U. S. Opens Doors
To British Militant
Mrs. Pankhurst No Longer
Held At Ellis Island.

Washington, Oct. 20.-Amer-
ica's doors today were opened to
Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, and
during the few weeks covered by
her lecture engagements the
British militant suffragette lead
er is free to go where she will in
the United States. An order re-
leasing Mrs. Pankhurst from de-
tention at Ellis Island, N. Y, and
revoking the deportation order
of the special inquiry was issued
today after President Wilson had
conferred with Secretary Wilson.
OF the department of labor, and
a formal hearing before Immi-
grafton Commissioner Caminetti
on Mrs. Pankhursts' appeal had
been concluded.
Secretary Wilson announced
that he and the president had
agreed that Mrs. Pankhurst
should be admitted ION her own
recognizance" with the under
standing that she would depart
when she had fulfilled her lecture
engagements. Both the presi-
dent 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. Pank-
hurst has been convicted in Eng
land constituted moral turpitude
or were political in character.
Commissioner Caminetti to-
night issued a formal statement
outlining the reasons for his de-
cision in the case:
There is nothing in the record
or before me-" said the state
ment, ito indicate that the Brit
ish government desires that Mrs.
Pankhurst shall be returned to
ngland; and the evidence of re-

cord indicates that while she was
placed under a sentence of three
years penal servitude she has
served only a small part of the
sentence and apparently no effort
has been made to compel her to
serve the balance. But as a
matter of fact, marked leniency
has been shown towards her by
the English authorizes. Shall
this government deny even tenn
porary asylum when by doing so
less consideration would be
shown Mrs. Pankhurst than Eng
land has displayed?

sustaining the motion of the de-
tense, he was not ruling upon
the question as to whether or not
the articles were obscene, and
that the government might at
any time proceed to reindict. Z"
The specific point upon which
the Indictment was quashed, was
emphasized by Mr.. Watson him
self during his brief presentation
of what ne termed ''other
phases" of the case. He argued
that if the Indictment against
him should stand, it would be
necessary to hold men who send
through the mails copies of the
Bible or the criminal code of
Georgia, guilty of the same of
Tense, because obscene words ap-
pear in both books.
United States District Attor-
ney Alderman submitted a brief
argument against the motion.
He claimed that it was unneces-
sary to include the alleged OBJ
jectionable articles in the indict-
ent in their entirety, and that
the indication of specific para
graphs was sufficient 1t was at
this point that Judge Foster ter
minated the trial by sustaining
the motion dismissing the charge
against Mr.. Watson.

Augusta, Ga. Oct. 21.-The
trial here Of Thomas E. Watson,
charged with sending obscene
matter through the mails, ended
abruptly at noon today when
Federal Judge Rufus E, Foster
sustained the motion of the de-
Tense, quashing the Indictment
against the Georgia editor. I'm
mediately upon the announce
ment of the courts ruling, there
was demonstration by the audi
ence, which Judge Foster per-
mitted to pass unrebuked.
In directing that the indict-
ment be quashed, Judge Foster
said:
1T appears in this Indictment
that the publications alleged to
have been sent through the mails
in violation of the laws, are ex-
tracts from complete article. 1t
is my opinion that the govern
ment is required to plead the en-
tire article, and is not entitled to
pick out few paragraphs here
and there, and make them the
basis, of an Indictment He ad-
ded that if the government were
allowed to pursue such a course,
it would be possible to indict a
pc rson for sending through
t h e mails a copy Of t h e
Bible. Judge Foster said that in

THAT EXPOSITION MONEY

Governor Oddie declares that it
would be criminal negligence" if
Nevada did not participate in the
1915 exposition. Very naturally
he should defend his action in sign
ing TN legislative act which pro-
vides for the expenditure of $780,
600 for the San Francisco fair, and
$4,000 for the San Diego show.
Oddie appears anxious to have this
money go to places which probably
would be about the last to fall in
line in supporting an exposition
were it held in this state.
The Post still contends that the
$4,000 should he used in better
ing the state highways. The Lord
knows the roads need it. -Manhat-

