The TRUSTS AGnin~t the Constitution

The Trusts Against the Constitution.
The Republican majority for the Porto
Rican infamy in the House Of Representa-
tIves yesterday may have been a trife
larger than most people expected. but that
The crime against national hotOr and the
Constitution would be pen petrated sue
cessfuIly. no one has had reason 10 doubt
at any time. The oppression of Porto
Rico will now proceed !n order and the
issue presented to the American people by
the trusts and their political organization
Will Dee accepted cheerfully and attended
TO at Jhe polls i'm November
no one need envy poor Mr.. Mckinley
on the present occasion. The Payne-For-
aker bill is not one to fll him with JOY
over the signing Of it, 1t cannot faIi TO
remind him painfully Of his oath TO sup
port tine Constitution, OF his plain duty.
aud how The trust maguates came over
here from New York and compelled him
10 swallow il. Perhaps hc may think that,
now IL is out Of the way as legislation. the
country wiz forget an about IT, If so. he
is mistaken The country has only Just
begun to think about the matter. QUes-
tious viii be- asked which he cannot an
swcr comfortably. Everywhere there IS
intense curiosity TO know why ne changed
The view he held last autumn and into ;na
winter that the Constitution went to Porto
Rico with the flag That was the oDil0n
not only Of Mr. Mckinley. rlt Of his Cab
met and Of the party leaders in Congress,
and they adhered to it until very recently
quite as strongly as an honest men do
today.
The crime against Porto Rico viii not
be more tolerabIe in the eyes of the
American public. because it has been COM
pleted There will be plenty Of things to
keep it from observation. Shortly. a mon
ster petition will b. sent TO Congress by
the unhappy Porto sicans. begging for re-
cession to Spain, and piCturiug the con-
trast between their former liberty. happi-
ness. and prosperity under the Spanish
rule and their misery and famine under
that OF the oil. sugar and tobacco trusts,
Such a petition is coming and it Will be
mighty interesting reading" for the
nations OF the Old World Tho have their
own notions about the piety and sincerity
OF this country.
More contract labcrers are coming over
10 be released by NIr- Cage. for fear that
b habeas corpus might get loose without
"a muzzle and find its way into the Su-
preme Court. Other means and methods
calculated to prevent forgetfulness are
TO be constantly on tap from now TO the
elections which appropriately will be
synchronous with that pleasant annual
. agricultural event known as hog killing
time"
We are happy to reflect that the Demo-
Gratis in the House made as fine a fight
and as complete a succtacle Of their antago-
e. nists as they did on yesterday. We trust
that no feeling Of personal rancor toward
the other side will survive the struggle.
We owe a great deal to the Republicans
for their laundering and wickedness in Of
fering us such winning issue as The
Trusts Against the Constitution"

The Secretary Of the Navy has addressed
the Senate Committee on Naval Affairs.
urging legislation to increase the number
Of c5 lets at Annapolis. At present there are
not nearly enough officers in the Navy to
fiji the positions necessary on its vessels.
The Secretary calls attention TO the fact
that he has been able to detail only TWEEN
ty- three officers for duty on the Kearsarge.
whereas the British battleship Majestic
has seventy. Certainly it is useless to
spend millions in adding fresh bottoms to
our service unless Congress intends to pro-
vide means TO man and fight them.

Has Black Eye.-The Hon r. W
Carmack has returned to Washington with
"a black eye. This is OF especial interest in
view of the fact that Mr.. Carmack has
been personally looking after his interests
in the warm Senatorial campaign now in
progress il Tennessee. Additional interest
attaches to the circumstance when IL is
known that NJ. Carmack is asking the
people Of Tennessee to elevate him to the
Senate on a platform opposed to expansion.
His chief opponent. Supreme Court Justice
SnOdgrass, is running on an expansion
platform, while the third man in the race
Governor McMillin. has not yet committed
himself on this great and OyershadoWing
issue Neither OF these gentlemen has yet
accumulated a black eye. Mr. Carmack's s
right optic is covered with a dark green
shade, and be is being kept busy explain
ing to his colleagues in the House that
he is suffering with an attack OF iritis.
Still, there are incredulous statesmen
among them who wink when his back IS
turned and intimate the belief that the
ailment which he says has befallen him
is only an ill-omen of what is to happen
before the Senatorial campaign is closed
unless he adjusts his platform to the ira
ditiOuai policy of his party. At the same
time. there is much sympathy for Mr.
Carmack in his present unhappy plight
and the hope is universal that whatever
has caused his black eye may soon be
eradicated from the atmosphere of Tenn
pssee.

As Senator Davis. Chairman OF the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations. has officially
stated to Senator Morgan that the Hay
Pauncefote Treaty will not be again
brought up for consideration at this ses-
sion of Congress, the latter is no longer
under any obligation to refrain from press
ing the American Nicaragua Canal bill
Senator Morgan is determined to place the
Republican majority on record in the mat
ter. so that the country may be in no doubt
as to what Senators arc favorable and
what are Unfayorable to the proposition
Of an American canal. to be built with
American money, and defended with
American guns. Our own idea IS that the
Administration is strong enough To pre-
vent legislation az this time. On the other
hand, il is not able 10 blind the eyes Of
anybody TO the fact that its obstruction Of
the canal project results from a campaign
subscription trade with the plutocrauc
enemies Of the proposed national work.

House yesterday defending the Porto Ri
can bill he referred scathingly TO the sub
sidized Republican press" Merry shouts
OF approving laughter greeted This .hr1st
on the Democratic side Of the ch- .aber.
Several minutes after the close - his
speech Mr. DalzeH rose to question Of
personal privilege and explained that he
had not meant to say the subsidized Re
publican press" but the misguided Re
publican press" or course. the objec-
tiCnabIe word was kept out Of the Rec
ord" Mr.. Dalzell made a similar break
when he mad, his first speech on the POr-
to Rjcan bill a month ago. In thas argu-
ment he took the bold ground tn. Con
