THE PASSING OF OUIGG

How sharper than serpent's tooth 1t Is to
have d thankless "Old man. Such must be the
reflection of Lemuel Ely Quigg. who yesterday
authorized the announcement that he was going
10 abandon the presidency of the New-York
County Committee and did not care how soon
his successor was chosen. Mr.. Quigg's situation
is not exactly of a sort to inspire the universal
heart with deep sense of compassion, and yet
it is probable that many Republicans to whom
his personality is not attractive and who have
found his political proceedings odious will feel
that devoted servant has been abominably
treated by his master. Mr.. Quigg entered Mr.
Platt's service as a young man, without much
experience, but with spirit willing that an
excessive degree of cruelty was indicated In the
answering purpose to make him do, In his own
name, all the wicked and foolish work of the
Republican machine. But that work was OBJ
viously congenal TO him, it may be said, and so
II has seemed TO be. Yet who can positively say
that he might not have obeyed saner and more
reputable orders with greater pleasure at
the outset. and thus have Aeen educated into an
appreciation of wise and honest political policies
and so fortified morally that he would have
been able to adhere to sound principles as the
rule of his public life? 1t seems like the heart
less betrayal into ruin of an ambitious and
talented young man who was capable of win
ming enviable distinction in the service of his
party and the country.
Considering only the present political situa-
ton which Mr. Plat has brought about I'm this
county through the fundamentally of Mr.
Quigg. we cannot wonder that the County Com
mttee demands new president. During the
three melancholy years which began with the
formation of the plot to turn over the govern
ment of the enlarged city of New-York TO Tam
many Hall rather than have 1t intrusted to a

except in the confusion over the novelty OF
customs tariff being levied for purposes Of local
taxation, course warranted in this case by the
peculiar conditions OF the island and fairly en-
titled to trial before being denounced. 1t no
more violates pledges given to Puerto Rico than
would the levying by Congress of direct tax
for building road in the island.
The substantial vote by which the bill was
passed is gratifying testimony to the ability OF
the Republicans In Congress to face the prob
lens of expansion and act them as actual
situa tons demand. undeterred by the msrepre-
sentation Of enemies or the qualms Of friends
They have not been driven into making prece-
dent which might embarrass, as In the Philip
pines, but have prepared the way to a needed
final settlement of the constitutional power of
the Government in outlying possessions. AT the
same time they have given Puerto Rico an open
door to prosperity and practicable means. finan-
cial and administrative. for conducting the af-
fairs of the island. Only little time Is needed
to prove the value of that work and silence
SANDER and calm fears. The sooner the act OF
the Senate can be followed by the signature of
the President and the beginning Of the regen-
Grafton Of Puerto Rico, the better for Puerto
Rico for the United States and for the Repub-
lican party. Speedy action is good patriotism
and also good politics.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1900-04-04
SENATE AND PUERTO RICO

