried the Mystic Cure for Rheu-
matism. 1t gave immediate relief
and she was able to walk about in
three days. 1 am sure it saved her

"Up to Jan. 20, 1900. the publican
party was committed by it's past rec
ord and the utterances of its leaders
to the simple declaration of President
McKinley's message: The markets
of the United States should be opened
up to her products. Our plain duty
is to abolish all customs tariffs be-
tween the United States and Porto
Rico and give her products free access
to our markets. There has never
been a question that We could do this
plain duty constitutionally. The
only question has been whether or
not we could do anything else consti-
tutionally, as well as honestly, justly
and wisely.

Thus has been consummated under
the party whip the most remarkable
departure in congressional Legislation

been spoken and written concerning
the Porto Rican tariff bill, the mys-

NEW ERA| N THE
GAME Of TENNIS
Crack Players Preparing for an IN
usually Brilliant Season This
Summer.

The lawn tennis season is now thoroughly
under way, and the tournament experts
are in prime condition for the brilliant sum-
mer which they anticipate, and it Is safe to
say that if the English players decide to
come to this country this fall, which is not
beyond the realm of possibility, they will
find the strongest American delegation to
meet them that has been turned out in
many a year.
Not only are add of the last season
cracks preparing for the campaign of the
dists controlled the game, lawn tennis IN
this country has advanced steadily. Even
from the point of view of the expert the
present year, but there are a dozen or two
new contestants for these honOrs. and half
a score of the leading veterans Of ten years
ago are trying their best to get pack into
harness. ILL.,,
fairs, therefore,, one may we'll smile at the
suggestion that the interest inlawn tenn1s
Is dying out in this country. Novelty seek
ers who adopted tennis as a fad may have
transferred their allegiance to other forms
of amusement, but those who have had a
strong interest in the game for its own
AS a matter of fact, II the truth be told,
the game os yet young in this country. 1t
game was first played in the United States,
and for 10 years or so it attracted but little
attention.
Suddenly the game came into vogue in
America. A great wave of enthusiasm
swept over the eastern portion of the coun-
try, and for a long time no country resi-
dence was complete without it's tennis
court. At that time every one played ten
mis-, or, rather, played at it.
A TREAT VOGUE.
This was the time when people devoted
their attention to this form of amusement
because it was fashionable to do so, ano
not because they really enjoyed it. This
mushroom growth, however, soon ran its
course. Other things called the attention
of those who had played because they mus
play in order to be in the swim, and people
began to see the game played for the
sports own sake.
