admitted, but none of which have fur
nished US with a carefully considered
decision s...s ..... ~. -
The early lawmakers of Congress
and those of 1873 may have been in
error as to the chronological divisions
of the human race, but their contem-
porary works of general reference bear
out the unobstructed current of deci.
sions that white persons" did not
and does not contemplate the Japa'
nese. There is truth in DR.. VIM. FL
hot Grifis' view that: ....
There is no necessary distinction
between the Oriental and Occidental,
the brown and the white man. That
the yellow brain and the Japanese
heart are ultimately different from
those OF Yankee or the Briton is the
notion of tradition, not the fact OF
science" .s.-
But the question is not the worth
of the Japanese, their moral and intel.
lectual qualifications, but whether Con
gress had them in mind in its provi-
sion for the naturalization of free
white persons. 80
And Captain F. Brinkly, called by
Dr. Griffis one of the English scholars
of the Meiii era who have made obso-
lete most of the old European learn
ing about Japan; Tylor, the eminent
authority on ethnology (Anthropology,
pages So, 96-99, and the Encyclopedia
Britannica, class the Japanese as of
the Mongolia or yellow r6ce), I'D,

"As lately as 1906, Congress went
over the whole law, and yet in view Of
the we'll known rulings of the publish
ed decisions, this particular section o.
the law was left Just as IL was. That
is very persuasive reason for the
conclusion that Congress acquiesced
In, and adopted the Interpretation
which the courts had put upon their
own work.
"The remedy lies with Congress,
and our alien friends should through
their friends, or directly, seek that
branch Of the government, and If they
show such devotion to the United
States and Its constitution as this pc
titioner has shown in his twenty years
Of complete surrender TO our customs
and institutions, his petition should
not fall on deaf ears"

Decision on FiIipinos.

Judge Clemcls decision holding
that Filipinos are entitled to American
citizenship is, in full, as follows:
In the case of Mr. Soils, the dis
trict attorney opposes the petition in
reliance upon the decision of District
Judge Thompson in the case of In re
Alverto, 19S Fed. $50. But the error
of that decision is apparent on its
face; for, noting that prior to the Nat
uralization Act of 1906 citizens OF the
Philippine islands or of Porto Rico.
were not capable of becoming
naturalized citizens for two reasons:
First, the naturalization laws of the
United States applied only to aliens,
which they we're not; and, second,
they required remuneration of for
mer allegiance. the learned Judge
says the effect of section 80 OF the
act was to make applicable to citizens
of the Philippine islands and Porto
Rico those provisions which had
heretofore applied only to aliens
Must Apply to All.
And, he continues, If the limita-
tions of section 2169 apply to one pro-
vision of the naturalization laws, they
must apply to all and, consequently,
to section 80 or the act of 1906 and
this view disregards wholly the pro-
vision of section 80 that all applicable
provisions of the naturalization laws
&. shall apply 70 and be held to au-
thorize the admission TO citizenship
of all persons not citizens who owe
permanent allegiance to the United
States, and who may become residents
of any state or recognized territory OF
the United States and the further pro-
vision of the same section and con-
text, that residence within the juris-
diction Of the United States, owing
such permanent allegiance, shall be
regarded as residence within the
United States within the meaning of
the five years residence clause of the
naturalization law"
And the unsoundness of the Al
yerto decision mag be shown by the
simple question. If the special provi-
sions of section 80 do not apply to
those Filipinos end Porto Ricans ow-
ing permanent allegiance TO the Unit
ed States, then to whom do they APP
ply? The Alverto decision is not at
all convincing.

WILLARD HAS A
BETTER RECORD
BY Pac. and IntI News Service.


NEW YORK. March 23.-The ring
records Of Jess Willard and Frank
Moran, show that Wizards work has
been better than that OF Moran's
against the same foes.
Willard knocked out Jack Johnson
in the 26th round in the Havana fight.
Moran got a chance at johnson nearly
a year earlier, when the negro hadn't
skidded SO far, and Johnson won a
20-round decision.
1t took Willard just n part of the
first round to knockout Sailor White
In 1912. The best Moran could do was
to shade the sailor in a Ground SCRAP
in Philadelphia year later
Gunboat Smith has beaten both men.
He secured the decision over Moran
in 20 rounds in Frisco in 1912 and a
few months later beat Jess Willard in
20 rounds in the same town.
Both men fought 10 round no de.
cision bouts with Luther McCarty in
New York. McCarty was given the
popular decisions over Willard, but
the concensus of opinion was IL draw
In his battle with Moran.
Here are the ring records OF the
men who meet in New York Saturday
night:
