PORTO RLCAN.S CANNOT VOTE.
JUSTkCE FREEDMAN DECIDES A TEST
CASE AGAINST AN ISLANDER.

A Porto Rican is not citizen Of the United
States and has right to vote at next Tues
days election, according to the decision rem
dered yesterday by Justice Freedman. of the
Supreme Court, in the test case brought by
Frank Juarbe who applied for a writ of per-
emptory mandamus to compel the Board Of
Registry of the Twenty-fourth Election District
of the XXVth Assembly District. Manhattan, to
place him on the rolls.
Juarbe had complied with the State law in
relation to voters. Corporation Counsel Whalen
maintained that Juarbe had no right to vote, as
the question of the status Of the Porto Ricans
had been left by the treaty with Spain to Con-
gress, which had not yet decided the subject.
Justice Freedman quotes from the Constitu-
tion the provision that it and the laws of the
limited States made In pursuance oil treaties
shall he the supreme law OF the land, and deals
with decision Of the Supreme Court of the
United States defining the rights OF persons
individually or collectively to become citizens.
THE United States had therefore," he con-
tinues, "the sovereign and undisputed right to
provide in the treaty with Spain that all citi-
zens of Porto Rico should at once become citizens
Of the United States but it was not done"
Article * Of the treaty is then cited by Jus
tice Freedman, in which the following provi-
sion is made:
The civil rights and political status of the
native inhabitants of the territories hereby
ceded to the United States shall be determined
by Congress.
The whole subject Of collective naturalization
was thus, by the express terms of the treaty,
relegated TO the Congress of the United States"
Justice Freedman goes on. THE treaty was
signed on December 10, 1898. and Congress has
not yet acted in the matter under consideration.
The right claimed by the relator depends upon
express proof that the rights of full citizenship
We're conferred, and it cannot be upheld solely
upon the broad claim that the Constitution fol-
lows the flag, the claim that In the United
States there can be no subjects. If it
case in which the relator was sought to be de-
prived Of life. liberty property without due
process Of law, as required by the fundamental
law of the United States, a different question
would be presented.
'InasmuCh, therefore, the case at bar rests
upon a claim Of privilege, and the relator has
failed to show that the privilege was conferred
by the United States, the conclusion is irressti-
BILE that he is not yet a citizen of the United
States within the true intent and meaning of
that term, and that the Board of Inspectors
committed no wrong in refusing to register
him"