SCHOOL ENTERPRISE

1t is just as a leading citizen of
EIko County said the other day:
1T is prope. and right that the
Elko Co.. High School should do
all it can to bring the better and
best things to Elko. Not books
merely; not merely courses of
study, not graduation but those
things that recommend Elko as
the center of Elko County Educa-
tional interests end culture. 1T is
we'll that things cducative as we'll
as merely entertaining be eDcour-
aged by positive support of her
citizens. The school Should not be
permitted to do all this at loss to
to the enterprises of its teachers and
pupils. The time is coming when
such enterprises will come to the
school and community as part Of
an educational policy. Now it is
incumbent on the public to get
back of them as great public
good"

AS TO TALKING

The wires toll US that in a public
square in Brooklyn women will
talk continuously for twenty-four
hours one day this week. Will that
be any>great feat? We have known
several ladies in our time either
one of whom could accomplish that
task without a relay. We have
known several men who could talk
twelve hours continuously. The
late Senator Morgan of Alabama
performed that feat more than
once and never halted for q word.
The late Senator Carter of Mon
tana did about as we'll, so did
Charles Sumner in the Nevada leg
islature.
And ladies are certainly twice
as good takers as men.

talking at the dinner table, talked

ballot which resulted in 6 being for
C nviction of murder in the first

At $3.50 last night, they came
into court and asked for further in-
structions. The sc. we're given and
the jury again retired. They took
ballot after ballot from that time
until IL o'clock this forenoon, when
they reported to the court that
they were unable to agree. They
were again sent out. At o'clock
this afternoon they, again reported
disagreement and were discharge

ever he was known. he was loved
for his honor. integrity and up
rightness. lending himself always
to some good work ead every puo-
lie movement that made for the
betterment Of the political fabric
of our commonwealth. The death
Of this noble man Of God was
mourned far and wide and from
every part of the County came the
old pioneers to pay their last tri.
butte of love and respect.
He was born in Ontario, Canada,
April %, 1854, and on November
l8, 1872, arrived. lin ElkoH lin which
county he has since resided. Dur
ing the early days of his residence
here he was engaged as a clerk in
the John Ainley hardware store in
Elko. On December &c, 1881, he
was married in Elko, Nevada. to
Miss Nettie Suggett, who died in
CarliR on February &c, 1905. From
1880 to 1890 he was engaged in
the mercantile business in Carlln,
with his brother John. Since that
time he has had a very successful
career as stock raiser, acquiring
possessions near Carlin.
AS public man George McIn-
tosh has served the people of the
state and county in the state legis-
lature, serving for two terms that
of 1909 and 1911. In opposition
to the many entreaties of his
friends he refrained from allowing
his name to be used at the last ses-
sion because Of his failing health.
During his work in the legislature
George Mcintosh led in many pub
lie movements. He is commonly
known as the Father Ct the Anti
gambling law which he also defend
ed in the legislature of 1911. By
his colleagues and those who were
acquainted with his legislative
career he has been familiarly
known as the silent legislator.
He spoke only when it was neces-
sary but when the time came he
was equal to the occasion and his
words respected above those Of all
others.
On December 28, 1911, he was
marie to Miss Sarah Snyder of
Broken Bon, Nebraska, who at that
time was teaching in the western
part Of the state. The ceremony
was performed in Carson City by
the Rev. w. H. D. HornaGy, the
former pastor of the family of the
bride during her residence in Me-
braska. Only six months after this
marriage the deceased was injured
in runaway from which accident
he never fully recovered, but grad
ually became worse until at last on
the twenty eighth of October his
tired spirit took it's flight to the
God that gave it. Nearly a year
had been spent in California for
the benefit Of health but it was
soon seen that he was beyond re.
covery and returned to Carlin
about six weeks before his death,
having given up all hope.
The services were held in the
Meth odist church at Carlin Satur-
day afternoon and were conducted
by Rev. VI. H. d. Hornady Of Car
son CT y Methodist church assisted
by Rev. Geo. H. Greenfield Of the
Elko Presbyterian church. Mr..
Hornady spoke very feelingly from
the text from Revelation l4:13-
"And l heard a voice from heaven
saying unto me, write, Blessed are
the dead which die in the Lord
from hence forth; Yea saith the
Spirit that they may rest from
labors; and their works do follow
them"
