The coffee planters must have p ~
lection for their coffee. poot@otion
five cents a pound, which win hft u Y
industry from its present coaalllon
stagnation, guaranteeing price
which our grain is entitled even thorgl
it's merits are not appreciated owing
to the degenerate taste OF coffee drln-
kers in the United States.
The tariff ought to be 1--WE cents
pound. anything less than that is
palliative not sufficient for the gravity
of our crisis which has now reached
point amounting to disaster.
The esta blishment of a tariff such
as may protect the entry OF our coffee
into the american market, guaran-
teeing to it remunerative price. is
indisL ensable.
But the criterion Of justice in the
mother country has been overthrown.
There, nothing is said about protec.-
.ion as a means of assisting to relieve
h crisis here; they talk sbont prot
ecJion, but it is on account OF the crls-
is which the government there is beg
inning to suffer since it launched out
as great power and undertook to
perform missions of redemption.
The economists there do not stop to
think about the disastrous situation of
a colony whose principal product is
coffee. and whose markets for this
product have been closed, deprivins
ne half of the island S popu alton Of
the only means it possessed for max
ing a living. Nor does the govern
ment consider that as all anne
rican products enter here with the
advantages Of protection, and more
over that we pay for them the domes-
tic price, our products ought to enter
there protected by equal duties.
Nevertheless, nothing of this sort is
ia Ken inc account nor is any atten-
ton paid II it, aud when the reform
of the tariff schedule is spoken OF, and
the imrositiorr OF q tariff on foreign
coffee considered, our miseries are
lost sight of, nor are Cur misfortunes
thought Of; neither the emigration Of
our couutryHen, or the strugg gg!es9caused
by hunger; on the contr~ry they are
ignored and the government ocvotes
ITS energies to devising means for Co
fvering a defcit which the national
government has to face or account Of
having undertaken the role Of knight
erraut.
And as we do not aspire 70 . chan
ce salvation--having resources ei our
own-ln case we are not given a liked
and sufficient guarantee In the anne
rican tariff schedule. we ought to de-
mand tariff autonomy in order that we
may seek markets on cur own account.

fallacious free trade under which we

In order to detract from the impor
|tance Of the Assembly e Munich
palities. it has been said th@t po'iiica
questions would be excluded, and that
lin that great reunion the palpitatin &
problems, which have so seriously ocu-
pied public opinion, should not be dis
cusscd.
A paper, little read, has at other II
mes attributed to the Mayor OF San
Tuan declarations in accordance with
the above views.
The Importance of the reunion of
the Municipalities, were we to give
credit to such assertions, would neces-
sarily result in becoming much less
But on account of the source from
whence these statements emanate, We
do not take them seriously, nor do we
deem it worth while to take the trou-
bic to discuss them.
There exists no program defining
the subjects to be brought to the at
tention of the Board; and the only no
tice made public of an official charac
ter is the invitation of Mayor Todd
extended to his colleagues in the is
land. In that letter, is reflected the
general state of protest. and we are
therefore not in position to attribute
other intentions to the assembly Of
Ayuntamientos than those which were
designated at the beginning.
1t is necessary that the reunion on
the twenty fifth of July, the seventh
anniversary of american occupation,
should have for its object the accomp
fishing of great and important results
in order that afterwards those who
have organized and taken part in the
Assembly may not be subjected to the
most hearty ridicule.
The significance of that Board will
have to be political, though its
acts above all else must be of an eco
nomic character, and i'll this sense
SHOULD be considered indispensable
and undelayable.
The Assembly Of Municipalities, if
it does net wish to defraud the island
of its hopes, should ask for self gov
eminent; it tAould ask for protection
for coffee. or for economic indepen
dence, to the end that Porto Rico may
recover It's former mark It's.
Municipal independence and auto<
nomy is also indispensable, likewise
that those corporations be relieved
from the yoke of the central govern
ment: further, thar the Secretary Of
Porto Rico should not have the power
of vetoing the acts of the municipal
tiles, thus causing the country to be
an unwilling servant; without effect
i've rights. depending absolutely on
the whims and power of the lHsular
government.
Protection for coffee should be ask
ed for; but protection that in the true
sense of the word Protects; protection
which is not founded on the crisis Of
the national government, but that
which has for its basis the just object
Of extracating US from crisis which
we ourselves have not precipitated,
but that was precipitated upon us as
the result of a brutal and unjust ia
riff which closed the former markets to
our grain.
Among the interests to be represen-
ted at the Assembly to morrow. the
greater part, as is always: the case
here, will be those of coffee.

FARMERS DEMAND
FREEDOM OF WORK

Atlantic City, N. j., Nov. 24.-Be-
fore adiourning sine die last evening
the National Grange adopted a reso-
luton declaring ''that we, as Ameri-
can citizens, believe it is every mans
privilege to work as many hours as
he wills for pay; that energy, thrift
and activity are entitled to encour-
agement and should command right
full compensation for the services
rendered" That is taken as direct
ly aimed at the labor unions which
fixed on eight hours for a working
day, and may mean q contest between
the farmers and organized labor.
Another resolution dopted@provides
that when a granger is found Ito be

ton endorsed President Roosevelt and

MIDDLE KILLED IN FIGHT.
Medical Testimony Strong Against
MeriWether.


Annapolis, Md, Nov. 24.-The prose,
cution used its heavy artillery in the
line of medical testimony during yes
terday's session of the court martial
which is trying Midshipman Meri
wether. The surgeons explained the
nature of their examination on
Branch's skull. 1t was explained that
the skull was opened on the right side,
although paralysis appeared on the left
side of the body, because the nerves
controlling one side of the body cross
from the opposite side of the brain,
while the nerves controlling the facial
muscles do not. 1t was further
brought out that the injury, though on
the right side, was occasioned by sue
cessive fist blows on the left side of
the head. The injury was of the; ma.
ture medically known as "countre
coup" blows to the skull, on one side
of the head having the effect of fore
ing the brain against the walls. of.the
skull ON the other side and causing
compression in that way. All the
medical officers gave it as their posi-
tive conviction that Branch died from
the effect of the blows he had received
in his fight with Meriwether.
