PANKHURST 5. IS BEING HELD British Militant Suffragist Arrives In The U. S. A. "And Finds Trouble At Once. IS NOW AT ELLIS ISLAND Immigration Officials Refuse Be Rushed Into Decision On Case. To URGES CITIZENS TO WORK THE ROADS COUNTY ROAD SUPERVISOR WANTS THE THOROUGH FARES IMPROVED. Washington, Oct. 20. Immigration Commissioner Caminetti today declined to release Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, British Militant suffragist, on bond from the Ellis Island immigration station, New York, pending final adju tication of? her appeal from the deportation order issued yesterday by a special board of inquiry. Her case will be taken, up for mally tomorrow morning by Commis sioner Caminetti and it is said a definite decision on her release or deportation may be reached during the day. Commissioner Caminetti said today that his desire was "not to be, rushed into a decision of a case nationally and internationally important," but that he had done and would do all in his power to facilitate its determination. Unpre cedented finally to dispose of the case were made by the immigration offi cials in "clearing the decks" for posi tive action tomorrow morning. Counsel for Mrs. Pankhurst were ac corded an informal hearing of several hours today by Commissioner Caminett and Dr. A. W. Parker, chief of the law division of the immigration bureau. The commissioner in accounting for a hear ing held on Sunday, said his only rea son was to facilitate as much as possi ble this proceeding. The question of whether Mrs. Pankhurst should be ad mitted or deported was a subject of ab sorbing interest to many in government circles. It became known tonight that a great many high officials favored ad mitting her, not because of any sympa thy for the individual or her cuase, but on the ground that the principle of tree speech should be maintained. Attorneys for Mrs. Pankhurst direct ed their efforts today chiefly toward ob taining her temporary release from cus tody at Ellis Island pending considera tion of the case, in order that she might fulfil lecture contracts. They contended that not only Mrs. Pank hurst's personal rights were being in vaded by her detention longer than was absolutely necessary, but that important and substantial property rights of the alien and of citizens of this country were being paced in jeopardy. Commissioner Camietti promptly made it clear, however, that he could not be rushed into a decision because of the money involved in Mrs. Pank- hurst's engagements. That, ' he said, was entirely aside from the real issue, i. e., whether the British militant was entitled under the law to enter the United States. He refused for this rea son to hear Frank S. O'Neil, as counsel for the management of the Madison Square Garden, N. Y., where Mrs. Pankhurst is advertised to speak to morrow night. Mr. O'Neil then en tered an appearance as a representative of Mrs. Pankhurst. Just before the hearing began there came, by special delivery mail, the of ficial record of proceedings beforethe board of special inquiry at New York Commissioner Caminetti and Doctor Parker studied the record before the ar rival of Herbert R. Reeves, engaged by Mrs. 0. H. P. Belmont, of New York. to represent Mrs. Pankhurst, and F. S. O'Neil. The contents of this record had been unknown, as under the law proceedings at Ellis Island were secret. To what she termed the "star chamber proceed ing." Mrs. Pankhurst had objected. She also protested because she was not al lowed to be represented at the hearing by counsel and to the consideration given by the special board of a "certai n document," to which she was not give n access. (By. R. E. Snowdon.) The governor of the State has issued aa proclamation making November the 5th and 6th Good Roads Days. Let every citizen of Craven county turn out on those days and do what he can to improve the roads in this county. This county has thousands of acres of land that have never been cultivated by the hand of man; some of them as fertile as the famous delta soil, that are idle because there is no adequate means of transportation from them to the rivers and railroads and because they lack drainage. With good highways will come more farmers. No idle land and therefore better co-operation in drainage and better schools; everything that makes life more worth while living. Good roads mean double the value of your present lands not only in selling value but also in increased profits.. To gain such benefits will cost money and work, not merely voting a few cents tax, but putting the shoulder to the wheel and urging forward the wheels of progress. Let every man and woman who wishes to give the children an equal chance with the children of other sections, come out and, by work and encourage ment, show that you are in earnest. There are plenty of holea to fill, plenty of trees to cut to let the sun and wind in to dry the roads and plenty of ged like a statesman irom the vreight rate controversy, and he be-lieves the question will be settled satisfactor ily to all fair-minded men. He com mended Chairman Travis and the Corporation Commission for their good work. "The currency bill will be pushed through Congress at the extra session or pretty soon after the regular session convenes, ana tne senior senator anticipates no great trouble in the great legislative body's ability to pass a bill satisfactory to all con cerned." Diarrhoea Quickly Cured. "I was taken with diarrhoea and Mr. Yorks, the merchant here, persuaded me to try a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. After taking one dose of it I was cured. It also cured others that I gave it to," writes M. E. Gebhart, Oriole, Pa. That is not at all unusual. An ordinary attack of diarrhoea can almost invariably be cured by one or two doses of this remedy. For sale by all dealers. (Adv.)
