EDITOR OF PLA1N DEALER.
Dear Strive quote the following
(from memory from the columns OF
your paper. tUncle Adams went down
to Q. F. Robinson's last Monday on a
visit and because he would not return
home with his son Asher, they are
trying to send him to independence,
which Is very unjust and we think
will be prevented. lie is SO years old
and childish, but not crazy"
A rather sweeping Indictment
against "they''.his children, if true.
The facts are his children (any and all
of them) are both able and willing to
take as good care of father Adams as
could be wished for, the is possessed
with the delusion that they are all in
a plot to chloroform him; as he says,
and get him out Of the way, and as a
consequence he will not live with any
of them. They are further willing to
pay any reasonable compensation for
bis care and keeping, could they find
any one willing to assume the care
and keeping of him where he is willing
to stay, but SO far no one has been
willing to assume the responsibility.
Under the circumstances think it is
not only duty, but an act of kind
ness, due from children to their par
ents, that If he be adjudged insane by
a competent board Of Commissioners
for the insane, that father Adams be
taken to the asylum where he can
have both proper treatment and care.

PORTO RICAN TAXES.
The BiiI for Civil Government
Passed by the senate

In the Senate yesterday Mr. Foraker
called up the bill to provide a civil gov
crnment for Porto Rico. He said that
there would be no debate and urged the
importance Of the enactment of The meas
ure into Law.
The bill fixes the salary Of the Com
missioner OF Education for Porto Rico at
81 GOO. and makes provisions as to fees
of jurors and Witnesses.
Mr. Foraker reported a change in one
Of the sections so that all customs and
taxes collected under the act OF AB~iI
I. 1900, shall be paid into the Treasury OF
Porto Rico TO be expended by the govern
ment for the benefit Of the island Instead
Of being paid into the Treasury OF the
United States.
Nh Morgan asked whether that provfs-
ion applied TO the Is per cent collected
under the tariff, and Mr.. Foraker replied
in the affirmative. Mr.. Morgan intima;ed
that that provision raised constitute ional
question. BY the specific requirement OF
the Constitution all tnrih collections
should be paid into the Treasury of the
tnited States. He simply wished 10 call
Mr.. Forakers attention to that point.
Mr. Bacon said that Mr. Morgan's sug-
gostion raised very serious ana i'm
portant question; that was. whether il
was competent for Congress to legislate
that any part OF the revenues of the Gov
ernment cen be devoted TO any purpose
without first going into the Treasury aLd
being then appropriated.
Mr.. Foraker, In pursuance Of his
promise not TO occupy time with his bill.
withdrew the amendment and The bill was
passed.
