Coudert Contends That Porto Rico Isu't
Foreign - Argued In SUI
preme Court.

Washington. Jan. 9-Argument was
begun In the United States supreme
court in the Porto Rican customs
cases now before that court. The
five consolidated cases were taken up
and +. r. Coudert spoke in behalf Of
the plaintiffs against the government
in The case known as the De Lima
case Mr. Coudert devoted consider
able time TO showing that Porto Rico
is not "a foreign country" as that
term is used in the Dingley law under
which the tariff on the Porto Rico
sugar imported into the United
States In November. 1899. was inn
posed in this case. He contended
that by the Paris treaty Porto Rico
had come completely under the SOW
ereignty dHd dominion Of the United
States geographical part Of what
Marshall had called the American
empire
He argued that the cause of the
Paris treaty leaving the determine
ton of the civil rights and political
STAINS of the native inhabitants to
congress was merely declaratory of
the power given by the constitution
to withhold political rights and fran
cbses and to establish civil govern
ment and enact municipal law in all
| places where no state government ex-
lists"
He laid down the general PROPOSE
ton that the constitution Is a charter
or grant Of powers conferred upon
the federal government by the peo-
pie of the United States and hence
that the federal government has no
existence outside the constitution.
Therefore, he sai1, 1t was an imposst-
bility for the United States to pos
sess territory beyond its "constitu-
! tional boundaries. !"
With peace restored congress had
| become supreme in legislating for the
island acquired. but it was. he
| thought, question whether con
gress in the Porto Rican act had not
violated the constitutional restric-
lions. which" he said. 'lie at the
center and foundation of the federal
! powers"
Mr. Coudert asserted that as the
| Dingley act imposed a duty only on
| goods imported from foreign coun-
tries" it could have no applicability
to goods brought from Porto Rice
| to the United States. as Porto Rico
| ceased to be foreign after the rati-
| fcation of the Paris treaty. Such an
act. he said. was a violations Of the
constitutional provision requiring
| uniformity Of duties throughout the
| United States.
He also contended that the Porto
Ricans are citizens of the United
| States. and referred to the anamoly
of giving courts which were not, ac-
cording to the contention of the gov
eminent counsel. courts of the Unit.
ed States. power to make citizens of
the United States, as territorial
/ courts. by naturalization.
| Mr.. Coudert had not concluded
when the court adjourned.

Morgantown. w. Va, Jan. 9.--An
engine running light struck a freight

Under Arrest.

Two more arrests were made today OF
young boys of this city for transgression
of the laws. They were implicated in
the stealing of the Belgian hares and
were arrested and brought before Judge
Sullivan for trial. 1t was developed at
the trial that the boys. Fred Graham
and Chhrlee Bjork, had heretofore borne
good characters and, while the court on
tered judgement in their cases the same
as he did in those OF Starr, Hopkins and
TREY, judgment was also suspended in
their case until their behavior should
warrant their being sent to the state in
dustrial school at Golden which can be
done without further trial, on the least
occasion wherein they have misbehaved
in the sight Of the law.
The sentencing OF these young boys to
the industrial school should be warn
ing 60 other boys who think it is better
to lead disgraceful life than an honor
able one.
The authorities rro bound to break up
the band OF youngsters who have deied
the will Of their parents and have diso-
beyed the laws.

their irresponsible advent into this
wicked world at Lebanon. Pa. have
been dubbed. respectively, Mckinley
and Roosevelt. This is doubtless high
ly complimentary to the Republican
candidates, but it. is hardly considerate
of the babies, who will be compelled
for the balance of their lives to ad-
vertise two men Of public note. Better
James and John, or Charles and
George, or any other plain given
names, which. Joined to their family
patronymic, may be made honorable
and even famous in the after years
without borrowing reelected light
The good old fashion Of handing down
the names Of grandfather and father
to children and preserving the family
traditions - better than hanging ON
the family tree the names of the ma
tons statesmen and heroes whose
records in history will take caro- oe

THE CONQUERED FILIPINoS.

Philippine islands is over. A few
struggling bands OF almost naked
insurgents are annoying peaceful
and quiet settlements, outraging the
quiet people and plundering them
of their substance, and then scurry-
ing away, to the encouragement
of the United States troops which
are sent after them. 'Tis also true
that the localities in which the
United States are in control are ex>
tremely limited, and unless close
watch is kept the outposts are
assailed and the list Of our dead
soldiers is swollen. No attention
is given to the mountain districts.
Most Of them are in possession Of
the Filipinos, and excursions OF our
troops for the purpose OF driving
the enemy from its occupancy Of
natural fortresses are. not as frequent
as they were in the early part OF the
war. No doubt our commanding
general has concluded that that
method of warfare is improbable,
and that it is better to garrison
cities than it is to tramp over
mountains and wade through
disease breeding swamps.
During the recent presidential
campaign the republican leaders
were best employed when they
were making war on the democratic
party as the author OF the unhappy
Philippine condition. They assured
their hearers that with the election
of Mckinley the Philippine traitors
would take prompt action in propi-
tiating our authorities. They
would lay down their arms-cease
their belligerency and become good
citizens. More than sixty days
have passed since the reelection
of William Mckinley, and there
has not been single incident
toward the verifying of the post>
election prophesies OF the republi-
can leaders. On the contrary, the
situation has intensified for the
worse. Our government is holding
less Philippine territory than it did
in the months of September and
October, and is con6ning the opera
tions of the army to districts less
hazardous than those where hght>
ing can. be assured before the
breakfast hour. The question as
to the "living or dead Aguinaldo"
is now up for discussion. But the
means for forwarding intelligence
as to the truth OF that question
seem to be in possession OF the
enemy, and they decline to give
precise knowledge on the subject.
An occasional soldier OF our forces
is unequivoeal in the declaration
that Aguinaldo is dead-dead as a
door nail, and he then congratu-
lates his reader that he could give
more detailed information were it
not that it is not desired that the
Filipinos should be informed on the
subject.
No definite prophesy is INDUCED
in by our commanders as to the
probable duration of the war, other
than to cite instances of struggles
which measure their duration by
decades, and some Of which are
still warning. 1t is comforting to
know that while the contest goes
on quite a number Of gentlemen are
enjoying lucrative positions. 1t is
too bad that official civil life should
