EDITOR BooHR, is exceedingly
wroth because the Democratic
State Central Committee, which
met in Reno last Saturday, gave
the Silver Party three of the six
delegates to the national Demo-
cratic Convention. He also finds
fault because the delegation was
not pledged to Bryan, and in this
respect he has legitimate kick
coming. However, there is no
need of pledging the three Silver
delegates for Bryan; they will sup
port him first, last and all the time,
and we believe the Democrats will
do the same; still it might have
been a good plan to pledge them,
as editor Boohr suggests.

A NUMBER of laborers in New
York have been reading about
the rising scale of Mckinley
wages. They had been getting
a dollar a day, and asked for SI.25.
They got their answer in the
shape of a regiment of troops who
will argue the matter with them
for a cold lead standpoint. These
people should be made to under
stand that the talk of rising wages
is not meant to be taken except
in a purely Pickwickian sense and

comes on the stage just before the

Their we consider the effect of the
passage of the Porto Rico tariff
measure, the greater seems to be
the crime this country has COM
mitted against the Porto Ricans,
people who, not like the Cubans,
made little resistance against Gen
eral Miles when, in 1898, he occu-
pied the island of Porto Rico. The
Porto Ricans were very tired of
Spanish rule, and when our troops
took the island her people natural
ly looked forward to change in
government which would be bene-
fetal to them. Promises were made
by this government that Porto Rico
should enjoy every advantage ac-
corded to other portions of the
United States. How have these
promises been kept? For the past
two years the people of Porto Rico
have been worse off than if they
had continued under Spanish rule.
The mismanagement of the indus
tries of the island by the present
American administration has been
such that whole crops of sugar,
coffee and tobacco have rotted in
the fields or decayed in the ware
houses. We have cut Porto Rico
off from her market with Spain and
Cuba and given her 10 chance to
export her products to her rightful
market, the United States. AS a
consequence the people of Porto
Rico are to-day in a woeful con-
dition. Thousands of the poorer
class are on the verge of starvation,
while those who were once in af-
fluent circumstances are now
barely able to subsist.
And to crown all this comes the
passage of bill which will con-
tinue the same conditions in the
island, if not make them worse.
The Porto Ricans are to be sub
jected to a tariff which will prevent
them from exporting their pro
ducts to this country, and their
crops will still have to rot in the
fields or mould in the warehouses;
yet this government has granted
100000 Tor the relief of the
Porto Ricans. In looking for
reason for such policy as this
none can be found except that this
government must naturally treat
the people OF Cuba and the Philip
pine Islands the same as they
have the Porto Ricans. The ex
ports of Porto Rico to this country
under a free trade system would
not, to any great extent, effect the
sugar or tobacco industry of this
country, but the exports from
Cuba and the Philippines would
be the ruination of several mil
lionaire sugar raisers of this
country Therefore the people of
Porto Rico must suffer and the
people of this country still pay
high duty on these articles of food,
while called upon at different
periods to contribute money for
the starving people of Porto Rico.
There is no doubt that the Porto
Rican tariff bill was passed at the
instigation of the trusts and cor
porations of this country, and for
their benefit, and theirs alone.
Nor is there a doubt about the
fact that the conscientious, liberty
loving people of this free country
% will repudiate this Infamous
act of the present administration
at the next election.

The question OF heredlty. or the

perfection. The tops are Of delightful
variety. both In size and construction.
The largest. or father OF all tops. Is
more than a foot In diameter. and
proportlonately heavy. .
Some are solid; others contain a
flock OF little ones which fly out, when
the top Is lifted. and spin away by
themselves. Others pull into a spiral
or ladder OF successive tops. One
draws up into a lantern, and spins
cheerily In that form.
The methods OF spinning are almost

One OF the most delicate perform

Another Is TO toss II spinning into

A third Is TO fling II up and catch

A large. heavy top Ia sometimes set
In motion by rolling the peg in the
bite OF a cord, one end being held In

done ten times In succession.
