All things come to tho.e who wait, Including rains to break drought, and it Is not yet demonstrated that they are hurried any by prayer. The ?illy season has not produced anything Miller than the talk of an anti-Schley ring. Including the secretary of the navy and the President. The discipline of the present militia encampment is shown by the fact that scarcely a uniformed mnn has been seen on the streets since It began. In addition to it Intrinsic strength the Kepublican city ticket had the merit of having been named by a mass convention of over eleven thousand Republican voters. Mr. John R. McLean's paper declares that the "sober second thought of the Democracy has come to stay." Hut It haa been a long time a-coming in fact, had to be kicked into coming. During the campaign of Po7 Mr. Taggart, then a candidate for re-election, declared in public speeches that temporary loan would never be resorted to while he was mayor no, never. Where are we now? Current predictions regarding the crn crop are chiefly wild guess work- Those who wish to make reliable sstatistics had better wait till "the frost is un thü punkin and the fodder's in the shock." True American enterprise was shown by the shrewd ship captain who stood "off and on" the port of New York with a cargo of 1,200 tons of sugar from Porto Itico until he could land it free of duty under the President's proclamation. It was a neat stroke of business. Senator Jones, of Arkansas, is having a Vigorous right tor re-election. Kx-Governor Clark, his opponent, has given notice that he will present evidence to show that the American Cotton Company, having a patent baling machine, was organized to maintain a monopoly In the business of baling cotton. Senator Jones would not be at. irreparable b)!s to the Senate. Kven if Mrs. Nation had not been sent to Jail for disturbing the peace in Topeka, Kan., last March, she has craved to attract attention. liven those who sustained her on the ground that her lawless methods would arouse the puolic conscience against luwbreiking salcons must see that she did nothing of the kin.!. The saloons in Kansas are doing the same aiao .Kt of lawless business. Dispatches from ilurope announce that the promoters of ;tn attempted commercial alliance agai:i.-t the I'nited States have announced their.j-elve that their unit rtaki:?g Is hopeless ar.d that they will drop it. They will not cease, however, t hte us and to ay evil things of i;s. beeaiu." th .e who lose trade, whither individuals i.r nations, will be Jealous of those who have taken it from them. It Is raid that Agi:i::i!do will be the !adr of a party in the Philippines In tuor of Independence. This Is natural, and if the furrr.er George Washington of the Philippines makes some trouble with his party he will regain the admiration of his friends In this roar. try. Newr. heless. the United States will maintain It soveielnty over . the Island-", giving to the people the fullest control of local affairs that they are littcd to exercise. When two egents appeared at lilrmlngham. Ala., o engage colored laborers to go North, they were arrested on th" charge of misdemeanor. Thl 1 one of many Instances In which the employers of colored labor In the South have rslrtod the efforts of electa to Induce colored laborer to go to

other parts. The truth Is that the mn who employ labor In the South know that the los of any considerable portion of that labor wouM be an unmixed crJ;'intty to the industrial interests of that section. For many reason? oth-T labor will not go to the South under present condition.-;, so that the loss of any portion of it would be irreparable. At the fame time, th-i most heartless thing that agents repre-.-entlr.g Northern employers can lo Is to induce colored men to cotr.e North and become the real victims of strikes.

