Washington, Jan. 1.-THE federal
hpreme Court yesterday heard Soloc-
br General Richards and Attorney
3eneral Grlggs in lengthy arguments
the position taken by the
government in the Porto Rican cases.
n In answer to question by Justice
White as to the meaning of the words
|the territories" as used by Chief JUS
1ce Marshall in the Loughborough
ase, Solicitor General Richards said
he power of Cogress over territory
Eoes not cease when 1t Is organized and
brought under the United States, but
lhat he did recognize that there is
distinction in the control under the
liffering circumstances.
The solicitor general then discussed
Ii some length the different uses OF
Me words United States" The first
Sc defined was that on which sover-
.lgnty Is expressed and in that sense,
| e said, the words refer to the area
occupied by the people who participant
in the functions of government.
mother use was that in the legislative
ense, in which sense the words were
sed to indicate the states and terri
bries as regarded by Congress for leg
blative purposes. Then there was an
International sense in which the words
build be used. In that sense the
hrase indicates, he said, all territory
pming under the dominion of the I'm
led SAtes, whether organized or not.
Eut hle he recognized sovereignty
yer unorganZed territory. he said 1t
i'd not become n part of the Union
br legislative purposes until 1t Is Or
anized.
Discussing the constitutional provi-
on of uniformity in the matter of tax
tion. Mr.. Richards said that provision
as inserted to remedy the divers and
)nficting claims of the various states
)mprising the Union in the matter of
ie revenues and was never meant to
,ply to condition like that which
DIV confronts the country in connec-
IN with its insular possessions.
When Mr.. Richards concluded. At
Irney General Griggs addressed the
,urt. He said his remarks were in
nded to be supplemental to those
ibmitted in the cases involving Ques-
,ns which have heretofore been ar
led.
Taking up the question of taxes. the
torney general contended that the
institution does not provide for abso-
te uniformity of duties under all cir
instances and that the uniformity
ause of the constitution refers to
ates and not to the territories. In
pport of this latter point he said:
r'rhe states. by the compact of sub
ission to the government, organized
lder the constitution. were to stand
n perfect equality with each other.
he Congress was forbidden to eNer-
,e any discrimination between the
htes or their several ports.

The choice of Judge Burnham. which

the fierccst political fight in the his
tory of New Hampshire. Senator
Chandler was opposed by men in his
party who objected to his pro-silver
views. his criticism at times of the ad-
ministraton. and his ideas on differ
ent measures. and in addition. he was
opposed by those who thought he had
been senator long enough. Another
great factor in the contest. and which
has figured in other political fights
was the opposition of the railroad in

JAPAN WILL PRO
TECT LABORERS

Butte, Mont, Jan. 1O-E. Nichkara
of the Japanesc consulate mt Nnncou-
YER has been sent to Montana by his
government to Investigate the Japan
ese labor troubles. The labor unions
have been making vigorous fight on
the japanese laborers and on several
occasions gang of Japanese have been
robbed and assaulted. He said 1t Is
the intention of the japanese govern
ment to protect its people in this coun-
try, though no more laborcrs would
be allowed to come to the United
States.
"The japanese government, always
friendly to the United States, decided
that its labOrers were not wanted in
America, and consequently since Au-
gust 90 1900, no Japanese laborers
have been allowed to come to the Unit
ed States" said the official Mr..
Nlckhara also says his government
has become much concerned about its
women in this country and the lives

Already Rushing to Alaska.

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 1.-THE Alaska
movement is already under way. Its
volume is surprising even the trans
portation managers. 1t is believed
here that the record for this month
will be greater than for any previous
January.
Three vessels, the Excelsior, Cottage
City and Ruth, sailed yesterday for
the North, with an aggregate OF 10
passengers and 800 tons of freight.
The majority of the passengers are
bound for the mining districts of
Nome, Chestochena. KlOndiic, Porcu-
pino and the different quartz camps
of southern Alaska. The Excelsior
had 100 passengers, sixty of whom
were bound for the rich Chcstochenn
diggings by way Of Naldes. The Nome
contingent numbers ten, some of whom
will go via Katmai. the others by Ill
anna bay. Many of the Cottage City's
passengers are headed for the Klon-
dixie and other British and American
Yukon districts.
The Ruth took no passengers but
had full cargo of freight, including
n crate of skunks intended as the
nucleus of n polecat farm to be cs-
tablishcd on Skakon island in south
eastern Alaska.

HE CONSTITUTION AND THE
10 NEWLY ACQUIRED COLONIES

pact was made. The full power of taN-
alton was conferred on Congress along
with the power to govern them; ana III
the exercise of the power Congress pos
sesses unrestricted discretion both aS
to the subjects of taxation and the
places wehere 1t shall be levied and
those where it shall not be levied.
LAS between the different territories.
there is no compact in favor of uni
formity. Such uniformity is not essen
tial for the protection of the states rs
between each other, because the terri
tories are the common property of all
of the states and whatever is done as
to territorial taxation is done by the
authority of the states and for their
equal benefit.
Congress ought TO possess, anu we
contend does possess, the power to vary
its system of taxation according to the
location, condition and circumstances
of the different territories. Otherwise
not only will the government bc EN-
barrassed and hampercd. but actual in
justice will be done to some sections
of our possessions"
The power to govern territories, Mr..
Griggs said. is expressly conferred by
the constitution. This power was Civ
en- without limitation and there was no
reservation of power in the people of
the territories, though there is in the
people of the states.
"On the subject of the government of
the territory of the United States. the
states reserved nothing; they granted
| the power to make all needful rules
and regulations respecting it."
Referring to the acquisition of Porto
| Rico and the Philippines, Mr.. Griggs
said:
"The inhabitants of the islands are
not joint partners with the states in
| the transaction.
"Thc islands are territory belonging
| to the United States, not part of the
| United States. The islands We're the
things acquired by the treaty; the
! United States was the party who ac-
Quired them and to whom they belong.
The owner and the thing owned are
not the same"
Upon the point that laws of Congress
do not extend in operation to territory.
Mr.. Griggs said that many instances
| of legislation show that Congress has
always considered something more
| than the term United States" to he
necessary when it designed n statute
to extend to territory.
The attorney general cited authority
to show that internal revenue laws
| have not been universal in application
! in the history of the country and con
cluded that "while Congress has pro-
vided throughout the United States
and territories for the enumeration up
| on which direct taxes have been ap-
pOrtioned, 1t never seems to have been
| supposed that such taxes must be lev
| led beyond the states or appOrtionGl
to the territories unless Congress saw
| fit so to provide"

The National holiday will be utilized for the formal
laying OF the of the Cuero cotton mill It
is intended that the shall be of an Impress

to assist in making the occasion memorable one The
railroads. win run excursion trains and the managers
of the celebration confidently look for as many as
1000 people in Cuero on the glorious Fourth"
1t a happy well as a practical thought to
combine in this way, the celebration of the Inaugural
ton Of great industrial enterprise with the popular
festivities Of the National holiday larger crowd will
be than would have otherwise gathered posi-
bly, either for the celebration of the ourth alone or
the laying of the stone at any other time The
occasion will therefore better advertise and popuarze
the cotton mill movement
What want in Texas now is a greater popular
agitation of industrial enterprises The papers have
talked the industrial movement for years Intelligent
citizens have admitted the necessity Tor a greater num-
Der of industrial plants in all parts of the State but
the movement among the people as a whole, has even
yet to be started There is yet lacking in Texas that

The Post trusts that the greatest expectations" may
be fully realized and that other Texas communities
will note the example and take measures to arouse
local popular interest in striking way in local en-
terprises.
