A SQUARE DEAL,

For every kith, kin or tribe let us
have square deal. 1t matters not
whether the accused is a Jew, Greek
or Gentle, let justice be done though
the heavens fall. And the only way
to administer justice absolutely and
impartially is by the measure of the
Golden Rule. Just shift places. Place
yourself in the other fellows position
and then treat the other fellow just
as you would have the other fellow
treat you, or as you would be treated

COUNTY OPTION.

Some have attempted to confuse the
voters on the question of County Op.
tion"-and have termed county op-
tionists as prohibitionists. The Pro-
hibitionists are trying to stop the
manufacture, sale or use of liquor in
the state. The County Optionists be-
lieve that the Counties have the right
to vote on the liquor question and de-
eide for themselves. We are living to-
day under County Option Laws. The
recent Supreme Court decision has
had some effect on the rights of GER
tain counties. We do not favor the
right Of persons in other counties to
interfere with the rights of those of
another county.

Gov. Eberhart has decreased the
number of Negro employees in our
state. The positions held by Schuyler
Phillips and r. M. Johnson were given
to white men. 1t is true we have been
recognized by the appointment of a
young man as office boy in the Board
of Control. He has appointed several
of Mr.. Geo. Hoage's friends as dele
gates without funds to Negro Con-
crosses etc. Why did we not get
a Negro girl in the Clerical Force in
the Capitol? Enough were COM
petent, but not wanted. Mr.. Geo.
Hoage the assistant messenger
knows, and the administration is re-
sponsible. Mr.. Billy Williams does
not hold his position on political
patronage, but Geo. claims to be the
republican leader of the state and we
don't expect him to make good, be-
cause he isn't and he can't.

objected to the House resolution au.
thorizing the president to take ac-
tiOn and after a session lasting un-
til after midnight the Senate ad-
journed until noon.
A new resolution drafted by sen
ators, eliminating specific reference
to lluerta, included declaration
that no warlike action towards the
people of Mexico was contemplated
Meantime preparations are going ac-
lively forward for action by the war
and navy departments. The order to
move only waited upon final congress
sional action. ut is reported today
that at conference last night Pres
ident Wilson, Secretaries Daniel,
Garrison and Bryan, General Wood
and other high officials went over
war maps and completed plans for
the seizure of Mexican ports.
Senator Lodge urged the Senate to
the resolution submitted
by him for the revised one brought
in by the foreign relations commit
tee. The Lodge substitute does not
single out particular acts Of Huerta,
but recites many indignities by both
federals and rebels against the
United States citizens.
Senator Lodge defended his reso-
luton at length and was answered
gy Senator Shively who declared
that the resolution woLld mean only
war. No word was received in the
meantime from Admiral Fletcher.

|agreement will be taken New Hav-
en- officials believe that the compact
with the government will be ratified

meeting has been predicted, for many
stockholders who feel aggrieved over
the way things have gone are ex-
pected to voice their opinions. Gov
ernor Morgan G. Bulkeley's atten-
tion was directed to the condition Of
the proxy to be used in the voting.
The blank form sent out by the
company contained a provision which
compelled the person to whom the
proxy was given to vote for the ap-
proval Of the agreement between the
attorney general and the company.

Washington, April 2l Without
waiting for the Senate to act, Pres
ident Wilson early today ordered
Rear Admiral Fletcher to seize the
Vera Cruz Custom house. This order
/ went out when it became apparent
that delay was resulting to Huerta's
advantages. Admiral Fletcher was
also ordered to seize Il large consign-
ment of arms about to be landed at
Vera Cruz. Just how soon this order
can be carried out is unknown anT
is left to the discretion of Admiral
Fletcher. Officials say that the pres
ident has ample authority to act
without congressional approval.
Meantime both the Senate and House
have reconvened and the Senate
went to work on the resolution of
approval. Republican leaders argue
'Hdt llIt plNsiutHl nuu ull5tu luu
hasty action on Congress and de-
bate of several hours is forecast.
The order to Rear Admiral Fletcher
was given at daybreak after the
president and cabinet members had
been in conference over the tele-
phone since 4 o'clock This action
did not become known until several
hours later. The order, it was said,
gave Adrmial Fletcher the widest
latitude, but it is understood that he
must not modest the munitions until
they are landed on Mexican soil.
Word from him Is momentarily eX-
pected. Nothing received up to 1:15.
The seizure of several million
rounds of ammunition consigned to
Huerta to be landed in a few hours
at Vera Cruz is also included in the
presidents plan of reprisal. This be-
came known today and was used to
hasten action by Congress. Every
minute of delay by Congress counts"
said Secretary Tumulty. Ut was even
said that if the Senate delayed too
long in acting on the resolution the
president would order Rear Admiral
Badger to proceed to Vera Cruz and
seize the ammunition when it was
landed Such an order was sent out
in the day as has already been
stated The cabinet again dis
cnssed the crisis at a meeting this
forenoon and it was made plain that
the president approves the resolu-
tion as amended by Senate leaders.

no operations against the Mexican
people are contemplated was said to
