DANGERS WHICH THREATEN AMERICAN LIBERTY By turn ROOT. . Secretary of War later at tha Fottofffc at aaoeM claia matter. I 0 MR. ROOSEVELT'S LETTER TO MR. HOWELL. Undoubtedly Theodore Roosevelt baa bad an opportunity to learn a (Treat deal, even though he has not learned much, since he broke bread with Booker T. Washington in the white bouse. He Is rouh rider enough to eon- ttaually rub the southern people "the ' wrong way," though he may not have ' that end In view while he is rubbing. ' By way of explanation of his course in making federal appointments in the south, the president has written ' letter to Clark Howell touching the matter. In the letter the president claims to "have scant sympathy with the mere doctrinaire, with the man of mere theory who refuses to face facts.'.' . Could the president possibly have riven us a fuller, more complete characterisation of his own attitude than is contained in his words as quoted? : . . --.V ;. ; The concensus of southern opinion today--and it Is supported by a pow EENAL good citizenship is the price of good jven inent. There jet remain and there will come in the future in unending succession problems, doubts,' dif ficulties tnd struggles on which our safety will depend, THERE ARE TODAY QUESTIONS THAT ' . HOLD WITHIN THEM THE. POSSIBILITY Of EVIL FOR OVR COUNTRY AND DEMANDING, THE HARDEST FIBER AND THE MOST DEVOUT PATRIOTISM. ; One of them is the tendency growing, I fear to a division between the rich and the poor, a division by which WEALTH TENDS TO UNDUE CONTROL OVER LEGISLATION, and poverty tries to stir up a war of classes based on envy and jealousy of the rich. The very results of our prosperity tend to increase this evil, and every good citizen should lend himself to the task of seeing to it that never shall we have a war of classes. Another' danger fraught with most serious consequences is the tendency to" check individual enterprise, opportunity and develop ment. The chance that every poor boy has to rise as high as men can go is'-tbo very? foundation of American liberty. Yet labor organization of this country are including in their rules provisions prohibiting the 'better man from earning better wages than the man oaay-'-ana it is supponea oy pow. - ;v , -, , ,. ..

' Since Porto Rico was annexed to the United States In 1898 the development of commercial relations between the two countries has been pnenomenai. The policy of freedom of trade be tween the two countries has been mark edly vindicated. The people of Porto Rico now find a market in this country for five times as much of their pro ducts as they did in 1897; while the ' United States find a market in Porto Rico for more than five times as much of their products as in. 1801, ; Some figures just compiled by the treasury bureau of statistics, covering commerce between the , United States and Porto Rico in the calendar year ' 1902 and compared with the figures of preceding years, fully sustain this as sertion. They show that the value of merchandise shlppedfrom Porto Rico to the United States in 1902 was tt, 734,188, against (1,943,251, in 1807; and that the value of merchandise shipped from the United States to Porto Rioo In 1902 was 112,193,297, against 82,023, 751 in 1897. s The principal articles for " which Porto Rioo finds a market iathe United States are . sugar, ! tobacco, , coffee, fruits, manufactures of straw, hides and skins, and distilled spirits. The principal articles for which the United States finds a market in Porto Rico are rice, cottoncloths, manufactures of iron and steel, provisions, breadstuffs, manufactures of wood, boots and ahoes, spirits, tobacco, refined sugar, cars and carriages, paper, chemicals and coal; the articles named in each case being in the order pf their relative value in the commerce passing in each direction, respectively, '. - f9 fiiiornr' and mnlifiiM Mni fmm Porto Rico to the United States, the value in 1902 was 16,754,261, against 5,831,274 in 1901; of tobacco, in 1902, t2.192.790, against 780,259 in 1901; of coffee, 1223,891, in 1902, against $6,209 in 190L , '',.' 1 Of shipments from the the United States to Porto Rico, rice amounted in value to 12,022,497,' in 1902, . against 11,565,402 in 1901; cotton manufactures, 11,970,823, against t2,114,212 in 1901; iron and steel manufactures, 11,643,085, arralnst f(5e,53J in 1901: provisions.
