Newe]lDwi?ht Hin . is at Plymouth church, Brooklyn. Dr. Hi 11 is said in part: "The evils of drink are familiar to you. There are oth er evils. Hut the greatest peril is the insane spirit of gambling which seems to have taken hold of the people, irre spective of social standing or reli gious belief. The insane desire to get rich quickly is at the bottom of if all. 'I here is no difference between the newsboy who flips coins and the man in Wall street who buys stocks on mar gins on a chance that they will rise or fall. Both wish to get something for nothing; both are gamblers. The Incessant gambling on all sports lias ■wrought intellectual demoralization to the country. Horse racing is one of the noblest of sports, but it has been de graded and bestialized by gambling. Every Saturday afternoon you see at the race tracks thousands of working girls and men who have families to supj.ort crazy with the intoxication of gambling. As each race is run they stand tip, a yelling, cursing, purple- Jaced, brutalized gang." In these "words Dr. Hillis presents a scene that is growing to be too common for the good of the whole country. The gam bling which is inseparable from horse racing at big city race tracks is, ac cording to the metropolitan press, a growing menace to the honor, sobri ety and virtue of the youth of the cities. The latest novelty in the counter feiting line is reported from Pliila- Countcrfeiti..|g in delphia, where a lawyer was the I'riMon. _ other day arrested charged with aiding two of his cli ents, prisoners in Moyamensing pris on, in an enterprise for the printing of bogus S2O bills. The charge is that the men made the plates at odd mo ments during their confinement awaiting trial, and then printed tlio notes with a cleverly devised appara tus, so small that it could he hidden in a cigar box. For paper which •would defy scrutiny they used gen uine dollar bills, washed in a man ner to obliterate the first inking. The daring of this scheme distinguishes it from the ordinary work of the bad money makers, who usually seek se cluded places for their engraving and printing. If the facts are as now rep resented, the affair reflects seriously upon the prison authorities, who are supposed to exercise the closest pos sible surveillance over the move ments of all prisoners, and to search their cells periodically for contra band articles. The I'nited States gov ernment would seem to have good reason to complain of the Pennsyl vania prison methods. President McKinley's declination to cross the Mexican border while at El Paso is said to have reminded Kepre sentative Hitt of an incident of one of Gen. Grant's tours. During his first term as president Gen.Grant paid a visit to Niagara Falls. He was eager to cross over to the Canadian side, and it was with some difficulty that his friends restrained him, urging that there was an unwritten law that the president of the United States should not leave the country during his term of office. "Well," said Gen. Grant, pulling at his cigar, "that seems a very silly law to nie. I would like to cross over so that Colfax may realize his ambition to be president, if it is for only five minutes." According to a Washington report the telephone slot machines are doing an enormous work in the matter of taking worn-out dimes out of circula tion. There is nothing to prevent worn-out, mutilated and almost smooth dimes from being put into the slots, and as a result many persons keep the worn-out dimes for that par ticular purpose. Many druggists and others who keep public telephones make no objection to taking mutilated dimes any more for the reason that they keep a supply on hand to do a telephone business with. When ihey see that a telephone user is going to put a new dime in the slot they sim ply take it in and hand A worn-out dime in exchange. GEN. GRANT'S REPORT. Saya \V»r in I. nr. on Wn* Only Kept A lite l») Hope of Urynn'K Election. Among those who arrived in the United States transport Sheridan at San Francisco was llrig. (ien. Fred erick Dent Grant, vho is back from Manila after two years of service. Gen. Grant, sifter landing, said: "Since* the first campaign progress to ward order and peace lias been steady and rapid. The greatest revival of activity was aftet Bryan's speech c»f acceptance of the democratic nomination. You could trace the <yrect result of every anti-expansion speech in congress after that. In fact, the connection was close between pro-Filipino outbreaks in the I'nited States and native revolt In the islands. The better class in the islands, who held property, were puz zled by these declarations by prominent Americans that the Philippine government should be given over to the hands of the insurgents. They saw plainly that they would lose both lives and property as soon as the backs of the Americans were turned. From Bryan's first speech