Plain Duty.

Mckinley has said that it is our
plain duty to give the people of
Porto Rico free trade.
In matter of plain duty, any
thing less than 100 per cent. re-
solves it into plain defiance of
duty. Proposing to tax the Porto
Ricans % per cent. was defiance
of duty. Shaving that robbery
down to 15 per cent. does not make
this defiance of duty any the less
outrageous.
Making present to the people
of Porto Rico of $2,OOO,OOO is not
compliance with duty. 1t is sim
ply shifty endeavor to smother
public criticism and to give little
with one hand, while with the 9TH
or, property and liberty are stolen
from the people of the unfortunate
island. When the patriots of the
revolution fought England, it was
because of taxation without repre-
sentation. That was one of the
grievances which the forefathers of
this nation refused to endure, and
now. William Mckinley is doing
exactly what George III did. Con-
sistenoy is not to be expected of
Mckinley, but shrewd political
triokery is leading trait in his
character. In this matter there
appears no particle of consistency,
and for once there is absent any
evidence of political shrewdness.
If Mckinley knows anything about
the sentiments of the people, he
knows that they are opposed to this
high handed taxation without
representation.
His wise advisors know this and
are protesting against the political
suicide contemplated by the Re-
publican President. Bryan is in
luck just now and Mckinley is
playing a game which he cannot
fail to lose.
The empire is not yet established
nor is Mckinley crowned king to
play the stupid role of second
George III, Mckinley may gain
the friendship of the trusts, but he
will lose the Presidency.

Uarnegie's Big Profits.

New York Daily News.
Carnegie's answer to Partner
Friok's demand for $1O,OOO,OOO
more than he is willing to pay for
the latter's interest in the steel
plants is another piece of strong
testimony to the profitableness of a
business protected" by the Gov
eminent against foreign competi-
ton.
According to Carnegie, Frick
paid for his interest in the steel
company less than eight years ago
not quite two hundred dollars IN
in cash, and his claim for sixteen
millions is, of course, declared to
be excessive.
An Investment of two hundred
dollars certainly ought not to net a
man profit of two millions a year
lin fact, it should not net him one
million, which is but little more
than the amount Carnegie is will
ing to concede to trick.
Cernegie's answer in this suit
may win his case for him, but it
ought to lose him the Government
subsidy that he enjoys in his bust
ness under the Republican Tariff
act. What is more, the country
ought not to pay him several thous-
and per cent. over and above its
cost for the armor plate that is
needed in the construction of war
ships.

in any government act until the
year 1864, when, at the suggestion
of the director of the mint, ex-Gov.
Pollock, of Pennsylvania, "In God
we trust" was stamped on the cop
per cent piece. Before that time
the "E Pluribus Unium" had been
the motto. Strange to relate, "E
Pluribus Unium" on coins never
was authorized by law
