te's Recent Vuit
MUCH GOOD WORK DONE
Made Under American Ad
ministration Is Pointed to with
Pride Last Year the Most Pros
perous the Island Has Ever Known
i Congress Urged to Confer Full
American Citizenship Upon the
Porto Ricans Afoule Have All In-
sufar Governments Placed in One
Bureau.
Washington. President Roosevelt's
message, describing conditions in Por
to Rico, and making recommendations
for legislation he believes necessary,
was read to the congress. It Is as fol
lows: To the Senate and House of Represen
tatives: On November 21 1 visited the Island
f Porto Rico, landing at Ponce, cross-
lag by the old Spanish road by Cayey
to San Juan, and returning next morn
lag over the new American road From
Arecibo to Ponce; the scenery was
wonderfully beautiful. especially
among the mountains of the interior,
which constitute a veritable tropic
Switzerland. I could not embark at
San Juan because the harbor has not
been dredged out and can not receive
an American battleship. I do not
think this fact creditable to us as a
station, and I earnestly hope that im
artediate provision will be made for
dredging San Juan harbor.
I doubt whether our people as a
whole realize the beauty and fertility
f Porto Rico, and the progress that
fcas been made under its admirable
government. We have just cause for
pride in the character of our represen
tatives who have administered the
tropic islands which came under our
Sag as a result of the war with Spain;
and of no one of them Is this more
true than of Porto Rico. It would be
Impossible to wish a more faithful, a
ssore efficient and a more disinter
ested public service than that now be
ta; rendered in the island of Porto
Rico by those la control of the insular
government
I stopped at a dozen towns all told,
and one of the notable features in
very town was the gathering of the
school children. The work that has
been done in Porto Rico for education
bas been noteworthy. The main em
phasis, as is eminently wise and prop
er, has been put upon primary educa
tion; but In addition to this there is a
normal school, and agricultural school,
three industrial and three high
schools. Every effort is being made to
secure not only the benefits of ele
mentary education to all the Porto
Rlcans of the next generation, but
also as far as means will permit to
train them so that the industrial, agri
cultural and commercial opportunities
of the island can be utilized to the
best possible advantage. It was evi
dent at a glance that the teachers,
both Americans and native Porto
Rlcans, were devoted to their work,
cook the greatest pride in it. and were
endeavoring to train their pupils, not
only in mind, but in what counts for
far more than mind in citizenship, that
Is, In character.
I was very much struck by the ex
cellent character both of the insular
police and of the Porto Rican regiment-
They are both of them bodies
that reflect credit upon the American
administration of the island. The in
sular police are under the local Porto
Rican government. The Porto Rican
regiment of troops must be appro
priated for by the congress. I earn
estly hoie that ibis body will be Ke,a
permanent. There should certainly be
troops in the islan-l. and it Is wise
that these troops should be themselves
native Porto Ricans. It worj'd be
from every standpoint a mistake not
to perpetuate this regiment.
In traversing the island even the
ost cursory survey leaves the be
holder struck with the evident rapid
growth in the culture both of the su
gar cane and tobacco. The fruit in
dustry is also growing. Last year was
the most prosperous year that the
island has ever kno vn before or sines
the .American occupation. The total
of exports and imports of the island
was $45,000,000. as against T1S,000,000
In 1901. This is the largest in the
Island's history. Prior to the Ameri
can occupation the greatest trade for
Spanish Custom in Decay.
Formerly the dowry of every peas
ant girl in Spain Included a set of
linen sheets. On account of the in
creased cost of linen, this branch of
trade has dwindled down to an insig
nificant figure.

