l|BElEO K|NG;
 IS ADMITTED
Court Holds That Brutal Libel Did Not Involve "Moral Turpitude"
 in MyIius Case.

In decision interpreting authorl- tatively for the first time the term moral turpitude" in the immigra- ton law the Circuit Court of Appeals upheld recently the decision of Judge Moves. admitting to this country Ed ward F. Mylius. the English writer. who h"d served a term in British prison for libeling King George V. of England The libel consisted in publishing falsely the statement that King George had been married to the daughter of Admiral Sir Michael Cuime Seymour before he married Queen Mary.
 Mylius arrived in New York on Sept 22, 1912, and was detained at Ellis Island On writ of habeas corpus he was brought before Judge Moves, who decided that as a libel might be committed unconsciously and in spite of the best efforts to ascertain the truth, its commission could not be cons 'dered as showing moral turpitude" Since the Special Boards of Inquiry could not be ex- pected to go behind the record to consider the special circumstances of each particular case before them, it was impossible for them to exclude Mylius, however heinous the actual libel he had been guilty of. Judge Coxe, of New York, in an opinion, in which Judges Lacombe and Ward concurred, agreed with this reading of the law
 The question:" said Judge Coxe, ''narrows itself down to the inquiry: Does the publication of defamatory libel necessarily involve moral turpi- tude?' We are of the opinion that it does not We of course do not lose sight of the extreme brutality of the libel involving as it does not only the King. but the Queen. her chil- dren. and the daughter of Admiral Seymour. But in construing these laws we should proceed on broad general lines, considering all persons equal before the law. A decision which makes the infamy of the libel de- pendent upon the rank of the per son libeled cannot be defended either in law or ethics. If it would not in | volve moral turpitude' to publish this libel against field laborer in Devon or street sweeper in London. it
 would not involve moral turpitude'
 to publish it regarding the Lord Chancellor or even the King ~''. # "As pointed out by Judge Moves
 editors and publishers have often been convicted of publishing criminal
 libel. who were wholly ignorant of the libel. So, too, corporations have been convicted of criminal libel, but having no souls, it can hardly be said that their acts involve moral turpi~ tude'"

Worship of Heaven and Confuciansm is to be the State Religion
 of China.

PEkING, China. Jan. 30.-The ad- ministration council of China today decided that the worship of the heavens and the religion of Confu- cianism shall be the state religion.
 For several months the Chinese have been troubled to select a re- ligion and many endeavored to have the religion of Jesus Christ made the state religion: others hoped to have religious liberty so that all might select a religion of their own. while the majority were in favor of remaining with the religion of the Chinese which had been used in the country for thousands of years. The bill was prepared by the new p' 'esi- deLt of China

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-American mission societies active in China de clare today that while they had hop ed that the state religion of Concu- cianism would be abandoned, the significance of today's action is but small as the act is merely political and the work of christianizing the heather Chinese would continue.
 Confucianism has been the prevail ing religion of China since the year 468 B. C.. when Confucius added his philosophic teachings to the heaven worship that was then prevalent. it teaches the faith of ancestor worship by the masses of the people and the worship of the spirits by the rulers. The religion degrades womanhood and advocates the intellectual and moral supremacy of man. The Chi nese believe that the spirit~ of the universe and of their ancestors ar, embodied in, certain, idols. that they worship alld. that, ,aA: sickRess and pain comes as a result of actions that have displeased the spirits The Chisi nese gods are found ill almost every Chinese home.

The Daily Alaskan has been eudcworiug for several days to obtain 8 statement from O. L.. Dickcsou. president of the White Pass G Yukon Route, who is a}- SO president of the Atlas Mining company at Wbitehcrse. as to the effect of the war on the copper market on the local mining situa- tlcn here. ATr. pickesou has ahsol- uteIy declined to give any iuforma- ticu whatever pertaining to the To- cal situation at all. until today. when he gave out the fouowiug statement.
 'Naturally depression in the copper market elsewhere through the whole world affects our sttua- ton vitaIly here. We are still op- eratiug, however, and hope to con- unue operations, if possible to ob- tain concessions in other dtrec- Gons 10 offset the heavy loss cs the miue is now undergoing as result of continuation of shipment We have asked for these concessions along he lines of all interested sharing a small part of the burden to tide over the period of depression If this can be brought about the mine can continue and normal con- ditions can be reinstated when the price of copper increases slightly Otherwise.