tiii: rOKTO RIC.W imioclamatiox. Th" President's proclamation declaring free trade between the United States and I'orto Rico Is curiously worded. He does not declare free trade nor the cessation of the tariff in so many words, but declares that certain conditions of the Poraker act have been complied with and leaves the res?t to the operation of that act. The effect is the same as if the President had declared the existence of free trade in set terms, but he does not assume that responsibility. The provision of the Foraker law on this subject is as follows: Whenever the Legislative Assembly of Porto Rico shall have enacted and put into operation a system of local taxation to meet the necessities of the government of I'orto Rico by thl act established, and shall by resolution duly pasj-ed so notify the President, he shall mak- proclamation thereof, and thereupon all tariff duties on merchandise and articles going into I'orto Rico from the United States or corning Into the I'nited States from I'orto Rico shall een?e, and from and after such date nil such merchandise and articles shall be,.en-ter-d at the several ports of entry free of duty. Under this provision It was not necessary for the President to announce that the tariff between I'orto Rico and the United States was repealed; it was only necessary for him to announce that certain acts had been done which the Poraker bill provided should work the repeal of the tariff. The 'effect of the President's proclamation Is to make the Foraker act regarding the repeal of the tariff effective from the date of the proclamation. These comments relate only to the technical operation of the proclamation. As far as the main result is concerned, the establishment of free trade between the Island and the United States, the work is complete. The Foraker law contains the following provision: That as soon as a civil government for Porto Rico shall have been organized under the provisloss of this act and notice thereof shall have been given to the President, he shall make proclamation thereof, and thereafter all collections of duties anci taxe in I'orto Rico under the provisions of this act shall be paid Into the treasury of I'orto Rico, to be expended as required by law for the go eminent and benefit thereof, instead of being paid into the treasury of the I'nited States. Under this provision the President's proclamation works this important change in the fiscal status of I'orto Rico, viz.: That hereafter all duties and taxes collected In the Island will be paid into its own treasury, subject to the control of its own Legislature, instead of Into the tree -ury of the United States, to be appropriated for the island by Congress. This is an important step toward the establishment Of local government. As Porto Rico is now a part of the United States, the Dingley tariff rates apply on all products brought Into the l.-dand from foreign countries, with an addition of 5 cents per pound on imported coffee. All of the revenue arising from these tariff duties will be paid into the I'orto Rican treasury for the government and benefit of the Island. This revenue may not be very large, as the foreign Imports into the island will not bo great, but it will be a material addition to the revenues of the island. Altogether, therefore, the President's proclamation marks the beginning of a new era of prosperity and self-government for Porto Rico. JISTICK TO ADMIRAL SAMPSOX. Ever since the Sampson-Schley controversy assumed an acute phase the Journal has maintained that it was due almost entirely to the Injudicious friends of both, who. In endeavoring to secure highest rank and honors for one, tried to belittle the other. Sampson and Schley have done very little talking, and, as far as known, neither has taken any actie part in the controvers' that has been waged concerning their respective merits. Both show an apparent willingness to stand by thelr.records as they are contained In official reports and will be established by evidence before the court of inquiry. Admiral Schley has shown this willingness by asking for tht court, and Admiral Sampson said a fewdays ago: "I would welcome an Investigation of this whole matter by Congress or by the Navy Department, but I ste no hope of its being taken up." The fact that both ollicers are willing to stand on their records and the finding of a court of inquiry shows they both think they have been unfairly treated and misrepresented by the partisans of the other, and it Is probable that when the real facts are brought out they will show this to have been the case. Meanwhile, it may be remarked that the champions of Schley cannot help him any at the present stage of the proceedings by attacking Sampson. Calling the latter a "drawing room hero" and "a fair weather lighter" ond "Schley's inferior in ability" is not going to change the facts as they are of record. Sampson saw as much active service durin' the civil war as Schley did. and when, at the beginning of the war with