Senator Stewart,S who has been
counted as countenancer If not an
actual supporter of imperialism, said
in speech against the Puerto Rice
tariff: II don't want any territory in
which the constitution does not follow
the flag. We cannot discriminate
against any section of our own country.
If our principles of free government
are not broad enough to cover all
territory under the flag, then we would
better bring back the flag.n

| 1T is extremely difficult to follow the
logic of the tariff takers. Theirs is a
peculiar logic, capable of being set
like the colored mans coon trap to
catch 'em going and coming. When it
is complained that the protective tariff
is tax upon the people the tariff tax
ers begin toshout, "The foreigner pays
the tax" BY this they mean that the
foreigner pays the duty, not the con-
sumer who buys of the importer.
But when it comes down to the Pu-
erto Rican tariff the tariff taxer I'M
limbers his logic and turns it the other
way. 1t is now proposed that all goods
sent from the United States to Puerto
Rico shall enter the island free as a
measure of charity toward Puerto
Ricans. sit would be manifestly I'M
just, says the advocate of this sort of
things, "for us to compel the Puerto
Ricans to pay a tax on the goods they
buy of US" And the same man who
awhile ago declared that the man who
sent the goods in paid the tax now de-
clares that the men who take them in
should not be compelled opay the tax.
And then, again, the tariff takers who
are advocating law permitting Unit
ed States products to enter Puerto
Rico free of duty advocate system
whereby everything shipped from Pu-
erto Rico to the United States Shall
pay tariff. "We do this in order to
raise money for Puerto Rico instead of
appropriating it out of the treasury of
the United States, says the advocate
OF this plan. ''By paying it out in the
way of tariff duties we do not miss it. ("
And this is the same fellow who, lit
tile while ago, was telling us that the
foreinger pays the tax. Now he tells
us that the importer pays it.
As remarked in the beginning, the
logic Of the tariff takers is extremely
difficult to follow World Herald.

Yielding to England.

When President Mckinley is not
busily engaged in pushing his imperial
istic policy he fills up the time by
bending his knees to the imperialism
of England.
The president has good promptel
in John Hay, secretary of state, who
was ambassador to England long
enough to learn the delights of s'loaf
ing about the throne" +.
Now Secretary Hay, approved by
Mckinley, demands that the Infamous
canal treaty be ratified for two especial
reasons.
First-There n'tany use in fortify-
ing the canal.
Second-If there were any use In
such fertilization England wouldn't
permit it.
This is not good logic, but that
doesn't worry Sir John Hay. He is
not trying to be logical, he is simply
endeayoring to serve her royal high
ness, the queen of England.
II the Notifications would be useless
why should England object to them:
Ii they would be useful why should
this nation abandon the idea of build
ing them at the dictation of England?
Unfortified the canal would afford a
hostile nation quick means of send
ing warships both ways to invest
American cities both on the Atlantic
and Pacific coast.
Fortified the canal would furnish
means of passage for American war;
ships and would double the efficiency
OF the United States navy
Any argument that justifes the
fertilization of American ports also
justities the fertilization of the 18TH
milan canal.
The people IS this cal9,tsa Ivy; ao not
desire to build canal for the purpose
of aiding nations that may become
hostile and therefore the suggestions
of Secretary Hay are not received
with faNor.-Chicago Democrat.

LaGrippe destroys the health by
paralyzing the nervous system, there
by undermining the very foundation
upon which life and health are built.
When the disease gets a hold on it's
victim it fills the blood with myriads
Of the disease germs which find their
way to the little nerve centers scat
tered throughout the body and there
begin their work of destruction.
Then follows the congestion Of the
small blood vessels; chilliness, fever,
cough, sore throat, sneezing, running
at the eyes, splitting headache and
pain in the spine. 1t is this intol-
cradle aching Of the body in general
and the sudden loss of strength
which proves beyond a doubt that
LaGrippe is disease Of the nerves.
