An order releasing the much discussed
visitor from detention at Ellis Island, <.
y, and revolving the deportation order OF
the special inquiry board. was issued to-
day after President Wilson had conferred
with Secretary Wilson of the department
Of labor and a formal hearing before i'm
migration Commissioner Camine.t on
Mrs. Pankhurst's appea! had been con
cluded.
Secretary Wilson announced that he
and the President had agreed that Mrs.
Pankhurst should be admitted ION her
own recognizanoe" with the understand
ing that she should depart when she
had fulfilled her lecture engagements
Both the President and the secretary
agreed with Commissioner Caminetti in
the opinion that there was an element
of doubt as to whether the acts for which
Mrs. Pankhurst had been convicted in
England constituted moral turpitude. or
were political in character
Commissioner CamiIetti tonight issued
a formal statement outlining the reasons
for his decision ia the case.

COMES FOR SHORT VISIT.
Mrs. Pankhurst states, and counse
throughout the case have asserted, tina
she is coming here only for short visi
for the specific purposes of fulfilling en-
Eagements to deliver lectures; that al
that is desired is that she may be above,
to carry out those engagements,

ARGUMENT OF HER ATTORNEY.
| Herbert Reeves. attorney for the British

viewing first the facts. and then con-
| tended that the acts of which Mrs Pank-
hurst had been convicted in England
| were purely political offenses and did
not involve moral turpitude, the req
question at issue. His argument was
| long and technical. and cited portions OF
decisions in many Immigration cases, and
| some of the works of John Bassett
| Moore. now acting secretary of state
and an authority on international law
! He quoted Mrs. pankhursts testimony
before the immigration inspectors at Elm
| Island and concluded;
"From that testimony ii is respect
| fully submitted that at the time of
the commission of the acts complained
Of there was an uprising or revolt on
the part of the women in Englan /
that this uprising or revolt was of a
political nature ana that any crimes
committed by Mrs. Panlthurst, If any
| were committed by her. were crimes
purely of a political nature and not
such as to involve moral turpitude.
"The mere delivery of lectures OF
speeches urging women to strive foi
what she believes to he their legal an6
political rights is certainly an act in
cause ana such act, therefore. must be
deemed, if an offense at all a political
offcnsr. Nor can it be claimed or sue

urging of her hearers to destroy prop
ertN. if necessary to bring about the
desired result. is an act involving

An Able Defense of the Doctor

An Able Defense of the Doctor.
The doctor is a good fellow.
His living depends upon our get
ting sick, yet he cheerfully tells
us how to keep well. We call
him up at 3 a. M, tell him the
baby has the collie, and if he does
not do a tango for our place i'm
mediately, we hold it against
him all our lives. After he has
worked with the little fellow the
rest of the night and part of the
day and has gone home and pur-
sued the even tenor of his way
for a couple of months and then
he happens to mention to us that
we owe him a couple or three
| dollars, we go up in the air and
ask him how in the dickens he
expects us to pay him before
fall. In the fall-some fall-we
swap him a runty calf or make
him "take it out in trade" He
spends his whole life trying to
find out what is the matter with
us and how to cure us, and we
know more in a minute than he
would in a thousand years, and
we tell him SCAT least we tell
the neighbors so. If a patient
gets we'll we attribute it to his
constitution, if he fails to recov-
err we put a dent in the doctors
reputation. All of which the
doctor seems to consider only a
part of his business and serenely
goes about trying to keep us out
of the churchyard and himself
out of the poorhouse.-Chandler

The National Game Law.

