rothing to promise and so he wisely
maintained silence.
| There are silences that are of su-
preme eloquence, and that of our
Governor in the presence of the catas-
trophic collapse of all the hopes of the
colony, is one Of them.
The enthusiasm manifested for the
hattering aspect Of Industrial develop
ment, is likewise deserving of pr aise
1t is the sole compens ati)n posses
sed by the Island Ard as this is in a
large measure due to the efforts of
Mr.. Winthrop, the enthusiasm felt is
altogether natural and il is not starn-
ge that the illstrious functionary sho-
uld have devoted the first paragraph.
IF his Message to agricultural condi-
tons.
The improvement which is so mott
ceab Bile in the affairs and order of the
colony is unquestionably due to the
government of Mr.. Winthrop; to him
more than to any one else belongs the
credit for the success which has been
obtained.
The message also discusses other
important questions which are deser-
wing of the attention of the public
and it contains recommendation hi
ghly oppcrtune.
The document il question would be
entirely irreproacha BILE we're it net
for the fact that it contains a para
graph which appears based on the
criterion of the coDgregantes
We refer to the recommendatio for
the granting of an appropriation for
making a demarcation and survey Of
the public lands
This, and his declarations regarding
the agency established in New York
for the propaganda Of our coffee, are
the only features of the message of Mr.
Winthrop which we deem open to
criticism.

EDITORIAL

The wisdom displayed by the Gov
ernor in avoiding any allusion to tn,
great and embarrassing problems o
the present governmental policy, il
the most admirable thing in his mes
sage.
| Mr. Winthrop, in with exquisite ex-
hibition of delicacy, has ahown hi:
appreciation and recognition of the
disappointment produced in the public
mind by the failure of all the hopes
which bad been aroused by the visit OF
the President to Porto Rico.
There was not word in the mess
age regarding politics. This, perhaps
would have seemed strange and caused
disgust under different conditions; but
in the light of existing circumstances
his course appears to us natural and
eminently proper.
The distant promises of a change of
regime have value only in the most
confding optimism; the tender of a
citizenship arranged for exporta tion,
and the fugitive hopes founded on the
intervention of the Committe of Insular
Affairs, are all things which have no
basis in reality, which are, plainly,
only fleeting shadows, empty dreams
and fugitive illusions, which have all
evaporated.
What was there left for the Governor
to say to US after our kno Wedge of the
side-tracking of the bill asking for
citizenship and the congratula tory
phrases in the presidential message
directed 70 Mr., Foraker
1t would have been the acme Of
cruelty for the Governor to have re-
peated the stereotyped phrase about
our lack Of preparation.
Any allusi6n to the present political
problems would have been heartless,
in the face of the deep sadness and
misery reigning in the colony.
M. Winthrop had nothing to offer
rs in the way of consolation and hope,

Portrait and Slipper,

A touching anecdote, associated with
q picture in the National gallery at
Edinburgh, is told by an English lady
in her book, "Potpourri From Surrey
Garden" She writes: Several pics
lures stand out with peculiar interest,
especially the life sized Gatnsborough
OF the young Mrs. Grahame. She sat
for the picture as bride, but before
1t came home she was dead and her
husband had gone to the wars. When
he came back he never had the cour-
age to open the case which contained
his young wife's portrait. On his
death, many long years after it was
painted, it was opened by his heirs,
and inside the case was the little
white slipper she had left with the
painter to help him to finish ibis pic
ture. The portrait was given to the
Edinburgh gallery, and the slipper
was kept by the family.

SpainS Popular BEVERAGE.

"Horchata de chufa" is the singular
name of the most popular drink In
Madrid. This is made from a nut
called "chufa,' yielding a milky liquid
when reduced to pulp. This is di-
luted with water and forms q most
cooling and refreshing drink How
ever, 1T IS an acquired taste. Very few
like it at the first trial. The horchata
may be made from different kinds Of
nuts. The almond Is used also. Strange
to relate, the horchata de chufa is al
ways sold where mating is kept for
sale, so that when you spy roll Of
the latter outside the store door it is
a sufficient indication that in that par
ticular place You may procure a glass
Of the horchata. In spite of inquiries,
[ was unable to discover the origin of
the singular combination Of articles on
sale.-London Truth.

THE DUNBAR MONUMENT

Paul Laurence Dunbar is not only
the greatest Negro poet the country
has produced, he is the greatest poet
the country has produced in fifty
years. We entertain no doubt of his
immediate acceptance and election
to niche in the Hall of Fame
when the convention is next held
However that means nothing. for
whether he is recorded there or not,
neither his country nor the world
OF letters will ever forget, or for
moment, overlook him as an in
splred singer. To the Negro people
now and hereafter he with Douglas
and Washington, will always be their
delightful reference, and the chief
glory Of their summing up.
There is now being put forth an
ehort TO erect to his memory a mon
ument. Not only the Negro people,
out the American people as a whole,
ought to count it a rich opportunity
10 be allowed to rear in marble and
bronze some manifestation Of the
popular regard for his virtues and
MS greatness Especially ought the
parents Of Negro children deem it an
especial honor to have their Off
spring contribute to the fund now
| Delng raised, for in the years to come
they must call on Dunbar both for
inspiration for the fight, and as a
reputation Of the certain calumny of
'he base detractors Of their race.

The Poet Shelley.

Shelley lived with ardor among
ideas. aspirations and passions in
which there was something at once
irresponsible and abstract. He follow
ed every impulse, without choice or re-
straint. with the abandonment Of a
leaf in the wind. "Oh, lift me as n
wave, leaf, a cloudv' was bis prayer
to the west wind and to every tnflu-
ence. Circumstances meant so little
to him that he was unconscious Of the
cruelty Of change to sentiment, and
thus Of the extent Of his cruelty to
women. He aimed at moral perfec-
ton. but was really Of a perfect aes-
thetic selfishness. He was full Of pity
and generosity and desired the liberia
ton and uplifting Of humanity, but
humanity was less real to him than
his own witch of Atlas. He only touch
ed human action and passion closely
In single one Of his works, and he
