FORMER AMBASSADOR
WILSON TALKS OF MEXICO

Washington, Nov. 24.-Henry Lane
Wilson, former ambassador to Mex
leo, last night in an address here
likened the diplomacy of the Wilson
administration to "a Mother Hub
bard, which covers everything and
touches nothing"
1--WE are now committed to policy
in the Mexican situation" said Will
son, (which will lead to humiliation
or require us to play schoolmaster
to every unruly republic between the
Rio Grande and Cape Horn"
Wilson told of the efforts of the
diplomatic corps at Mexico City to
save the city from the terrible blood
shed of the ten days of bombardment
just prior to the killing Of Madero.
"The diplomats, the Mexican sem
ate and the Mexican deputies bore
petitions to Madero to step aside ard
turn his powers over to congress"
said Wilson. when the army add
ed its petition, Madero, with his own
hands, killed the two officers who
bore the message. Subsequently
Madero fed and was captured by the
rebels and later assassinated in re-
venge for the death of the officers he
killed. Huerta had nothing to do
with It,"
The government of Huerta." con-
tinued Wilson, was as legally Or
ganized as the government of Roose-
velt after the assassination of NC
Kinley. Every act taken was in con-
cord with the constitution.
Never before has this govern
ment attempted to pass on the quail
fications of another country to gov
ern itself. Never before have Amer
leans been ordered out of another
country"

Washington, Nov. 25.-Amid a
scene of rare beauty, Miss Jessie
Woodrow Wilson, second daughter
of President and Mrs. Woodrow Will
son, welded Francis B. Sayre of New
York, son OF Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
II. Sayre of Pennsylvania, at 4:30
o'clock this afternoon. Surrounded
by foreign diplomats, resplendent in
their brilliant uniforms, the highest
officials in the service of the coun-
try, members of the most exclusive
social set Of the capital, including
several hundred friends and kinsmen
of the two families, the bridal couple
took the Presbyterian VOWS in the
east room of the White House, the
scene of many famous and historic
gatherings.
Simplicity marked the ceremony,
but the scene was one of royal gran
deur. Women in brilliant gowns,
the corps of aides to the president in
uniforms, the bandsmen hidden be-
hind the bank of palms and flowers
in full dress regalia, the bride,
charming in a rich cream white satin
gown, all combined to make this,
the thirteenth White House we'd
ding more notable than any of the
twelve that have preceded 1t. The
Rev. Sylvester w. Beach of Prince
ton, N. j., family pastor of the Will
sons during their residence in the
university town, performed the cere-
mony.
Departing from the usual custom
OF White House weddings, the bridal
couple entered the east room to the
strains of Lohengrin's Wedding
March, played by the United States
marine band, and accompanied by
the voices Of group Of st. Johns
Protestant Episcopal church choir
boys. The bridal party formed in
the dining room, after the Wilson
and Sayre family parties had entered
the east room from the statH stair
way. The 500 guests had already
found their places. Mr.. Sayre and
his best man, DR.. Wilfred T. Gren-
fell Of Labrador, descended the state
stairway and proceeded to his posi-
tion at the right Of the altar.
Just as the clock pointed to 4:30
o'clock, the marine band, which had
previously played softly, struck up
the wedding march. This was taken
up by the choir boys, who awaited
the bridal party in the west end OF
the red corridor. Radiant in her
shimmering robe of white satin, and
leaning on the left arm of the presi.
dent, the bride took up the triumphant
march to the altar-a raised plat.
form near the great window opening
on to the east terrace. Followine

REGISTRATION LAW 1913
HELD UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Salem, Nov. 25.-Oregons 1913
permanent registration law, includ-
ing the repeating clauses, was de-
clared unconstitutional today by the
state supreme court. This action
reinstated the old registration law
which requires that an elector must
register before each election. A
peremptory writ Of mandamus,
sought by the city of Portland, was
granted directing John B. Coffey,
clerk of Multnomah county, to de-
liver to the city auditor the 1912 re-
gistration lists for use at the special
election next month.
The 1918 act is declared uncon-
stitutional because the legislature
did not complete the enactment OF
the law but attempted to involve the
supreme court in connection with
tne leglslatlOn Dy making a provision
that inasmuch as the supreme court
held the compulsory feature of the
act unconstitutional, the remainder
of the act would remain in force.
The compulsory feature was not
passed upon by the court. The opin-
ion, written by Justice Moore, holds
that the validity of the act is made
to depend upon a decision of the SUI
preme court, which body is not legis-
lative.
The section which provides that
If an elector lost his certificate OF
registration, he could not obtain an
other unless he had witnesses to
prove that the certificate was de-
stroyed by natural calamity, is de-
clared unreasonable.

FULLER GETS SENTENCE
OF FROM 3 TO 20 YEARS

From three TO twenty years in the
state penitentiary was the punish
ment meted out 10 A. G. Fuller. a
garage employe from this city, by the
circuit court at Medford today, Full
ler having been convicted on a sta
tutory crime against Beatrice Kav-
anaugh, a 16-year-old girl of Med
ford. The girl on the stand testified
that her downfall had been accom-
plished by Fuller when she was but
13 years of age. The girl is now in
a hospital suffering from nervous
breakdown.
The tragic figure of the trial was
Mrs. Fuller, wife of the defendant,
whose faith in her mate was un-
shaken until she heard letters read
from Fuller to the girl, whom he
called Babe" that teemed with love,
and at times bordered on the sala-
cious suggestive.
Fuller in defense maintained that
he viewed the Kavanaugh girl as
sister and that all his intentions were
honorable. The Kavanaughs, father
and mother, appeared for the defend
ant, and against their own child.
Fuller was a prolific letter writer.
Epistles he sent to the girl and her
parents were read as evidence. In
one the mother of the complaining
witness is called sweetheart"
