SPEECHES OF THE PRESIDENT
oufcr"pptnGs of Tendency to Lay
Aside the Ola Chinese " ali of
Duties Idea.

The character of the presidents
speeches has been a surprise even to
his party friends. With no elections
in sight, and with the next session Of
congress more than six months off. il
was supposed that Mr. McKinley's re-
sponses 10 the greetings en- route
would be made no of that pleasant
oratorical compound known as
"tafiy." Instead of this. the presi-
dent has not only reafiirmed his adj
herence TO expansion" which he has
good reason 10 know is popular at
the south. but has boldly limited at
progressive economic and commercial
policy.
Il was announced before the presi-
dents departure from Washington
that during his trip he would be reg
ularly informed Of the progress of
the plans for local revenues in Porto
Rico. and the moment the expenses
of the island are met by its local
revenues the proclamation of free
trade between Porto Rico and the
United States Will issue. wherever the
president may be. though of course il
viii be dated from Washington" This
action will offend the tobacco and
sugar growers OF this country. who
have protested that free trade with
our new possessions win spell ruin to
them. But the president forestalled
this complaint in his Memphis speech
in saying that "maxins are not as
profitable as markets. and by adj
moniShing his hearers that we must
solve the problems that confront us
untrammeled by the past"
Some of the old republican maxims
about the beauties of one-sided
trade behind Chinese wall of duties,
once expressed in the question of
? spread-eagle western senator:
What is abroad to uS?" have been
smashed by the logic of trade events
o: the last four years. We have an
enormous foreign trade and are
reaching for more.
