Looks Like a Truce in Mexico.

troops have been moving back from the front for

should respect title transmitted by Huerta. But
without acknowledging the validity Of Carbajal 5
itnure OF office he could still treat with the latter
or some Of his adherens for peaceful transfer of
control at the capital. Taking Mexico City 10y ne

strengthen Carranzas position, compared TO that

CONDEMNS PARADE ORDINANCE

To the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The recent ordinance relating
to parade on Fifth ay. is so grotesque-
y insulting to women that surely no
honest man can fail to see the inJus-
tice and recognize the dangers to the
diSfranchised.
Or course, as the "antis" say. our
not having the ballot may help US when
we ask the pertinent question. Wv ny
does the suffrage parade interfere with
business any more than paradeS Of
high and mighty muck-a-mucks"
Perhaps honest men. who pride
them selves on the American woman 5
dign;fed battle for the ballot. will
make good their boast that they will
see fair play for her in her helpless
political position. Dat If all these things
fail cannot women far and near make
their parade i'm 1915 religious parade
and walk Oh Fifth az. on Sunday:
Surely their cause is holy enough 20
sanctifY the march. No man or woman
secs in the gaudy display OF iinery on
Easter any sacrilege. Why, then,
should not our women, in plain white.
throng the broad avenue in a magni t.
cent and solemn protest against injuS-
tice and with hopeful hearts trust that
.hc time is near when good men will
see that equality for all is the highest
religion or earth and that BY their bal
lots they will announce to the world
that the Empire State will in 1915 be
stepping stone in progress, not a

PROHIBITION IN THE NAVY
Secretary Dsniels's Order Upheld on
Several Counts.
To III Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: \ good deal of trash has lately
been printed in the papers directed
against Secretary Danielss order
abolishng wine messes on board
naval vessels. Some of the fulmina-
tons have come from men who are
pccuniarily interested in liquor sell
ing; others from habitues of clubs
whose noses have tendency to be-
come red; and others still from be-
lated individuals who do not or will
not see that all business. governmental
and otherwise. demands more and
more abstention from spirituous
liquors. Much of this opposition 70
the order is Fictitious and does not
proceed from naval officers them
selves Osll of them at least. for
many officers are no doubt glad to be
afforded good excuse for not vast
ing money on wines to be guzzled by
foreign visitors, whose Continental
cOnvivial customs afford no criterion
for the new Americansm.
Ii Is prepOsterous to impute 70 Sec
rotary Daniels political motives in
this action as the growing of the
liquor crowd. which swings many
votes, testiheS. II he did have such
motive would 1t not be better to
be right with the Anti-Saloon League
than wrong with the liquor vendors
and users? However. it is this point
TO which | would like to call special
attention public opinion has long
since demanded the abolition OF the
grog ration for the enlisted men OF
the navy. and why then tolerate the
use OF liquor aft in the wardrooms ?
1t is poor rule which won't work
both ways. The spectacle Of marine
officer holding up bluejacket at Il
navy yard gate and feeling his blouse
for whiskcy bottle and then going
back TO the wardroom to deal out
liquor 70 his messmates is enough 10
make a COW laugh in deriSion. II
liquor IS bad for the jackie forward
IT Is bad for the captain aft, who has
far heavier responsibilities resting
on him, and the same rule should APP
ply 10 both. We believe tim, the
great majority OF naval officers are
high minded and temperate men and
are willing to deny themselves alec
hollc indulgence tcvcn II helpcd there
to by sccrctarial ordcrl in order TO
be IN line with the reasonable restric
tons put upon the habits Of the
Jacklcs on the berth deck. To allow
indulgence nft while prohibiting !,
forward Is simply to create or main
tain social class distinction in the
navy and that Is the plain English
of It for no military reason or con
sideratlon Of rank justidcs such a
distinction.

Horace II. LurtOn.

Horace II. LurOn did not sit upon the Supreme
Court bench long enough to get iEto the gallery
of great Supreme Court justices Time is essential
in building up reputation in that court. Most Of
the men who have eXerted exceptional influence
chief justice and associate justices served
terms of twenty-five years or over In that cate
cory are Marshall. fancy Story. Miller and Har.
Ian. Mr. Lurton entered the court at an advanced
age and in poor health and served but five years.
His brief career recalls that of Howell +. Jackson,
a fellow TenneSSeean whom he succeeded as cir
cult Judge. Jackson. man of fine capacity was
also handicapped by illness, and died after two
years service.
Justice Iurton was retiring conscientious and
modest. He did his work steadily and thoroughly
under adverse circumstances and will be remem-
bered as an efficient and faithful judge. There
was touch Of historical romance in his appoint
ment by Republican President. As youth he had
been one of Morgan's raiders. and taken prs-
oner when Morgan invaded Indiana and Ohio. His
health was poor then as well as later in life. and
his mother got through the lines and personally
requested President Lincoln to allow her to take
her son home on parole Lincoln released him
from prison. More than forty years later he was
named by a Republican President member Of
the highest federal court. His experience was a
striking evidence of the knitting together again of
the bonds which the Civil War temporarily sev-
cred.
