THE RIGHTS OF CITIZENSHIP.
An Important Question to Come Be
fore the Supreme Court

The next question the Supreme Court
OF the United States viii be called to pass
upon in relation to the status of Porto
Rico and the Philippines, said an official
of the Treasury Department this morn
ing. will be that OF citizenship This
question Of citizenship has already en-
barrasssd the Administration, and il VIII
annoy the officials more than the uues-
ton Of tariff. Only the ether day the
Treasury Department acting under the
law regulating immigration ordered de
ported a number OF Filipinos who came
here for the purpose OF attending, or
rather of taking part in, the Buffalo Pan
American Exposition. The Fiipinos were
held up at the port in San Francisco be
cause of their physical condition, and the
Secretary of the Treasury issued the order
10 send them back to the Philippines
Now, the point l make Is this: If the
FiIipiUOs are citizens of the United States,
and they must he so considered for ce-
dul1s were issued to several who happen
I'd to be in London q few days ago then
they had perfect right To land in San
Francisco. and to deny them that right
was an usurpation Of authority. The
same action. I take it. might be applied
to Porto Rieans. although on motion OF
the Porto Rican Commissioner. Mr.. DeSe-
tan, was admitted to practice before the
Supreme Court of the United States and
the law distinctly says no one but a citi-
zen of the United States can be admitted
TO practice before that august tribunal
And, continued the official. 1T should
be remembered that when the question
of the contract labor law was raised by
the arrival Of a Porto Rican under con-
tract, the Treasury Department. when
pressed to make a test case of whether
or not the contract labor law applied to
the citizens of Porto Rico, automatically
avoided the issue by releasing the Porto
Eican, VINO at first had been arrested on
the ground OF violating the contract labor
law. OF course, if the courts hold that
citizens Of Porto Rico and the Philippines
are citizens Of the United States, then it
Is very clear that the contract labor law
cannot apply to them and they viii be
free 10 come and go into all parts of the
country.
Take the case of the FfIfpfnos who
were denied the right to land in San
Francisco If il should be held that they
are citizens Of the United States they viii
have good ground for action against the
authorities If 4 citizen goes abroad and.
for instance, contracts consumption or
some other contag ioUS disease. the author
tiles could not prevent him returning to
the country, but If he We're not q citizen
OF the United States then he could be
kept out
This question about the contract labor
Ia and the immigration law applying TO
Porto Rico and the Philippines is serious
" annoying the Administration. and I
should not be surprised to see the law
tested IN the lower courts within a few
/ days. Of course the case viii eventually
reach The Supreme Court of the United
States
