Kxpiiii.slaii In 11 Strong Speech.
Now York, Jan. 23. A mass meetlnr-
of citizens was held In the Academy
of Mttalo last nlghrfor the purpose of
protesting against the policy of "Im
perialism nnd entangling alliances with
Kuropean powers." The meeting was
attended by a great crowd. Long be
fore the doors were opened 3,000 people
were clamoring for admission, and In
a short while the police ordered the
loors unlocked because of the crush.
Ten minutes later there was not a va
cant seat In the house.
A list of vice presidents was rend,
Including these names: Wheeler II.
Feckliam, Abram S. Hewitt, Roger A.
Pryor, Samuel Gompers and John M.
Parsons.
Communications were rend from ex-
President Cleveland, Colonel William
J. liryan and UJshop Henry C Potter
regretting their Inability to be present.
Resolutions were adopted declaring:
"That the full discharge of our ob
ligations to the Inhabitants of the
Philippines requires that we should
without delay help them to secure In
their domestic affairs, first, order, and
then liberty, and that we are absolutely
and unqualifiedly opposed to .the an
nexation of the Philippine Islands as a
permanent portion of the national do
main. "That we are unalterably opposed to
the abandonment by this republic of
the American Idea of national growth
In favor of the European Idea of co
lonial conquest; we unreservedly sub
scribe to the theory that government
derives all Its Just powers from the
consent of the governed, and to the
theory that there should be no taxa
tion without representation, and we be
lieve, moreover, that such theories are
wholly applicable to the Inhabitants of
all the places abandoned by Spain, as
the result of the late war.
That neither the government nor the
people of the United States have In
curred any responsibility or obligation
as to the result of the recent war with
Spain which requires any departure
from or abandonment of the policies
and principles laid down for the guid
ance of the republic by Washington In
his farewell address to the American
people."
The first speaker was James B. Eus-
tls, former ambassador to Prance. Mr.
Eustas said In part:
I see before me an audience in
which I recognize the type of true
Americans banded together to protest
against expansion and Imperialism.
What a strange sight? A meeting of ln
telllgent American citizens on Ameri
can soil protesting against Imperial
ism and Imperialistic policy of the
American government. The representa
tives of the people of this great country
are combatting the idea, and I hardly
feel as though I were living In the re
public of the United States; I feel as
though I were living Instead, In some
continental country where Imperialism
Is recognized,
'The sentiment of the American peo.
pie Is against the rash Idea of expan
slon; for to fight the Filipinos would
mea"rrftfBsof-ilfe to American soldiers
In the future In a sickly clime, If this
wild theory Is carried out. There ara
only two persons whose Ideas on the
question of annexing the Philippines
have given me cause of serious thought
One of them thought that by annexa
tion certain United States merchandise
could be sold to the Filipinos. The
other was a preacher who thought tha
by expansion and annexation he could)
sell some Protestant bibles tp the na
tives. The president of the United
States will on March 4 next adjourn
congress, which will not meet again
until December, during which time he
will become military dictator of more
than twelve and a half millions oj
people In these conquered 'Islands. Tes,
our constitutional president )s gnng ti;
govern them by his personal will, and
will you tell me that the act will not
afford him a swelled head?'
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, was the
next speaker. Mr. Gornpers severely
criticized the Inconsistency of the Uni
ted States government In going to wai
to free the Cubans and of denying the
same measure of freedom and liberty
to the Filipinos, He declared that the
flag of the nation should never be used
to hide tyranny,
He said that It Is not at all Improb
able that the Filipinos will yet be
pome part of the standing army of the
United States and might yet be called
upon to shoot down American wag'
earners, He said it Is Impossible tc
subdue a people by force of arms and
at the same time rnAllHuin our free
Institutions.
W. Bourke Cockran, the next speaker,
said: "This heresy of Imperialism
sweeping over the country Is threaten
lng the stability of our Institutions ani
our measure of free government. II
Is a policy of Infamy. In this country
of ours, the home of alien races, wi
are now raising aloft our hands If.
protest against a policy which. If suc
cessful, will obscure the horizon of the
whole human race. The question ot
Imperialism nnd expansion, boiled down
to Its true Import, Is a dangerous policy
to either adopt or pursue,"

