Summary

Description
English: An editorial about the Wong Kim Ark ruling by the United States Supreme Court, published in the San Francisco Chronicle on March 30, 1898 (two days after the decision). The editorial expresses concern that the court decision could allow not only ethnic Chinese, but also ethnic Japanese and American Indians to become citizens, and possibly eventually even receive the right to vote. It ends with a suggestion that it may become necessary to amend the U.S. Constitution and "definitely limit citizenship to whites and blacks."
