OPPRESSION BY LAW.

! A, strict enforcement of a general

about either an absurd situation or a
lease of extreme hardship, and both of
these seem to have been reached in a
Erecent case under the immigration

William Gurnett came to this coun-
try from Ireland some sixty years ago.
He took out naturalization papers in
due course. and proved his faith in his
adopted country by enlisttng in the
union army. He was wounded at Get
tysburg, won six medals for distin-
Ruished bravery, and has been drawing
pension for many years. .'r
William concluded couple Of
months ago to go back to "the ould
sodn. He enjoyed his vacation with
kin and acquaintance there, and re-
turned the other day Wearing his six
medals strung across his breast, he
started to walk ashore when the
steamship tied up at the dock in New

when Mr.. Gurnett started on his trip

display Of his medals as proof of his

Threatened with being sent to Ellis

IN INTERESTS OF HUMANITY.

The Mexican situation seems to have
, finally reached a crisis The Huerta
ultimatum, demanding instant recog-
milton, undoubtedly means the severing
J Of all diplomatic relations, and as The
Forum predicted not long ago, the
United States will probably be forced
to take charge of affairs in Mexico in
the interests of humanity, not prop
erty.
There is little real demand in this
, country for the protection of American
property in Mexico, but there is a pop
ular demand that the United States
step in and put an end to the rule Of
the murderer and assassin. At the
present time Mexico is practically in
state Of anarchy and what is needed
there more than anything else is eff
cient police protection.
Many American newspapers have
Adeplored what they term lingo" talk
| on the part of Americans who advo-
cate American intervention. The For
um does not believe there is much of
? the feeling of jingoism in the popular
mind. The American people do not
want the conquest of Mexico as a. con-
! quest. A war of conquest would not
be tolerated.
But it is the duty of the strong to
protect the weak, even if they must
protect the weak against themselves,
and that is the strongest demand that
is being made for Mexican interven-
tion. With two peace advocates like
Wilson and Bryan in charge of the
war making end OF the government,

quest" except one in the interests Of
