SPEAKER HENDERsoN,s LETTER.

Speaker Henderson's letter to an Iowa
friend Is remarkable for several things
In the first place 1t shows a degree of zeal
in support of the House Porto Rican tariff
bill that is of very questionable propriety.
The presiding officer of a parliamentary
body is not supposed to be a partisan in
the ordinary sense. The speaker of the
British House of Commons is chosen gen.
orally without regard to politics. and some
times presides in successive parliaments of
opposite political character. His powers
are limited to the preservation of order
and the regulation of debate under the
rules of the House. the use of the casting
vote in case of tie and speaking in COM
mittee of the whole. The speaker of the
House of Representatives has much greater
power than this. He may speak and vote
on any question. yet his primary function
Is as presiding officer OF the House. Though
nominated and elected as party man, he
ought not as speaker to become the open
advocate or opponent of any measure
When he goes upon the floor to speak 1t is
as an individual representative General
Henderson's letter shows him to be a very
jealous, almost a violent advocate of the
Porto Rican tariff bill. He speaks of hav-
ing worked with his associates to pass the
measure. He characterizes the senator's
who oppose II as towards" although he
bases his own action on a sense of duty
Thus from his standpoint it is duty to sup
port this new-fangled policy of enacting
tarif law between different portions OF a
common country and IL is cowartiice to OPP
pose IT. That is queer talk TO come from
the presiding officer of the House
The speakers letter Is further remark
able for the weakness and disingenuousness
OF his arguments in favor of the BILL Sup
pose II Is true. as he says. though IL Is
doubtful that the free admission into the
United States of the stocks OF tobacco
and sugar now I'm Porto Rico would give
hundreds OF thousands OF dollars TO trusts
and syndicates that have bought them up.
A mere incident or passing circumstance
like that should not determine a govern
mental policy. Nobody wants TO see any
trust or syndicate of spectators make
money. bat even that were better than
the adoption Of an unjust and odious policy
BY the United States towards the inhabi-
tants Of Porto Rico.

Ricans should be required to pay the ex-

 New London county, and MT. Black stone's prize therefore created consider able curiosity and interest According to the scientific books the bird is an "accidental' visitor and is of the mi grating class travelling entirely from place to place on foot. It is only able to fly a few yards at time. The bird comes from the south and is seldom found farther north than the middle states. How it was able to get into New London county across the sound or rivers it is difficult to explain
 Mr. Blackstone kept the bird at home for few days and it grew quite tame, hopping about the house and gree dily eating whatever food was given it. Con- finement did not agree with it. how ever, and Monday it died. MT. Black stone will have the bird stuffed and added to his already large collection of valuable specimens.
 Yesterday in a swamp apple bush near Fatrview reservoir MT Blackstone discovered the nest of a bue-throated warbler. The nest contained four eggs, and MT. Blackstone succeeded in cap turing both the male and female birds.
 The blue-throated warbler generally breeds no farther south than Canada or northern Maine and how these beaut- ful specimens came to make their home in Connecticut is q mystery unless they started their flight too late in the sea- son. Both birds will be stuffed.-Nor- wich Record.
