CITIZENSHIP LAW,
TREATISE SUBJECT
Mistaken impression OF
New Statute Calls Forth
New Book.

To correct the erroneous impression
gained by hundreds OF thousands OF
American citizens residing abroad, that
the new citizenship law actually COM
pels their annual registration with
American consulates in order to retain
their citizenship. and to explain the new
citizenship and naturalization rulings in
general for the benefit OF these, and of
American officials abroad and lawyers
Interested in such cases, a treatise on
the American laws Of naturalization
making a sort of semi-official document,
has been prepared by Frederick Van
Dyne, who was for several years as
slstant solicitor Of the State Department,
and at present American consul TO
Kingston. Jamaica
Recent sweeping and radical changes
made by Congress in the laws relating
TO naturalization and citizenship have
given great value TO such a treause' IN
the opinion Of Government ornclalS IN
terested. Not only is II OF interest TO
the State Department but 10 the De-
partmenLs OF Justice and Commerce and
Labor as well, in connection with all
questions arising about Immigration ana
American citizens residing abroad
The volume Is especially designed 10
meet the needs Of judges and clerks Of
courts having Jurisdiction In naturaliZa-
ton cases, both in America and abroad,
Of Government attorneys appearing in
such cases, and Of diplomatic and con-
sular officers, as we'll as OF all officials
having 10 do with questions relating TO
citizenship and naturalization.
To President Roosevelt. Consul Van
Dyne practically gives credit for the re-
formation of naturalization laws which
had become ill adapted to the modern
conditions. especially IN view Of the in
fiux OF more than a million OF foreigners
each year.
The new citizenship regulations. which
went into effect July 1, are still being
misConstrued everywhere, and a great
mass of correspondence has made its
way into the State Department IN con-
| sequence.

70 Chaplain Hoes. in Washington, on
the strength Of which Chaplain Hoes
sent a letter to Berham advising him
that Jones was all right, and sent his
own check 70 Berham. plus protest fees
TO make good the check which had been
Cashed for Chaplain Jones. Jones then
gave Chaplain Hoes his check for the
one which Hoes had sent TO Berham
Jones promised to telegraph his brother
chaplain when TO use the check which
he had given him, but Chaplain Hoes
kept the check for two months, and
heard nothing from Jones. He then de-
posted the check for collection It. too

Georgia Representative
Defines Powers of the
Government.
Declares Corporations
Should Seek Friend
ship Instead of
Fight.

Representing the Southern view Of
the current controversy on railroad mat
ters between the State and Federal gov
sCnments, James n. GTiggs, Represen-
tive in Congress from the Second dis
tIct Of Georgia, chairman Of the DEM
cratic Congressional committee. has
prepared a concise discussion of the
subject
Judge Griggs has been in Congress
since 1897, and Is one Of the leaders OF
the minority Of the House Of Represen-
tatives. He was on the bench for a
Ynumber OF years before coming TO Con-
gress and is considered one Of the
4 aOlest lawyers in that body. He has
twice been called on by his colleagues
in the House 70 serve as chairman Of
the Democratic Congressional commit
tee, and each time, In the face Of stren-
uous opposition by the Republican com
Tnittee and Unforeseen occurrences that
initiated against Democratic success
he has been instrumental in whiting
down the Republican majority in tha
House.
II Is believed that ne will be assigned
10 the greatest committee in the House
at the beginning OF the SIxJietn Con-
Eress CWays and Means). where he will
have the fullest opportunity 70 display
his ability as a legislator.

Regret Railroads Fight.

With many others, I regret that the
railroads are foolishly fighting State
control The place for railroads to make
friends is within the several States
through which they run: they are not
Going this by blindly fighting every
State regulation lowering fares and
freight rates. The fact is that under
their present proceedings thcy are en-
deavoTing to destroy the States them
selves, because whenever any corpora-
tion can absolve itself from alIegiance

ration in an adjoining State, the States
IS such will have been obliterated-
they viii no longer be States. with
sovereign powers. but mere subdivi-
sions Ike the French departments or
our counties for convenience OF gov
eminent.
Our Government must, II It is to long
survive. continue in It's dual capacity-it
must move along present lines.
Railroads and Federal judges hungry
for power must not be permitted to
wipe them from the map
If the Hepburn bill authorizes this
then the people will rue the day IL be-
came law. But no such construction
will ever be placed on it by our Su-
The Union and the States will continue
to walk down the ages hand in hand
the one exercising its granted powers
and the other their reserved powers,
in complete harmony
The railroads and other corporations
must know and recognize this.

States Created United States.

The United States mas never granted
any rights 10 the states The States in
convention created the United States,
and uuequivocally reserved TO them
selves all rights not granted In the Con-
Etitution TO their creature. the United
States.
OF course. the United States courts are
supreme within their jurisdiction, but
outside OF their Jurisdiction they are an
unnecessary, useless. and harmful aP-
panagc OF government
II these courts would be supreme they
must be mindful OF their jurisdictional
lines. II the fact that railroads run
from one State 10 another confers juris-
diction on United States courts as to
matters strictly concerning the sections
OF railroads entirely within the States
then one man who shoots another across
the line between North Carolina and
Virginia must be tried by a United
States court, and not by the State with
In which the crime was committed
The Hepburn bill Is a most excellent
law, ana there was no Intention on the

LAWN FETE THIS EVENING
AT DOLLY MADISON HOUSE

A lawn fete will be given on the
grounds OF the Dolly Madison House "

The Washington times., 1907-08-09
BY JAMES M. GRIGGS.

There is no more reason for Federal
Interference in the regulation OF rail
roads by the States now than during
the life of the first Interstate commerce
law.
The Hepburn law does not anywhere
disregard the rights of the States, but
on the other hand carefully refraius
from doing so.
Why a United States judge snould feel
empowered by this law TO enter INTO all
the States Of the Union and nulify reg
ulations made solely to cover and con
troll transportation within the states Is
beyond the ken OF those who believe IN
the Constitution. The reason for this
can be found only in the evident desire
and intention of the judges Of United
States courts TO extend their juisdiC-
ton TO the farthest limit possible. Even
the administration, admittedly not
State rights one, yielded on this point in
the North Carolina contest, and, IN my
opinion, IL will yield completely when
the Supreme Court gets through with
the cases about 70 come before Il.
