The Washington Star publishes a long
communication from a lawyer of that city
criticisng the recent decision of the Su-
preme Court in the Philippine islands case
on the ground that it creates status for
newly-acquired territory not recognized by
the Constitution, or, as the writer puts it,
a sort of initial and preliminary stage in
our national life in which the territory oc-
cupies an underlined and ambiguous position
to which the Supreme Court has applied the
name Of "appurtenant territory" meaning
thereby territory appurtenant to the United
States but not incorporated therein as an in
tegral part thereof. The writer quotes from
Chief Justice Fuller's dissenting opinion, in
which he said: 1.-The contention seems to be
that if an organized and settled province
OF another sovereignty is acquired by the
United States, Congress has power to keep
it like a disembodied shade in an inter
mediate state of ambiguous existence for an
indefinite period The expressions ''dis-
embodied shade" and IAN intermediate
state of ambiguous existence" are more
figurative and poetical than judicial. The
fault of those who criticise the decision of
the court is in falling to recognize the fact
that the power of sovereignty in the gov
eminent includes the right to fix the status
of all newly-acquired territory, and to say
when it shall cease to be appurtenant terri
tory and become an integral part of the
United States. To hold that newly-acquired
territory is subject to the regulation and
control of Congress as long as that body
may see fit to regulate and control it is
not making a "disembodied Shade" of it
nor creating IAN intermediate state of am
biguous existence" 1t is simply recognize
ing the Constitution as a rule of political
conduct instead of a bundle of academic

the needs OF consumers, there was no

putting the most of the plants under one

the output The plan was successful. All
the plants in the combination were pur-

stock and bonds in the American Sugar

the refneries were closed and dismantled-
Probably the property thus abandoned has
been turned to other purposes, but a great
loss was sustained by the purchase and
practical abandonment of so many REIN

was the same that it had been for some
years. but the difference in the duty on
raw and refined sugars was greater then
than now, as that difference has been re-
duced in every subsequent revision of the
tariff. In the present tariff the duty on re-
fined sugar is about one-ffth of a cent
more than on the highest grade of raw
used in refining. Consequently, the protec-
tive tariff could not have been the cause

Or. Gvnsaulus' Endorsement.

~ Thank yu for the prospectus of the Hone School, and
have looked 1t over very carefully. l heartily indorse your
line of study and the different courses presented, and feel
that the opportunity which you open up to students who
tf cannot obtain an education along special lines will be a
blessing and an increasing benefit to all who avail them
selves of your offer. FRANK w. GUNsAOLOs:
"Your new enterprise touching home study is commendable. The
number Of persons DESTROYS of study, and who must study at home, is
RAPIDLY charging. Home study must certainly be more productive II
pursued under the direction Of some systematic organization. Move
ments Of this character are not likely to interfere with, but in the end
will doubtless increase, the attendance upon established institutions.
But whether they do OF not, they are to be sustained, and I assure you
of my best wishes for the success of your undertaking.
"a s. DRAPER, President University of Illinois,
al most heartily indorse your plan for correspondence work under
the direction of President E. Benjamin Andrews. All college men
ought TO indorse 1t. Every such enterprise creates college sentiment
and will do much toward. increasing the attendance in our colleges and
universities in the near future. But there are other reasons One OF
the most important is that you are taking valuable features Of the col
Iege and university to those who cannot attend college. Your name lisa
good one, Home School That is exactly what it is. 1t is bringing the
college and university into the family circle. Thousands Of young men
and women, and many older people, ought to take advantage Of your Of
fer. You are doing in this what a great paper ought to do-help to
stimulate educational sentiment and satisfy the desire Of many for a
better equipment for a life work. certainly wish you great success.

fV/vI has made arrangement 8 which enable students accomplish
ing credtable work by correspondence to go any time in
<+ the future to established residence colleges and receive full
recognition of such credits as Dr. Andrews and his faculty attest.
By this means the work accomplished with the Home School by
correspondence is equivalent to work accomplished in our leading res
idence schools and colleges.
GAS a rule we have declined TO have anything to do with the vari-
Gus correspondence schools which have been organized under different
auspices. But you seem to have eliminated the Objectionable features
and have well guarded the matter of giving credits. Our faculty has
therefore authorized me to say thatit will recognize the credits OF this
school when attested by DR.. Andrews and the instructors in charge OF
the particular subject of course, and admit pupils holding same to ad-
vanced standing in our classes JACOBA CLUTZ,
president Midland College, Atchison, Kansas"
"Under the direction of so accomplished a scholar as DR.. Andrews
there ought to be no question, and scarcely can be any, OF the success
of the school from both an educational and a commercial point Of view,
and have no doubt of the great value of the work done by such schools
for thousands who arr unable to secure the systematic instruction OF
the classroom, nor have l any doubt that for some minds the result of
this independent, personal work, done under the impulse OF their own
sense of need, is far more valuable than they could secure under the e.
strictions Of the ordinary school system.
