ENGLISH ASK INTERVENTION.
British Press Urges U. S. to Act i'm
Mexico.

London, Feb. 24-American inter-
Vention in Mexico is demanded here
by leading London newspapers. All
voice sharp comment on the killing
of former President Madero and
Vice-President Suarez, ridiculing as
sertions that the two men were
killed by a mob which sought their
freedom. Immediate action by the
United States is urged
THE civilized world" saws the
London Globe, has a right to expect
that the United States will respect
its responsibilities as well as reap it's
advantages from the Monroe doc
trine."
The London Daily Express says:
This is no time for dalliance or SEN
timent. Americans have been in
Mexico before, and must 20 again.
Further delay of action by the United
States means the ruin of all its legit-
innate enterprises in Mexico, Large
British capital invested in Mexico
gives this country the right to de-
niand action by the United States. "
The Express calls the force of
5000 men ordered to the Mexican
border by President Taft as "a pill
for an earthquake" adding that the
work before the United States will
require the services of a million men
The Daily Mail says: "The United
States has commanded that Madero
should not be executed, and the
great neighboring states of Mexico
are not to be lightly mocked. The
Bretense that Madero and Suarez
met death by accident rather strains
credIlity."
The London Times says: THE
civilized nations Will put their own
construction on the lame and hating
story which the successful conspir-
ators now ruling Mexico have chosen
TO issue. Unless it can be proved.
foreign observers will retain the be-
lief that the open removal of the two
haderos and of Suarez is fresh
proof of the innate ferocity of Mexi-
can politicians"
The Daily News: ANY middle
course, such as financial or military
propping up by the United States of
one or the other Mexican leaders or
the establishment of any sort of a
Mexican Cuba, could only be
achieved by combination of luck
and adroit diplomacy"

WEsTERLUND DENIES 1T.
Representative Denies That He Put
Joker in Liquor Bill.

Salem, Feb. 24.-After a speech in
his own defense, on motion of
Reames. the house has given Repre-
sentative ]. A. Westerlund a vote of
confidence, as result of the publi-
cation by the Portland Journal of
the assertion that the committee on
alcohol inserted jokers in liquor bills.
Mr. Westerlund spoke in his own de-
tense as follows:
My attention was called last even
ing to an article with red headlines
on the first page of the Portland
Journal, wherein they printed
damnable and vicious lie about me
and my fellow members on the alco-
holic traffic committee.
desire to make it perfectly clear
that personally | am a temperate
man and advocate temperance, but l
am not fanatical prohibitionist. /
believe, personally, in the strictest
kind of legislation in the liquor traf-
fic; / also believe that just and fair
treatment should he given the liquor
element, so long as they do not vio-
late the law and violate common de-
cency.
Il most emphatically deny that l
have ever tried or attempted to fix
a single bill. Nor have l been a par
ty thereto. l also desire TO state
that l have not offered a single
amendment to any one of the eleven.
bills that we have had under consid-
Grafton and passed on.
Your committee has acted as a
whole and never, to my knowledge,
have they acted on single bill with
out first having had both sides of
the question heard. Any fixing,
amendments that your committee
have accepted, has been agreed to by
the temperance and liquor represen-
tatives, and in every case we have
let them thresh out the difference,
so as to arrive at common under
standing.
I'VE have accepted their compro-
mise and suggestion as to changes
and incorporated them into the bills
or amendments.
Gentlemen, leave it to this house
to say whether any member of our
committee has acted unfair and i'm
partial. l appeal to your true sense
of justice and manhood if statements
such as printed in this paper should
go out to our people in this great
state, unanswered.
And, gentlemen of the press, in
the name of common decency and
justice, man between man, l demand
and have right to demand that such
damnable and malicious, false state
ments be retracted."
