kThe United States "Are."
i
- IThe old controversy as to whether
the United States tlis" or "are" has
sprung up again.
Recently the London Times said:
"The United States are at war with
Spain," whereupon the Cleveland
Leader remaks : : j
"There it is attain ! ' Thn Rflm

can institutions. United States .in

', TnstfiaH nf chnnincr "Jfrnnrnnno fi
American institutions" this in-
stance the London Times is exactly
VI
right and the Cleveland Leader dead
wrong. The ignorance of American
institutions is on our side of the wa-
ter this time. If the editor of the
Leader will take the trouble to refer
to the constitution of the United
States, section three, article three, he
will find the declaration that Vtrea-
son against the United State shall
consist only in. levying wa against
them, or in adhering to their'ene
mies." " .
The supreme court in its de
cisions habitually uses the United
States as a plural.
