Judge Parker j. at least out
spoken In his opposition to the old
veterans when he proposes to
scsciLd President Rooscyrlt's order
fixing the npc limit Tor pensions.
and substituting therefor u special
recommendation 10 Congress. In
Ahis the Judge would seem to bc
rather inconsistent. lnnsmuch ~
the order was based upon con-
Gressi onal authority, and had been
acted upon by two previous Pres
idents-Clcyciand and Mckinley
the only difference being that the
former hxod the limit Mt nm age
practically impossible and the
latter divided II into minimum and
ma ximum period, possibly n little
too far apart. Roosevelt took the
bull by the horns, and, without
doing violence io the law, fixed the
period ut an age which would nc
complish the greatest good to the
old veterans who stood 50 much In
need OF the favors they had so
nobiy earned. Judge Parker may
be, and possibly II, the friend OF
the old soldier, but his proposed
action smacks very much OF a lack
Of knowledge Of their needs, and
therefore It II hardly probable that
any great number OF the old fellows
Will cast their ballots for him.

Quarantine Still in Force.

Monterey, Mexico, Special.-Notwith-
standing the quarantine recently estab-
lished by the State of Texas against all
Mexican points has been lifted, it is
still in force against Monterey. This
is due. to the fact that the Texas au-
thorities had received word to the eff
feet that case of yellow fever existed
at Tampico, and they refused to lift
the embargo against Monterey unless a
quarantine should be put on against
1Tampico Gen. Reyes, upon inquiry,
states there is no yellow fever at Tam
pico. and states further that he will not
be justified in placing quarantine
against that city. This is the situa-
ton as it now stands.