Spain, he was appointed to command the North Atlantic squadron, the appointment was universally recognized, and especially by naval officers, as tho fittest that could have been made, p.y thtir present attitude of hostility to Sampson, assuming hint to b" the instigator of the charges against Schley ami abusing hint as if that could help th-Mr favorite, the friends of the latter are following the same Injudicious course they have from the beginning. They should be content with getting justice for Schley without trying to do injustice to Sampson. TUP. QUALIFICATION OF VOTF.HS. A much as any white taan in the South now a member of the Senate. Senator Daniel, of Virginia, can be regarded as a Democratic leader and exponent of the I1e.v of the Southern Democracy. At the same time, his high personal character, hi. abilities and his disposition to consider many questions on their merits, make him a populur man in the Senate. He is a member of tht Virginia convention t ow revising the Constitution of that S'ate. Last Saturday he submitted to a committee of width he is a member a proposition relative to suffrage. It provides that, to vote, a citizen must have resided In the State two yeT; he must have prepaid a poll tax of 11 at least six months before election duy; he or his father or hi wife must own property to the value of rV; he must be able to read the Con stitution, or understand It when It is read to him. These requirements are to be waived In the case of all citizens who are over Klxty years of ug, or who have borne arms In the service of the United States,

of the Confederate States, or of Virginia, provided such exempt citizens are not in receipt of salaries or pensions. Finally, citizens of "recognized good character" may be exempted by the local authorities at th'-ir di cretion from all the requirements, except the prepayment of the 52 roll tax. Special attention is called to Senator Daniel's proposition for the regulation, or, more properly, the restriction of suffrage in Virginia, particularly in that feature which practically denies that the right

to vote is an inherent one of citizenship. The prepayment of a poll tax of $2 Is required, even of "tho citizens of recognized good character." The ability to read the Constitution, or expound It even If the citizen cannot read, and the holding of $3"0 worth of property by father or wife, ar propositions involving Intelligence on the part of the voter, while the holding of X$ worth of taxables Involves a property qualification. This, it is well to emphasize, is the proposition of a leading Southern Democrat. The Democratic papers of the North will denounce the tax and property qualifications, but if anything of the kind were suggested for Indiana, what a howl would go up from the Democratic press! The Daniel proposition would disfranchise a very large majority of the voters of Indianapolis, only one-fourth of whom, at the present time, according to the ofnclal statement of the late City Controller Johnson, pay any sort of tax. The most of these might be able to pay a poll tax, but hundreds of them do not own property to the value of $3. Many Democrats in the North undoubtedly approve the proposition of Senator Daniel for Virginia; if it is wise and just to Impose a property qualification and a $2 poll tax in Virginia, why would it be unwise and unjust in Indiana? Will they tell us? That city employes whoe salaries are due soon should be paid promptly is a matter that admits of no argument; but it Is not fair to hold the Council responsible for any failure in that direction. That temporary loans have been necessary to pay employes is due mainly to Mayor Taggart, who insisted that a 5I-cent levy was sufficient to meet the current expenses of the city in August, 1SW. He told his Council that the amount was ample, and that subservient body vc ted it. The Journal at the time demonstrated that a 70-cent levy was necessary to meet the expenditures of the city, if made upon the scale of the previous year of the Taggart regime. Rut Mr. Taggart was fighting for a third election, and something had to be done to cover up the growth of the city's expenses:, and an inadequate tax levy was hit upon as the device that would deceive. Recause of that device the City Council has been making temporary loans from time to time, and must make more of them to meet current expenses. Mr. Taggart believes In that sort of city financiering, and. perhaps, with his old Council, his fears of a surplus bad good foundation; but a city fchould raise enough money to pay its bills evtry year. The $2jO.OOO or JTJa.OGO of temporary loans which will be needed to pay out the year Is an increase of the city's debt for current expenses a piece of bad policy for which there can be no excuse. Garrett P. Serviss, whose views relative to the cause of the extreme heat were quoted In a dispatch yesterday, can scarcely be said to rank as a scientist, though he is an interesting writer and lecturer. He Is the author of a