BACK TO THE W0RKH0UsE.,
Out for One Day-Then Back Again
for q Year.

When Wesley Hill left occoquan
most of his friends thought
he would spend the summer in Wash
ington. But Wesley fooled them all.
He left again today for another stay
at the Districts workhouse.
It is an enforced stay, presented to
him in the United States branch of
the Police Court today by Judge
and will keep him there for
nearly a year, at least. and possibly
for more than a year.
For striking Josephine Huffman,
Wesley is to stay at Occoquan for
eleven months. He has the alterna-
tive of paying s25 or staying three
longer for using force in an
argument with Isaiah Johnson

been avoided. it is argued IL the Porto
Ricans had been made citizens of the
United States when they were first
taken over, a status for which they
were then clamoring. Congress,

That assertion rang true. In all this

men came and went. Each was signed
by a military authority This is the

to speed up and turn out the greatest
output possible:
'It is his duty to be at work every

"Workmen of military age must be
registered with the military authorities.
Then, If they do not work in the fac

Shells in Fish Can Factory.
We were used to shells by this time,
SO that when we visited a factory in
Lubbock where fish cans are made we
began to look about knowingly. We
found the factory running to full ca

the place. BY and by we came to the

Memorials Sent to President.

The house of delegates of Porto Rico
has repeatedly sent memorials to the
President and to Congress requesting
that the Porto Rico Regiment be COM
pleted, and that the officers thereof be
transferred to the lineal rank The
request was based on the physical and
moral conditions of the regiment, the
skill of the men (they having a ma
tional reputation as crack shots) and
their discipline. The lieutenant colo
mel and ajors of the regiment already
belong, by law, to the regular army,
but the other officers have not that
standing. That applies to eleven cap
tains natives of the United States, and
twenty lieutenants, who are natives.
The regiment was organized in 1899.
when things were unsettled after the
Spanish-American war, coming into ex-
istence March 10 Of that year as a
battalion of volunteer infantry, and in
February of 1900 a second battalion
was organized. The name then adopted
was THE Porto Rico Regiment, United
States Volunteer Infantry" They were
mustered out the last day of June, 1901,
and the following day reorganized and
we're mustered in again under the name
of THE Porto Rico Provisional Regi-
ment of Infantry" Since then they
have been mustered out and in twice,
until by the act of May 81, 1908, they
are now known as the Porto Rico
Regiment of Infantry of the United
States Army"

Case of Luis R. Esteves Set
tied Regardless of Political
Status of Island.
BRINGS UP QUESTION
OF CITIZENSHIP RIGHTS
Sixteen Years Have Passed Since Is
landers First Asked. Without
Success, for Recognition.

All doubt as to whether "a citizen of
Porto Rico legally can be commits
stoned in the United States Army is
settled by the fact that Luis r. Esteves,
a native of Porto Rico. who was grad
uated in the class Of 1915 at the United
States Military Academy, has been
commissioned as a second lieutenant In
tho army and assigned to the infantry
arm of the service. Regardless OF the
political status Of Porto Rico in rela-
ton to tho government of the United
States, Lieut.. Esteves received the
same official consideration accorded to
all the native-born members of the
graduating class.
His case has served to revive consid-
Grafton Of the mooted questions of the
standing Of the Porto .Rican regiment
of infantry and the citizenship of ma
tives of that island possession of the
United States. 1t has been sixteen
years since the close of the Spanish
American war, and Porto Rico still
stands as an adopted child whose rights
and privileges must not be considered
equal to her more fortunate half-sis-
tiers, the states. That is particularly
true of the treatment of the Porto Rico
Regiment,

Debated for Many Years.

For the last five or six years Con-
gress has debated the problem Of
whether these soldiers of the United
States shall be given the status of
their brothers in the states, to take
rank on the lineal list. No later than
last February the following proviso
was passed in the House:
Provided, that the permanent cap
tains of the Porto Rico Regiment Of
Infantry shall be recommissioned as
captains of infantry of the United
States Army, to take rank on the lineal
Hst of officers of infantry. Immediately
after the junior officers of the same
grade, whose total commissioned serv-
ice equals or exceeds theirs"
That seemed fair proposition on the
surface, but it developed that all the
captains of the regiment were Ameri-
can officers, and that the provision was
a discrimination against the Porto
Rican officers. The clause was stricken
out in the Senate, but was again re-
stored in the conference committee.
That is only one Of the remedies that
year to try and straighten out the
solution. To raise the regiment to the
standing of the regular army it would
require the addition Of another bat
talon, there being only two in the
regiment now. and the cost of such
action was estimated at $242,482. The
War Department held that it was not
justified in recommending that the
Porto Rican Regiment be increased as
desired"
