London, June 10.-Sylvia Pankhurst t
was not even permitted to approach
Westminster Abbey tonight to inter-
view Premier Asquith. The proposed
visit was arranged for some days ago
by Miss Pankhurst and other militant
leaders. Last night she decided that
she would be carried shoulder high
in procession, as she is not consid-
cred strong enough to bear the strain.
Before the procession had gone a
mile, Miss Pankhurst was arrested
for the eighth time since she was
sentenced to six months imprison-
ment for melting a mob by language
in Hyde Park, and conveyed to Hol-
loway Jail. The procession struggled
on without a leader and by the time
it reached the Strand was dispersed
by the police.

The deceased was aged 40 years 0

July 18th 1864. He spent the greater
part of his life there but for the past
three or four years he has been employed
in the Veneer Mill at Orleans.
He was once married, but later di-
voIced. Three children were born to
this union two of whom, Ralph and Ber-

Prouty A Republican

Mr.. Prouty, in answer to a query by
the chairman of the Progressive party
state committee asking if he will consent
to the use of his name by that party as
candidate for United States senator from
Vermont, replies: 81 know no reason
why, if the Progressive party of Vermont
without solicitation on my part, sees fit
to support me for United States senator,
shoul object Whereuponit is blazed
forth in newspaper headlines, "Prouty is
a Progressive" No, he isn't. He is a
Republican, and not long since clearly
said so. The Progressives do not claim
him as one of their party. They recog-
nize in Mr.. Prouty, however, a man of
conspicuous ability who is liberal and
progressive enough to suit them, and so
ignoring partisanship, many of them are
rendering him their support OF course
he dosn't decline it. No man so placed
would. The tender of support is made
Internationally and received in the same
way. If Mr.. Prouty goes to the Senate
it will be without solicitation on his part
and because a majority of the voters
want him. Men of any party or of all
parties will be free to vote for him, if their
judgment so directs them Randolph

War With Huerta

We prefer to designate thus the present
threatening relation of the United States
and affairs in Mexico. The United States
has no i'll feelings toward Mexico, or for
the Mexican people. We have simply
come to the place where we can olonger
ignore the insulting attitude andrepeated
otfenses of the usurping general who has
claimed control of affairs in the Mexican
capital and in adjacent territory since
the murder of President Maderio Febru-
airy %, 1913.
President Wilson will have the full and
hearty support of Congress and the
American people in the use of the army
and navy of the United States. Foreign
nations will accord moral support in
what they have long insisted would be a
performance of duty on the part of this
nation.
Huerta, the dictator of Mexico, has
deied the United States and has refused
bluntly to salute the Stars and Stripes.
This formal ceremony was demanded by
President Wilson as an apology to the
United States for repeated and studied
affronts and insults heaped on the rep
resentatives of this government by the
underlings OF the Mexican provisional
president.
On Monday. Mr.. Wilson, laid the entire
affair before Congress and that body has
given the President plenary power to
deal with the troublesome Mexican prob
lem as he sees fit. This was done by
Congress when the Spanish war broke
out and Mr.. Mckinley was given a free
hand to proceed as circumstances war
ranted.
Instead of burning the gunpowder as
Mr.. Wilson demanded, Huerta and his
advisers continue to quibble and explain
and beg the question, and there is moth
ing now left for the United States gov
eminent to do but to take Immediate
action that the nations honor and dignity
may be maintained and that our neigh
Dor on the south may be taught lesson
in good manners.

feet if his men did not stop firing. The
American forces had orders to fire only
to defend themselves.