semiscletitlfic work entitled, "Astronomy with an Opera Glass." and ' also of a semiscientific novel entitled, "Edison's Conquest of Mars," but these wciks are not regarded as contributions to science. Mr. Scrvlss's speculations regarding the effect of the sun's undulatory atmosphere and of the so-called sun-spots upon terrestrial heat are ingenious and plausible, but as yet they lack a good deal of scientific demonstration. Ills prediction that "for the next four j-ears thtse giant outbursts will Increase in fury, and a corresponding series of terrestrial seasons marked by great excesses of temperature, sudden contrasts and extraordinary cyclonic disturbance will follow," savora too much of the Hicks school of prophecy to be entirely trustworthy. Real scientists are not po free with theoretical predictions. The free-trade Philadelphia Record has learned that Canada no longer cares for a reciprocal treaty with the United States that will open our markets to that country. It tells us that Canada has snuggled closer to the home government. This may be true, but, if so, the statistics are at fault. During the fiscal year 1SSS our Imports from Canada were valued at $34,707,OuO and our exports to It $J0,SlJ,50u. During the fiscal year 1SW Canada sold us $C1,GO:J,000 of its products and took ?Sj,573,(ik) of ours. We can stand that sort of thing even if Great Hrltain does pay 23 per cent, less duties on goods sent to Canada than does the United States. Three hundred of the leading business men and taxpayers in Fort Scott, Kan., have signed a statement to the effect that every effort to enforce the prohibitory law has failed, no matter how earnestly begun, and they express the opinion that the only effective way to control the liquor traffic in that city is to enforce the payment of a stipulated sum from every dealer. The same condition exists in other Kansas cities. Wellington's Council made such a bargain with saloonlsts and is using the proceeds of the deal in the construction of sidewalks. The movement for the establishment of a new harbor and perhaps a new town in northern Indiana on the southern shore of Lake Michigan should not be construed as an attempt to compete for the trade of Chicago. It is rather an evidence that the commerce of that city has outgrown its present facilities and finds it necessary to seek new ones in a neighboring State. The trade of a new harbor and town anywhere within fifty miles of Chicago will be as directly tributary to that city as if it were in the cltv limits. Several eotten mills in Fall River. Mass., adopted a plan of sharing a portion of the profits among the employes. Under that plan the twenty-fourth semi-annual dividend of per cent, has been made on the basis of the wages earned by each employe during the six months. Few cotton mills have made regular semi-annual dividends during twelve year. The mill-owners attribute their good business to co-operation. The wonder Is that leaders of labor organizations are generally hostile to anything like co-operation. The One Who Should AVorry. Brooklyn Eagle.

FRKE THADIl WITH POIITO RICO. 1'roelnmnlloii by the President In Accord a nee -wiilx ixv. Foraker Act. WASHINGTON, July 25. The President issued his proclamation establishing free trade between Porto Rico and the United States and declaring the organization of a civil government for the island. The proclamation Is purely formal, and only in the body of the resolutions adopted by the Porto Rican Legislature (heretofore published) does It appear that the island Is set free commercially to-day In commemoration ot the anniversary of the planting of the American Jiajr -ort i the island. The proclamation is headed. "Cessation of Tariff Porio Rico." It recites the act of April 12. K,M (otherwise known as the Foraker act), providing that whenever the Porto Rican Legislature has enacted and put into operation a system of local taxation to meet the needs of government, and by resolution so notified the President, the latter shall issue a proclamation, and all duties on goods passing between the United States und I'orto Rico shall cease. As the Legislature has complied with that requirement of the act In terms set out In the resolutions, which are iuoted in full in the body of the proclamation, that document says: Therefore 1. Wilff iin McKinley, Pr. sident of the United States, in puisuance of the provisions ot the law above quoted and on the foregoing due notification, do hereby issue this, my proclamation, and do declare and make known a civil government for I'orto Rico lias been organized in accordance with the said act oi Congress. And I do further declare and make known that the Legislative Assembly of I'orto Rico has enacted and put into operation a system of local taxation to meet the necessities of the government of Porto Rico." Assistant Secretary Spalding to-day gave telegraphic noiito to all collectors of cus-. toms that free trade exists on and after to-day between the United States and Torto Rico.

