MRS. PANKHURST
MAY BE DEBARRED
FROM THE u. S


local class of aliens excluded from the
United States
While the immigration authorities have
issued no orders for her detention, scores
of protests against her admission, lodged
with immigration headquarters here and
with the local authorities at New York,
leave no other course open to the au-
thorities to pursue.
Authorities here now say no protest
against Mrs. Panl<hurst's admittance have
been received from the Society Opposed to
Women Suffrage, or from any of its mem
bers individually on behalf of the organi-
cation
Difficult Situation
An equal number of communications
protesting, against her exclusion have been
received. The controversy which has been
stirred in advance of her landing and
evangelical work, officials point out, has
created a situation which no single i'm
migration inspector would attempt to set
tie, and no course remains but to deta1n
the British leader until her case can be
passed on by board of review as would
be done in the case of any other disputed
landing.
A record of Mrs. Pankhurst's activities;
her arrests and imprisonments included,
has been furnished to the officials at
New York. Upon that and upon a hear
ing the immigration authorities Will de-
eide If any of the suffrage leaders acts
have been such as to debar her from the
United States. A principal question to be
determined will be do her court records
and Jail sentences in the cause for women
constitute moral turpitude within the IN
depreciation of the immigration law?'
Expect Legal Battle
The officials expect legal battle to
attract the attention of suffragists all
over the world The national suffrage or
ganization probably will aid the British
leader Whether the anti-suffragists will
conduct any organized resistance to her
landing is not known here positively. Suf-
frase leaders intimate that any decision
by the immigration authorities adverse to
Mrs. Pankhurst may be carried to the
courts as was the recent case of Cipriano
Castro, which resulted in victory for
the Venezuelan exile.

withdrawal would be recommended.

To Protect Deputies

Mexico City October 13-President
Huerta has assured the American charge
daffares, Nelson O'Shaughnessy, that
no violence will be done the imprisoned
deputies. The American charge met the
President by chance and in the course
of the conversation warned him of the
baneful effect which would be produced
throughout the civilized world should
harm come to the deputies
Later the embassy received instructions
from the state department at Washing
ton to make precisely such representa-
tons, whereupon Mr.. O Shaughnessy for
mally communicated to the executive the
Washington administrations expression
on the subject.
While promising that no harm would
befall the prisoners and adding there
never had been any intention to inflict
physical injury. General Huerta asserted
that most of the deputies would have to
stand trial for offenses against the gov
eminent. He gave no intimation that
any of them would be released in the
near future.

THE POWERS WHICH
RECOGNIZED HUERTA
DEEPLY CONCERNED


effect that the British government Is
deeply concerned over its recognition of
Huerta, and it is even declared reliably
that King George and Queen Mary have
taken personal interest in the situation
with view to measures that would sup
port the policy of the United States. 1t is
reported that Great Britain is prepared at
the first opportunity to repudiate the rec
ognition and failure of the Huerta adj
mnistration TO hold an election on. De-
tober 20 probably would be held as suf-
ficient cause. In this connection officials
here recall the British governments re-
cent statement that recognition of Huerta
was provisional pending an election
While the American war vessels in Mex
lean waters outnumber the foreign ships
and will render any aid not only to
Americans, but all foreigners, In cases
of emergency it is believed by the Wash
ington authorities that the sending of
a German. vessel Immediately after the
arrest of the members of the chamber of
deputies may have a SOLDERING effect on
Provisional President Huerta, and prevent
him from going to further extremes.
Strong representation went forth from
the United States to the Mexican federal
authorities today calling on General
Huerta to protect the lives of the i'm
prisoned deputies. 1t was pointed out
that this action was taken not because
the United States has any desire to inter-
fere in the internal affairs of the south
ern republic, but in the cause of human
ity. Similar representations were made
when Madero and Suarez were arrested
Whether or not the protest of the United
States against injuring the deputies Will
be followed by any drastic action should
Huerta defy all warnings and punish the
deputies, is one OF the questions being
discussed by those who are shaping the
administrations policy.
No change in the attitude of this coun-
try was announced today, but President
Wilson and his advisers are debating what
the next, step should be and tomorrow's
cabinet meeting may bring forth de-
cision on the subject.
Another development that is occupying
the attention of department officials is
the yellow fever epidemic in Carmen and
Campeche. American warships usually lie
a few miles off the coast and are not in
danger but refugees who are being con-
stantly picked up will be carefully ex-
amined. More care will be taken by the
navy doctors in granting shore leave to
American sailors.
Surgeon General Blue of the public
health and marine hospital service is in
close touch with the situation. and is adj
vising that all precautions be taken.

