EXPLAINING LAFoLLETTE.

Q ENATOR LAFOLLETTE once confessed that the
y ambition of his youth was to be an actor and enjoy
his last ditch fight against the war resolution when that
is remembered In spite of the fact that he has been one
of the most potent forces in modern politics. he has always
been considerable of poser In his attitude of high pac-
ed foe Of he held the stage to the very last minute
while the whole world looked on.
For man of his temperament there may have been
certain amount compensation in that one fact but it is
undcnabe that for the rest of us there was essential paho
if not tragedy. in that sturdy little frame surmouned with
the leonine head the well modulated voice complained
81 had supposed until recently, that it was
the duty of senators and representatives to vote
and act their convictions questions coming
before them Quite another doctrine has been
proposed by the newspapers OF the country.
1t is the doctrine of standing behind the P:esi-
dent without inquiry TO whether he is right
or wrong"

Conditions Are Better,
tsr MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL lsAsso WIRE,

Naco, Ariz., June 21.-The Can
anea Consolidated Copper company
at Cananea, Sonora, so miles south
of here. pulled fires from its smell
ters and mills and suspended oper-
ations today. Hundreds of Ameri-
cans are now en- route to the border
in automobiles, Some sixty arrived
by train late this afternoon. A spec
ial train is to leave Cananea at six
tonight bringing out all the Ameri-
cans. General Evans of the company
is in Cananea and will remain until
all the employees get out. There mas
been no rioting as yet, but an out
break Is feared at any moment
The shutdown of the mines and re-
duction works. which employed some
ten thousand men, is due to a dis
agreement with the Mexican govern
ment which ordered that American
workmen be replaced by Mexicans.
Increased taxes and tariffs on i'm
ports, it is said, made it impossible
for the company to operate at prof
it.
Negotiations with Mexico City have
been In progress for some time, but
thus far without avail. The shut
down will cause famine in the camp
shortly and riots are almost inevi-
table.
American troops are on duty here
to prevent disorder and cavalry is
patrollng the line east and west Of
Naco.
The Cananea Consolidated is prob
ably the largest producer of copper
in Mexico. All of its product is ship
ped to the United States.

Persistent Demonstrations
Against the Women PicketS
Cause Peace Officials to
Take Hand in Situation,
RESERVES CALLED OUT
TO KEEP CROWD MOVING
Mrs, Richardson, a Washing
ton Woman, Leads a
Charge; Several Objection
able Banners Are Destroyed,

lsN MORNING JoJNh l. sPgG LHAsGD wlRHl
Washington. June 21.--Persistent
demonstrations against the women
suffrage pickets in front of the main
gates of the White House caused the
police to take a hand in the situation
late today. They guarded the women,
censored their riot-inciting banners,
and met with such success that when
the treasury and the state, war and
navy buildings turned out their 10,-
600 employees to pass along Penn
sylvania avenue there was not rip
pie of hostility.
Reserves from half a dozen pre-
cincts patrolled the pavement in
front of the presidents mansion and
kept the crowd moving.
The activity of the police, who ar
being demolished yesterday as the
Russian mission was approaching the
White House and twice today appar
emily solved the problem growing
out of President Wilson's refusal to
make martyrs" of the women by
ordering them removed.
Women Destroy Banners.
Early in the day crowd of several
hundred watched two men tear from
its wooden frame canvas sign SINH
lar to the one used yesterday declar-
ing to the Russian mission that Presi .
dent Wilson and Elihu Root, the
special ambassador to Russia, are de-
ceiving Russia in calling America a
democracy. Later at the lunch hour
a much larger crowd, led by Mrs. ID.
w. Richardson, a Washington woman,
| ners displayed by the so-called senti-
nels before the gates.
In both cases the crowds were good
natured and although sufficient force
| was used to snatch the banners away,
none of the bearers was injured. Mrs.
Richardson was taken in charge by
the police but later released.
Police Adopt New Plan.
After the second demonstration the
police adopted their new plan. They
escorted banner bearers to the White
House with suffrage colors and de-
vices the women have displayed with
out protest for months, kept a line of
reserves along the avenue, and made
the crowd move on, warning passersby
! who showed too much interest to let
the banners alone. But when two
bearers left the women's party head
quarters with the inscription address,
ed to the Russians painted on new
canvas the police did not wait for the
crowd. A lieutenant in uniform and
several plain clothes men quickly
stripped it from its frame.
Tonight just before the depart
ments closed the suffragists appeared
with a new banner bearing a quota
ton from President Wilson's war
speech to congress.
During the afternoon when the
crowds were hurrying home President
Wilson left the White House for an
automobile ride. His car passed
through a side gate and he got out
almost unobserved.
