sands Of dollars of the public funds
going through the motions of gathering

What people with poor digestion

This Is exactly the purpose for which

who, up to that time had been loud

nounced the plain duty proposition
A few, however, blindIy refused to

They were at once assailed by the

quoted, and never word came pub
licly from the other end of the

When Gen. Miles landed in Porto
Rico he assured the people there Of
honest treatment by our government.
Last fall the Porto Ricans had some
sugar and tobacco and some fruits
which they had raised and wished &c
sell. 1t was not large privilege
they asked; only the itlght to sell In
our markets that which their own In.
dustry had made ready for sale, to
such of our people as might wish to
buy. They had nowhere else to go.
The war which had cast their lot with
us, had at the same time cut off their
former right of trading in the Spanish
markets; tho. tornado had destroyed
their coffee plantations, and being on
the verge of universal starvation
they turned to us, and In their sim
plicIty imagined that We would do
them Justice; they even seemed to be-
lieve that the talk Of which they had
heard. about the benevolent char
acter of our "assimilatlve' intention
really meant something.
Mr.. Mckinley appeared to feel for
them, and said in his December mess
age to Congress that to give them tine
right to sell in our markets without
restriction duties being imposed, was
but our plain duty" as manifestly
It was. His Cabinet concurred in this
view, and when deputation from
Porto Rico came hero representing
that famine actually threatened ths
island. a bill was framed strictly in
accordance with the Presidents re-
comMcadation. Mr., Mckinley has
never publicly disnvowed this opinion,
aud hence we AFRO to believe that he
still holds II.
Just at this point the trusts, s,--the to.
bacco trust, the sugar trust and the
fruit trust, got wind Of what was GO
ing on. They swcoped down on Con.
grcss, and like Demetrius in tho
scripture said to the members: "Sirs,
ye know that by this craft we have
our wealth." and that this our craft
is IN danger TO be set ut nnught."
Congress bowed before the cohesive
power OF spoil, aud the bill was
amended so as to levy duty OF 25
per cent. Of the Dingley rates upon
Porto Rican products seeking our mar.
kets. For the purposes of the trusts
IN discriminating In their favor, 25
per cent is just as ctfectual as $500
per cent.
Then the whipping'in process be

then the people began to be heard

were oIninous and something must be
done. First it was announced that
the design Of the bill as passed was
to permit case to be made up for
decision in the Supreme court, by
which the rights Of the Porto Ricans
may be settled. To send n starving
man to the Supreme court to get some
thing to eat struck the average citizen
as 50 funny that this subterfuge was
abandoned, and another substituted
for 1t. The President sent a "hurry-
up" call to Congress, recommending
that the duties collected from the peo
pie Of the island. under the bill as
passed, should be expended "for the
government and beneft Of Porto Rico"
In other words, money extorted from
a people under law the repeal of
which would, according to the Presi
dent, be only an act Of ''plain duty"
and which money must therefore, in
his view, have been taken from them
by sheer robbery-such money is to be
