"When the treaty of peace was signed
between this nation and Spain, and
Torto ltico became our island, did that
make the Porto Iticans citizens of the
United States? If they are citizens,
then give them the same rights, oppor
tunities, and privileges according to
citizens in any other territory. If
they are not citizens, then we have
made a most stupid blunder, in not
forchij? Spain to remove her citizens as
well as her soldiers from the island.
Coxoijess may pass the finance bill,
adopt the gold standard and thus make
honest money. Hut why not, while
they are at the business, so fix it that
these honest dollars would have to be
honestly earned? We may be a mite
oldfotrvish. but it is our firm convic
tion that dishonest dollars do not
trouble the country one millionth part
as much as dishonest ways of getting
them. Ry all means give us the honest
dollar, but bear in mind these will need
honest pockets in which to store them
selves.
It seems that our Congressman
Weeks has been to Torto Rico once up
on a time, and while there did not
spend his whole time in soaking his
feet. On the other hand, he busied
himself in picking up pointed pebbles
and filling his pockets. These he
brought home for specimens and am
munition. A few days ago he fired a
few of them into the pending Home
Rule Hill, knocking the spots off the
same. He intimated that he stands
ready to do more shooting with balls
out of those same pockets. The fellows
on the other side of the fence will have
to bo deft dodgers or some of these
pebbles may strike them and there be
some skinned noses or bunged eyes.
At the time Uncle Sam picked up
little Porto Rico, we heard something
about the sugar producing power of
that island, and what an acquisition it
was to our great sugar-using country.
It seemed that it was all even so, yes,
too much so, for the sugar growers of
this country. The result is, that these
beet sugar men want a tarifi laid
against the Porto Rico product. Ninety-nine
sugar eaters of this country
want cheap sugar just as much as one
sugar grower wants dear sugar. Not
considering the rights of our newly
made citizens in Porto Rico, we ask,
which will be the greatest good to the
greatest number; cheap sugar for the
ninety-nine, or dear sugar for the one?
Poiito Rico is an island all surround
ed by water and therefore ought to
pay a duty on imports into this country
Manhattan Island is also entirely sur
rounded by water, and therefore, hold
on there! you numskull! Don't you
know the cases are not paralel? Man
hattan Island is not a territory, but a
part of a sovereign state. Well, then,
suppose we try our logic on Alaska?
That is a territory, and no mortal has
ever yet claimed its people fit for state
hood or self government. Hut who has
heard of Alaska paying duty on its fur
or fish when selling them at United
States ports? Why not put the Porto
Itic&ns on an equal footing as citizens
.of this country with Alaskan redskins?
BLOOD TELLS.
If any body ever doubted that blood
was thicker than water the Hoer-Hritish
war ought to clear his mind on that
point. Pry open any man's heart, take
a peep at his real sentiments and sym
pathies, you are almost certain to find
Dutch blood will favor the Hoers, and
English blood the Rritish. These may
be called race prejudices. He that as it
may, the fact remains that Dutchmen
well nigh universally are hoping that
Oom Paul will win, and that those of
English blood want the Red Coats to
be victorious.
THE GOOD ROAD QUES
TION. The agitation in favor of improved
roads may have been started by wheel
men; and if so, then this is only anoth
er proof of what a blessing bikes are.
Hut others are now interested and the
question is not likely to be shelved very
soon. It is a question of vital import
ance to all classes. The merchant as
well as the farmer wants improved
roads. The man who buys farm pro
duce as well as the man who sells, is
concerned in the question. We do not
know any better way to promote the
good cause than agitation except one.
That one is with object lessons. Let
pieces of road, or some line selected for
the purpose of example, be made as it
should, and the earnest advocates of
the cause will be multiplied a hundred
fold. Why could such an object lesson
not be given on some road leading into
Yale?

A Valuable Souvenir.
The special Christmas number of
"Book of Trains," issued by the Lake
Shore & Michigan Southern R'y, is
pronounced by a prominent liberian
to be not only a most beautiful and
valuable souvenir of the day, but, he
says, that "nowhere has he ever found
so many good things about Christmas."
The publication contains a choice col
lection of poetry and proso from favo
rite author?; also a charming short
story of Christmas eye, and it is beauti
fully and profusely illustrated with
half tones, etchings, crayon and pen
and ink effects, all from original draw
ings especially selected from the
various texts. A copy of the book can
bo obtained for four cents in postage
by applying to A. J. Smith, U. P. & T.
A., Cleveland, O.
Does It Pay to Buy Cheap?
A cheap remedy for coughs and
colds id all right, but you want some
thing that will relieve and cure the
more severe and dangerous results of
throat and lung troubles. What shall
you do? Go to a warmer and more
regular climate? Yes, if possible; if
not possible for you ; then in either case
take the only remedy that has been
introduced in all civilized countries
with success in severe throat and lung
troubles, "Hoschee's German Syrup."
It not only heals and stimulates the
issues to destroy the germ disease, but
allays inflammation, causes easy ex
pectoration, gives a good night's rest,
and cures tho patient. Try one bottle.
