The Chicago Tribune, which has
always had decided free trade ten
denotes and which earnestly
espoused the free trade side of the
Porto Rican question when the dis
cussion of that subject began, takes
the following view of the action Of
the senate on this subject.
When the tempest in teapot is
stilled, as it will be soon, it will be
generally admitted that no moral
principle is involved in this Porto
Rican legislation. and that the only
question is one of expediency-of the
best method of getting through a
brief transition period. 1t will be
conceded soon by all unbiased per
sons that immediate free trade would
have been the worst method of get
ting through that period. The Fora
ker bill embodies the mature and de
hberate conclusions of almost all the
Republican senator's, reached after
consulting the men best acquainted
with Porto Rican affairs Certainly
Republicans are not prepared to ad-
nit that the senators of their party,
among whom are many of its ablest
and most illustrious members, are
incompetent and that the Democratic
senators are more capable legis-
latorS.

Gil years ago the question of the city
owning the gas works came up, and
/ was in favor of buying same on the
very favorable terms offered by JAS
NJ Starr, as / afterwards was in IA
vor of the city putting in her own
water works. But then the people
had not caught the latter day mu-
nicipal fever, and a man who pro-
posed it was branded as expecting to
make something out of it, although
the present day fashion of doing that
sort of thing did not then prevail.
But we who were in favor of those
things then were as honorably SO as
am now honorably of the opinion
that it would be ruinous to the city
to build either gas works, water
werks, or electric light works in OPP
position to private owners now OPP

perhaps be done in time, but | figure
that it would take long time and
be very expensive process to the
property owners as well as to the
others.
AS | understand, the present cleo
trio light company's contract does
not expire until 1904 and their fran
chise not until 1920.
Then, while all is considered fair in
love and war, there would be reiec-
tions to live after, and adding the
cost of the war to the ultimate pur-
chasing price we would probably
find the result greater than the
amount they could have been bought
out for in the beginning.

are making solemn asses of them
selves in attributing to Mark Hanna S
influence everything that is done by
the Republican majority in the sen
ate. Mr.. Hanna had good deal less
to do with educating the people
on the Porto Rican question than
several other senators had. The only
question OF interest in the premises
is whether the education was needed
or not. OF course there are people
who know everything, and they can
not see the need of education on any
subject A good many of these peo-
