the tax on beer, as n reward to the
brewers for their support in the elec-
tior. There is absolutely no hope of
reducing tho Dingley rates 30 as to
deprive the trusts of the tariff that
enables them to sell to foreigners
cheaper than they sell to Americans.
The invasion of fereign markets by
American manufacturers, which began
long before Mckinley was elected, and
which has been the most startling
economic event of this decade, is no
mere flash in the pan. Conditions are
not going to change for the worse and
compel American manufacturers to
Withdraw fccr; ta0so markets. 1t is
evident that the concern which is able
to compete successfully with English
and German rivals in European,
Asiatic, or African markets. has no lust
claim to further protection which
enables 1t to cxtort larger prices ut
home than abroad. But there is no
hope of relief from this situation for q
long time to come.
Many people believe that all the con-
stitutional questions arising out of the
colonies are to be decided by the
Supreme Court in the cases that are to
be heard on December nth. Such,
however, is not the case, these cases
running only TO the right of the Presi-
dent to impose the Dingley rates of
duty on the Philippines and on Porto
Rico before Congress legislated for the
latter. The question of the right of
Congress to impose duties differing
from those obtaining in the rest Of the
country on Porto Ricau goods, after it
has established form of government
for that island, is not involved Mt all in
the cases and cannot be decided in
connection with them.

Roosevelt for Their Mititnrtsm
and Bryan for His Free silver

NEW YORK, July 1s-In response TO
call issued a few days ago. a number
of gold Democrats and anti-imperialists
met in this city tonight TO discuss the
methods OF bringing a third party ticket
before the public. An address was adopt
ed assailing President Mckinley for his
Philippine policy and his "scandalous ap-
pointments'' TO federal offices; character
izing Gov. Roosevelt as the frank EN-
bodiment OF militarism," and declaring
that the Republican party stands for all
forms of special privilege, Mr.. Bryan.
the address says. is as Objectionable as
President Mckinley. "A vote for the
Democratic ticket says the address.
means vote for free silver; it means
still further debauching of the civil ser
vice. packing of the supreme court by
men to be governed by the will of the ex-
ecutive."
The address asks independents TO unite
in the support of candidates upon some
such platform as followss
First-A return TO the political doctrines
the constitution
Second-The recognition that not only
Cuba and the Philippines. but Puerto
Rico and Hawaii are independent
Third-Genuine monetary reform.
Fourth-Civii service reform.
Fifth-The abolition OF special privileges,
whether OF tariff or any other origin.
We are not concerned solely with this
selection but with the future OF American
political life. We are ready and anxious
to Join with others In forming a party
which shall adopt a platform presenting
these issues
Speeches were made on the address by
DR.. Everett OF Massachusetts; George c.
Ripley, OF Minneapolis. and others.
A resolution was adopted authorizing
the chair TO appoint a committee 70 issue
an invitation to the supporters of "A third
ticket movement to meet in Indianapolis
on July S. to take such steps as may be
necessary to place such ticket In the
