Mr.. Mattjoy said this morning that
he was an interpreter in the city Of
Mexico under Diaz. and also inter
prefer for the United States govern
ment at Ell Paso, and along the border.
Probably one OF the most interest
ing pieces of work Mattjoy had, was
that when he was with the Mexican
secret service in Mexico City. His
visits to the foreign capitals and his
interpretations there have given him
intimate knowledge of the languages
and customs OF six different countries,
and he has fund of information and
stories. He interpreted for some time
in Mexico City for tourists.

ALLEGED MURDERER
ARRESTED AT POCA
Thomas r. Broaan Accused
OF Having Killed George
Taylor at BarbourvIIIe, w.,
In July OF last year

Pocahontas was thrown into a
stage of excitement yesterday,
when Bert Oatron, Chef of Police
of Barbourville, KY, arrested
Thomas F. Brogan, alias Thomas
NJ. Gibson, on the main street of
the mining town, on u charge Of
murder. The chief took no
chances in making the arrest and
Brogan offered no resistance.
Thomas f. Brogan, a farmer
of near Barbourville, and George
Taylor, also a farmer in that ter
ritory, it seems were a little at
outs, having been in a law suit,
and one day in July. 1913, they
met just outside the business
section of Barbourville. just
what posed is not known, ex-
cept that Brogan stabbed Taylor
about fifteen times, having al
most severed his arms and legs
from his body with a knife. Two
men were passing and did what
they could to stop the unfortunate
affair, but Brogan, being about
six feet six inches tall and weigh
ing about 200 pounds, did Consid-
era bic damage after they got hold
of him. Taylor, being very
small man, was not able to de.
fend himself, and died from his
injuries some four days later.
The Barbourville chef of police
who made the arrestat Pocahon-
tas, says Brogan made a wonder
full escape, having gotten away
himself and later moved his fam
lily away without being caught.
He moved to Pocahontas several
months ago and at the time of his
arrest was living with his family
Ia wife and five children at that
place under the name of Thomas
NJ. Gibson, and was working for
the Pocahontas Galleries Com.
pany in the mines.
Brogans has made many friends
IN Pocahontas. He is of a good
family and owns a good farm near
Barbourville. He says he will go
back without requisition papers
and will take his family with
him, leaving Pocahontas on No. ,
via Norton today.
1t seems that Brogan had writ.
ten to some one around Barbour.
vile and the chief saw the ad-
dress of the letter, came to Poca-

upon Brogan on the street and
made the arrest. BrOgan has

Mr.. President, Honorable
Judges, Ladies and Gentlemen
/, the negative speaker say
Immigration should not be pro.
hibited, but will admit it nigh,
do to restrict it, and that is all
that ever has been spoke of in
Congress.
There is q big difference be-
tween Restrict and Prohibit
Prohibit means to cut out entire
ly, allow no one to come; Re.
strict only means to cut out the
lower class of civilization. such
as the Negroes, Chinese and Hin.
docs, of which might be consider.
ed an injury to this country.
To restrict immigration has
been a sub ject in Congress for
many years and it has only had
all effect on the Chinese, when
they first began to argue this
subject in Congress, THAT is ia
Restrict lmmigration,) they
claimed that immigration was 50
great that it would ruin the pro.
gress and growth of this country
if it was not stopped, but it has
not been stopped, and our coun.
try is still progressing at great
er rate than ever dreamed of by
the brightest minds that have
lived in days gone by. OF course
the population of our country is
very dense, better than ninety
million, but history tells us that
there is land enough, untouched
by the pillow, to yield food for
many million more, and our gov
eminent freely gives n home
stead to any one who will move
upon the land and cultivate it {;
and we also find in history that a
large part of the growth of our
country is due to the common
la borers of Europe-some of whom
are skilled mechanics, others
who dig railroad beds and canals,
others who mine, others pull the
coke from the ovens Others who
throw it into the furnace which
melts the iron, if this were not
true IT, would not be in history /;
and all of you know that where
immigrants are the most dense
there's where our country is pro-
crossing the most. Take New
York, the empire state, noted
because of her great wealth, it is
head quarters for immigrants,
there's where our country is the
richest, there's where immi.
grants are the thickest. and New
York is the State that has pro-
crossed the quickest.
