REASONS FOR RESlGNING
Mr.. Flint Explains Retirement fror
Monetary Commission.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Aug. 14-For
mer United States Senator Frank
Flint, explaining his resignation from
the monetary commission, SAL vest
erday:
This commission might, under pro
per conditions. accomplish a great
deal of good but a business man
5000 miles from the seat of govern
ment cannot give this vital matter
the attention it should have,
ut is my conviction that the board
shouldbe made up entirely of mem.
bels Of congress. As a matter of fact
] think it unlikely that the commits
sion made up mainly of former mem.
bers Of congress, would be able to
embody in bill that would meet the
approval of the present congress the
monetary reforms that are needed.
For all these reasons and others

The Oriain Of Ounce,

A Ounce is named after Duns Scotus
the chief and leader Of the SCHOONER
who were in opposition to what was
called 1.-THE new learning" in the six.
teenth century. 1t is easy to see how
readily convertible the term would be.
Any opponent of the new learning
would be apt to be referred to as a
Dunsman, or. more briefly, as a Duns,
to indicate that he held the views of
which Duns Scotus was the most emf
nent representative. But - the time
went on and the new learning triumph
ed to call any one a Dunsman or a
Ounce would be equivalent to describ-
ing him not merely as opposed to a
certain set of doctrines, but as inca
pable Of learning and enlightenment.
1t is certainly hard upon Duns Scotus.
as Archbishop Trench has remarked.
that he, 1.-The subtle doctor" by pre-
eminence. the "wittiest of the school
divines" as Hooker terms him, should
have his name handed down to future
ages as synonym for invincible stu
pidity.

lisbon R0YALISTS
READY TO STRIKE
THAT HUGE sum HAS BEEN
WITHDRAWN FROM PoRTU-
GAL SINCE FOUNDING or
THE REPUBLIC.

LISBON, Aug. 17.-These ar
anxious weeks in Portugal. The mel
forming the provisional government
are doing their constructive work
upon the republic in singular con
fusion OF distrust, extreme fdealism
the hostility of old interests, the dis
appointed hopes of new elements and
the sober, determined disfnterested'
ness of the few. ~~-s ~z
Tie monarchtsts have secret or
ganization within the country and
are openly conspiring without. The
nobility and manly Of the wealthy men
OF Portugal support the monarchial
principle.
Something like 100000 900 has
been withdrawn from the country in
capital or through the sale of prop
critics since October OF last year.
The monarchists have military or.
ganization in Spain with abundant
funds, stores of ammunition, artillery
and various equipment. 1t seems as
though an attempted invasion and
rising could not be indefinitely de-
layed. The monarchists have invested
so largely and have raised such hopes
that they mnst make an attempt even
under great risks. They contend that
they have the support of the Jesuits.
The success of the government in
Portugal has made the Spanish re-
publicans more active. Spain has a
1ouble duty, that of hospitality to-
ward Portuguese refugees and neu-
rality as between Portuguese m0nar-
:hists and republicans. The Spanish
government seems to be striving to
uIfilI both duties, yet the Portuguese |
eel that anarchy or prolonged civil !;

CAR TOO
Big FOR new ROAD

AsHEVILLE, N. c., Aug. 17.-After
spending thousands of dollars in blast
ing private road, twenty-five miles
long, through rock cliffs and filling
up deep mountain gorges so that his
automobile could be run from the pub
lie highway to Biltmore house, on the
summit of Mount Pisgah, Mr.. George
w. Vanderbilt today finds he must
spend $4,000 more widening the
turns, the first trial of his 60-horse-
power Stevens-Duryea motor car show
ing the length of the car too great
to make turns safely around the edges
Of preciipices hundreds of feet deep.
The road rises 1900 feet in the six
miles to the 5,500.foot high terminus.
No grade exceeds seven per cent. The
road is to be carried twenty miles
further, circling back to Biltmore
House to make good afternoons

Higher PRICES FOR
PUERTO RICAN CROP

NEW YORK. Aug IT, Tobacco
growers and ci~ar manufacturers in the
wholesale district yesterday corroborat
cd the statement in the Herald on Sun
day that the poor crops OF tobacco in
Cuba and the Southern states OF this
country aug,rcd an increase in tho
prices OF popular brands OF cigars and
smoking tobacco.
while We expect 4 slight advance in
the prices OF cigars" said ]. D. Man
ton. manager OF the Logan Tobacco
company, of Puerto Rico, lowing to
climatic conditions in Puerto Rico, ncv-
crthclcss il the price of labor continues
to advance we look forward to a ncr-
nancnt advance in the prices of cigars.
In Puerto Rico last year. when the
seed beds were planted. there was a
drought which lasted many weeks, ca,s
ing a loss OF time and money to the
planters. During the transplanting
IRON the seed beds to the fields there
was another drought and a series of
heavy rains. About the time of the
harvesting OF the crops there was too
much rain. which made the crops about
% per cent short.
AS a result the tobacco was of an
interior grade. In addition, labor con-
d!t'ons on the plantations couscd a
higher price to be paid for labor. and
according to all indications labor will
demand still higher price this wear.
me cigar manufacturers are affected
ny beng compelled to pay all the wav
from 81 to So a thousand more for
cigars -, H., ~ "
.Whilc the Puerto Rican crop for
1oli is really half short it has prac.
!,sa''y doubled IN value The price of
the tobacco, however, has advanced
only about 30 to 40 per cent. Speak
ing as a grower of Puerto Iican to-
bacco, since l9W2! We have never had as
bad year as this one

not tolerate the interference Of Euro
pean nations" President Taft, himself,
goes so far ss to declare that Il Is not
only our right, but our duty to fortify
the canal and to the universal peace
advocates he offers the suggestion, that
desirable as is the elimination Of their
plans and purposes, II Is yet long
way off Until IL comes within closer
vision, Il is not, in his opinion, safe for
this nation to proceed on the theory
that 1t has arrived.
In this, as in all other policies Of
government, we must judge the future
somewhat by the past. That being
true. it is not so easy to justify the
validity and effectiveness Of the nom
fertilization policy when no great
power with vital territorial inter-
est at stake has yet undertaken to
safeguard It by naturalization.
