In the Delima case Justice Brown

what is the character of the legislation de-
handed for this purpose? Will an act ap.
proprating money for its purchase be suf-
ticient? Apparently not Will an act

benefit of its government he sufficient?
Apparently not. Will acts making appro-
priationS for it's postal service. for the
establishment of lighthouses. for the main
tenance of quarantine stations for erect

an act establishing complete local gov

right to collect duties upon commerce be
adequate for that purpose? None of these,
nor all together will be sufficient, if the

are unable to acquiesce in this assumption
that Il territory may he Mt the same time

We are therefore. of opinion that at the

Solicitor General Richards interpreted
ton Of the Decisions.
Washington, May 2S.-Solicitor Gen
eral Richards of the department of
justice, who had charge of the insular
cases before the supreme court, made
the following statement containing
his Interpretation of the decisions of
the court:
"The important question involved in
these cases was whether the cession
of territory contained in the treaty of
Paris made Porto Rico and the Philip
pines integral part of the United
States within the meaning of that pro
vision of the constitution requiring
all duties, imposts and excuses to be
uniform throughout the United States
The court held that the cession simply
made Porto Rico and the Philippines
domestic territory of the United States.
subject to the full control of congress.
which control could be exercised with
out reference to those limitations.
This limitation, the court held, was
intended to apply to the states of the
union and does not apply to acquired
territory unless by treaty and by sub
sequent act of congress it is incorpo-
rated within and becomes an integral
part of the United States. The de-
cisions are consequently a victory for
the government. They sustain to the
fullest extent the so-called insular
policy of the administration. The gov
eminent now has the sanction of the
supreme court for governing these
islands as their needs require. The
court holds that the constitution did
not of it's own force at once apply to
those coded territories.''
