The buncombe view Of the bill ap-
promietiug $4,000 900 for Lhc fuse and
benefit Of Porto Rico" is that it j. "Porto
Rico money paid back" senator For

back to Them for thcir own benefit"
Even ST. Intelligent paper a. the New

tho president proposes that we shall give
back 10 the islanders the money which
we have taken from them by taxing
their products.
y matter of fact the s. 09j, 10 was
stated by the president to have been
"collected on products coming from that
island to the ports Of the United States
under duties fixed by the Dinghy act"
The American importers of course paid
the duties, and proceeded as usual to add
the same to the price Of The articles.
The 50 900 600 was therefore paid by the
American consumers Of Porto Rican
dutable articles tobacco, sugar, fruit,
etc.
President McKinley's grand scheme of
charity, which he substitutes for what in
his annual message he described to he
the "plain duty" of giving Porto Rico's
products "free access to our markets" is
simply the diversion for the support of
his military government in that island of
1000 900 paid by our consumers, and a
part Of the treasury balance, precisely
the same as are the duties collected from
European imports. 1t is an approprla-
ton of our taxpayers money pure and
simple. Aud yet the Republicans of the
house voted duty on Porto Rican com
merce both ways under the preteXt of
avoiding an appropriation" for that

of time will be required for the support
ers of the administration and for the
president himself to find out what they
do mean and what they want Assured
", they can never go to the country
asking support unless they have made 1t
plain what they propose to do and what
they wish to be supported IN. Mr.
Whitelaw Reid and others are beginning
to make it plain that they want to be in
structed on the right way of getting out
of the hobble in which he and the other
peace commissioners have put the
country by the treaty with Spain.
Two or three inquiries ought to be
made in congress:
First-On the Cannon bill, which APP
propriates the duties collected by the
United States on imports from Porto
Rico-about - 900 ,000-to the relief OF
the people of Porto Rico. 1t is under
stood that all these duties have been paid
under protest and will probably be re-
covered by the, importers under de
cision of the supreme court that trade
is free with Porto Rico since it came
within the jurisdiction of the United
States, there being q statute to that
effect as follows:

HE NEW GRAZ GOD.

When Napoleon said SIN fifty years
Europe will be republican or Cossack"
he was describing in the terms then
available a condition that is rapidly com
ing to pass. The revolutionary spirit
which dominated the entire civilized
world except Russia when Napoleon
prophesied was a revolt against the en-
slavement of the individual man, a plea
for his liberation and elevation. The
Cossack, Russia. represented in its per
lection the old barbarism of brute force,
the millions of the masses as passive in
struments for the qualification of the
greed and arrogance Of the few.
Napoleon saw that one idea or the 9TH
er was destined to win. But he did not
see-indeed, how could he have fore
seen that not Russia but England was
to be the great apostle militant of "Cos.
sackism.'
Call it 'earth hunger call it "march
of the flag" call it duty and destiny"
call it benevolent assimilation" call it
''imperialsm' or "eapltalism" or what
not, it Is still the same thing-the en-
bodiment of the crude passions of the
tossuCh, liic ucSdllOn Vi justice, Huundll-
| ity, fair dealing, freedom, peace. And
the cult of the new great god has the
/ RhOdeses and Rothchilds and Chamber
lains, the RoclefellerS and Hannas and
McKinleys as its high priests. In South
Africa we see the republics shedding
their life-blood in battle against the
Gold Fields Trust of the Rand and the
Diamond Trust in Kimberley. In the
Philippines and in Porto Rico we get
another glimpse of the same "far-nung
battle-line," not to speak of what We
see tight here at home.
Tyranny has discarded its old battle
cry, "The divine right of kings and
has taken up the new cry, "The divine
right of the dollar" The new great goo
is potent in peace and In war with hi:
mighty battalions of gold pieces and Of
helpless men, and the battle seems to be
going his way.

PERTINENT QUESTIONS BY EDWARD
ATKINSON.

OH what Il tangled web we weave
When first we practise to deceive
The lingo directors of the admins
tratiou planned the capture of Cuba and
Porto Rico. The English saying is, "If
you scratch a lingo you find pirate
Some of the less astute also went for the
Philippine Islands (see the instructions
first given to Commodore Dewey by
Teddy Roosevelt, acting secretary of the
navy. They have got Porto Rico and
now they wish they hadn't. They have
been trying to get the Philippine Islands,
but are beginning to hesitate and will
presently be trying to find out how to
get rid of them.
Mr.. Richard Olney thinks we can't get
out. but shows i'm the clearest manner
what an idotic thing il was to get in;
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid in his speech in
Boston begins to show the most solid
and substantial reasons why we should
get rid of the Philippine Islands; while
Prof Schurman proposes to complete
benevolent assimilation" by giving the
people of the Philippine Islands the same
constitution under which they were
thoroughly organized and were conduct
ing an orderly system of government,
which the president of the United States
destroyed by military orders, sacrificing
the lives of Gen. Lawton and hundreds
of others in an attack on what is now
admitted by his spokesman ought to have
been let alone.
Prof. Schurman proposes to leave to
the Philippine Islanders the complete
control of their own affairs. with one
exception, namely, the taritf-"eXcept
the tarif.n Why except the tariff
Does he not let the cat out of the bag
What else will the gang find worth
fighting for in the Philippines except to
control the tariff: Prof. Schurman is
too honest. He has exposed the whole
plot. The main argument for holding
the Philippine Islands is as stepping
stone TO China. Prof. Schurman pro
poses TO cut of all communication with
China by shutting out the Chinese from
the Philippines, who are the only in
dustrious and honest people who keeI
faith in matters of trade or who thrive
in the tropics. Queer open-door to China
that would be.

that Mr.. Richard Olney is wrong, and
that for every possible reason, especi

which the constitutional rights of al
persons within the jurisdiction of the