The action OF the Senate yesterday on Puerto
Rico brings distinctly nearer the restoration of
prosperity 10 that island. If the House is not
ready TO agree at once to the Senate amend
ments, conference between the two houses
should result in a speedy harmonizing of differ
ences. The bill as it comes from the Senate
effectually maintains the principle of separate
legislation for our new territories as their ind-
vidual needs may require, which was the most
important feature of the House bill. 1t also
provides for civil government. and opens the
doors for the speedy regulation of the CONNER
cial affairs of Puerto Rico by the Puerto Ricans
themselves. These changes ought TO commend
IL 10 those who ina CINE the existence of a dis
position to Cypress the island, and will do so to
all who not simply unreasOning from senti-
mentality or bitter partisanship.
No doubt the bill will still be denounced as
taxation without representation" But Terri
tories always have been taxed without repre-
sentation and the abuse for which that phra Sc
somewhat inaccurately stands a symbol is
merely the use of the taxing power TO place
heavier burdens on the unrepresented than on
the represented. The Puerto Rican legislation Is
not subject to that reproach. Congress taxes IN
represented Puerto Rico Just as it taxes the I'M
represented District of Columbia. It is the local
legislature for both. Nobody else at the pres
gress levies tax there for the uses of local
government. just as it may levy one for policing
and paving the city Of Washington The fact
that the tax is a customs duty makes no differ
ence The octroi duties which prevail in many
cities of Europe are nothing but local customs
duties levied on goods passing into them for
the support Of local government. There is moth
ing strange in such a tax. It may be wise or
unwise to raise revenue in that particular way
instead OF from lands and houses. So too. il
may be an open question whether direct taxes
or internal revenue taxes set apart for Puerto
Rico. or low duties set apart In the same WAY
would best furnish revenue for the local needs
of Puerto Rico The lawmaking power for
Puerto Rico, which in this case is the Congress
of the United States has thought that the
duties would be fairest and most easily borne
paid as they would be in the first instance. bv
the merchants who would get the earliest re-
turns from reviving trade, and who at present
are better able 10 pay taxes than the impover-
ished landowners. That is a question fairly
within fits discretion
There might be some force in the talk about
oppression of unrepresented Puerto Rico II Con-
gress were TO levy special and higher taxes on
IL than on the home Territories for Federal Dur
poses. But il has done such thing. 1t levies
no taxes on Puerto Rico for Federal purposes
and for local purposes levies a tax of which
Americans trading with Puerto Rico must bear
a share instead OF putting the whole burden on
the island If that is oppression Of Puerto Rico.

Republican whom the Republican machine could
not control and which are ending in success
full revolt the men over whom Mr.. Quigg has
exercised his delegated authority have seen MIN
busily achieving an unbroken record OF biun-
ders and failures. Doubtless they ought to hold
Mr.. Plat responsible, for they know that every
act OF Ouigg has been the act Of Plat, having
long waited In vain for the principals perrnls-
sion to repudiate the agent. They have wanted
nothing more than a mere shrug of the shout
ders by way of n sign that they were at liberty
to make q change of leadership, and In the lack
OF such n token they have recognized, some
times with surprise but always with certainty
convincing proof that the disciple was oDeylnR

been injurious to the party and Illuminating TO
themselves but II can at least be said for them
that they have not enjoyed it and that the nom
ipal leader whom they about to depose can
not accuse them of treachery.
1t is high time for n change in the presidency
of the County Committee II the Republican Or
ganization desires to command respect and do
efficient work in the important and difficult con-
test which is near at hand. How far lost conf
dence can be regained and the party put In
condition to recover the strength which has been
frittered away, win recruits and cast a satlsfac-
tory vote in November the progress of the cam
paign will show. We hope that Mr. Quigg VIII De
replaced By q man who deserves and is capaDie
of enlsting the loyal and jealous support or all
Republicans man distinguished for aDllty'
integrity, courtesy, unsefshness and moral
courage. The prompt nomination of Mr. BldweI
for the office which Mr.. Quigg is about TO vacate
suggests the agreeable reflection that he Is pos
sessed of many excellent qualities ana some
special qualifications for party leadership, Dut
nevertheless his appointment could scarcely ran
to bring questions of political propriety under
discussion. to provoke the censure of an element
whose support the party cannot afford to alien
ate and to supply the enemy with ammunlton
which 1t would know how 10 use. Since the
time Of Collector Arthur there has been great
change Of popular sentiment In relation to the
suitable limits of political activity on the part
of Federal officeholders. Mr. Bidwell holds the
most important Federal office in New-fork, and,
aside from the matter Of patronage many voters
are sure to feel that so long as he retains II all
his time, thought and energy belong TO the
Government. If he and those who appear 10
favor his candidacy for the presidency OF the
County Committee deem this a trivial consider
alton we venture to assert that they are mis-
taken 1t is time when whatever advantages
the Republican party possesses need to De
