Thereupon one of the newly elected Congressmen from . i 'New"York telegraphed Secretary of Liabor-Davis pro- testing against refusal to admit the girl and informed the Secretary that when he took his seat in Congress "he would open a fight on the Secretary. Replying to the telegram, Mr. Davis set forth all the facts(and: said, . among other things: 3 B . “Ordinarily I am not inclined to coax'a fight, .but . neither do I run away from one when it involvesa duty I should perform. So long as I am Secretary of Labor I . shg]l.continue to enforce the laws enacted by Congress 1 andrthis will be true-particularly ‘of laws intended to ' protect the health of the people of this country against loathsome contagious diseases.” S 8 'As the whole subject of immigration is one of live i mteqest,_the public will wait with interest the outcome * ?f the fight after the new Congressman. takes his seat - in the next Congress. ! f—§ ‘ LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE { : - Will Hays gives as reason for his pardon of Fatty Ar- buqkle, that when a boy his father gave him a Bible, in which: he'wrote the belief that it:would be Will’s rule of copdqct.