atteatioa to the accompanying memo
rial car this supject of the board of
trade of San Juan, and I earnestly
hope that some measure will be takes
for the benefit of the excellent aad
high grade Porto Rican coffee.
There Is a matter to which I wish
to call your especial attention, and
that Is the desirability of conferring
full American citizenship upon the
people of Porto Rico. I most earnest
ly hope that this will be done. I can
not see how any harm can possibly re
sult from it, and it seems to me a mat
ter of right and justice to the people
of Porto Rico. They are loyal, they
are glad to be under our flag, they are
making rapid progress along the path
of orderly liberty. Surely we should
show our appreciation of them, our
pride in what they have done, and
our pleasure in extending recognition
for what has thus been done, by grant
ing them full American .citizenship.
Under the wise administration of the
present governor and council, marked
progress has been made In the difficult
matter of granting to the people of the
island the largest measure of self-government
that can with safety be given
at the present time. It would have
been a very serious mistake to have
gone any faster than we have already
gone in this direction. The Porte
Ricans have complete and absolute
autonomy in all their municipal gov
ernments, the only power over them
possessed by the insular government
being that of removing corrupt or in
competent municipal officials. This
power has never been exercised save
on the clearest proof of corruption or
of incompetence such as to Jeopar
dize the interests of the people of the
island; and under such circumstances
it has been fearlessly used to the im
mense benefit of the people. It is not
a power with which it would be safe,
for the sake of the island itself, to dis
pense at present The lower house is
absolutely elective, while the upper
house is appointive. This scheme is
working well; no Injustice of any kind
results from it. and great benefit to
the island, and it should certainly not
be changed at this time. The machin
ery of the elections Is administered en
tirely by the Porto Rican people them
selves, the governor and council keep
ing only such supervision as is neces
sary in order to insure an orderly elec
tion. Any protest as to electoral fraeds
is settled in the courts. Here again it
would not be safe to make any change
in the present system. The elections
this year were absolutely orderly, un
accompanied by any disturbance; and
no protest has been made against the
management of the elections, although
three contests are threatened where
the majorities were very small and
error was claimed; the contests, of
course, to be settled in the courts. In
short, the governor and council are co
operating with all of the most enlight
ened and most patriotic of the people
of Porto Rico in educating the citizens
of the island in the principles of order
ly liberty. They are providing a gov
ernment based upon each citizen's self
respect, and the mutual respect of all
citizens; that is. based upon a rigid
observance of the principles of justice
and honesty. It has not been easy to
instill into the minds of people unac
customed to the exercise of freedom
the two basic principles of our Ameri
can system; the principle that the ma
jority must rule, and the principle that
the minority has rights which must
not be disregarded or trampled upon.
Yet real progress has been made In
having these principles accepted as
elementary, as the foundations of suc
cessful self-government.
I transmit herewith the report of the
governor of Porto Rico, sent to the
president through the secretary of
state.
All the insular governments should
be placed in one bureau, either In the
department of war or the department
of state. It is a mistake not so to ar
range our handling of these islands at
Washington as to be able to take ad
vantage of the experience gamed In
one, when dealing with the problems
that from time to time arise ia an
other. In conclusion let me express my ad
miration for the work done by the con
gress when it enacted the law under
which the island is now being admin
istered. After seeing the island per
sonally, and after five years' expert
ence in connection with its adminis
tration, it is but fair to those who de
vised this law to say that It would be
well-nigh Impossible to have devised
any other which in the actual working
would have accomplished better re

Italian Mother's Dream Followed by

A strange case of telepathy In con
nection with a murder is arousing
much interest in Milan, Italy. A wo
man named Lazzaronl awoke sudden
ly at three o'clock the other morning,
and calling her son John, who lives
in her house, told him that his
younger brother. Leopold. living In
the outskirts. of the town, was dead.
The mother was deeply affected,
but John tried to comfort her by as
cribing her fears to a bad dream. At
dawn, however, Leopold Lazzaronl, a
handsome and strong young man, the
owner of a dairy, was found dead at
a spot some distance from his dwel
ling. After having made an examina
tion of the body, the doctors affirmed
' that Leopold had beep murdered ac
tually at three o'clock in the morn
ing. The next day the culprits were ar
rested. The facts of the mother's vision,
which have been duly authenticated,
are the subject of endless discussion.

