LONDON, June 26.-On the
charge that he did traitorously
contrive and intend to aid the
enemy" Sir Roger Easement to-
day faced a jury in his trial for
life in the great London law
courts.
England's first high treason
trial, with two exceptions, for So
years drew an enormous vari-
peopled crowd in historic Fleet
street and around the ancient
law courts many hours before the
trial was scheduled to commence.
Not since Parnell, Irish party
leader in parliament, successfully
defied the London Times, in
1887. to prove charges of traitor
GUS conduct against him and thus
put dhe party and great sec
ton oS. the Irish people on trial,
has such British public interest
been lent to a law proceeding in
volying Ireland.
Conscientious objection to cap
ital punishment does not enter
into the psychology of British
jurors, 1t was explained to the
United Press in court today. Brit
ish law calls upon the jury mere
ly to decide the guilt or innocence

bility for the sentence then
passes to the judge or judges.
Accompanied by a single guard,
the prisoners entered the court
from a door at the side. Every
eye in the chamber followed the
tall, lean and almost gaunt fig
ure of Easement as he stepped to
his place and was seated after he
had swiftly bowed toward the
Justices bench.
Not awed in the least, the not
ed defendant quickly looked
about the room and smilingly
nodded to several acquaintance.
He then picked up large note
pad and awaited proceedings.
His co-defendant, Daniel Julian
Bailey. looked neither right nor
left. He almost forgot the for
mality of bowling to the bench,
and after quickly nodding his
head sat down and folded his
arms, in which position he re-
NAMED.
In firm voice. Easement
pleaded not guilty before Chief
Justice Reading and Associate
Justice Avery and Harrige.
The. jury was obtained in less
than an hour.

If MEXICO
INSISTS---
BY the Editor

IT If Mexico insists on going to war with
~. the United States the American people
will pick up the gauntlet regretfully but with
stern firmness to see the business through.
We say regretfully because the mass of Amer
leans recognize in the MeXcans A PEOPLE
WHO KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO. For
nearly 400 years they have been the victims Of
kings, bestial mobiles, money grabbers, land
owners, foreign capitalists and every educated
native freebooter who was able to raise himself
above the rest in that land of richness. If
not written principle of government it was
an understood rule that the people were to be
kept down, deprived of education, held in a
woke that was not far from slavery.
IT IGNORANCE has been the direct result
" appalling national IGNORANCE and
it's TWIN DEVIL, FANATICISM! The Mex
lean, in his ignorance, cannot understand, can
not realize the benevolent attitude of this ma
ton towards his country for three long, hard,
trying years AS a people, we don't want to
fight and kill Mexicans. As people we sym
pathze with them in their efforts to rise to
civilization by overthrowing, in blood and suf
fcring. the things that make for ignorance,
poverty and degradation.
1T AS president of the well-wishing Ameri-
IL, can people, Woodrow Wilson has kept
the hands of other powerful nations off the
MeXcans-has kept our dogs of war leashed

capitalistic freeboOters shrieked at him to let
them loose The United States could have in

ing and praying that Mexico would rise by her.
self from the flames of revolution to peace, to
purified nationalism, to realization Of her re-

IT History will praise our patience and laud
~ our good intentions. But MeXico's lead
ers for the moment-her native freebooters of
the day, Carranza, Villa, Trevino and the rest
are driving the ignorant people to the preci-
pice. For the sake of power and pelf, they are
playing politics with the flesh and blood and
souls of their countrymen.
1T We have been patient to the end. We
~, can do no more. If we must fight, we
will fight and we will not cease until the pac-
ification of Mexico and the peace of our own
border is assured. AS people we go into
this war with no lust. We covet no territory.
we will kill with no joy. Duty alone spurs
us to whatever now comes. And God help us
