Washington, Feb 14.-President
Taft today vetoed the Dillingham;
Burnett immigration bill, which
would revolutionize the immigratio,
policy Of the United States by impc
ing literacy test upon all foreig-
seeking home in America. :
In short message to the Sc -
his own handwriting, the ) mt
announced his disapprovap the
measure solely because g pro-
vision which would lock Z. oors Of
the United States age sac alien
who could not read 81 Snguage or
dialect
The veto message was accompanied
by letter to the President from Sec
retary Nagel, denouncing the literacy
test as radical provision based up
on fallacy in undertaking to apply
test which is not calculated to reach
the truth and to fird relief from a
danger which really does not exist"
The President adopted the Secretary's
position.
Senate and House leaders lost no
time in arranging for an effort to
override the veto. AS soon as the
message was read, Senators Dilling-
ham and Simmons, and Representa-
tives Burnett, leading the Congress
sional supporters of the measure,
made arrangements to take it up in
the Senate on Monday and in he
House on Tuesday. With Senator
Lodge, they were confident that the
bill would be passed easily in both
houses by the necessary two-thirds
vote.
Opponents and proponents of the
proposed law waged a vigorous con-
test in hearings before the President
for the last ten days. Organized labor
warmly supported the bill, while sew
eral organizations, practically Jewish
societies recommended it's veto. For
eign nations protested against the
provision for detailing immigrant in
spectors and matrons on vessels fly
ing foreign flags, but Secretary Nagel
held that this was not a controlling
objection TO the proposed law.
This is the second time that a lit
eracy test for immigrants has been
vetoed by President, Grover Cleve-
land, in 1897, likewise having refus-
ed to approve bill barring aliens
who could not read and write.

GOMEZ INVADES MEXICO.
PrOclaims Himself Provisional Pres
dent.

Ell Paso, Tex. Feb. 15.-Emilio
Vasquez Gomez, recently released on
bond at San Antonio, Tex, today
crossed the border at Columbus, n.
NJ, and proclaimed himself President
of Mexico.
1t Is reported that Gomez was met
below the line by a band Of rebels,
led by Col. David De La Fuente, Gen.
Salazar's chief of staff who always
has been a Vasquista. Emilio Vas
quez Gomez and his brother, Dr.
Francisco Vasquez Gomez. played
prominent parts in the Madero revo-
luton. Emilio was a member Of the
De La Barra Provisional Cabinet.
During Orozco's occupancy Of
JuareZ, during the Orozco revolt,
Emilio came to Juarez to become Pro-
visional President, but was put in
Jail by Orozco. The estrangement of
the two rebel leaders never has been
explained Later Gomez was released
and came to the United States, where
he was arrested on charges Of neu-
trality violation. Recently he was re-
leased on bond at San Antonio.
In telegrams sent here today Senor
Gomez said he would appoint his Cab

visional President of Mexico by virtue
Of the plan of San Luis Potosi, which
was reformed at Tacubaya and Ayu-
la. The Tacubaya amendment to the
original programme Of Francisco /.
Madero proclaimed Gomez President
and was accepted at the time by re-
bel Gems OroZco and Zapata The
Vasquistas assert that this stand Of
the rebels for Gomez has not beer
altered since and that now they will
rally to his call.
The difficulty with Orozco, it is
pointed out will not matter now, as
Orozco has disappeared and Salazar
is the acting commander in chief Of
the Northern rebels. 1t is conceded
that the influence of Col De La Fuen-
Ia will be sufficient to bring Salazar
and Gomez TO satisfactory under
standing.

situation Discussed at Another Special
session of Cabinet at White House,
Resulting in Reafirmation of Atu-
tude Already Frequently Stated.

Washington, Feb. 17-Secretary Of
State Knox was directed by President
Taft to reply early this morning to
the request Of President Francisco [.
Madero, Of Mexico, for a definite
statement of the policy Of the United
States toward Mexico.
The Cabinet, which was in session
for more than two hours, adjourning
at l2.40 o'clock, spent the time dis
cussing the terms Of the reply Though
no official statement was given out, it
was declared that Secretary Knox
would state that the attitude Of this
Government would remain just as it
had been for two years past.
The exact nature Of the reply was
not disclosed and it was said that the
note would be dispatched to President
MaderO at once and probably would
be made public today.
Upon leaving the White House
Secretary Knox reiterated that inter-
VentiOn was not now contemplated
nor would there be any change in the
naval or military plans relating to

F. B. HAYNE AND THE SOUTH.
Cotton Farmers Urged to Pay Legal
Expenses Of Mr.. Hayne and His
Friends

To the Editor Of The News and
Courier: In reading some of the
circulars sent us by the various bro
kers in New York, I noticed this ex-
preston in referring to the advance
in cotton last month in the New York
market: But the tail and wing
feathers of this rise were clipped by
the decision handed down by the
Supreme Court in the cotton corner
case" In other words, it means that
any attempt to advance the price OF
cotton, especially by cotton men in
the South, is subject 10 arrest by the
Federal authorities. but, so far we
have heard of no arrest of any par
ties endeavoring to depress the price
of cotton. On the surface. il seems
that it is criminal to attempt to put
cotton prices higher, but legitimate
to put them as low as possible IT
is an admitted fact that if it hae
not been for the nerve and brains Of
Frank B. Hayne and his friends we
would never have seen the present
prices for cotton, and the farmers
children would still be picking cot
tom instead of attending school"
All men interested in cotton remem-
Der the magnificent stand Mr.. Hayne
and his friends took some years ago.
when they were being flooded with
cotton, by the bears in New York
1t is due in great part TO Mr.. Hayns
that cotton is not selling today at the
same old prices Of cents. cents
and cents, and the present prosper
ity Of the South is due in a great
measure to the stand these men took.
when the attempt was made to beat
down the price of cotton and Il keen
it down.
In view Of these facts I wish to sug-
gest that subscriptions be opened all
over the South. at the various cotton
centres, to receive contributions to
pay his legal expenses but more than
that, to act as a protest against the
action of the Federal Government
and to show that the South publicly
recognizes the services Of Mr.. Hayne
and his friends; subscriptions TO be
accepted ranging from - cents up. /
think that every cotton man in the
South would gladly contribute to such
n cause, and l hope that the papers
of the South Will take this idea up
and publish this suggestion in their
various communities. Yours truly,