BEFORE TI GOVERNOR

.NATIONAL GUARD I AUCH ED IX GRAND REVIEW LAST EVENING. Inspired by Its Impress! veness, the Soldiers Worked Out the Ceremony Perfectly. LIEUT. COL. GIONILLIAT HURT HIS HORSE RAN AWAY AND HE LEAPED FROM ITS HACK. Ills Face Wns Cat Painfully, bat Ills Injuries Are Not Serlons Health of the Camp Excellent. Governor's day at the camp of instruction of the National Guard came to a spectacular and imposing conclusion last night, with the ceremony of grand review in which the entire soldiery of Indiana participated. The spectacle was witnessed by over rive thousand people, drawn not merely from the city, but from all parts of the State, and the consensus of opinion was that the State's troops have never appeared to better advantage. The men went through the various evolutions with as much regularity as If they had been practising for the event weeks beforehand. Preparations for the grand review began promptly at 6:13 o'clock. ' General McKee, accompanied by his staff, rode Into the field first, and took their positions at the reviewing flag in the center of the race track inclosure, opposite the grand stand. The brigadier general's staff is made up of Lieutenant Colonel F. W. Frank, assistant adjutant general; Lieutenant Colonel William M. Wright, chief medical officer; Lieutenant Colonel John T. Barnett, assistant inspector general; Major Harmon L. Hutson, chief quartermaster; Major William II. Kershner, chief commissary of subsistence; Major Guy A. Boyle, acting judge advocate; Major Charles T. Maclntire, chief signal officer; Major Frank E. Strouse, engineering officer; Captain Carroll B. Carr, ordnance officer, inspector small arms' practice, and First Lieutenants Harry K. Scott and W. A. Kreber, aids-de-camp. Immediately following General McKee and his staff came Governor Durbin, attended by his military staff. The Governor was attired in citizen's dress, according to form, and the members of his staff wore fatigue uniforms, as did also the memhers of General McKee's staff. The appearance of the Governor riding towards the reviewing Hag was tne signal ior me artillery, stationed on the extreme left ot the drill field, to begin firing the regulation Governor's salute of seventeen guns. MARCHED PAST THE GOVERNOR. Four cannon were used In firing the salute and the effect of two guns belchhy; forth streams of fire simultaneously to fi. distance of five or six feet, accompanied by thick clouds of smoke, was quite warlike and calculated to stir the blood of the beholder. When the cannonading died, away "To the Colors" was sounded by the buglers and the remainder of the guard marched proudly on to the held ana iormea in line of masses, the signal corps on tha extreme right, then the Second Infantry Regiment, with the First Infantry in the center and the Third on the left. The artillery battalion took up Its position on the left of the Third Regiment. At the extreme left were the hospital and ambulance corps. When the troops were In position the entire brigade was formally presented to the Governor by the brigadier general. The troops were then brought to an order and the brigadier geneal and his staff accompanied the Governor and his staff on a ride about the lines, starting from the right, going around to the left and continuing along the rear back to tho starting point. Unlike the Governor's military staff of a fev years ago, Governor Durbln's staff rode superbly yesterday, the members keeping appropriately close to the commander-in-chief throughout the toar .around the lines. When the Governor and staff and brigadier general and -tafc reached the reviewing flag a second time the troops began to march past them. -in review. As each regiment passed the reviewing officers, the regimental commander turned out and took position on the right of the brigadier general and the regimental band likewise turned out and continued playing until the regiment had passed, after which the- musicians fell in line and marched off the field with the regimentThis process continued until the troops had all marched off the field, after which the reviewing officers rode to brigade headquarters and attended the final ceremony of "lowering the colors." This, too, was a solemn and impressive spectacle, the band playing "Star-spangled Banner," the color sergaants lowering the big flag, while over fifty men mounted on hsndsomo steeds looked on with caps reverently doffed. The thousands of visitors seemed hypno tized by the beauty of the sight they had witnessed and lingered about for over an hour after the conclusion of the ceremonies as If forgetful that they were misoing their evening meal. DEFIED THE HEAT. Yesterday In the camp was unmistakably hot. The temperature was not quite so high as on Wednesday and Monday, but there was a great deal of humidity in the atmosphere to Increase the general discomfort. Nevertheloes. the men of the