Wanhlneton, Jan. JJ. "If Porto Woo
In to bcome a credit to the United
States," says Captain Augustus P.
Gardner, uwlstant adjutant general ot
volunteers. In an Interesting report to
Assistant Secretary of War Melkeljohn
upon the educational and other affairs
of the Island of Porto IUco. "and not
a continual thorn In her side, It is as
certain ns the rising of the sun that
the work of teeonst ruction must be
done by men of disinterested motives."
In considering, says Captain Gardner.
the various elements which go to make
up the social system ot Porto Klco. the
most worthy of a detailed examination
Is the method of education. It Is on
this branch that the fruits which It Is
hoped may be gathered In the future
must all ripen.
uhnt purports to be a census of the
Island Is taken every ten years, llut
the only one ever published, appar
ently, was that of 1S87. In this the
population was given nt 806,803, of
whom 111.S80, or 16 per cent, could
neither Vead nor write. A comparison
ot these figures with those of a so
oallfd rectification of the census for
1888 reveals a cross blunder some
where, as according to the returns for
that year 2S8.20I, or over twice as many
people as four years later, could neither
read nor write.
For the city of Ponce there Is an ex
cellent census for the year 1897, welt
compiled and to all appearances ac
curate. According to that the city
Jurisdiction covers a population of 49,
000. The uercentage who Could read
nnd write was 29.37-100. Captain Gard
ner believes this percentage Is very
much too high.
Captain Gnrdncr says It Is safe to
estimate the number of schools In the
island at GOO at the outside, of which
less than 40 are private or religious
schools. In the larger townships there
Is one school to about every 1,000 In
habitants. But education Is laid on a
great deal thinner In many parts of
the island, large country districts be
ing without schools entirely, notwith
standing a cumpulsory school attend
ance law. As each township pays for
Its own schools It Is Impossible to es
timate the amount spent on educa
tion annually In the Island. But the
state's contribution amounts to about
C.000 pesos per year, out of which Is
supported certain Institutions.
Summarizing the situation as a
whole there exists on the Island a
fairly good skeleton on which to con
struct a school system. The difficulty
arises from the scarcity of competent
and reliable teachers. In the nature
of things, for the present, but little
progress can be made by American
teachers sent to the Island. Their
sphere of usefulness will not Includ-
Porto IUco until such time as a knowl
edge of the English language has be
gun to permeate all classes.
With regard to the religious ques
tion Captain Gardner says It does not
appear that the Inhabitants of the
Island have ever taken their religion
with any degree of seriousness, prob
ably owing to the fact that the church
Is regarded as one of the means by
which Spain undertook to maintain her
sovereignty over the Island and to pro
vide for the maintenance of such of
her clergy as could not be supported
at home. Altogether the clerical es
tablishment maintains about 210 priests
and assistants, the sum total of whose
salaries amounts to about 150,000 pesos
annually. The salaries of all these
priests, which have heretofore been
paid by the state, have now been cut
off, a state of affairs which seems to
ha viewed with perfect equanimity by
all except the priesthood itself.
That the population of Porto Klco
as a whole has serious grounds of com
plaint on account of excessive taxation
is not proved. But that this taxation
was so distributed and administered as
to seriously Interfere with the small.
and especially with the native merch
ants or planters, cannot be doubted.
The total amount raised by national
taxation has been of late years rather
more than 4,500,000 pesos, a sum equal
to a little over four and a half pesos
per Inhabitants. To Americans, who
are accustomed to a national taxation
of some $7 per capita, the Porto Rlcan
figures seem exceedingly small. Con
trary to the belief which has been
strenuously engendered the fact Is that
out of this 4,500,000 pesos but 350.000 go
directly to Spain In the form of pen
sions. As In all governments, the ex
penses ure largely for salaries, and the
Indignation of the Porto Itlcans Is vast
that these salaries are for the most
part paid to citizens of Spanish birth.
Concluding the report says: "The re
organization of all these various ele-r
pients In. the Porto rtlcan social sys
tern Is an undertaking of enormous
difficulty. If the best men are not put
to this understanding, but the Island
U allowed to become a political play
thing, the Porto mean will be worse
off than he was under Spain,"

and the surfaces of all tho cans were
markedly concave, showing that no
decomposition had benun. This also
was Indicated hy the fart that when
the cans were opened there was an ap

A CHARnUD LIPC.
In a railroad accident the other day a
man sustained ten complete fractures of
the bones of the limbs, three fractures of
the pelvis, and a score of bruises, gashes
and sprains, and yet lie is recovering. Men
ana women sometimes
withstand great physi
cal violence, but suc
cumb to the invisible
germs of consumption
so small that they
can be seen only under
a powerful microscope.
The starting point of
consumption is in the
stomach, which, when
deranged, makes bad
blood because diges
tion is not perfect, and
in bad blood the mi
crobes multiply and
flourish. Sooner or
later the lungs are at
tacked, and in the weak
spots the germs begin
their deadly work of
tearing down the tis
sues. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Dis
covery stops the encroachments of con
sumption microbes. It builds up and
fortifies the whole system by aiding the
stomach in its many functions. It assists
in the proper assimilation of food. This
scientific remedy cures lingering coughs,
bronchitis, bleeding at the lungs, and
every other symptom that eventually
leads to consumption. Dr. R. V. Pierce,
of Buffalo, N. v., who makes this won
derful medicine, gives free, fatherly ad
vice to all who write him.
