PORTO RICAN PUZZLES.


That federal judge who recently de-
fined the status of the Porto Ricans TO
the entire satisfaction of the president
and in line with the policy of the ad-
ministration. claiming that they are
foreigners so far as commerce is con-
cerned and subjects of this government
in other respects, has made a valuable
contribution to the puzzle department
of our foreign relations
In the first place. the Spanish cortes
is anxious to know if this is a Yankee
trick to evade the terms of the Paris
treaty. by which Spain was to have
commercial privileges equal to and
Identical with our own for a limited
number of years Most Americans will
contend that whatever agreement was
made should be kept in letter and in
spirit This is not "a nation of petty
trickery-at least, il never was so re-
garded by any foreign power.
And no+y the story comes from OF
tawa that the Canadian government is
putting forth strong efforts to possess
the same trade privileges with Porto
Rico that it possessed before the &C
QUESTION of the island by the Unit-d
States
But here a serious and veXatiOus OBJ
stacle arises. If Porto Rico is a foreign
country so far as commerce is con-
cerned. what arrangements can this
government make for a continuance Of
those trade relations which Porto Ri
n nd
demand? Sir Richard Cartwright
states that the matter has been urged
upon The United States government
time and again within the past year
and that both LORDS Salisbury and
Pauncefote have made every effort to
induce our government to grant these
concessions. Sir Richard goes on to
say that the United States treats Porto
Rico as an absolute conquest and is
not disposed to extend any particula"
consideration to other countries in
their dealing with it. Yet we tax and
treat it as a foreign land, which puz
zles Cartwright, Salisbury and Paunce-
fote and cannot be explained by Hanna
Hay or Mckinley.
There seem to be q number of kinks
in President McKinIey's foreign and
colonial policies which no one has yet
been able to straighten out.
II Porto Rico is a part of the Ameri-
can Union. Canada has no more right
to expect special trade privileges there
than in Arizona or Oklahoma. If the
island is not a part Of the Union. there
can be no improperly in the request
OF our Canadian reighbors. however it
may embarrass the authorities at
Washington or force them to show
their hands.
Either Porto Rico is a part of this
republic or it is not

Rough on Jerry Simpson.


During the extra session of congress
early last year Jerry Simpson kept OBJ
jecting every little while to the execution
of the purpose of the session, the chang
ing of the tariff from the Wilson TO the
Dingley schedule of rates Simpson
Would fan the air with his arms and bore
everybody with his TRADES The big
speaker would on such occasions recline
his head on the back of his chair and
close his eyes.
I'm not alone in this Simpson was
vOciferating one afternoon; there are
many members here who share the same
views l have. My learned and distln-
guished friend from Texas, Mr.. Bailey,
fully agrees with me"
Mr. Bailey, who deteSted Simpson, arose
and said, sharply:
Il object to being cited as an author
ity. l do not agree with the gentleman
from Kansas. He should inform him
self"
The speaker woke up and raped for
order. In a drawing tone he ruled:
THE gentleman from Texas should not
make an unreasonable request OF the
gentleman from Kansas

CAESAR AND M'KINLEY.

The New York Sun is an imperialist
of mperialists. 1t believes in conquest
and colonial empire. It believes the
day of the republic has passed and
that the time has come for a large
standing army and a ruler who gov
erns subject peoples outside Of the con-
stitutiOn. 1t ridicules the Republican
convention for being so timid in it's
declaration OF imperial policies. Says
the Sun:
"The platform makers were afraid TO
declare the Republican doctrine of the
fun power of congress to iegislate for
the territories. Mr.. Mckinley supplied
the omission. He asserted the doctrine
in the identical language which the too
prudent gentlemen at Philadelphia re
jected because they thought it might
possibly conflict with future decision
of the supreme court"
And it points with pride to the fact
that Roosevelt is likewise an anti-con-
stitutional imperialist. who is willing
to involve the country in war if he can
thereby add 10 its reputation as a fight
ing power. II quotes from his speeches
and shows from his record that he
wanted to invade Europe during the
war with Spain over the protests of all
the European powers. This meets the
appreciation of the Sun. It saws their
speeches constitute better platform
than delegates to Philadelphia dared
to make. and adds: "The candidates
nave taught lesson to the timid and
the trimmers. The candidates made
the Platform this year, as the Sun
hoped and believed they would"
In the same column the Sun calls
attention to the fact that July p next
year will be the two thousandth ami
versary of the birth of julius Caesar
This great man, the greatest of all the
great men from whose lives and actions
we derive benefits even today. was
born on the 18th of July, 100 years r. G.
Caesar would be 1899 years old TODAY
if he We're alive. If proper. eelebra-
ton is to be arranged, one years time
will certainly be not too mNeh to make
preparations.
The Sun is at least consistent II
wants to celebrate Caesars anniver-
sary and the Inauguration of Mckinley
and Roosevelt at the same time.

Missed His Opportunity.

One of the best stories that occurs to
me Off-hand relates TO a Jew who kept a
sort Of combination pawnshop and sec
Ond-hand clothing store. One day he
went out and left the place in charge of
his son. When he came back ne said:
We'll, Isaac, how vas business ven
vas oud2''
Business vas good, fader." the son
said: ferry goot''
Vat did you SELF"
''NOthinss, but dot man wat buy de
damon ring yesterday come back an
pawned it,.
lind did you sell him Something's else?''
No, fader, e look as if e vas too much
discouraged TO buy anything
I'm you call dot doing gOOt DiZneSs

In spite of MacArthur's call for more
troops. another regiment is to be taken
from Manila and sent to China If we
had no other use for our army it would
be an easy matter to take part i'm the
restoration Of order in the Chinese en-
pire But we cannot carry on a con-
quest with an inadequate army and
furnish all the troops the English gov
eminent expects us to furnish for the
Chinese campaign at the same time.

seized it would take at least a half
century to obtain the required amount,
during which time the Chinese gov
eminent would die of starvation.
An estimate printed in the San Fran
cisco Examiner of the damages which
may be demanded by this government
places the amount ut nearly $3.50, 900, OO0
and experience has demonstrated that
other powers are never so modest in
their demands. It is based on the news
of the Pekin massacre, and is as fol-
lows:

The war, navy and state depart
ments have prepared such a statement.
and the account will be presented as
soon as communication can be restored
with the Chinese government. 1t is
further announced that experts in in
| ternational law, both in this country
and Europe, have been retained by the
Chinese government to defend the
claims that viii be made against it by
the powers of civilization. Enormous
fees have been placed at the disposal
of China's ministers in foreign coun-
! tries to gain the services of these eX-
perts.
Chinese diplomats are very busy
making preparations for the defense
and the government expects to make a
strong showing if the matter comes to
arbitration. Prevocation will be alleged
and an effort to mitigate the damages
and reduce the indemnity claims will
be made.
It does not seem possible, however
that tire Chinese legations in this coun-
try or in Europe viii be able to accom-
plish much in this direction, unless the
| latest news from Pekin is proven true
and the foreign legations are found
unframed.
The powers have been awaiting an
/ excuse too long already to seize Chi
nese territory. Il isn't at.all likely that
they will abandon so good Rretext as
they now have for dismembering the
ennnire

It is gratifying to know that there
is room to doubt the worst news re-
ceived from Pekin, but it is annoying
to grieve over the death of people who
may yet be alive. If Minister WI could
only set one straight message from his
government it would be relief for the
whole civilized world.
