If the Piirto ttlrnn Di'fl
nlnn In Adopts-il.
I'etcr Cooper club members have taken
a good Ion; tlmo to think over tho de
cision of tho supreme court In the l'orto
Itlcnn cases uuil have reached the con
elusion thnt they nrc Indignant about It.
Tho longer they thought about It tho huttur
they got, until they have finally reached
thj stage wherein they don't enro u tent
who knows it.
When L. J. Quluby united tho meeting
to order nt WuslilUKton hall hist night
he probably did not notice that there were
Jmt thirteen members present. J. J.
I'olnts was called upon to act as secre
tary. Things had not progressed far when
J. E, Kellogg camo in and broke tho
hoodoo, swelllnp tho number to fourteen.
A stranger who came In still Inter car
ried tho attendance up to fifteen, where. It
remained, Among those present weic tho
fojr men abovu Indicated, .Allen Hoot, S.
A, Lewis, A. A. Perry, James Mc.Monlcs,
K. I. Morrow, George Maguey, K. 8, Jlor
ton and Mr. Duron.
Uncut Inn of Wi anil Moulin.
Under the head of new bublness E. I.
Morrow brbught up an old topic. Ho some
what Indignantly pointed out tho tndlsposl
tbn manifested by Uo-.iglas county popu
lists to contribute to tho party campaign
funds. Recently punlthhcd statements
showed thnt whllo other counties had con
tributed liberally Douglas county has sup
plied something like ?3 to tho stnto cam
paign funds. Ho was authorized by Ulmor
E. Thomas to bay thnt that gentleman
was willing to form a list of populists
who would contribute f 10 each toward wip
ing out the Indebtedness of tho Htate com
mittee. Messrs. Morrow, Mngney and Ycl
sc" woro accordingly made a commlttco to
raise funds.
The club voted its endorsement of Jumcs
McMonlcs for a position In tho oiMco of
Tax Commissioner Fleming during tho busy
senfton, but before tho meeting was over
L. J. Qulnby gave It out cold that here
after he would bu opposed to endorsing
any ono for u political Job who had, after
once being endorsed, shown so little re
spoct for tho club as to fail to attend Its
meetings nnd pay his dues. Ho said that
thoro were a number of that character
holding positions In tho courthouse.
Aillri'N to the l'ulillc.
A committee comprising L. J. Qulnby, J.
J. I'olntfl nnd Oeorgo A. Mugney submitted
tho following nddress on the subject for
discussion, which was received nnd the
committee discharged:
The Peter Cooper club respectfully sub
mits the following nddrcHs for tin- consider
ation of cnmlld men relatives to the recent
decision of the United States supremo
uoun in ino i-orio menu cases:
The court held by a vot of tlve to four
that the Island of l'orto Itlco Is a territory
belonging to the United Stntrs, but not a
part of the United Statu within the revenue
clause of the constitution, which provide
thut "all duties, Imposts and excises shall
be uniform throughout tho United States,"
nnd that tho Foraker net, which provides
that certnln duties shall be collected on
merchandise brought from Porto Hlca to
the United StateB, is constitutional and can
be enforced.
This decision Is fnr-reachlng In Its effect
and apparently but few. reallre. Its true Im
port. . 4
It means that tho colonial pollcS" of the
present, administration will hereafter be
held to bo constitutional by nt "least x ma
Jorlty of one (all It needs) In the highest
tribunal In the land.
It means that the theory which has here
tofore prevailed, that congress Is tho crea
ture nt the constitution and has no powers
except those delegated by the constitution,
Is no longer tho rule, and that htivuft r
the supreme court will hold, when this
colonial policy Is Involved, that conere-H
has nn existence and can excrclso uuthorlty
outside of the constitution contrary to tho
tenth amendment to the constitution, which
reads: "The powers not delegated to th
United States by the constitution nor pro
hibited by It to the states nre reserved to
the states respectively or to the people."
It means that hereafter tho supreme
court may be depended upon to sustain the
theory that congress may by ncilon talten
outside of the constitution engraft upon our
republican Institutions a colonial system
such ns exists under monarchical govern
mentfl. It means that hereafter this Country may
ncqulre territories anywhere upon the
earth, by treaty or by conquest, ami hd'tt
them us mere colonies or provinces, while
the people Inhabiting them are to enjoy
only such rights its congress may seo lit
to accord them.