guard were put through almost the full amount of drill. Throughout the day some kind of worK was being carried on In all parts pf the camp. Soiie of the regiments had battalion drill a:ici regimental drill on the field, while others drilled in quarters. The sighting and pcsitlon practice preparatory to target work was prosecuted vigorously. To-day the men will begin to shoot at the targets and to-morrow morning the same work will be repeated, after which they will take the targets home with them and resume the practice there. The men of the artillery battalion had Blunt's manaal explained thoroughly to them yesterday afternoon. Much excitement was caused yesterday morning when a horse ridden by Lieut. Col. Leigh R. Glgnilllat, assistant inspector general on the Governor's staff, ran away with its rider and finally threw him In one of the barns, causing painful injuries about the heed and face. Colonel Gignilllat Is one of the military instructors in Culver Military Academy at Lake Maxinkuckee and is an expert horreman, but the animal he was riding yesterday became affected by the hest to such an extent that he grew utterly unmanageable. The animal dashed at reckless speed through the camp of the First Regiment, along the road past the tents of the Governor and adjutant general. Into one barn and then made 1 wild ruh into the adjoining barn. Colonel Gignilliat thought there was a crossbar at the front end of the second barn, and. for fear of being killed by coming into violent contact with it. he made a flying leap from the horse. When he struck the ground he came in contact with a pieoe of wood, cutting a gash about an Inch and a half long from a point below the corner of the mouth to about the middle of the chin. One tooth was knocked out and jveral others loosened by th shock of striking the ground. Dr. Pfaff, commanding the brigade hospital corps, quickly had Colonel Gignilllat removed to the feneral hospital, where effective treatment was given the wounded man. Colonel Gignilllat suffered greatly from nhoek. and this necessitated the administration of stimulants. By evening the patient was reat'.r.g comfortably and expressed a desire to return to Culver last night, but Dr. Pfaff prevailed upon him to remain until this afternoon. Colonel Gignilllat was visited by General McKee. Governor Durbin and the members of the National Guard brigade staff and the Governor's staff. SICKNESS IN THE CAMP. There was very little new sickness fn the camp yesterday, in spite of the intense heat. Private Ward Kelly, of Company U, Second Regiment, was brought into the general hospital of the brigade guard yesterday morning, suffering from cramps.

with some hes.t complications. The afternoon drill resulted In Private Boutell. of Company E. First Regiment, being taken to thi gnoral hospital, suffering with stomach trouble. Lieutenant Snyder, one of Sunday night's victims, still remains in tha general hospital. The only other patient Is Private Ben McGee. who was re

moved from the hospital of the First Regiment yesterday morning. McGee Is the man that was reported In yesterday's Journal as having appendicitis. Dr. Pfaff said yesterday that he unl not think the man's condition serious enougn to warrant an operation. Cantaln uarstang. surgeon or the artillery battalion, reported the health of the bat talion as excellent yesterday. There was only one case in the hospital of the First Regiment yesterday, ami imcr sturgeon Hawkins said the men had never been la better health apparently. Private Franklin Hurd. of Company G. Third Resrlment. Columbia City, was or dered home yesterday by Chief Surgeon Barnett on account of sickness. llurd suffered an attack of weed poisoning before coming Into camp, and the effect of the heat has been to aggravate his trouble. There were only two mild cases in the Third Regiment hospital yesterday. The hospital of the Second Regiment nau only three cases yesterday, and these were mild attacks of dysentery. AN ARTILLERYMAN PROSTRATED. The grand review In the evening resulted in only one heat prostration. Corporal Schramm, of Battery B. Fort Wayne, broke down as he was driving a team of horses off the drill field. Schramm seemed to be suffering with nervous prostration, somewhat aggravated by the heat. The horses were fractious, it was said, and this tended to hasten his breakdown. Governor Durbin made a tour of inspection of the entire camp yesterday morning, attended battalion drills, guard mounts and officers' schools. At guard mounts the Governor talked Interestingly to the men of thtir duties as guards, and he emphasized the resjonsibility of their position, telling them that they represent the Governor, the brigadier general, the camp and the State. Last night Governor Durbin yielded to the persuasion of Major Tarlton. officer of the guard, and accompanied the major on a round of the entire guard lines of th camp.