'Last year I suffered with a tremen

the whole body, and only my face and
bands were free. For four months or
so I suffered torments, and I had to
scratch, scratch, scratch, until I bled.
At night when I went to bed things
got worse, and I had at times to get
up and scratch my body all over, until
I was as sore as could be. and until I
suffered excruciating pains. They told
me that I was suffering from eczema.
Then I made np my mind that I would
use the Cuticura Remedies. I used
them according to instructions, and

ATTRACTIONS .OF WESTERN
V CANADA.
Crap
YeartfOt.
The manner in which the Canadian
West has attracted settlers In recent
years has canned many of oar jonraals
and public men to "sit np and take no
tice,'' to nse a enrrent phrase. From
every Earopean coentry and. from al
most every State la the Union large
number of settlers have locked to the
prairie provinces of- Canada, where
free homesteads aad wide opportnn
itles are open to an who desire to
avail themselves of them.
The greatest factor la attracting
settlers lies in the inherent richness
of soil aad suitability of climate for
producing what Is universally consid
ered to be the finest wheat In the
world the "No. 1 Hard" of Canadian
growth and other cereals that rank
In the very first class. This year the
harvest returns were: Wheat 9V
$80,000 bushels; oats. 76,000.000 bush
els; barley, 17,000.000 bushels; and
when it Is considered that the entire
population of the three provinces as
evidenced by the qtklnquennlal census
just completed Is only 810,000, -it Is
easily seen that the lure of the Cana
dian West Is in. Its agricultural poten
tialities. Another feature which attracts the
settler is that railway construction Is
proceeding with such rapidity that al
most every district "Is within easy
reach of outside markets, and that
good prices for all lines 'of farm prod
ucts rule practically from the com
mencement of agricultural "operations.
This Is a factor which did not prevail
when the earlier settlements in the
West were nftoe In Canada and In the
United States, and has given1 a great
impetus to Canadian Western settle
ment in recent 'years.
The free grant system of home
steads which' prevails in the prairie
provinces, by which1 every settler who
is able and willing to comply with the
conditions of actual settlement (by no
means onerous) is given 160 acres
free, except $10 for entry, is a great
drawing card, and in the last fiscal
year gathered in over 189,000 addi
tional to the western population, of
which 57,798 were from the - United
States.
The further fact, as Is strongly
brought about by the agent of the
Canadian Government whose address
appears elsewhere, that" a splendid
common school system, practically
free, prevails throughout the entire
country, and is easy of access in even
the most remote districts, Is another
great inducement to the settler who
has the future welfare of his family
In mind, and this, coupled with the
fact that western Canadian law and
order are proverbial, completes a
circle of good and sufficient reasons
why the tide of Immigration has set
In so steadily toward the country to
the north of our boundary line.
The Highest, Bridge.
Work Is now in progress on a sus
pension bridge over the famous "Roy-(
al gorge" of the Arkansas river, in'
Colorado, at a point where the chan
nel Is only 50 feet wide at the bottom
and 20 feet wideat the top. This
bridge will .span ithe river 267 feet
above the surface, of the water, and
will be. therefore, by far the highest
bridge in the world. The material
will be of flat steel and steel cables,
the curved girders finding secure at
tachment in the solid sides of the can
yon. The floor of the bridge will be
of plate, glass one and one-half Inches

The Evils of Constipation,
are many; In fact almost every se
rious illness has its origin in consti
pation, aad some medicines, instead of
preventing constipation, add to it
This is true of most cathartics, which,
when first used, have a beneficial ef
fect, but the dose has to be contin
ually increased, and before long the
remedy ceases to have the slightest
effect There is one preparation, how
ever, that can be relied upon to pro
duce the same results with the same
dose, even after fifty years' dally
use. and this is Brandreth's Pills,
which has a record of over 100 years
as the standard remedy for constipa
tion and all troubles arising frem an
impure state of the blood.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pill your grandparents

Where Lawyers Are Unpopular.
A lawyer made his appearance at
Colobar, West Africa, the other day
and a Gold Coast newspaper, noting
the fact, said: "It is very unsafe for
the people for lawyers to practice at
this place. Their appearance ia this
river will scon Inveigle everyone who
is not careful into litigation, and they
will feed on their folly, thereby ruin
ing them."
Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, It Is usually neces
sary to nse so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind, a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De
fiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.
