A PROTEST FROM PORTO RICO.
business Men of the Island Appeal to
Congress for Free Trade.

SAN JUAN. Porto Rico. March 12.-The
planters. business men. and manufacturers
Of the islaad mailed to Congress yesterday
a statement containing the following:
We note with regret the principle enun-
ciated by certain speakers Of Congress that
a tariff between Porto Rico and the United
States is the proper method Of raising rev
enue for this island To this we are Un-
changeably opposed. lcr the following rea-
sons:
"First-BecaGse taxation on our exports
means an embargo on our foreign com
merce.
"Seeond-Because curtailment Of our
commerce with the United States would
lock up cur products here and prevent us
from gaining our legitimate proportion Of
proht on our productions
We can never become independent
financially if forced to trade solely amnne
ourselves. We must have a market other
than Porto Rico, or else we cannot gain
wealth.
I've earnestly ask for free trade. believ-
ing that. with mutual interchange Of
products between the two countries the
United States will be more than gamer.
we are decidedly OF opinion that the
better method for raising that revenue will
be hv internal taxation, and for the fol-
lowing reasons:
"Ftrst-Because by that system no re-
striction will be placed on our commerce
with the United States.
Second-Bec the adoption Of that
system will be as simple in operation here
as il is in the United States.
I'VE now ask. as a right in equity. that
free trade with the United States be given
us. We ask bread as a right from our
mother. Do not, we pray, give us a stone.
We ask for an immediate decision"
