MONROE DOCTRINE QUESTION \

Washington, Feb, Ex-senator Boz
rah OF Idaho, an opponent of the
league OF nations, made public today
open letter to former President
Taft asking whether Mr.. Taft and
other league advocates would object
to the addition Of an amendment TO
the proposed constitution specifically
guaranteeing continued existence Of
the Monroe Doctrine.
Senator Borah quoted te former
president as stating that the league Of
nations saves the Monroe Doctrine, "
and said dispatches from England and
France as well as opinions here took
The opposite view.
Senator Borah quoted provisions
by the arbitration convention

that nothing contained in the
convention should be construed to re-
the United States to depart from

That there Is urgent need for some
state measure looking to the cnre
and correction OF delinquent girls,
for whom at present no provision ~
any kind is made, Is the belief Of
the members OF the New Mexico
State Federation Of Women's Clubs,
which has been pushing the project
OF a state girls welfare board for
four pr five years until such a bill
has finally been introduced in the
legislature with the backing of the
governor.
This measure was strongly urged
by the Federation Council at It's re-.
cent meeting here and Mrs. Rupert
Asplund. former president OF rne
Federation and prominent in rs
work, today reiterated the argu-
ments for the bill and explained he
nature of it.
'The need is plain" said Mrs. AS
plund. There is no way whatsoever
OF caring for such de~linquents. A
few girls have been sent to the re
form school-and sent back. In
many cases judges refuse to ser
tence girls. Two years ago a gill
only Is years old served time in the
jail here until public sent;-
ment was aroused and measures
taken to get her out. In n city
now a probation officer has
two girls in charge waiting to find
a place to send them. /
Under the proposed bill a board
of New Mexico women would be Civ

New York. March 13.-Tex Richard
promoter of the Willard Dempsey
heavyweight championship bout sched-
uled for July 4. laughed heartily today
at Jack Johnson's alleged confession
made in Havana,' that he laid down
in his fight with Jess Willard four
years ago.
'Johnson is discredited and is max

Richard. HE is four flushing, as he
always does, and no decent promoter
can afford to have anything to do with
him. I am sure ] would not. The fight
couldn't have been faxed. 1t went too

CLEVER JAP CHAMP
TO WREsTLE GRANT
Boise Fans Will Be Given Fast
Exhibition Of Jiu Jitsu Art
Brown and White Men Are
Known to Be Fast.

Taro Miyake, champion jfu jitsu
wrestler of the world, will meet Thomas
F. Grant. instructor in the Japanese
art at Camp Lewis, at the Pinney the
atre tonight in finish match for the
championship of the world.
The match will consist of four bouts.
The bouts will probably be of 20 min
utes' duration each unless a fall is Sc
cured.
Jiu jitsu is one of the fastest and
most dangerous styles of wrestling
known, and is full of agonizing trick
holds, flying falls, and shifty leg twists
that keep an audience in constant
state of delight. Japs, in employing
the art in wrestling, use the legs to a
great extent, and also work on the arms
and head.
Thomas F. Grant, who will meet Mi
yake, is the best in the west at the Jap
style of wrestling, and is thoroughly
familiar with all the grueling holds
used. Miyake is considered the peer of
any wrestler in the world at his own
style, and is marvel Of speed and
cleverness. At times during the work
outs of both men at Nick Collins gym
this week, strong men weighing over
200 pounds were like chips in the hands
of these two.
The main event which will probably
be refereed by Nick Collins. will be
different from most matches in that
falls of a pin nature are not necessary,
a fall consisting of a confession from
one of the contestants that he has been
punished enough. The strangle Hold
will not be barred.
The first preliminary will be boat
at wrestling between Vivian Gilbert of
Caldwell and Sailor Jenkins of Merid-
ian. In the second set-to, Kid Mex
and Al Nelson will travel five fast
rounds of jabs and swings In the
semi final, Virginia Kid" will tangle
with young" Latham In a five-round
session of wallops, grunts and foot
work. The main event will go on
promptly at O'clock.

ready to march with him to the reali-
zation Of their common dream.
why should he hesitate to see that
Americas aims be ACCOMPLISHED :?
Were those aims not stated uneuuoi-
vocally from the start? Is the cause
less worthy now that triumph is in
sight? Are those who oppose it now
less the enemies of that cause than
those who were thought lately to op-
pose 1t?
why should any Of the statesmen In
Paris even seek to oppose President
Wilson in having the cause Of justice
upheld? Have their statements NOT
been almost as explicit as his? Have
they not We'd with one another in pro-
claiming that the rights fthe weak
are no less worthy than the rights Of
the strong? How can any of them
claim the privilege of condoning
wrong? Should they attempt to do so.
President Wilson should boldly save
them from themselves.
Wrong is no less wrong because it
happens to-be one of their own num-
Der that is guilty of it. If President
Wilson should by any chance prove
too weak for his trust he will have
all the less excuse because luckily
America is strong enough not to al
law herself to be cheated. She at
any rate, has no need to trouble when
the British lion growls his intimidat-
ing warnings to those who might dis
turb him at his prey. I can not be-
lieve that the president will be weak
or will allow himself to be deferred
from cutting away vicious canker
at the core of the new world order by
the convential diplomatic niceties that
belonged to the order, which the blood
of millions was shed to destroy.
But whether Ireland be heard or not
whether the statesmen at Paris
stand forth as the most conspicuous
failures in history or not-the duty of
Irishmen and the duty OF all lovers of
liberty is clear. That duty is to see
that oversight can not be pleaded as
an excuse.
England tries to bind and gag Ire
land, to throw her into obscurity as
of a dungeon. 1t is our duty to sup
port all who would lend a hand at
loosing her.
We must strive at least to let In
the purifying light, to show Ireland as
she is, struggling ever against the
slavery in which England would con-
fine her, fighting through centuries