The sportsmen Of this section,
who as a class favor legislation
that will protect our game and
and fish and will stand for the
enforcement of the new national
law protecting migratory birds,
have for some time anxiously
awaited definite and positive in
formation relative to the rules
laid down by the commission to
whom referred. President Will
son recently affixed his signature
to these regulations and they
have gone forth to the country
under proclamation of the presl-
dent.
In enforcing the law, national
game wardens are already being
appointed, but the advisory
board which assisted the Depart
nent of Agriculture in framing
these rules, assures the public
that snap judgment is not to be
taken upon offenders, before
general publicity is given to the
new rules.
The following classes of MI
gratory birds are included with
in the protection of the law
water fowl including brant,
ducks, geese, swans, cranes
rails, shore birds including plov-
.er, snipe, woodcock, ETC., wild
pigeons and doves; and lnsec-
tivorous birds, such as bobollnks'
catbirds, chickadees, fllckers'
,cuckoos, humming birds, mar
tins, meadow larks, bull bats
oreoles, robins, swallows, war
blers, thrushes, whippoorwllls'
woodpeckers, wrens and all
perching birds, which feed en-
9tirely or chiefly on insects.

ed season the year round.
A closed season for five years
or until September l, 1918 is
fixed on pigeons, cranes, swans
and all shore birds except plover,
iacksnipe, woodcock and the
greater or lesser yellow legs
and wood ducks are also protect
ed the whole year in many
states, but not in Arkansas.
Migratory birds are protected
after January l, 1913 on two OF
our great rivers, the MISSISSIPPI
pi, between Minneapolis and
Memphis; and the Missouri
from Bismarck to Nebraska City
from hunters in boats or other
floating device.
The country is divided into
two zones, a northern or breed
ing zone known as No. l and a
Southern or wintering zone No.
2, which includes our own state.
In Zone No. 2 which lays
south of Latitude 40 degrees
and the Ohio River, the
closed season on waterfowl
shall be between January Is and
October 1, except in certain
states, where the closed seasons
vary. The closed season on
shore birds in this zone is from
December 16 to September l;
on rails and coots from Deem
Der to September 1; on wood
cock from January l to Novem-
Der /. There are exceptions to
these seasons, but Arkansas fol-
lows the rules for Zone 2

Underwood Out For Senate.

With his heart set on and his
energies bent to the perfection
and passage of the tariff bill,
Oscar w. Underwood has had
no time to think of any office
higher than that of congress-
man. But with the bill guided
safely to the presidents desk
his labors came to an end, and
he could look about and take cog
nizance of other matters.
The result is that he has
this week hung his shield in the
Alabama senatorial lists, and is
ready for a tilt with any and all
corners.
There were already two con-
testants in the field. Richmond
Pearson Hobson and Henry D.
Clayton made their announce
ments some months ago Both
of these are men of national rep
utation. Hobson's Spanish-A-
merican war record is known
wherever history is read. His
political services are less con-
spicuous, for politics is never as
illustrious as war laurels. But
he was presidential elector in
1904 land served as congress-
man in the Sixtieth and Sixty
first congresses. He has added
to his capacity for public work
by several lecture tours which
gave him opportunity for obser-
walton of general conditions. He
is good speaker and an indefa-
tigable campaigner.
Henry Clayton has also sat in
the electoral college for his
state and helped to cast her
presidential vote. He is an old
er man than Hobson by at least
a dozen years, and has been ac-
tive in the affairs of his state,
and represented his district in
congress from 1897 to 1911. 1t
was he whom Governor O'Neal
appointed last summer to fill out
the senatorial term left vacant
by the death of Senator Johnson,
and he is regarded as a strong
capable man.
But even with two such op-
ponents, Oscar Underwood's
election is probable, for Alabama
will hardly fail to reward him, as
far as in her lies, for the splen-
did work which he did, not only
for her, but for the whole ma
ton in shaping and guiding the
Democratic tariff legation. If
ever a man worked faithfully
and heroically for a government
measure, he worked for that.
Today Democracy stands with
a indicated tariff promise large
ly through the efforts of this
sturdy, finely balanced states
man from the state the interpre-
tation of whose name he has
changed to "here we never rest
until we accomplish our aims"
Mr.. Underwood's emphasized
service to his state before he be-
came a national figure was to aid
materially in securing the pres
ent state constitution. He has
stood in congress for the Ninth
Alabama District since 1856
Commercial-Appeal.- Clay
ton has since announced his re-
tirement from the race.
