Porto Rico tariff debate and rural drainage plea in Humboldt county
The Humboldt Humboldt county newspaper comments on Porto Rico tariff policy, arguing for free trade principles versus a 15 percent tariff, and discusses constitutional reach over new territories. It also urges a drainage law to compel landowners on natural outlets to drain their low-lying farms, citing Indiana law as a model and stressing the agricultural gain from proper drainage. Additionally noted are South African War developments, a local case of hydrophobia, and a shoe ad endorsement from M. TD Well’s.