It means that the principle contended for
by tho founders of our government, that
there shall be no taxation without repre
sentation and no government without the
consent of the governed, shall no longer
prevail.
It means that l'orto Rico, whose officers
aro appointed by the United States, miy
be treated ns If It were not a pnrt of t e
United States, nnd hence It follows th t
New Mexico and Ailzonu. mar be treated
as though they were no part of the United
States, yet Bubject to such legislation 0.1
congress may choose to enact, wltnout
rererence to tne restrictions imposed by tno
constitution.
It means that the constitution does not
follow the flag nnd thnt we who demanded
liberty and equality before tho law lor
ourselves now deny them to others.
Cniiaf. for Worry.
Wo therefore conclude that this remark-
ublo decision Is h long step toward empire,
inai tnis government is now lurgeiy in tne
bands of a class who favor laws that will
protect property, rather than men, ard
that, whilu eternal vlcilnnce Is tho nrlcu of
liberty, the present apathy nud unconcern
of the average citizen In thu face of tins
monstrous decision bode no good for the
hope the American people have heretofore
had In tho constitution and the Declaration
of Independence.
This dangerous doctrine which becomes
a precedent by virtue of thU decision is
well rebuktxl by Justice llarlun In his dis
senting opinion, as follows: "Theao a 0
words of weighty import. They Involve
consequences of the most momentous char
acter, 1 uuen leuvo to say mat it inn
principles now announced should ever re
ceive thu sanction of a mulorlty of this
court the result will bo n radical and mis
chievous chance In our system of govern
ment, Y will in that event pass from
the era of constitutional liberty, guarded
nnd protected by a written constitution,
Into an era of legislative absolutism In
respect of many rights that are dear to
all peoples who lovn freedom."
The spirit that fostered this nation wns
tho spirit of the Declaration of independ
ence thnt spirit which declared thnt "all
men are created equal," that "governments
derive thulr Just powers from the content
of tho governed,'' thut "taxation without
representation is tyranny" and that thu
right of tho people to representation In the
legislative body Is "11 rljht Inestimable to
them and formidable to tyrants only." It
wns tho. heart throb of three millions o
munklnd It was the soul of Inspiration to
Wushlngton and his bleeding und frozen
forces at Valley Forge, It fired tho genlui
of Jackson at New Orleans. It was tho
beaconllght In tho dismal and gloomy path
of Lincoln In the dark days of tho rebel' "ii.
It waB the spirit that beckoned on the
heroea of America only three short ye irs
ugo, as from hill unu valley throughout
this lund patriots of America enllMod In
the caure of stricken Cuba.
Are these principles false? Has America
lived 11 He for 125 years? Is liberty but n
phantom? Is freedom a dream? Docs the
''flag mean ono thing hern and another
thing In our colonial possessions?" A ter
all tho tours, sorrows. and despair of count
less millions who have died that liberty
might live after all, Is It true tlmt th
dlvlno right of kings Is the correct prin
ciple of government?
These aro tho questions- that tho Amcrl-

And In making ti ls decision let American

l'orry wns of the opinion that there Is no
government and no law today except the
will of those In power. Allen Hoot thought
that tho address was entirely too tamo and
declared that under the decision of tho su
preme court President McKlnley stands In
tho position that Oeorgo III occupied
toward tho Amerlrun colonies nnd Is king
of Cuba, Porto Itlco and the Philippines.
Tho stranger threw tho blamo all on the
people nnd declared thnt what Is needed Is

WRESTLING RESULTS IN DRAW
Peter I.ocli and John llolilen Unit
ICven After .More Tlinn nn Hour
of StriiKjxIliiK.
After ono hour and nineteen minutes of
n struggle, the wrestling match between
Peter Iich nnd John Holden ut the Omaha
School of Athletic Culture lust nlgln wai
cnllcd a draw. Uoth men were greatly ex
hausted und Holden. though he hnd secured
the first and only fnll, wus willing to call
It even.
