SUSTAINs GOYERNMENT.
View of Ex-Secretary Long on Su-
preme Court Decision.


Denver, Col, June -3--John D. Long,
secretary of the navy, passed through
Denver en- route to washington after a
visit of about two weeks with his family,
now stopping at Colorado Springs
While here he gave out for the first
time statement of his views on the
supreme court decision in the Porto
Rican cases. It follows:
THE decision of the Downes case sus-
tainS the government and Is in accord
ance with the views Of the Republicans
in congress. I understand that 1T recog-
nizes fully and clearly the power of con-
gress to legislate in its discretion with
regard to the revenue relations of our
insular possessions. Any other construc-
ton of the constitution than this would
have made the regulation of our rela-
tions with the new territories a maze
of inextricable confusion and ine1H-
cheney and an example of how not to
do it and would have resulted in the
stay Of our commercial progress It is
not easy to detail the embarrassment in
which the administration OF 1nSular af-
fairs would have been involved Their
status is so essentially different from
that of the states of the union that the
same legislation for both Is simply inn
practicable. This is so clear that it goes
without saying. and this decision is for
tunate-
there will be those who will say that the
court has been governed by the necessi-
ties of the case and the interests of the
administration. On the contrary, be-
lieVe no other decision was Just1fable as
pure matter of constitutional law and of
precedent 1t is the decision outlined by
John Quincy Adams by John Marshall
by Daniel Webster, by the most eTnln-
ent authorities and by previous decis-
ions of the court iaself. In the old pro-
slavery days the effort was made to
carry slavery into the territories under
the theory that the constitution went
there with it, but that doctrine never
found favor in popular opinion which
is now confirmed by the present de-
cision of the supreme court
1.-THE country will breathe freer, and
the administration, confirmed in its
views and strengthened in its work, will
carry it ON in the interest OF all con-
cerned with renewed assurance Of uni
versal good results

CHEESE FOR PORTO RICO.
American Dairymen Have Strong
European Opposition.

New York. June "a special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
r A Pearson, assistant chief Of the
dairy division of the department of az
riculture, who has just returned from
three months tour Of inspection in Cuba
and Porto Rico, believes that American
dairymen can as well supply the mar
kets Of those islands as can foreigners.
He calls special attention to the de-
mand for cheese in those countries, say
ing that at present most of this supply
comes from Holland, Denmark, Italy
and Switzerland, and he believes that
Americans can deliver just as good quail
ity of dairy products as can foreign
countries. and that it will not be many
years before American dairymen have
established a good trade in Cuba and
Porto Rico.

DISPUTES WITH CANADA.
No Steps Being Taken Towards Early
Settlement

New York. June 3.-No proposal has
been made to the state department by
the British government for the re-
assembly of the joint high commission
to settle questions in dispute between
the United States and Canada. says the
Washington correspondent of the Her
aid Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the Canadian
premier, has frequently alluded recent
" to the prospect of an early meeting
of the commission. Canadians are
deeply interested in the question of the
establishment of reciprocal relations
with the United States, and this coun-
try is willing that the commission
should reassemble, as has been made
plain by it's attitude to Great Britain,
but nothing is known here of the pros
poets of immediate action

Flames in the Jersey Colliery Are Be
yond Control

New York, June 3.-The fire at the
Jersey colliery of the Delaware. Lack
awanna & Western company at Wilkes
barre. Pa, which has been raging for
ten days, is now beyond control There
is no chance of putting it out by the
method now employed of pouring water
down the shaft.
A conference of officials has been held
to devise a better means OF fighting the
fire. AS a result the fire probably will
be left to itself until a shaft can be
sunk to reach the workings at a point
at the back of the fire and an effort
made to extinguish it in that way.
