by a geologist and mining expert Of
worldwide reputation. Professor Ben
iamin Silliman, who spent several
months there, then being connected
with the United States surveying corps,
and in his official report says:
Here are countless millions OF tons
Of rich gold quartz reduced by the

Rio Grande for over forty miles is q

derived from the wearing away OF the
gravel banks has been accumulatlng
for countless ages, and now lies ready
for extraction by the most approved
methods OF river mining The thick

PROTECTION FOR FISH.
Recommendations Made by North
American Fish and Game
Association.

MONTREAL, Feb. 1.-The North
American Fish and Game Association
has decided to recommend that in wat
ers which are partially in Canada and
partially in the United States the open
season for black bass shall be from
July l to January l, and that net fish
ing shall be entirely forbidden in Lake
Champlain, the Straits of New York
and Vermont and the province Of Que
bee.
A number of other committee recon-
mendations looking to better protection
of game was adopted.
A resolution was adopted with a view
to making the Lacey bill, Of the Unit
ed States, international instead Of as
at present interstate, and Canadian and
the United States legislators will be
urged in that direction. It was decided
to hold the next annual gathering in
Vermont, the selection Of the place be-

that the last trace she has obtained

the bank with the 100000 in cash and

of whether the Constitution should or
should not extend to them had been def
nitely settled.
Government of Acquired Territory,
II it be once conceded that we are at lib
erty to acquire foreign territory, a pre-
sumption arises that our power with re-
spect to such territory is the same power
which other nations have been accustomed
to exercise with respect to territory ac-
quired by them. II in limiting the power
which Congress was to exercise in the
United States it was also intended to limit
1t with regard to such territories as the
people Of the United. States should there
after acquire, such limitations should have
been expressed
Instead of that, we find the Constitution
speaking only to states, except in the ter
ritorial clause, which is absolute in its
terms, and suggestive of limitations upon
the power of Congress in dealing with
them. The states could only delegate to
Congress such powers as they themselves
possessed And as they had no power to
acquire new territory they had none to del
egate in that connection. The logical Infer
ence from this is that If Congress had
power to acquire new territory, which is
conceded, that power was never hammered
by the constitution nal provisions,
If, upon the other hand. we admit that
the territorial clause of the Constitution
was not intended to be restricted to such
territory as the United States then pos
sessed there is nothing in the Constitution
to indicate that the power Of Congress in
the dealing with 1t was intended to be re-
stricted by any of the other provisions
The Elk Proprio VigOre Theory.
There is a provision that new states may
be admitted by the Congress into this
Union. These words. of course, carry the
Constitution with them. but nothing is said
regarding the acquisition Of new territories
or the extension of the Constitution over
them. The great liberality Of Congress- In
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1901-05-28

legislating the Constitution into all our
contiguous territories has undoubted fos-
tered the impression that 1t went there by
It's own force: But there is nothing in the
Constitution itself, and little in the inter-
probation put upon 1t, to confirm that i'm
preston.
There Is not even an analogy to the pro-
visions OF an ordinary mortgage for its at
tachment to after acquired property, with
out which 1t covers only property existing
at the date Of the mortgage. In short.
there Is absolute silence upon the subject.
The executive and legislative departments
Of the government have for more than
century Interpreted this silence as pre-
Guiding the idea that the Constitution at
tached as soon as acquired, and unless
such Interpretation be manifestly contrary
to the letter or spirit of the Constitution It
should be followed by the judicial depart
ment.
Patriotic and intelligent men may differ
widely as to the desirableness OF this or
that acquisition, but this is solely a polit-
1cal question. We can only consider this
aspect of the case SO far as to say that no
construction of the Constitution should be
adopted which would prevent Congress
from considering each case upon it's merits
unless the language of the instrument inn
peratively remanded it. A false step at
this time might be fatal to the development
OF what Chief Justice Marshall called the
American empire.
Choice in some cases, the natural gravi-
tation of small bodies toward large ones in
Others the result of a successful war in
still others, may bring about conditions
which will render the annexation of dis
tant possessions desirable If those possess
sions are inhabited by alien races differing
In religion, customs. laws methods Of tax
alton and modes of thought. the admins
trat1on of government and justice, accord
ing to Anglo-SaXon PRINCIPLES, may for a
time be impossible, and the question. at
onde arlsas whether large concessions
ought not to be made for time, that ulti-
mately our own theories may be carried
out and the blessings of free government
under the Constitution extended to them
we decline to hold that there is anything
In the Constitution to prevent such action.
Porto Rico a Territory of the United
States.
We are therefore Of the opinion that the
Island Of Porto Rico is a territory appurte-
nant and belonging to the United States,
but not part of the United States within
the revenue clause of the Constitution;
that the Foraker act Is constitutional so
far as 1t imposes duties on imports from
such islands, and that the plaintiff cannot
recover back the duties exacted in this
case. The judgment Of the circuit court is
therefore affirmed.
