President Mckinley was fully

United States over territory added

the president has wilted, and on
Thursday notified Chairman Payne
of the ways and means committee
General Grosvenor and Mr.. Dalzell
that, while he still adhered to his
views about free trade with Porto
Rico, as expressed in his annual
message, he would not urge them
to congress, but would sign the IS
per cent. Porto Rico tariff should
it come to him.
In weakness this almost beats
McKinley's record. He subordi>
mates the constitution and the views

SUBMITTED TO
THE PUBLIC

The Sentinel presents to it's subcrib-
bers today its supplement known as a
"Brief History OF the Grand Valley. "
The history portion Of the little book
has been carefully prepared and it com
prehends readable, concise history Of
the settlement OF the Grand valley.
No such short acsount OF the early
history OF the valley has ever been pro-
duced in this form before and the com
ments and reception it is receiving is
very fiattering
Together with the short history there
is contained in the book sketches Of
some OF the prominent citizens, firms
and corporations of Grand Junction.
These have been written in readable
form and will be an advertisement of in
estimable benefit to the town and the
individuals who have been subscribers
to the edition.
geographically it is the consensus OF
opinion that 1t is the handsomest edition
of its kind over issued here. The paper
upon which the work is printed is the
very finest calandered 80-pound book,
and is nner than any paper ever used
before in any special advertising edition.
The covers are rich and beautiful. They
are made from paper imported from Ger
many 1t is called Skytogen and has
the appearance of leather.
Toe half tones OF individuals and the
plants of the Sugar factory and the
Grand junction Milling and Elevator
company appear in splendid style. Sew
eral of the cuts used have appeared be-
fore in other editions, but as they cover
ed the exact ground desired to be illus
trated they were used. Altogether The
Sentinel is proud of this work. This is
the second special edition that has been
issued from this office in the past five
years. II the present one, which is far
the handsomer effort, receives the favor
able comment of the former from all
parts OF the country, the proprietors Of
the paper will feel that they have been
well repaid and that the city and coun-
ty have been the beneficiaries OF their
effort
AS in all special editions no money
has or will be made out OF the present
one, but this fact has nothing to do
with the case. An end was aimed at in
bringing the Grand valley before the
country in this manner. and it is felt
that that work will have been accom-
plished when the work has had its full
distribution.
The work OF securing and compiling
the sketches OF the business men was
performed by Mr.. Arthur T. Sargent
and Mr.. Rufus G. Rohrabacher. both
able newspaper writer's of experience and
gentlemen who have furnished this class
of work to papers IN number OF the
largest cities in this country and in
Canada. They go from here to the
Colorado Springs Telegraph, to issue
special mining edition. There work has
been entirely satisfactory and they leave
behind them a number OF warm friends
made in their short stay in this city.
Altogether the work has been do
clared we'll done and the only compensa-
ton which the Sentinel expects to reap
will be the satisfaction OF having done
something for the upbuilding of the
country and the city where it is publish
cd, which has been the mission Of The
Sentinel since first established.

THE CASE OF PORTO RICO

The people of Porto Rico have
every reason to feel disappointed
and hurt at their treatment by the
party in power Porto Rico well
coined the American soldiers.
Porto Riuan leaders, with the fer>
vor Of semi-tropical oratory, wel>
coined the moment when they
would be admitted to share the
advantages afforded by the flag of
the great republic.
Prior to the war the products OF
Porto Rico were admitted to Spain
free of duty. When the island
passed into the possession Of the
United States Spain laid tariff on
its products. At the same time the
Porto Rioans found themselves de
barred from shipping to the United
States, because the customs tariff
stood against them the same as
against England, France or any
other country.
In his message to congress a
few weeks ago. the president said
that the United States was obligat
ed by every consideration Of de>
cency, humanity and good faith to
admit the products of the island
duty free, the same as goods are
permitted to pass from one state to
another.
The sugar and tobacco trusts at
once took the field against the plan
to admit Porto Rican goods free,
and the result is that by the bill
approved by the house yesterday
such goods must pay IS per cent.
of the Dingley tariff. President
Mckinley himself changed his pos
siti on so far as TO use his influence
to dragoon into line republican
members who declared that such a
tariff imposed on the products OF
American territory is and must be
unconstitutional.
The reports OF the military gov
ernor of Porto Rico show that
without free trade with the United
States the people of the island will
be far worse off than they were
when they owed allegiance to
Spain.
Not only is the constitution vio'
lated, therefore, but people who
came willingly and trustingly un-
der the stars and stripes, find them
selves condemned to period Of
suffering and semi starvation be-
cause the sugar and tobacco trusts
will it SO. Rocky Mountain News

is all right replied the young man
with a knowing look, "but some
thing may happen to me in twenty
five or thirty years" A pension
claim never dies. After it is filed
an examination is ordered. This
may reveal no cause for pensioning
and the claim may be rejected.
But the claim goes on. 1t is filed
away in its proper place and at any
future time the claimant may have
it brought forth and new exams
nation ordered. These claims
filed now will be in the pension
office a quarter of a century from
now, when with advancing age dis>
abilities may develop which can be
attributed to the service in the war
with Spain and then the pension
will be granted. There is prudent
thrift in the filing Of these pension
claims which will be vindicated a
quarter of century hence, if not
sooner. A pension claim put in
now is in the nature of a nest egg

AT WORK ON SAW MILL
Shaw Lumber Company Buys
Part Of Tietjen Tract.

E. G. Bloomer, the representative here
Of the A. c. Shaw Lumber company, of
Tacoma, closed the deal a day or two
since for twenty.four acres of the Tietjen
tract, three.quarters Of mile out on the
Bonanza road, to be used as a saw mill
site.
The machinery for this mill arrived early
In December, since when Mr.. Bloomer
has been looking for a suitable place to
erect the mill. He is an experienced saw
mill man, knows the requirements and
understands the Importance Of an ad.
vantageous location and convenient sur.
roundings. He has, therefore, bided his
time until he could get what he wanted,
which he says he has now secured.
MINER readers will remember that he
found soon after his arrival here two tracts
OF timber land near town that suited him
IN every particular, except that there is
every indication that the land contains
minerals, and he declined to purchase a
probable contest.
The work OF erecting the buildings and
installing the machinery begins imme.
diately, and the mill will soon be In opera.

miles from the state line of Massachu.
sets to the state line of Maine; the
Portsmouth & Dover railroad, II miles
from Portsmouth to Dover, and the
Portland & Rochester railroad, from
Rochester to Portland, Me-, SO miles,
paving therefor in Boston & Maine stock
issued for that purpose.
Having purchased the old Eastern, the
Boston & Maine proceeded to reconstruct
it by laying second track and abolish
ing all the grade crossings between New.
buryport and Portsmouth These
changes. which involve an expenditure of
about $500, 900, all of which is borne by
the railroad, are now well under way.
The Manchester & Milford is about half
graded and will open for business next
spring. It's cost will be about $500, 900
The Boston & Maine has completed
the equipment OF its locomotives and cars
with the automatic couplers and power
brakes required by the act of congress,
having expended for this purpose since
July 1, 1895, nearly 100000. all of
which has been charged to current ex.
penses.
The Boston & Maine has carried on
two highly successful experiments de.
signed to save the passengers from the
discomfort and damage caused by smoke,
cinders and dust. Coke has been substi
tuted for coal as fuel ON hundred pass
enger and switching locomotives with
such satisfactory results that its use is to
be extended to larger part OF the pass
enger service. The cost does not much
exceed that of coal.