to the close wf the campaign, all the war in the Philippines was useless war because we could make no headway against the sinis ter intiuence of anti-imperialism. The troops were kept as quiet as possible, as every one saw th« futility of active effort until after the election was decided. "No one who was not an eyewitness of affairs In the Philippines can appreciate the disastrous results of this democratic anti-expansion campaign oil the Innocent Filipinos, in Pa m pan go province over i(«i,000 people were killed for refusing to swear allegiance to the Insurrection. Three hundred people were burned alive In one small district. Not far from my camp eight men were killed In one day by a Filipino desperado named Lorenzo Calmayer, who boasted that this fate would fall upon all loyalists when Americans evacuated the island". All these outrages could be traced directly to the receipts of those seditious speeches and tracts from the United States. "The Filipinos are timid, and it was natural that they should hesitate to es pouse a cause which had such active and violent opponents in the I'nited States. Hence it was useless carrying on warfare under such conditions. All active opera tions among my force were stopped after Bryan's nomination, and It was only a few days before election that we again began to prepare for war. When the announce ment of President McKinley's tle-ction came I struck, and struck hard. The end of the insurrection was in sight when the na tives were convinced we were in the Phil ippines to stay. "So you may say the insurrection is dead. All that remains Is to clean out a few thou sand Ladrones and gather up guns. But the work of giving natives good govern ment is a difficult task, which will require great judgment and executive ability. These Islanders are descendants of pirates and they stiil pay tribute to brigands. A certain class will continue to rob ar.d pil lage until they have felt the law's heavy hand. But so far as political result Is con cerned, the insurrection is ended. Before Agulnaido's capture it was dead. A com pany of my Macabebe scouts were the men who actually made the capture of the rebel leader. "The work of pacifying the islands Is go ing on at a rapid rate since Presieler.t Mc- Kinley's election. My district included the provinces of Bulacan, Pampango and Bo taan, all Tagalo provinces, with GGO.OOO population. They were regarded as the most lawless in the islands, and my work was mainly wiping out small insurgent strongholds in the mountains. Now not a single robber band is left in the district. Local government under a civilian gov ernor Is in operation and we are teaching the people and building roads." FREE TRADE NOT WANTED. I'robnltle Auttation of the Turin* (liie»tlon l»y AdvoentcN of Reform. Some of the newspapers of free trade leaning- are advocating the re peal or modification of the Dinjrley tar iff law as a mark of good will toward the foreign nations in whose markets our surplus products are now being sold. There is no doubt that the tariff question will be agitated considerably between now and the opening of the next session of congress in Decem ber, and attempts will be made to break down the protective wall. Significance is being attached to the remarks of M. Jules Siegfried, the for mer minister of commerce and indus try of France, who is visiting the United States, to the effect that if the invasion of European markets by American trusts continues, there is likely to be a combination of the com mercial countries of Europe for the purpose of putting a practically pro hibitory tariff upon American prod ucts. This is taken io mean that free trade must supplant protection in our fiscal policy il' we are to heilel our own in the markets of the world. Keciprocity, however, is the means by which European nations are to be prevented from taking action hostile to American commercial interests. By means of reciprocity treaties, which are authorized by the Dingley law, am icable? trade relations between this country and individual countries in Eu rope can be brought about. lJecipro city provides for freer trade, but not fe>r free trade. To those countries in which concessions in favor of Amer ican goods are made this government gives concessions in return. In stead of tearing down the protective wall, reciprocity provides for breaches in it here anel there, through which foreign products which do not com pete disastrously with American prod ucts may be admitted. Under reciprocity treaties all the new trade conditions may be met. The protective policy will not be aban doned.