be incorporated into the union Of the
United States. They contend that un-
It'll congress has extended the constitu-
ton over Puerto Rico it can govern
that island as it deems best, and can
grant or refuse free trade between the
island and the United States, as it sees
at. In 1904 the republican-democrats
declared that sthe constitution was
made for states, not territories
The supreme court will have to DEE!
eide which OF these three theories of.
the status Of Puerto Rico is correct.
Or it will have to take the ground that
the question is a political one and must
be left to the judgment of congress.
The Philippine question has Its own
peculiar complications. Many of
those who contend that the ratification
of the treaty with Spain made the
Puerto Ricans full-fledged citizens Of
the United States dislike the idea Of
applying their doctrine to the Fill
pinos. So they make the suggestion.
that most of those individuals should
be regarded in the same light as AM
,erican Indians, who, SO long as they
maintain tribal relations, are not con-
sidered citizens Of the United States.
Furthermore, many who are inclined
to believe that the Puerto Ricans have
a constitutional right5to free trade with
the United States dislike to concede5
SO much to the Filipinos. For, if Am
erican products must be admitted free
while all foreign products must pay
the duties set forth in the United States
protective tariff, then foreign nations
will be denied those equal commercial
opportunities in the Philippines they
have been led to expect Should the
supreme court decide that Puerto Rico
is outside the constitution, then there
will be no difficulty about the Philip
pines. Should it decide otherwise,
then many perplexing questions will
present themselves.

There are notable differences Of
opinion as to the status Of Puerto Rico
and It's inhabitants, says the Chicago
Tribune. Many contend that the rat
ifcation of the treaty with Spain made
that island a part of the United States
and its natives American citizens. This
is the view of the a which is taken
by most of the democratic leaders from
conviction or as matter of policy.
There are supreme court decisions
which use language going to- support
this contention. There are others who
claim that the ratification Of the treaty
does not have the effect ascribed to it,
and that until congress legislates con-
corning the island and its inhabitants
the Limitations o. the guarantees OF
the constitution do not apply to it or
to them, butthat when congress enacts
any legislation whatever concerning
the island, then it will become as much
a part Of the United States as Maine
or Illinois. So long, however, as the
executive alone governs the island 1T
viii, IT IS claimed, remain outside the
constitution.
There are others, among them many
Of the republican leaders, who contend
that the ratification Of the treaty does
moi extend the constitution to Puerto
Rico, and that that will not happen un
til congress explicitly SO declares. They
point to the provision IN the treaty thai
the status Of the Inhabitants Of Puerto
Rico shall be determined BY congress
and contrast II with the provisions Q.
other treaties STIMULATING that the in
habitants of Louisiana, Florida. and
the territories ceded by Mexico should

1t is worthy Of note that public men
who have seen the Philippines and
made personal observations of the COM
ditions prevailing there, favor their re-
tention by the United States, for COM
mercial if for no other easons. Joe
Wheeler returns with the same opinion.
as others who have been and seen be-
fore him. He says:
Russia, England, France and Ger
many have braved var and pestilence
to obtain a share Of the wealth which
will come to them by commerce with
this people. The treaty of peace gives
us title Of sovereignty y about IL
100000 of people together with the
islands they inhabit, covering an area
three times as great as our prosperous
empire state. While there may be
many differences Of opinion as to.
whether everything has been conducted
during the two years in accordance with,
the highest wisdom and best possible
Judgment, but there should be no ques-
ton among the people as to the duty
and wisdom of uniting In a demand to
take a firm stand and SO conduct the
affairs of OuEnatiOnin a tanner bene-
fetal to its great glory, honor and pros
perity. 1t is a friendly struggle for
commercial supremacy in which our
rival nations are using their best
efforts and I say let us in a friendly
but determined spirit use our best
efforts also. Our Pacific cities are
now face to face with the eastern
shores of Asia. The Nicaraguan canal
will bring u gulf ports nearer to
them than those of the Atlantic and
Europe. With Manila as a great en-
porium of distribution we could reach
Asia as easy IS from Hong Kong or
Singapore.
TT seems to me there is little limit
to the possibilities that are before us
and we are certainly justified in the
belief and hope that the United States
lis on the Y Of unprecedented pros
perity.'

The monthly crop report issued
by Secretary of State Stearns says
that August was the most favorable
month for agriculture generally that
we have had for years. The wheat
crop of the state is rather discour-
aging and will not average more
than seven bushels to the acre. The
estimated yield of rye for the state
is fifteen bushels. From present in
dications Michigan will harvest one
of the largest crops of corn in her
history. Potatoes are splendid and
will run ninety-three per cent of an
average crop throughout the state.
