fact and you had a son in the Twenti-
 eth Kansas. you have a just claim to
 the appointment of duke. My advice
 ,o you is to make application soon.
 Don't ask for something equally as
 gcod.' but you insist on duke. They
 may want to make you an earl or a
 marquis or somcthing but don't you be switched off You just hold the cn
 peror up by the CillS and he's bound to come to your terms. Dukes don't have to be confirmed by ihe senate and it a life appointment. There is no salary
 attached to the office, but you have q right to enslave and hold in bondage any democrat or pOp wherever he is found. They are what we call in law "ferae naturae," that is. wild stuff. The man that g6 $ them has them just like ground hogs and pelicans. If you get in carly you get your first pick.
 You want to go for Webb McNall and D. O., McCrary just as soon as you get your commission. They expect it. They said if Mckinley were elected we
 would be q nation of slaves. They have their mind made uD to be slaves. You tell them. Empire is here. I'm
 duke and you are my meat; follow me" And they will follow you right
 off anywhere. I think Joe Waters is all right too.
 You want to have iron heels put on your boots and make your saves wear turn-down collars so that you can put
 the iron heel of despotism on their neclls without the consent of the gov erned The duties of the office are few and simple. I've been in Europe where they have dukes. You wake up in the morning and you call in your slaves as you want them and you talk shakes pearc Co them. For instance. you sum- non McCray and shout at him: For sooth. knave! Bring me this morning my matutinal martini" He goes out and brings you in a cocktail of which he drank half in order to prevent you from being poisoned by the join,ist.
 Then you shout: What. miniCn, ho!" and in comes McNall and you order oatmeal or codfish balls or anything you want and then say. 'Arroint,"
 which means for him to kick himself off. Then you bring in Joe and say,
 "Ha, varlet. q Keywester-three for a dollar" Then Joe will get down on his hands and knees and say. ives. your
 dukeness," and everybody will imme- diately go out in brackets. Don't be | apprehensiVe about where the money is to come from. You'H have plenty. You will coin the sweat and blood of tne serfs. If they won't work, you can have the regular army kill them. Think of forty democrats in i,hc back yard clanking their chains with hot. soa.d- ing tears running down their furrowed checks, while you swing l.stlessly in your hammock listening to the music of the bondsmans grOan. It will be Ike a trip to Long Branch. You will be listening to he serf-sea?
 Anything I can do for you with the emperor. let me know. Yuurs,-E. r.

Great Growth. Notwithstanding

Volume of business There.

Special Dispatch to the st-Intelligencer.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 12-Commerce be-
tween the United States and Puerto Rico
during the two months in which the new
tariff act has been in operation shows
an enormous increase over that Of the
corresponding two months OF the preced-
Ing year. This is the more observable
because of the assertion which has been
frequently made during the past few
months that the island Is practically inn
poverished since the storm Of last Au-
gust.
Notwithstanding the conditions due to
the storm, both as to material for ex-
portation and facilities for purchase, the
exports TO the United States in May and
June, 1900. were 80 per cent in excess OF
those of the corresponding mouths. OF
1899 and the imports from the United
the same months in 1899. In May and
June, 1922. the imports into the United
States from Puerto Rico. as shown by the
tistics. were si.4sls ss. and in May and
June. 1900. they were sas22. ia In May
and in MAY and June. 5000 they were
$1.5S7,4S. Thus the imports into the
United States from Puerto Rico show in
May and June. 1900, an increase OF 80
of 1889. both OF which occurred prior to
the storm of that year. and the exports
from the United States TO Puerto Rico
show an increase of 40 per cent. over
the corresponding mouths of 1899
Amount of Total Commerce
The figures OF the total commerce with
Cuba, Puerto Rico. Hawaii and the Phil
ippines show in each case a marked
growth. especially In exports. To Cuba,
