States, it shall be lawful and with.
in his discretion for the President
to appoint a civil or military gov
ernor of such island, or any group
of such islands, with full autority
under such rules and regulations
as the President shall prescribe,
not inconsis ent with the laws of
civilized warfare, to maintain
good order and to protect lives
and prop rty and the domestic
peace of the people thereof
And there shall be extended
over such islands and enforced
therein such parts and provisions
of the tax laws of the United
States or Of such j. lapps, with OF
relating to customs duties or to

judgment and discretion of the
President be justly applicable to
such islands during the existence

The currency of the United
States, whether f gid, silver ~

tender in said islands, so owned
or occupied, in the same manner
and to the same extent that they

such regulations as shall be made
by order of the President for exc
cutting the same, shall remain in

In a speech delivered in the
United States Senate on the wal
revenue measure Senator German
of Maryland in the course of an
argument in support of the tax
on corporations, denounced as
"infamous" the decision of the
Supreme Court declaring the in
come tax law of 1894 as unconsti-
tutional. German took decided
issue with the majority of his fell
low Democrats upon their propo-
sition to coin the silver seignior-
age and to issue legal tender
notes, and made powerful argu-
ment in favor of the issuance OF
bonds to raise funds with which
to prosecute the war.
