Senate Debate on Porto Rico and Lincoln Aphorisms
A Senate session discussed the Porto Rico tariff bill and the constitutional reach over acquired territories. Senator Morgan argued the treaty of Paris binds the U S to govern Cuba Porto Rico and the Philippines, and that Port Rico’s inhabitants are U S citizens, urging unified federal laws and extended national authority. The debate touched on Jefferson Lincoln sayings, and Pettigrew’s request to print a collection of political axioms was withdrawn. The Senate adjourned after executive session.
