In his argument before the Supreme
Court yesterday Attorney General Griggs
advanced the startling proposition that
before Rhode Island and South Carolina
accepted the Constitution of the United
States they were treated as foreign States.
Well. what else could they be? Being
sovereign and unconquered. they naturally
were foreign until they became domestic
by their own voluntary action. When they
elected to come into the Union they ceased
TO be foreign. In exactly the same way,
when Porto Rico came into the Union by
conquest and equally by the free will of
its people Porto Rico ceased TO be foreign
and became American. We sympathize

Rev. A. H. Tebbets, assistant super

benevolent society. He addressed the

on Sunday, and had with him a six
year old girl for whom he was seek

as representatives of the Children s

should be on their guard. A warning
to the charitable public is published
in the Minnesota Children's Home
Finder, the society's' organ which is
printed in St. Paul. It discloses the
names of some of these unscrupulous
persons who have been collecting
large sums of money in different parts