—Cleveland Leader. tySecretary of State Sam Cook says Mr. Bryan has been "a candidate twice on practically the same plat form anel he has been defeated twice,' and it is in order for demo cratic leaders "to think hard between now and 1904." Sam must remember that if the democratic party hatches up a fresh set of principles it will have to drop the old ones and ac knowledge that the whole Bryan business was a mistake, —St. Louis Glcbe-Democrat. IC"I owe something to the people of the I'nited States," gays Mr. Bry an, "and I propose to deliver the goods." That has the right ring. What Mr Bryan owes the people is a long rest. They are ready to write a receipt whenever the goods are de livered.—Kansas City Journal. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1901. FREE TRADE A DEAD ONE. rCnitlaixl Iln» Tardily Discovered (he Superiority of Protection, Even in the house of its friends the once much-vaunted policy of free trade, the idol of the C'obdenites, com mands but scant respect. It yets more kicks and abuse than praise in the England of to-day, not because all or even a majority of nglish free trad ers have been converted to protection, but because they have lost faith in the system to such an extent that they no longer defend it, even if they cannot bring themselves to openly condemn it. Now that it is "a condition," not a "theory," that, confronts England, in the form of foreign trade competition, it is being discovered that free trade is not the great national blessing that was once preter.ded. The Englishmen who have for years believed that the building up of their country's great commerce was made possible by the repeal of the so-called corn laws and the adoption of a free trade system are rapidly revising their opinions, and on every side doubts are being ex pressed as to the advisability of re taining an economic policy which handicaps instead of helping. The -National Review, never an advo cate of free trade, but a conservative representative of British public opin ion, points out the proof that has come to hand of late of the fallacy of the contention that Great Britain's na tional prosperity during the last half of the nineteenth century was due to free trade. The National lleview says: "So long as wo had no serious industrial competitors for the markets of the world, our commercial and fiscal system worked well enough. It was not seriously tested. We are apt to overlook the fact that the lines of our industrial greatness were laid during- an age of monopoly—we being the monopolists—and that our methods are only now beginning to be tried by competi tion. W'e had a very long start from which ,we shall derive some benefit, but already we suffer from this threefold disadvantage —(1) Our home market is very seriously eaten into by foreign competitors; (2) the markets of our competitors are almost sealed against us; (3) in the neutral mar kets of the world free trade England is be ing rapidly overhauled by protectionist America and protectionist Germany. The age of foreign competition has succeeded the age of British monopoly, and the rival systems are now, for the first time, seri ously pitted against one another. The omens are unfavorable for free trade." It is not only interesting but impor tant for us to learn that British opin ion concerning the relative merits of free trade and protection is gradually unedrgoing a change. If it were not that the British move somewhat slow ly, we would be in danger of an imme diate revision of the British system and would have to prepare to meet a commercial enemy fighting us with our own weapons. But it is not to be expected that in Great Britain protec tion will soon be substituted for free trade, although it would seem as though it must come to that in time. Americans, however, will be well con tent tf> see things remain as they are now. We do not want to be kept out of the British markets where we have been building up so profitable a busi ness, and as long as the British cannot bring themselves to break with the free trade system that business can continue. But the tardy discovery made by Englishmen of the superiority of the protective over the free trade system is undoubtedly a vindication of Amer ican judgment. The people of the United States have repeatedly shown their faith in the protective system, and only upon one or two occasions have they displayed any wavering in that belief. The free traders have al most invariably been in the minority, and to-day that minority has shrunk almost to the vanishing point. The nation from its own experience knows that protection is the policy that builds up trade, both domestic and foreign. It would have known this even with out any English testimony on the sub ject. but it is nevertheless gratifying to have that testimony presented.— Troy Times. PRESS OPINIONS. CDavid I!.

