To Deport an Anarchist.

By order of Secretary Cortelyou, the
immigration authorities at New York,
acting under the new ~anti-anarchist
law. caused the arrest of John Turner,
a labor leader just arrived from Eng
land. while he was in the act of ad-
dressing an audience, with the object
of causing his immediate deportation
as an anarchist. Turner was held
without bail, but his friends secured a
writ Of habeas corpus in order to test
the validity of the governments act
ion. Hugh Pentecost, the liberal
preacher, acting as Turner's counsel,
made the point that Turner did not
come under the new law, because,
while he favored the principles of an
archy, he did not advocate the over
throw of government or law by force
or violence or the assassination OF pub
lie officials. Turner is the organizer
of the Retail Clerks union.