CUT The WEEDS NOW
those Appointed foremen For the
Weed Cutting Campaign Should
Have Their Forces Organized

Two weeks ago there appeared
a list Of names that the City
Council had selected to oversee
the cutting Of weeds in the city,
designating the 18th of July as
the time that a mighty army of
people with hoe and rake is TO
slay the weeds. and thereby clean
up the town.
This is the week announced for
the attack, and already manv
have cut the weeds off of their
own premises. and We believe
that when the date mas rolled
around for the big battle that
there will be but few weeds left
standing.
The foremen should have their
forces organized however, and
be ready for the hour to begin.
which has been named at four
O'Clock Friday, July u. II is
expected that the work begin at
this time. but it is hoped that II
will not cease tall all the weeds
have been cut. Get the issue of
the Avalanche. published on July

set out for you.

proportions; for it is safe pre-
diction that while the power
exists the Legislature will con
tinually exercise il.
The matter is squarely before
the people.
The state is now under a heavy
bond debt, created during the r.
}. Davis administration of ante.
bullum days, and as far as ] can
learn, not a dollar of the princi-
pal has been paid, but twice the
amount of the debt has been
paid out in interest. With the
continual increase of state debt
that will follow the grant to the
legislature of unrestrained power
to issue bonds. the state may
soon find itself hopelessly in
volved. The subject justifes
very serious consideration before
one decides 10 vote for this
amendment.
There can be no harm in delay
until another constitutional
amendment can be submitted TO
the voters. specifically authoriz-
ing a bond issue of a fixed sum

BONE ISSUANCE NOT SAFE
Legislature Should Not be Given
Unlimited Power to Increase
Debt Says A. B, Wood

Readers of theNews have now
had opportunity to acquaint
themselves with the argument
advanced in support of the con-
stitutional amendment authoriz-
ing the legislature to issue bonds
without limit to erect state build
ings. This argument is fully set
out in the letters of Gov. Colquitt
and speeches of President Mezes
of the State University and State
Superintendent Bradley. who ad-
vocate the amendment because
of the many meritorious purposes
for which the money thus raised
through bond issues by the State
is to be applied. and especially
the great need of it for improv-
ing the several state educational
institutions. including the great
university at Austin.
! heartily indorse and would
gladly encourage every move
ment toward the Improvement
and development of each educa-
tional institution. and particul-
arly the university; | believe too
much money cannot be expended
for education, and that the state
IS exceedingly backward in not
long since providing a sufficient
fund TO fully equip these institu-
tons of learning and in making
the State University at Austin
indeed a university of the first
class, second TO none in the en-
tire country. Our young men
are entitled to the highest devel-
opment in education; they are
the equals of any in native IN
genuity; they should also be as
finished scholars when graduated
from our institutions Of higher
learning. But we are told by
those competent to speak that
other young men of other States
have superior educational advan-
tages. This is an intolerable
condition and should be remedied.
If the Legislature will stipulate
the amount of bonds desired for
the university at Austin, and the
other Institutions. be it large or
small. | believe that 90 per cent
of the voters will authorize the
necessary issues. This is quite
different from leaving the matter
entirely with the legislature,
Some say a bond issue is
necessary to rebuild our peniten-
tiaries. Perhaps so. But if the .
bonds are necessary. for this or /
any other purpose, the people I
should be told the exact amount /
of money needed and the exact /
purposes to which it will be APP