Tho mutch wns for J1O0 a side, cntch-ns-catch-enn.
pin falls only, best two out of
three, rolling and Hying falls barred. Holden
weighed 1GB pounds nnd Loch 150. Holden's
strength called forth ull Loch's superior
sclcnco nnd Loch did most of tho work all
through. Of the seventy-nine minutes they
wrestled Loch was on top seventy. Holdnn's
fall was secured largely by chance. The
opportunity for It en mo In a m:xup, Just
jxa Ixch was putting n full of his own
Into effect, nnd Holden's strength made .t
possible for htm tu turn the tables at the
critical junctur" when he got Lien's foot
tu nn elbow look.
The prcilmliuu.v bout was between two
locul amateurs, Tom Mitchell, nt 176 pounds,
and Clarcnco lingllsh. at 123 pounds.
Mitchell was to throw Tlngllsh twlc In
half an hour or lose the match. He (.ecuretl
tho first fall In threo minutes and llfty
ulght seconds, with a halch body hold, be
fore eltlur man whs wet. lie was unnrdo
to get another, however, and Kngllsh had
tho better of the last llfteen minutes of tho
bout, winning the match.
Loch and Holden worked llftv-two min
utes beforo Peter llnally succumbed to a
leg and arm and rolling cross-body fall.
All tho tlmo Holden had been underneath
and on the defensive, loch worked c n
stantly for a hammerlock, securing innny
other holds besides, but his strength was
not equal to carrying crotch and half
Nelson holds to a fall. Time nnd ngaln
ho got them, but Holden nlwuys broke In
time.
Fifteen minutes' rest wus n'lowed nft r
this fall and It was tho opinion that Holden
would quickly end the mutch by getting
another one. Emboldened by his succeia,
ho camo out nnd went on the offensive.
Three times ho secured fine holds, and
twice full Nelsons, but Loch would get
away. Hoth times, Instead of bridging tno
full Nelsons or breaking them by sheer
strength, Loch backed out of them, tuning
terrible punthhinent about tho neck And
shoulders meanwhile, but succeeding.
Thun the tnbles turned and Peter was
again on top. Tlmo and again he got his
opponent's shoulders started for tho mat
and onco they wero almost down, but
Holden always wriggled away magnificently
Just at thu scratch.. After twonty-seven
minutes of the second bout, when foth men
wero lying exhausted on the floor, Loch
on top, they agreed to call It a draw und
Informed the referee to that effect.
Captain Sullivan of flro truck No. 3 In
tended to challenge the winner had a
decision been reached. Ioch has nrrangrd
a match with K. H. Morgan of this city
for ?500 a side. Ho Is to throw Morgan,
who weighs 126 poundB, threo times In nn
hour or lose . , , .
Cnptaln Sullivan refereed the match und
K. It. Morgan was timekeeper.

DUN'S REP0RJ FOR JUNE
Failure Somewhat Heavier Tlinn
Those for Two Preeeillnn
Monlhx,
NEW YORK, July 11. Classified failures
as returned to R. O, Dun & Co, for Juno
show failures somewhat heavier than In
tho' three preceding months and tho same
month In tho two preceding years, but
prior to 1SW last month's liabilities would
have beon considered extremely light
In manufacturing, the total was $l,5lS.5t7
larger than lait year, but a few unusual
disasters account for the difference. De
prcsslou In the cotton manufacture, due to
oerproductlon from high-priced maicrial
had almost passed away without bringing
any serious failure, nnd the fact hail been
mentioned as remarkable In connection with
earlier ruports, Ono large concern, how
ever, proved unable to bear tho strait'
long cuough, and Us debts account for
practically all of the June figures, which
exceed the narue month of any recent yenr
In other textile liner also, tho mouth s
record Is not pleasing, but ns the new
fiscal yenr has brought definite Improve
ment In these branches of manufacture
there Is every reason to expect no further
largo neslgumcnts.
Few failures occurred among llo.uor nnd
clgarinakers, but two large breweries fur
nlshed liabilities of $450,000. Little nl
teratlon appears In the trading losses, as
compared with tho two previous good
years, but defaults were much lighter than
in any June prior to 1899.
