Puerto Rico and the Tariff.

At the present moment very formid-
able organizations OF American farmers
and other citizens are engaged in the at
tempt to prevent the adoption of Presi-
dent McKinley's recent advice to con-
gress to give free admission to the pre-
ducts of our new island possession,
Puerto Rico. Their arguments are nu-
merous, but may be reduced to two,
each of which may be expressed in a
single word. The first of these argu-
ments is sugar, the second is tobacco.
The men who are endeavoring with
great enthusiasm and with consider
able degree of success to develop great
sugar-beet industry in the United Sta5es
do not wish at presect to have a particle
OF additional competition from cane
sugar. Puerto Rico's product is not
large, but it is supposed that soil and
climate make feasible its rapid increase.
Its tobacco is of desirable quality, and
it's quantity could be greatly enlarged
with the improvement Of market op-
portunitjes. Puerto Rico's largest ex.
port crop in years past has been coffee,
which, OF course, does not compete with
products grown in the United States.
Having conquered Puerto Rico and
taken possession, we are under plain OBJ
legations to consider the welfare OF the
people of that island as carefully as We
once considered that of the people who

DAYS..

fou read OF quiet,
breathless days,
When skies arc blue,
and sunshine strays
Across green fields
and flower -decked hills,
And pearly dew
from the rose distik-
And as you read
the lines, how soon
You know twas all
Of aday in June!
Another tells of
sultry, dusty days
That swelter in
the suns IMPLYING rays
Whan distant landscapes
quiver in the heat,
And cattle seek the
forests deep retreat
Or loiter in the
cooling stream near by,
And this you know
at once was July.
Another sadly sighs and sings,
The green is growing brown,
The melancholy days
are slipping by;
The shadows stretch out farther,
and the year is running down.
Who could keep from dreams
of other days? Not l."
This is quite enough to answer
why the poets pensive frown,
And to tell you an
October day was nigh.
But who has told the glory
Of these January days,
With their simple, restful beauty,
and their unobtrusive ways?
Days that have the warmth of summer
and the quiet Of the fall,
And so noiseles in their passing
we are not disturbed at all
Bot to sing of skies and sunshine
in the winter seems absurd,
Which is possibly the reason
why no poets voice is heard.
Yet the theme deserves the effort
Of a mightier pen than mine,
And to such inspired songster
l respectfully resign.
If he does the subject justice,
praise must follow without stint,
Bot hope blizzard won't Be on
