The pertinence of these remarks to the
act of infamy perpetrated IN washington
on February 2S is pointed by the fact
that the head of the lobby which Went
to Washington to fight against the
people s policy of free trade with Puerto
Rico was Henry Oxnard, the admitted
champion of the sugar interests IN the
United States, as we'll as the confessed
antagonist of the expansion policy
brought about by our war with SPAIN
Mr.. Oxnard's activity in securing the
Is per cent. tariff from the Ways ana
Means Committee has been puDllsheus
repeatedly in the correspondence OF
every newspaper man who senas in'
telligence from Washington to this CITY
The support which he received from the
tobacco interests of the East is also a
notorious fact. Hence, despite excuses
and pretexts put forth by the men VINO
support the Puerto Rico monstroslty'
the public is forced to the conclusion
that the majority of the Republicans IN
the House Of Representatives were com
pelled to repudiate their own convictlolns
and to violate the convictions or the
American people under the pressure
exerted by the sugar interests, accord
ing to Mr.. Mounts plan, and re-en-
forced by the tobacco men of the East;
Without doubt this was a powerful
organization. 1t certainly was power
full enough to bend the authorities IN
Washington to its ends. Nevertheless,
we believe its power will prove as moth
ing against the convictions and purposes
of the American people.

'SGA4Gb0aM

Mr.. Mckinley admonished Congress,
in his annual message, that "our plain
duty was to give Puerto Rico free
trade; and his party leader on the floor
of the House declared in letter that it
could not be Withheld as it had been 'ac-
corded to every other State and Terri
tory, and to Alaska not organized into a
Territory Before the trust magnates
descended upon him and made him
swallow his convictions and Eat his
official words, President Mckinley would
have been the last man in America to
assert that the Constitution does not
follow the flag
Whatever he may choose to say on the
point now, it does follow it, but not as
fast as the trusts follow the Constitution,
and, under Republican national control,
root it up and trample upon it. We have
witnessed the abased servility of the
Administration and the Republican
Congress to the trusts in matters other
than the attempted Puerto Rican crime
What would our fathers, or what would
even the next preceding generation of
Americans, have thought of Treasury
official who should place himself in
intimate relations with the most oppres-
sive and obnoxious monopoly in the
country, and give 1t the free use of the
public revenues for gain, to the amount
of more than hundred million dollars2
But the people are forced to realize that
an Administrator and party owned,
controlled, and operated by an oligarchy
of trusts and monopolies will not, and
perhaps could not, stop at any Of
fence against Constitution, law, honor,
honesty or decency which their masters
might demand at their hands. The
only possible way to reach the trusts Is
through the destruction Of the great
political machine they have built up.
AS the Lincoln platform well states it,
"We welcome the opportunity offered
this year to take the Federal Government
out Of the hands of the Republican party,
which has abandoned American ideas
and Americans ideals. - Upon such
declaration of principles and purposes as
we can assume that the platform Of the
National Convention will be, a united
Democracy can 90 before the American
people with confidence, and ought to
achieve a sweeping victory.

M, Lynch Passes Away.

DIEp:-At his home in the eastern part
of Van Buren, at II o clockP. NJ, Wednes-
day, March 28th, after brief illness,
Michael Lynch, aged SO years,
In the passing away OF Mr.. Lynch
another vacancy is to be recorded IN the
ever timing ranks OF the pioneers Of Van
Buren, and Western Arkansas. Mr..
Lynch was born in Ireland in 1918 and
since 1S4S has been identified with the
interests of Van Buren. During the
greater portion Of his residence In our
city he was prominently identified with
its business interests, his fame as q
merchant and business man being more
than local. Liberal in advancing the
interests Of the community in which he
lived, he could always be counted on to
assist in any movement that was for the
Joint good of all, and much Of the ad'
vanceinent of our city Is due to his
energy and public spirit. OF late years
Mr.. Lynch s time and energy have been
turned toward supervising his farming
and real estate interests in Crawford
county, and in these as in all other
things his object always was to strive
for the best. He was not satisfied with
following in the old rut Of farming and
was constantly making experiments
slong new lines which, while they did
not always prove successful furnished
valuable object lessons to others.
Mr.. Lynch leaves two daughters to
mourn his demise, Mesdames d. W.
Brodie and Emily Creekmore. The
former has for number of years made
her home with him and looked after his
wants
Elaborate services in honor Of the de-
ceased were held yesterday morning at

much as possible. Obscurity and silence
reign in the hut, where in the warmest
places, either singly or crowded togeth-
er, the members Of the family pass the
state of Information.
During the course Of the famine OF
this year, the press has several times
noted cases of this kind, but up to the
present time it has been generally un-
known that the lejka was not a tempo
rary or accidental affair, but a regular
system elaborated by series OF gen,
erations of peasants, who are accustomed
to consider the half ration as the rule
a a sufficiency as an unattainable ideal,
and hunger as an inconvenience TO
which he can "adapt' himself by the
winters sleep. 1t would be interesting
TO obtain further details as to this state
of Information, as, aside from the moral
question involved, it is Of interest from
a physiological and psychological point
of view.

Bryan and the Treaty With Spain.

Mr., Bryan insists that his attitude
toward the ratification ofthe treaty with
Spain has been misrepresented and that
he has been misquoted. He said
Il did favor the ratification OF the
treaty, | believed then, and | still be-
lieve it was better to terminate the war,
give the volunteers chance to come
home, and stop the expense of large
army, and make the fight on resolution
declaring the nation 'spolicy. l believed
then, and still believe, that it was better
for the American people alone to settle
the Philippine question than to try 70
settle it by negotiations with Spain. II
the treaty had been rejected, those who
rejected it would have been held res
ponsible for the continuance of the war
and all that it implied, including the
risk of international complications NO
honest man criticises me for advocating
the ratification Of the treaty without
also stating that | favored a resolution
promising independence, and no reason.
able man can doubt that the adoption OF
such a resolution would have secured
peace in the Philippines.
"While our boys were dying in the
islands, while dead bodies were being
brought home and soldiers returned to
insane asylums, the Republican party,
instead Of taking up and settling this
question on American lines, proceeded
TO help the hnanciers establish the gold
standard and the national banks to
secure control of the nation s currency

course.
To be sure, It is not gratifying to our
national pride to have this salutary

President of the United States, But, In
the present case, that is nobody s fault
