they were not disappointed. When the

not a seat to he had In tho Grand

POLITICAL MATTERS.
f'ongressman Connelt suld yesterday:
"I see It has been published that I am
doing the- recorder's woik for him. This
lx flattering to my ability, but unfor
tunately It l Inaccuiate. I have not
asked the recorder to make or with
hold a single appointment, or to do or
not to do h single thing In connection
with his ofllce. Nor have X attended or
heaid of any confeience of p.utj lead
ers for the puipose of dlouslng
changes In tho personnel of the city
police and flro bureaus. Not lo my
knowledge was any such conference
held or Is one In contemplation. I have
conlldonce enough In tho present te
eorder to believe that he will do his
duty without outside dictation or pica
suie." "Is it tuie that your office is thronged
by seekers after city appointments?"
Mr, Connell was asked.
"X have had just one man come to tee
me on such a mission," Mr. Connell re
plied, "and I promptly tinned him ocr
to the recoider. My Idea, whlih, If I
were recorder, I would put into exe
cution, is that the employe of the city
who does his duty cflklcntly and faith
fully should be kept on the pay-toll,
and tho one who doesn't should be
bounced. 1 haven't heaid of any con
templated head-chopping, and don't be
lieve that any competent and faithful
emplne need have n moment's fear."
There Is a possibility that the meet
ing of the State League of Republican
clubs may be held In this city tho eaily
part of October. The selection of the
place Is left to the executive commit
tee, which is now casting about for a
suitable city In which to hold the con
vention. The advantages af Scrnnton
ate to be presented to the committee
and It may be that It will be decided
to hold the convention heic.
The president of the league now is J.
Hampton Mooie, ot Philadelphia, who
Is .serving his, second term. Mr. Moore
will not be a candidate to succeed him
self and thedo will be a veiy spirited
fight for the picsldency. The lcagua
lias not met In this city since the
fatuous battle of J.ick Xtoblnson for
president ten jears ago. ,

IIAILTID TROOPS AV1TH JOY.
"We hailed the American troops with
Joy; we built fairy castles in the air;
we seemed to feel a sense of liberty
from the very day of their arrival; our
hearts were tilled to overflowing, nnd
tho bells of our churches that day
seelned ns If they pealed forth the toc
sin of fieedom and Independence to
Porto Rico. AA'e were to become part
of the great land of AVashlngton and
Lincoln' AVas theie any wonder, theie
foie, that when the Stais and Snipes
floated for the Hrat time over the San
Juan palace that a mighty hurrah went
up from the heatts of my countrymen
all over the Island?
"Then came daik days. Piesldent
McKlnley's statement regarding fiee
trade was never realized. Our former
markets were closed to us. America
had too high a tariff, crops lay rotting,
finances were low, the hurricane devas
tated our coming crops; In fact, there
weie times when some of us lost all
heart and faith in the Anieilcan people,
and legarded the American policy an
seemingly lapaclnus spoliation, as a
breach of faith Itself
"A'et, we see the mistake nf thinking
ourselves entitled to all the preroga
tives of American citizenship without
being conscious or what such tltizeu
shlp meant. AA'e see the leasonlng for
a fractional tariff for revenue pui poses
we can follow the policy of the gov
ernment throughout nnd And it built
upon solid foundation, not effei vescent
emotionalism, but with a view to the
welfare of the Island,
A'lHAV FCTURR WITH PLKASCUl'..
"We Alow the futuie with pleas
ure. The ominous clouds of dls
tiust and dissatisfaction have nlown
away, commerce and ludustiy have
i delved a w outlet ful stimulus A
substantial form of administration
has been established, we aie In
closer connection with the United
States, prosperity smiles upon us. and
1 but voice the sentiment of the Porto
Rlcan people when 1 say that we look
forward to the day when that (Jem of
the Antilles, my beloved Rotiiiqueii,
will occupy a firm plaie in the gloil
ous Union, when on the starry baunei
a new and additional .star w 111 shed Its
lustie tho star of the state of Potto
Rico.
"The liberal establishment of o
many educational Institutions will he a
mighty power In the development of
the present geneiatlon. The building of
so many fine roads throughout the Isl
and will stimulate agrlcultuie, because
of the facilities for rapid tianspoitn
tlon, agrlcultuial development hereto
fore having been handicapped, because
of Inability to transpoit produce to the
coast. The building of the Nicaragua!!
canal would gicatly benefit the Island,
antl If the haihor of San Juan weie
possessed of good diy docks, ek It
would be but a question of time when
Porto Illto would be a base of supplies
for all vessels from Km ope.
