What the Trusts Want.

So far az the interests of the sugar and
tobacco trusts are concerned 1t is sufficient
to say that they are purchasers and
not producers of raw sugar and to-
bacco, the principal products upon
which the proposed duties are to be laid;
and that the interest of the trusts lies d.
rectly and squarely in the direction of alb
solutely free-trade with Puerto Rico, in
order that they may enter these products
without the payment of any duty. Parti-
cularly is this the case at the present time,
when trusts have purchased and hold all
the stocks of these articles now 10 Puerto
Rico, and are deferring shipping to this
country in the hope that congress will ulti-
mately permit entry without the payment
of any duties Ii the trusts are exertlng
any influence in the matter at all, 1t is in
support of the democratic opposition and
against the pending tariff bill.-Seattle

better off today than under free trade.
Everything the poor man consumes
goes in free, and every cent of the 10
per cent duty imposed is given back to
the people. 1t cannot be used for any
thing else. The people who pay the 10
per cent are the merchants who are
making money, and if they are not
they should get out OF business. They
pay in and the poor man gets the
benefit of all" Mr.. Fordney here read
section 4 of the bill. which gives free
trade to Porto Rico as soon as il is
ready for it, and further provides there
shall be no duty after March, 1902.
When Porto Ricans show that they can
provide ways and means for carrying
on the government, they will be entitled
to free trade. At present they are too
poor. There is no other way of provid-
ing running expenses than by this
bill 1t will all work out right.
"The civil government takes hold
today under Governor Allen, and the
military government ceases The upper
house is composed of II members, six
appointed by the president, and five
elected. There are restrictions on the
electors, only those who can read and
write being permitted to vote. This
class is entirely composed of Spaniards,
the enemies of this country, and against
whom the late war was undertaken.
Under these circumstances was it not
right for the government to maintain
control? That is what the late war was
for. | never saw the time when the
democrats were so afraid the republic
cans would make mistake.
The sugar trust was not helping the
republican party. Havemeyer said on
March 80, that there was no reason
why sugar should not he admitted free
from Porto Rico, and that the supreme
court would so decide. There was no
sugar in the hands of The Porto Ricans.
1t was all owned by the trust, which
was holding it and waiting for the duty
to go off. would vote 40 times Just as
| did once for the bill, if it came up
that many times, beginning tomorrow.
AS to general conditions, man with
half an eye could see that prosperity
had come. At the end of four years of
democratic administration under Cleve-
land, manufacturing industries were
paralyzed, and the monetary system of
the country shattered. Today all in
dustries are running overtime, and
the money question is definitely set
tied. They have the consolation of
knowing that if the democrats get con-
troll of the house of representatives,
and even of the white house, no finan-
cial legislation can be enacted"
The speaker then read a treasury
statement, showing the financial stand
ing of the government up to April "a,
showing the immense reserve fund, and
the generally prosperous condition of
affairs. The ship subsidy kill was also
warmly commended, and the conven-
ton applauded when MIR. Fordney
showed how he and three other repub-
lican members had shut out the
Standard Oil Co. and the trusts from it's
benefits. A warm plea was entered for
the old soldiers, and pension claims,
555 had been vetoed by democratic
presidents. The speaker wanted to