AFTER MANY DAYS Supreme Court Renders a Do cision in the Insular Cases. Tbo Contention* of the Govcrnmrnl ■ M KimtalneU toy a .Tlujorlty of the iQt-mbrr* of the Court and tlie Ktatubof Our ,\ew I*o»»e»- ■lou» IK Uctloed. Washington, May 28.—1n the United States supreme court on Monday opinions were handed down in all but two of the eases before that court involving' the relation of the United •States to its insular possessions. The two cases in which no conclusion was announced were those known as the fourteen diamond ring-s case and the second of the Dooley cases. The undecided Dooley rase deals with a phase of the Porto Rican question and the diamond ring case involves the right to the free importation of mer chandise from the Philippines to the United States. Of the several cases decided yester day the two which attracted the greatest share of attention from the court were what, is known as the J)e Lima case and that known as the Downes case, and of these two the opinion in the Downes case is consid ered the most far-reaching, as it af fects our future relations,whereas the De Lima case dealt with a transition al phase of our insular relations. The De Lima case was the first to receive the attention of the court, and as it appeared to be quite sweep ingly opposd to the government's con tentions, many persons precipitately arrived at the conclusion that the government had been worsted all along the line. This view suffered a decided change when the conclusion was announced in the Downes case. The court was very evenly divided on both cases, but political lines were not at all control lug. The De Lima case involved the pow er of the government to collect a duty on goods imported into the Uni ted States from Porto liico after the ratification of the treaty of Paris and before the passage of the Porto liican act. The court said the gov ernment's contention in this case was substantially a claim that Porto liico is foreign territory. The entire case turned upon that, contention. The court held that the position was not ■well taken; that Porto Rico was not at the time foreign territory,and that therefore the duty which had been collected must be returned. The decision in the Downes case fol lowed the history of the dealings of the United States with Porto Rico a 6tep farther. That case dealt with the legality of the exaction of duties on goods imported from Porto Rico into New York after the passage of the Foraker act providing for a duty upon goods shipped from the United States into Porto Rico, and also on those shipped from Porto liico to the United States. In this ease the court held that such exaction was legal and constitutional. The point of the two opinions con sidered collectively is that Porto Rico was never, after the acquisition of that island, foreig*n territory; that until congress acted upon the <iyes tion 110 duty could be collected, but that as soon as congress outlined a method for controlling the island's revenues that action became binding; in other words, that congress has power under the constitution to pre scribe the manner of collecting the revenues of the country's insular pos sessions and has the right to lay a duty on goods imported into our in sular possessions from the United states, or exported from them into the United States. It holds in brief that for taxation purposes they are not a part of he United States to the extent that goods shipped between their ports and the United States are entitled to the same treatment as though they were shipped between New York and New Orleans. Justice lirown delivered the court's opinion in both cases and there were vigorous dissenting opinions in both. In the Downes case, four of the mem bers of the court united in an opin ion criticising in strong language the opinion of the majority in that case. In this opposing opinion the chief jus tice and Justices Harlan, Hrewer and Peckhain united, and the chief justice and Justice Harlan presented their views in written fc.rm. Justices Gray, Shiras, White and McKenna also, while agreeing with the conclusion announced by Justice Brown, an nounced that they had reached tht conclusion by different lines of argu ment, and Justices firay. White and McKenna announced opinions outlin ing their respective positions. Jus tices Shiras, White and McKenna also dissented in the De Lima case, unit ing in an opinion. Justice Gray also presented an independent and dis senting opinion in that case. The other eases decided by the court were those of Goetze vs. the United States, involving duties on im portations from Porto Rico, and Grossman vs. the United States, duties on Hawaiian imports being involved. In these two cases the De Lima deci sion was followed and assessment of duties prior to enactment of legisla tion for the islands held illegal. The assessment of duties was part ly sustained and partly upheld in the cases of Dooley Armstrong vs. the United States. The duties were held legal when made during the military occupation of Porto Rico and prior to ratification of the peace treaty, but illegal when levied after the peace treaty, but prior to passage of the Foroker act.