It would seem this is the wiscst thing to be done, if it can be brought about, In view Of the general depression and the chaotic conditions in the mining world, which is direct result of | the wur-someJhiug that could not 1 be rorseen or prevented, but must be dealt with to meet the conditions, Iir possible. Iuasmuch as cO-called experts and business men heading large industry, in much better | position to judge than we are here, cannot venture a prediction as to which way the copper marbe. will finally go, it would seem the wi52st plan is to at least give all con ccrued in the industry dependent uncn it for revenue, and direct livIi- hood au opportunity 10 each to contribute a small amount, which l in the aggregate may keep the mine going through the period of depression; with, however, the dis ttuct understanding that when cop por goes mp to given point form 1 CT normal conditions will be re- | jasta,cd. For tEc mine, we are willing to cudcayor to work out this IpIan. even to the extent of comtinu- l iua to operate at some loss. For 1 the wilawy, We are willing to cut one rates one dollar and fifty !

For q number of years Lord worked
in the Wilde factory, but having a de-
sire to enter into a commercial life he
bought a business In Catherine street,
which, at the time, was not much
more than q thread and needle store,
being assisted in the purchase by his
employer, Wilde. The business thrived,
adjoining store after store was added
as the business vas enlarged. Perhaps
it is now forgotten that Catherine
street was at that time, a shopping
center and particularly favored by the
good women of Brooklyn of two gener-
ations ago. At all events Lord and
Taylor's became n of the notable
shops, Lord having taken into partner
ship with him q brother-in-law, of the
name of Taylor. Finally the business
growing, the firm erected a large
brown stone building in Grand street
which was considered a palace at the
time. 1t was the boast Of the town.
Still 1t thrived and Lord and Taylor
spread out again by erecting a marble
building quite as large on the corner Of
Broadway and lGrand street, coming
into sharp rivalry with A. T. Stewart
& Company, at the corner of Broad
way and Chambers street. In the
meantime Samuel Lord had become
one of the solid citizens Of New York
and a very rich man for those times.
And, about that time his father-in-law,
In England, now an aged man, failed
In business and the fine house he had

denied and the property was knocked
down to him. The bidder was Samuel
Lord.
The discarded daughter then present.
ed herself to her father and said that
with the authority of her husband her
father was not to leave the house but
must occupy it so long as be lived.
This brought about q reconciliation.

sion which she had adopted after a
brief summers acquaintance with
some actresses who were summering
In Putwold
Because of her ignorance of the
world and its evil ways Rosalind had
brushed aside all tempting pleasures
and thrown herself into her work, for
which she possessed some talent. But
she was weary of 1t. Unknown to her
self. the call OF her blood was for
those simple domestic duties which a
long line of Puritan ancestors had no
bly, fulfilled.
But this offer of Hanford Beeks.
He was a splendid type of young
American. and he was honest in his
desire to make Rosalind happy. She
had been dazzled BY his proposal. and
she had begged for time.
There was one obstacle in the way.
She didn't owe Hanford Beeks.
The dining car was attached at
Springfield. and Rosalind slipped off
her coat and went to dinner. There
was just one available seat in the
crowded car. and that was at a table
where sat a solitary young man.
A waiter drew out her chair and
handed her the menu card. Rosalind
lifted her eyes In one swift appraising
glance of the man who vas calmly eat
ing his soup. She had not noticed him
at first beyond the fact that he had
arisen and sat down after she had
been seated.
1t was a homely countenance. rugged
ana strong as her own New Hampshire
hills. with steady gray eyes and dark
hair that was rusty red at the ends.
1t was the face of a man who would
and could do things, who might sur
mount obstacles. His big brown hands
were capable too. Rosalind looked him
over from the crown Of his well brush.
