gotten Expansionlsts contracted an anti
eXpansionists blew up an little childher
was born into tn wurrld an grew to
manhood an niver heerd iv Porther Ricky
except whin some wan got a job there.
I'd about made up me mind to thry an
put tn thing out Nv me thoughts an go
back to wurruk whin l wake up wan
mornin' an see be tn pa-aper that tn
Supreme Coort had warned tn constitu
ton to lave tn flag alone an tind to it's
own business.
That's what tn pa-aper says but I've
Tread over tn decision an ! don't see
anything ~ tn kind there. They'se not
a wurrud about tn flag an not enough
to tire We about tn constitution. IT'S
a matther iv Unions. HInnissy, that tn
Supreme Coort has been settin' on fr
this gineration-a cargo Nv Unions stint
firm Porther Ricky to some Eyetalian
in Phllydelphy. Tn decision was r-read
be Brown j., him bein' tn las justice
to make up his min an ex-officio, as Ho-
gan says, tn first to speak, afther a
crooel an bitther contest. Says Brown j.:
TIL question here Is wan Nv such gr-reat
importance that we've been sthrugglin'
over it iver since ye see us las an ony
come TO a decision CFuller. c. j., Gray, j.,
Harlan j., Shiras j., McKenna j.. White
j., Brewer j., an Peckham j., dissentin
firm me an each otheD because Nv tn
hot weather comm on. Wash'nton is a
dhreadful place in summer (FuMer c. j.
dissentn') The whole fabric iv our gov
eminent is threatened, tn lives Nv our peo-
pie an tn progress iv civilization put to
tn bad Men ARE excited. But why?
We ar-re not Harlam j.. I am Fuller c.
j. dissentin' but not fr TIL same reason0
This thing must be settled wan way or
III other undher that dear OF constitution
be varchue iv which we are here an We
ARE there an Congress is out West
practicin' law. Now what does the con-
stitution say? Wen look 1t up thoroughly
whin we get through this case 9Th rest
Nv tn coort dissentin'.) In tn manetime
we must be governed be tn ordinances Nv
tn Khan Nv Beloochistan, tn laws Nv
Hinnery, tn Eighth. tn opinyon iv JUS
tce Nv tn Peace Oscar Larson in tn
case iv tn township iv Red Wing varsus
Petersen, an the Dhred Scott decision.
What do they say about limons? Nav
thin at all. Again we take tn Dhred
Scott decision. This is one Nv tn worst
l liver r-read. If l cuddent write a better
wan with blindhers on, ia leap off tn
bench. This horrible fiuke Nv a decision
throws a gr-reat, an almost bllndin light
on tn case. l will turn il off. (McKenna
j. concurs but thinks 1t ought to be
blowed out) But where was 1? l must
put on me specs. Oh, about tn Unions.
Well, tn decision Nv tn coort 9TH others
dissentlnO is as follows: First, that tn
DISTRICT Nv Columbya is a state: second,
that it is not; third, that New York is a
state; fourth, that II is a crown colony;
fifth, that all states ARE states an all
| territories ARE territories in tn eyes Nv
other powers, but Gawd knows what they
ARE at home. Ia tn case Nv Hogan var
sus Mullins, tn decision is he must paper
