Porto Rico Satisfied.

Senator Foraker, who has received
long letter from Governor Allen, of
Porto Rico, is highly pleased over the
result Of the first legislative session in
that island under American rule. 1t
is a complete vindlcatlon of the meas
ure for the government Of the island
that Mr.. Foraker put through the
Senate, and 1t is also a vindication OF
the much abused tariff law for Porto
Rico.
Under that tariff law the Porto
Rico Legislative Assembly had the
power to provide for free-trade be
tween Porto Rico and the United
States whenever it devised a measure
to raise the necessary revenue in some

other way than by tariff duties. The
matter was entirely In the hands OF
the people of Porto Rico.
The wholesale falsehoods told in
certain American newspapers about
the terrible hardshlps Of the tariff on
the people of the islands and their
great Indignation against 1t are now
shown in their true light by the act
ion of the Porto Rico Legislature.
While it had the power it never for
one mement considered proposition
to repeal the tariff law.
Some speeches were made on the
subject and they were all to the effect
that low tariff imposed purely for rev.
enue purposes for the benefit of Porto
Rico was the best way to raise rev.
enue at the present time, and Legis-
lature decided to continue 1t, thus
indicating the action of Congress.
All the evidence coming from Porto
Rico shows that it is bec0m ny rapidly
prosperous and is now in a much bet
ter condition than 1t has been for
many years, despite the injurious eff
fects OF the hurricane Governor Allen
says that there never was time when
so many people were employed on the
islands at good wages as at the present
time, and that the general condition
of the masses was never better nor
were they ever so contented as at the
present time.

lighted over the situation in Porto

An Erroneous Statement

We see the papers Of the state are
publishing the report that President
Taylor Of the normal school has re-
signed his position and accepted the
presidency Of an Illinois college. The
facts are he has not resigned and has
not accepted another position. He
has been rendered position as presi-
dent of new institution, yet to be
built at Decatur, Ill.,, and is offered a
very f1attering salary to take charge
of it,
Whether he will accept the new
place is as yet undetermined. We
hope, for the good of the normal school
and Of the state Of Kansas, he will
persuade himself to stay with us. 1t
seems like his work is not yet accom-
plished in the state and like it would
be almost calamity to have him leave.
He is one of the very few men who
seem exactly to fill the position they
occupy.

pire is upon us. The iron heel has
already begun to grind upon the
neck of the serf and it is awful, AL

place to the groans of the serf driv-

Mr.. Bryan told US that all this
would come to pass, and those who
remember the promises made in the
past will look for an equal fulfill
ment of the predictions of an en-
pire. Of course we know the en-
pire is here, for Mr.. Bryan told us
it would come with the second inau-
guration of Mr.. Mckinley, but we
want to be certain. Mr.. Bryan
knows what an empire is, he has
made a study of it and will he please
tell an anxious public if it has in
deed arrived according to the prom
Uses he made. A majority of the
people of this country voted for
this empire he promised and they
want to know that 1t has been de-
livered.

It's soothing, to say the least, to
see with what stoicism the democrats
have resigned themselves to the fate
that is so soon to overthrow this
nation. Although it is less than a
week until the republic is to be mer'

taken from US by military despot,
yet every man of the democrats is
going right ahead with his business
as though there wasn't such a thing
as an empire. The bravery of these
democrats is equalled in magnitude
only by their reputation as prophets.
