Porto Rico became possession
of the United States following
the war with Spain, October 18,
1898. It contains about three
thousand six hundred square
miles, one-tenth of the area of
Indiana. "A census taken in 1900
showed a population of 953, 243,
of whom 598, 426 were white and
1863, 817 were colored. The pop
ulation in 1910 is reported as 1, y
1902. The island is unusually
fertile, and it's principal indus
tries are agriculture and lumber
ing. There are more than five
hundred varieties of trees found
in the forests and the plains are
full of palm. orange and other
trees. The principal crops are
sugar, coffee, tobacco and corn,
but oranges, bananas, rice, pine
apples and many other fruits are
important products. The largest
article of export is sugar. TIT
next is tobacco. Other exports
in order of amount are coffee
fruits, molasses, cattle, timbe,
and hides. San Juan, the capi
tai of the island, is 1,411 mile

The following remarks by Con-
gressman Tavenner, in the Con-
gressional Record, are most in
teresting to those who have been
exercised regarding the high cost
of conducting this government
during the last 10 years:
Realizing the government
was being overcharged for tur-
bine rotary drums, Secretary of
the Navy Daniels, who, with one
exception, is the only secretary
of the navy that can find any
trace Of who has ever made a
real fight to escape the extortions
of the armor and ammunition
rings s-induced an independent
English firm to submit bid. The
Bethlehem and Midvale COM
panies bid $169, 568 and $16O, 272,
respectively, while the English
firm offered to furnish the drums
for $57, 436, a saving of $102, 1886
to the government over the low
est bid of the ring.
Recently the secretary award
ed a contract for building 100
torpedo TASKS. including heads.
He induced a new firm to slip in.
with a bid. and was able to pur-
chase for $58, 246 materials which
under normal conditions would
have cost $115,075. The bids of
the Bethlehem and Midvale COM
panies, under real competitive
bidding, showed a reduction of
496 as compared with bids for
similar forgings submitted by
these companies only four months
previous.
Personally, | believe that
these officers who, in the expend-
iture of the peoples money, have
been paying $115, 075 for supplies
which could have been obtained
for $58, 246, should, somewhere
or in some manner, be required
to make a public accounting for
their acts. The thing that riles
the blood concerning the manner
in which the millions have been
squandered by our army and navy
officers is that this money did not
come from the pockets of the
rich, but that it has been wrung
from the poorest of the poor. All
of these wasted millions have
been collected by a tax on the
things that the people eat, wear
and use, none of it having been
collected by direct taxation, but
every cent of it having come
through the custom houses and
internal-revenue Offices, which
means that the people have been
paying the cost of militarism in
the form of increased cost of
living.
by the most ingenious maneu-
vering among the war traffickers
Secretary Daniels has been able
to save some $1,000, 900 from
the clutches of the greedy patri-
OTIS for profits. But, alas, the
war trust has at last forced him
into a corner, and he is again
wholly at its mercy. To eluci-
date, | am informed that before
the outbreak of the European
war Secretary Daniels sought, by
inquiry, to ascertain from COM
panies in the ring the price of a
certain projectile. A price of
$3.50 was made him. The secre-
tary then invited the representa-
tives of Independent foreign COM
panies to visit him and submit
prices, at the same time taking |
extreme care that the domestic |
bidders should hear of his sup |
posed intentions. The result was |
the ring reduced its prices from
$3.50 to 1925, and the secretary |
made his purchases at that figure. |
Since the European war broke |

In spite of the increased use of
the automobile, the returns from
the assessors of the state show
that there are 5000 more horses
than last year. Cattle, sheep
and hogs haye greatly increased
in number.
The number of autos listed by
assessors March l was 81, 1,713,
but as there are already more
than $4,000 autos licensed under
the new motor code, it looks as
though several owners had their
cars up a tree when the assessor
passed. More than $4,000 auto
number plates are to be ordered
for next year, and it is estimated
that $4,000 will be raised from
licenses during the biennium, for
road purposes.

A few weeks ago the Examin-
er jokingly referred to the bread
question at the county Jail, there
having been a discussion as to
the amount of bread actually
used by the Jail during July. A
reader brings in this additional
information. which can be ac-
cepted for what it is worth:
'The sheriff's Office statement
of cost of bread for July was
$10.25 The amount paid by the
commissioners was $40. As. The
cost of bread for IL men working
on the Old Dominion mine is So
per month. The Statesman-In-
dex compliments the sheriff and
prosecuting attorney because the
Stevens county Jail has had few
or no prisoners. In such a mix
up of records believe the COM
missioners are getting away with
this bread, and charging it up to
the sheriff's Office"
The Examiner suggests that
the janitor look into the matter
and report it to the game warden.

Regarding tn e Examiners
news article on the Scott case,
published Sept. A, the Statesman
Index of Sept. 9 contained the
following:
The entire history of this transaction
and the very animus and rancor of the
whole article in the now discredited Ex-
aminer demonstrate conclusively to the
mind of any sober thinking man free
from prejudice and bias that the attack
was purely and simply one of the GUS
tomary ugly and rabid political attacks
of disgrunted paper, inspired by envy
and rancor engendered by jealousy of
honesty, efficiency and economy in of
flee. The tenor of the entire article
shows this and the strained and ludu-
crous reasoning indulged in and the
wierd and rambling conclusions drawn,
proves il"
Inasmuch as the Index seems
desirous of the case being ar
gued to sober thinking men, we
will not argue with it, but will
leave it to those of our readers
who may be sober, to judge just
what these remarks can possibly
have to do with the facts in the
case.
Supposing that we admit, for
the sake of argument, that the
editor is a liar and that the truth
is not in him and that he has
published these official disclos-
ures for the purpose of enraging
the people of Germany against
the United States and for the
purpose of aiding Villa to capture
Houston and for the further pur-
pose of discrediting this county
in the eyes of the livestock asso-
ciation-what of it? Are the
facts changed a particle. and is
any one deferred from going to
the county records and verifying
every statement made. by the
Examiner?
The editor Of the Colville Examiner
seems to be much exercised over the fact
that person by the name of Grinstead
is a stockholder in the Statesman
Index. If he had pursued his investi-
cations far enough to learn the facts he
could inform his readers that the j. X.
Grinstead. quoted as stockholder, is
a person of the male persuasion, is not
a resident of Stevens county or the
state of Washington and has holdings
so inconsequential that the policy and
management of the paper is a matter
of indifference to him.-F. Leo Grin
