Attorney r. E. Morris. counsel
for John L. Murray paid his own
poll tax Immediately and without
demur. which would almost seem as
if Mr. Morris already has sufficiently
large package of troubles without
shouldering unnecessary ONES. Mr..
Murray is heavy property holder
in Friday Harbor. he has been the re-
cipient of public favor for seventeen
years, and he knows that the poll tax
is for the improvement of the streets
of the town. A really public spirit
ed citizen would hardly squabble over
the expenditure of paltry two doll
ars to be used for the public good.
Mr.. Murray has been in the lime
light for a sufficient length of time.
now, and he should pay his tax and
step down as he knows perfectly we'll
that the legality of the matter is a
settled question and it is only ques-
ton of time when he will be forced to
do what every other man expects and
intends to do.

Read the parallels in the early part
of Matthew and those in the latter
part of the book and observe the con-
trast in the color of their speech.
The parallels in the early part are of
love mercy. pity. the manner of the
growth of the Kingdom of Grace the
parallels in the latter part of the
hook are of sin and of judgment to
come.
Through this parable that we have
under consideration runs the message
of free grace in it. also. is the doom
of Judgment.
Notice. first. Gods Invitations.
The Kingdom of heaven is llkened
unto king who made marriage feast
for his son. God invites men to a
feast a great occasion; a royal ban
quet; a festival. The Gospel is not a
synonym for RIGHTEOUSNESS it is full
of the deepest and richest gifts of
God. All through the Bible the in
vitation of God is to feast to jubi-
lee festivities ; to"a land flowing with
milk and honey - to regal banquet
ings, with the blare of the trumpet
and the unfurling of the banner: the
invitation of God is to marriage
feast; to high raptures; to satisfying
delights; to deepest joys the world
knows nothing of. Such is the large
ness of His invitation.
Can we read this with any inward
vision without seeing also the freeness
of it? 1t isn't any reluctant invitation
that God sends forth to the children
of men. The Bible is full of His free.
loving invitations to come to the great
feast that He has spread. We do not
get any farther than the ninth verse
of the third chapter of the very first
book of the Bible before we hear the
loving voice of God calling to the
wanderer. and We get to the last book
of the Bible, and to the very last chap
ter. and almost to the very last verse
before we finish reading these gracious
Invitations to His pardoning mercy,
-"And the Spirit and the bride say,
Come Ard let him that heareth say.
Come. And let him that is athirst
come. And whatsoever will. let him
take of the water of life freely
OIL Gods pardoning mercy. No
tongue can ever tell it. No mind can
ever comprehend it. No heart can
ever feel it in all its depth. No poet
can ever voice it in m p eris b b Q
speech. No painter can ever fling its
fullness of meaning on the canvas.
No sculptor can ever chisel it into the
granite or marble. So high it can
never be scaled. So deep it can never
be fathomed. So broad it can never
be measured. Rivers cannot auench
it Floods cannot drown it.

Nogales, A,iz. May ', 1909, To whom it may concern:
 ''Sec. 8. Thas any person, including the master, agent, owner, or consignee of any vessel, who shall bring into or land in the United States, by vessel or otherwise, or who shall attempt, by himself or through others, to bring in to or lard in the United States, by vessel or otherwise, any alien rot duly admitted by an immigrant inspector. or not lawfully entitled to enter the United States shall he guilty of a mis- domeanor, and shall, on conviction, be punished by fine not exceeding one thousand dollars, or by Imprisonment not exceeding two years, or ty both such fine and impris 1nment for each and every alien so landed or brought in or attempted to be landed or brought in."
 The foregoing section of the Immi- grafton Laws is quoted for the benefit of the many people, and especially business men, of Nogales, who appear to be laboring under the erroneous inn pression that Chinese, Japanese and K orean aliens can be brought across the line to the American side on errands, to trade, or for any purpose, whatso- ever, upon the mere assertion that such persons are merchants and have a right to come to the United States or that such persona intend to remain but few minutes or hours at most and then return to Mexico.
 Ia the past considers ble annoyance nas been occasioned by the bringing 70 the American eide of the town for purposes aliens of the class mentioned above; and usually when Ipprehended by an immigration officer, he person responsible for their con- hg, or the alien himself, pleads ignor- nee of the law. Heretofore, and one uoh case occurred only yesterday, the officers, although ignor- nee of the law is no excuse. have ccepted the excuses offered, feeling, 8 they did. that possibly an injustice you'd be done the persons concerned 'ere they arrested and prosecuted for heir acts and the aliens concerned laced in jail and eventually deported o the respective countries of which hey are subj cts. Al aliens of Jap nese or Korean race coming to the nited States are considered by the wv to be laborers until they have roven the contrary to the satisfaction the proper immigration officers. If 1ch an alien claims to be a merchant, is necessary for him to prove that @ IS in fact a merchant and be duly mitted to the United States by an officer, even though he esires to remain on the American de, for specific purpose, but a few minutes only. Chinese of any class, .borers or otherwise, cannot be ad- fitted at this port for any purpose xcept in transit, in bond, through the nited States to foreign situations.
 Iuasmuch as it is not my desire to ake advantage of the law to cause for the violations of law in the foregoing without rst taking steps to caution those hom it may interest, l take this leans of advising that hereafter ex- uses will not be accepted. The evil fleet of former practices, if condoned Dd allowed to continue, will be most ernicIous and inmical to proper en- ,Ece ement of the law.
 Very respectfully,
 o. F. MILLER, nsDector in CharCa IT = Immiyra
