principles of that organization. The Re
publican party is a new party, based on the
new conditions of the island and the fur
therance of living issues. The platform of
the two parties differ very little. Both
profess unqualified loyalty to the United
States; both desire territorial government
in the near future and eventual admission
to the sisterhood of States; both advocate
universal suffrage, free schools, American
money and free trade with the United
States, and both express deep admiration
for the American judicial system.

autonomy and the granting of great pow

DOOLEY FOR ALCALDE.
The First American Candidate I'm
Porto Rico.
New York Evening Sun.

Dooey for alcalde. This is the slogan
that is ringing through the streets and
highways of San Juan, Porto Rico, at the
present time. 1t will continue to ring with
all fervor and Latin-like enthusiasm until
Nov. 4, election day, when many citizens
of San Juan hope that they will be able 70
celebrate the election of Henry w. Dooley,
of Brooklyn and San Juan, as mayor
Mr. Dooley is the first American who ever
ran for an elective office in our West Indian
possessions. He is not candidate for
alcalde simply because he Is an American
not at all The American vote does not
amount to much in San Juan, there being
less than $50 voters. He was nominated by
the Spaniards and Porto Ricans composing
the American Federal party on the strength
of his record as a member of the City Coun-
Gil and his business capacity.
Mr.. Dooley was nominated by acclama
ton as the one person most eminently
fitted to redeem the city from the ring
which is now in control. BY the ring is
meant the Republican party of Porto Rico.
and charges of corruption and the like
which the party out of office is preferring
against the party in office would make an
American politician homesick. Read some
of the campaign literature now coming up
from San Juan. Here is a sort of feeler
for the American vote-comparatively mild
which was issued just prior TO Mr.. Doc
ley's nomination.

Why He Sneaked on.
PHILADELPHIA Record

IL
A Philadelphia business man, who makes
frequent trips abroad, has within the past
two or three years acquired the habit of
sailing away without saying anything about
e TO his friends. So mysterious have been
these departures to arouse no little
comment, and yesterday he explained why
he preserved so much secrecy about his
movements. IT'S just to escape being
used as combined purchasing agent pack
horse and smuggler,' he said 1T used to
be that every time 1 announced my inten-
ton OF making a trip abroad my friends
would come to me with small commits
sions to be performed on the other side
This one wanted something In Paris: that
one would request me to pick up a certain
article In London; another had a favor TO
ask of me when 1 should go to Berlin
and so on until / would have a bewilder-
ing list of small purchases to make. They
would rarely give me the money in ad-
vance, and often / never got il at all. I
would be expected to smuggle the things
through without paying duty, and alto
gether the thing became such a nuisance
that decided not to let any of my friends
know when l contemplated going across"
