Can any sane person tell US
what on earth the newspapers
of the country have to dc
with the prosecution of cases
before a court? 1t is more often
the newspaper is ordered by the
court to keep it's hands off. 1t is
the duty of the officers elected
for that purpose to prosecute
cases before the courts, and
merely the province of the news.

place. Scoggin confessed his
guilt, was arrested and is in Jail
without bond. We understand
he is even being held incom.
Does this look like he will not
be prosecuted?
Since ScOggin is in Jail without
bond and has confessed his guilt,
pray tell US what newspaper is
to do, unless there was paper
in the county like Walkers to
which he could pass some of the
stolen money?

HUERTA ILL AND
ALLOWED TO GO
TO HIS HOME

Washington. Nov. 7.-Gen. Victoriano
Huerta. the Mexican revolutionist, who
has been a prisoner at the Fort Bliss
military reservation for the past four
months, is in a critical condition.
Instructions were sent TO the United
States marshal at San Antonio. Tex,
Saturday to permit his immediate remov-
al from Fort Bliss TO a hospital or to
Huerta's home at Ell Paso. where he can
be under the care of his family.
1t became known here Saturday that
should Gen. Huerta recover, the govern
ment will press the charge of conspiracy
against him to the limit. Within the
past week damaging evidence against
him has been secured.
Ii was thought at one time that Huerta
would be released as soon as it became
apparent that the Carranza regime had
established a stable government. but the
new developments materially alter the
status of his case.

,be Weekly Nation made an interesting
revelation.
Gen. Joffres visit" it says, has
been one of the personal sensations OF

find a strategist; they saw, rather, the
orator and enthusiast. 1t would not be

The Daily Chronicle editorially points
out the various possibilities or the SIT
nation: First, the probability of a
marked addition to the importance OF
the general staff in London, the ten
dency of which would be to separate
clearly the administrative responsible
tiles OF the war minister from the
strategic responsibilities of the CHIEF
of staff, and make the war minister
role different from that which Earl
Kitchener hitherto had filled. Second
ly, it added, there was a remote pos
sibility Of some kind of joint staff be-
ing constituted by the allies at Paris
for the purpose Of pooling military
councils. IF this were DONE says
the Chronicle. 1.-The head Of the Brit
ish section would manifestly occupy
a very important position.
Thirdly adds the Chronicle, lit is
possible that, in view of the import
ance OF our near eastern armies, some
higher eastern command might be
constituted to coordinate their action.
For such q post Lord kitchener's pc
culiar authority in Oriental matters
might be thought to mark him out.

issued later Saturday night:
The statement that Earl Kitchener
has resigned his post as secretary OF

turn, though temporary. of the court,
and the arrival of the occasion of the
long looked for coronation ceremony
The grounds around the station COM
pound and the streets along the route
of the imperial procession were pro-
fusely decorated and were thronged
with citizens eager TO worship the i'm
perial sanctuary and welcome the i'm
perial cortege.
On the station platform were pres
ent a number OF peers residing in
kioto, high prefectural and municipal
officials and military officers, repre-
sentatives Of various administrative
and business corporations and promi-
nent citizens who accorded hearty
welcome to the imperial party.
The imperial sanctuary and the i'm
perial cortege arrived at the station
amid the impressive strains of the
Kimigayo. or national anthem, and
salutes fired by artillery in the neigh
boring park.
The sacred emblems of sovereignty
were slowly borne on the shoulders of
villagers. Then, with the Emperor
just behind and his suite directly af-
ter him, the procession proceeded to
the imperial palace through streets
lined by troops and people. The i'm
perial sanctuary was taken to the
Shunkoden hall especially erected as
the site for the reception of the
'sanctum sanctorun" in the COM
pound of the Kioto palace. The route
of the cortege led through a great
green arch erected by the municipal
ity.
The repose of the imperial shrine
consisting of the sacred mirror was
celebrated with an impressive re-
ligious ceremony conducted by the
court ritualists in the presence of the
coronation commissioners. The ritu-
alists made offerings before the altar
the chief ritualist reading Shinto
prayers. Then followed the worship
by the Emperor and Empress, who
were represented in this case by
chamberlains and also worship by the
members of the imperial family.
In observance of the coronation the
city Of Kioto presented the Emperor
with picture books containing the
works of IS contemporary artists, a
cushion designed by Sekka Kamisaka,
and a flower vase made at the Prefec-
tural Ceramic Institute. The city also
presented to the Empress a gold lac
quered box. two rolls Of fine brocade
with patterns of pine trees and
phoenix and Ave rolls of white silk
damask with patterns of chrysanthe-
mum flowers (the imperial crest) en-
hrodered in deep blue.
