All indications point to the fact
that Congress during the present
session will not pass law recogniz
ing Portoricans as citizeus of the
United States.
The anxiety Of President Roose-
welt. shown in an imprudent manner
in the letter sent by him to Senator
Foraker, clearly indicates that our
first magistrate is chiefly concerned
in having our Commissioner to Rio
Taneiro arrive in Brazil with the wor-.
thless credentials of citizenship
without rights, adopted for purposes
ofexportation. like some industrial
products and the bureaucracy sent
TO US from the United States.
And that this is the sole aspiration
of President Roosevelt, and that we
ourselves must not expect anything
different-in view of previous events
we'll known by all-is evidenced in
the text of The letter received by Mr..
Foraker and signed by President
Roosevelt and which our readers are
familiar with.
SAYS Mr.. Roosevelt. ineffect: t
would be a veritable misfortune were
law granting citizenship to the Por-
toricans not passed at-this session ct
Congress, before Mr. Larrinaga lea

For the theatrical effects of which
Mr.. Roosevelt is so fond, it is
undoubtedly veritable misfortune
the lack of that detail. the finishing
touch given at the last moment to
one of the members of the commits
sion sent to Rio Janeiro to represent
the United States at the third Pan
American Congress.

which the peoples of Spanish-Ame-
rica could not at first sight apprecia-
te. to have an apparent equality
among the Commissioners of the
great Republic, and then note the
inferioritv ma intained towards the
natives of the colony by those who
seem to think that they are the only
ones capable of teaching peoples and
educating them in the august
sch ool' 'of liberty.
1t would be a veritable misfortu-
ne, as Mr. Roosevelt says, but the
misfortune would be for him. for his
political blindness. for his chimerical
ambition that all the free peoples OF
the earth should defer to the impe-
rialistic Republic.
Yes; it would be mist ortune-a dis
grace-for the American Congress
to lend itself to serve in the jugglers

game in internationa laffairs:i it would
be misfortune. but not for the peo-
pies which it is sought to faseinate,
neither for the American people. nor
even for us, the forgotten Island,
and if not for him-the great drea-
mer-then for the success of his per-
sonal policy and the triumph of his
napoleenic ambition.
It would be veritable misfortu-
ne
1t would be a pity!
1t certainly would be a pity and a
disgrace for som ething SO sacred as
citizenship to be trifed with, and that

which represents the true sovereign
ty of the Republic, TO pass such a
measure as that desired by the chief
executive power.
Without doubt, Senator Spooner,
Speaker Cannon and the members of
the United States Senate and the
House of representatives have so
thoughtwhen they resolutely showed
their opposition to the farce of citi-
zcnship.

Portoricans. the least that can be
done is to preserve the prestige of
American citizenship, the credit
which it ought to have, and not be
willing to have it stoop also to deg
rade the august title of citizenship in
allowing it to serve for the colonial
ambitions of Mr. Roosevelt, as an
announcement of expansionism.
There may also enter fears for the
future into the calculations of the
prudent citizens OF the grand Rep
ublic, dread of complications in the
international aspect of affairs, which
would entail on the United States
tremendous sacrifices and unpleasant
obligations from which at present it
is free.
Those who are entrusted in nat
ion with the obligation of looking
after its domestic and foreign affairs,
are solemnly bound to protect it
from all conflicts which a wise pru-
dence can avoid, and which can best
be assured by a just appreciation Of
realty and a clear insight into the
| future.
When such characteristics are not
possessed by those in authority,
there is real danger and it is a
prrtfabif misfortune for country. no
matter how strong and powerful it
may be.

showed that she was not of the court

This was mademoiselle's constant
companion, Renee d'Outrelaise, only
daughter of a noble Of Potion, long OF
lineage, but poor in purse. The ambi-
ton of her mother for her daughters

Struck by the nobility Of thought
and character soon displayed by her
protege, she chose to keep her alto

court life and allow the budding flower
to develop uncontaminated within the
bonds Of her own presence. Her es-
pecial fear was that her royal cousin,
the king, becoming enamored of the
freshness Of her beauty, should seek
to pluck this blossom for hia own re-
freshment as he had so often done be-
