No Hardship to Porto Rico.

Meanwhile the Is per cent. of
the Dingley rates that will be col
Iected in Porto Rico on goods
brought there from the United
States will he paid into the Porto
Rican treasury for the exclusive
benefit of the island. On the 9TH
er hand, the 10 per cent. of the
Dingley rates that will be collect
ed by our Atlantic seaboard GUS
m-houses Oh goods brought here
from Porto Rico, will be scrupu-
lousy sent to the island, also for
the exclusive benefit of the Porto
Ricans. Goods from the Europe
an and other foreign countries
brought to Porto Rico will pay
the Oingley tariff rates, exactly as
if brought to New York. Now let
nobody feel in conscience bound
to say that in passing such a bill
we have selfshly and wickedly
broken faith with thepeople of Por-
to Rico, and have invented an OPP
pressive scheme for taxing them
without their consent. A great
deal of this sort of accusation has
appeared in the newspapers, and
1t is remote from the truth. I'm
der the arrangement provided by
the bill, the Porto Ricans will en-
JOY the stability and general pro-
lection assured thcm under the
sovereignty of the United States,
without paying a penny, directly
or indirectly, of federal taxes.
The small duty they will pay on
imports from the United States
simply gives them an easy and
convenient way to raise taxes for
their local expenses of administra-
ton, schools and public works.
As for the tax that will be collect
ed in the United States ON imports
from Porto Rico, this--according
to the unanimous opinion of all
American free.trade authorities for
the past half-century-will come
out of the pockets of the people of
the United Statas. Thus TO the
full extent of this tariff ON imports
from Porto Rico, we shall be lew

sympathy resolutions poor campaign

who is possessed Of an ounce of brains
knows that the fight between Great
Britain and the Beers is none of our
business. The Beers precipitated the
war and left England nothing TO do but
to fight. No matter how much we may
sympathize as individuals with one side
or the other, the thing for the nation to
do is to remain absolutely neutral. Nc

A SHAMEFUL ADMISSION.

An Oregon Newspaper reioices at the
prospect Of the Beers losing their indie
dependence and hopes for the complete
destruction Of their political autonomy
"a Independent states. We have also
heard ol public school teacher express
Ing the same sentiments TO his pupils.
We had not supposed persons calling
themselves Americans could be found Ia
n position Of public trust, or engaged in
moding public sentiment in a free coun-
try capable OF such treason TO the funda-
mental idea upon which our institutions
rest.
When the American colonies were
engaged In their memorable struggle
with the mother country what would
have been thought Of publisher or an
educator Of the rising generation who
would have expressed or even harborcd
the hope that we should not gain our
Independence, Or that we should lose
our identity as an autonomous people2
lie would have been called a Tory and
branded a. public enemy.
Now we are not engaged in that violent |
business. We believe In peaceful dis
cussion. We did not advise the Beers
to go TO war. We do not believe in war.
We believe the war In South Africa Ia
unjust and uncalled for on both sides,
But 40 far as II involves the right Of
ne people TO self.goycrnment, 30 far as
h involves the docrine Of maintaining
independent republics in any part Of the
World, as against monarchies Of any
orm, our sympalhiea are with the Beers.
