The chamber OF commerce OF San
Juau. Porn kioo. has evidently be-.
come pretty thoroughly American
i1ed, be the ave u it may with tie
mass Of the people 81 tile island.
Grounds tor this opininn are sup.
Piled by u dispatch FROM that insular

through Gov. Allen asking for II
nan. for tree trade, for I'm ex ension

| United States
1t In added that ~the president OF
the chamber ~ commerce, looking
upon these requests rs unreasonable
has resigned" That wor by gentle.
maj evidently ha+ not become very
thoroughly Americanized. He is
much too sensitive.
What ia there unreasonable i'll these
requests, from tile American point oi
view? The San Junu commerclal

there unreasonable about that when
exposition promoters III our home

,ud-out appropriations Of millions,
md moi OILY ask, but receiver
The chamber asks for free trade.
meaning, no doubt, free trade with
lie United States, Of which Porto
Rico is Il territory. What is there
unreasonable about that? Ever! ter.
ri DRY acquired before 1893 enjoys
tree trade with the United States.
Besides. the Foraker ct provides for
this very thing rs soon as the III
sular legislature provides Tor a sufi
cient venue to be raised from
other sources than duties.
The chamber asks for IAN exten
sion Of the constitution ciemly
meaning III extension to the people
u Porto Rico ~ the rights Ell ,yed
by Americans undo the constitution.
Surely the re is nothing unreasonable
in that. We have never before de.
MED those rights to an, people over
