She had held the job Of teaching the

many interesting replies to her questions
concerning the Bible. But the red

The Sunday school lessons are now con

her all he knew concerning Joseph and his

The court there under Judge Stewart
closed its term. There was not case

some people TO reflect over charges made
against the Miners Union.

Porto Rico Has Passed Through Three
Distinct Periods Since Occu-

NEW YORK, May Ex-senator ]. 3.
Foraker made the following statement
concerning the supreme court decision:
In order that the decision may be
fully understood it is necessary TO bear
in mind that Porto Rico has passed
through three distinct periods that have
relation to these cases In the first
place, prior % the Spanish American
war, Porto Rico was a province Of
Spain and as such foreign territory in
every sense Of the word. The island re-
mained foreign territory in a legal
sense Notwithstanding our conquest
and military occupation until the rat
fication Of peace, when It ceased to be
foreign territory and became a posses
sion or became a dependency Of the
United States but not a part Of the
United States. Being a dependency Of
this coun .ry it was domestic territory
as Ontra-distingulshed from foreign
territory. 1t is domestic territory still,
but It underwent a further change in
its legal relations to this country when
congress enacted the law Of April II,
1900, providing a civil government and
the tariff duties Cor the support Of the
same. Since April y, 1900, it is terri

Secretary Roots Opinion on Supreme
Court Decisions.

Secretary Roots Opinion on Supreme
Court Decisions.
NEW YORK. May 2s.-Secretary Root
is quoted in a Washington dispatch to
the Tribune. as saying OF the supreme
courts decision in the insular cases:
"UnQuestlonaby the decision Of the
court sustains the contentious and poll
cv adopted by the administration in
conducting the affairs OF the Spanish
Islands since the ratification OF the Par
is treaty. The upholdng of the For
aker act signifies that congress has
the power to legsdte without being
limited by the provisional contingencies
Of the constitution. For instance the
constitutional provision setting forth
that uniform duties must be collected
does not apply 10 the Islands. The gem
eral result Of the decision is certain
ly very gratifying
"Of course there will be some little
emoarrlssments caused by the holding
thar no duties can be collected except
by congressional legislation. but it will
BE- only a temporary embarrassment"
