OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
from Our Regular Correspondent

w ASHINGTON, FEB. 18TH, 1910.
No President ever made a more
abject surrender than Mr.. Mckinley
has made on the Porto Rican tariff
bill now before the House. He stat
ed positively in his annual message
that he favored free trade for Porto
Rico, and when the Republicans in
the House first talked about putting
duty on Porto Rican products, he
even went so far as to intimate to
Democrats he met that he would be
glad if they would help defeat the
proposed duty. Now, he has turned
complete somersauit, and an
nounced, in advance of its passage,
that he would sign bill imposing a
25 per cent duty. No wonder Re-
publieans IN Congress laugh when
Mr.. Mckinley is spoken of as their
leader.
The bill providing a territorial
form of government for Hawaii now
before the Senate, which means that
Hawaii will ultimately become q
State, naturally raises the question
of why the Hawaiians should be SC
much better treated than the Porto
Ricans? Surely no one outside of the
clique which is shaping the repub
lican policy can see any good reason
for making Hawaiians American cit
liens and the Porto Ricans colonia
subjects.
