Here is something renl funn If it has any moral it probably is that an ounce of con'mon sense is worth cr KFPT "8 1900 canS wns nindc in the political re lattonsmp of vUcsc people. Ami now tho Porto Rican and the Filipino stand in the same relation to Amer ican citizenship as the New Mexican, Alaskan or native of Arizona. Tri dents of these territories are admitted i to citizenship in the states, when they comply with the residence re quirements of the stites, without forswearing allegiance to anybody or anything. Nor does "Mr. Hanna" crjet booths in these territories, any more than he will in our new pos- right to ARE QNfG f 1,0 sessions, to cve them 'the library has its habitation in the brain express their choice for president," of n justice of the snpreme court. j 'or no resident of any American A Porto Ilican who is studying ' territory has such right or ever had law at Washington applied the other "Ince our Qrat territorial acquisition day at Ibc clerk's olliee of the su- j more than six years ago. premc court of the District of Co lumbia for "first papers." That is, he expressed his desire to make a declaration of intent to become an American citizen. His attorney in sisted that the proceeding was un necessary and meaningless. Under, tho treaty of Paris Porto Eico was ceded to the United States and made a territory of this government, and the attorney contended that Castro was a citizen cf the United States by virtue of that treaty and transfer of sovereignty. The clerk could not , unravel the knot and the question was submitted to Judge Bradley, j His honor was rather perplexed for 1 s while, but be concluded that the I 8alest way out of the dilemma was for the applicant to take oath and forswear allegiance to Porto Rico. This was singular enuough. Is, then, Porto Rico a nation, a sovereign power to which- allegiance is due? No, she is a territory of the United States. Does not a man who ic nounces allegiance to Porto Rico also renounce allegiance to the United States? This difficulty was urged upon Judge Bradley, and he finally cut the Gordian .knot by instructing Castro to forswear allegiance Spain. The second solution was by no means an improvement on the first.

Judge Iiradle3-,s suggestion was harmless, but devoid ot all meaning. In-Baltimore, whore the registra tion officials had not the advantage of the advice of supreme court, but had in lieu there of a supply of simple, common souse, the question was solved in a jiffey. Pive Porto Ricans applied there last Monday for registration, The regis tration oflicer promptly entered their names and wrote opposite each: "Naturalized by Annexation." All that was demanded of the Porto Kicans was proof that they had com piled with the residence clause of the election laws of the state of Maryland. Our liryanite contemporaries see all manner of frightful things in this simple, common-sense decision. And the one at home here seems, as usual, worse scared than any of them and asks in wild astonishment and terror: "Has the simple proclamation of the president, unauthorized by con gre3s, admitted to citizenship 9,000,-1 000 of people, whom the imperialist j nlfllm nrn Itnnlliniia innnnnliln r P Anlf I ' 1 I uaaar.hr arfc-rtTi rwiyt ijflfi,t.viirt,' government?
