Of them the same kind OF home rule

Bring them inside and give them pre-

does not appear any seri-

when we come to settle the question Of
trade relations Free trade with those
islands competition Of their produc-
lions with like productions of our own
would hurt our home producers just
as much when the Islands are United
States dependent territories as when
they were alien colonies. On the other
hand, an American tariff on their pro-
auctions would be the same TO them,
whether they were Spanish colonies
independent governments OF United

theory is to place a protective duty on
everything that we can produce and
admit free all that we cannot produce
unless the protective duties fall below
our revenue requirements; in which
case Injuries should be taxed

The natural sport of the human race
is hunting and fishing AS territory is
settled and reduced 20 cultivation the
habitat Of game is destroyed. AS popu-
lation increases hunters are multiplied.
AS hunters multiply game is extermi-
mated. No other sport is so fasclnat-
ing none Is more attractive: none
more healthful and invigorating Ia
both body and mind. IL is therefore
right than wanton destruction and ex-
termination Of game should be pro
hibited. The Delaware Game Protec-
tive Association is exerting itself mos
commercially to restock Delaware witt
game.

the Williamsport Sun, democratic
paper, says: Interviews printed else
where in the Sun Indicate that 1899 has
been Willlamsport's greatest year for
manufactures. This is probably true
both as TO volume and value, and the
results bespeak a glowing growth that
must be source Of congratulation to
all our citizens" The same thing is
said by newspapers all over the country
and thus have the promises and proph-
ecies of sound money and protection
benefits been fulfilled. Thus have the
dismal prophecies Of Bryan and the
free silverites been dishonored. The
city OF Williamsport is not the only
community in the United States that
has felt the same glowing growth. .
nor is 1t the only one that will con-
tinue to feel it. There is a boom in the
South never heretofore exceeded. and
the Western farmers are paying on
their mortgages at a rate that aston
fishes even themselves. The mill hands
Of New England are swelling the de
posits Of the savings banks beyond all
precedent, and SO are those throughout
Pennsylvania.
