SEW \UD, VI.ASK A. SATURDAY, MARCH 11, 1916._
The United States has displayed extraordinary patience towards Mexico
but the limit seems to have been reached. President Wilson has been blam
ed by his enemies, not by his friends, for pursuing a lenient policy under the
most serious provocation but he has probably acted wisel}. If now at last
he is forced to send American troops across the border to punish the murder
ers of American citizens the world will know that he has endured all that
the head of a great country could endure without dishonor. V ilia in all
pro ability counts upon the hatred of Mexicans tor the Gringocs to create
trouble that would favor his cause. He, no doubt, believes that the side which
is aided by American troops will lose support and in this latter fact lies a
danger which may make the invasion of Mexican territory a much more seri
ous event than it now appears to be. There was no sign irom Carranza
yesterday that he would give his consent to the use of American troops in his
territory and it is quite possible that C arranza might resent the invasion.
If President Wilson did not see in the invasion the possibility of opposition
from a greater force than that under the command of Villa he would hardly
have thought eight thousand men necessary. Who knows that yesterday’s
news does not mean the beginning of a really serious conflict?
What the deuce is going to happen to all the “independent” supportei*s
of Wiekershani? The Delegate might at least have told them that he was
about to go over bodily to the regular Republicans. Shall we now see
phenomenal or miraculous metamorphoses of moose Into elephants - and
donkeys in the territory ?
The election today of delegates to the Republican convention may mean
more in the politics of the territory than such elections usually have. There
is now, very dearly, a big fight on over the question of making Mr. Wicker
sham the candidate of the regular party. The delegate seems to have crossed
the Rubicon and burned his ships behind him. He has evidently cast in his
lot with the regular Republican party to sink or swim and, mirabile dictu, as
the Yukon Natives say, his chief supporter seems to be the man whom one
would least expect of ever being on the side of Wickersham — Louis P.
Shackleford. What are we coming to, anyway. Taking this fact and the
European and Mexican and Chinese wars into account we can well believe
that this old world has gone topsy turvy

REV. RICHMOND TO
FACE 65 MORE CHARGES
(Special to Gateway by United Tress)
PHILADELPHIA, March I.—Aftcr
nearly sixteen months of violent con
troversy which has raged through ec
clesiastical and civil courts and at
tracted countrywide attention the
Rev. George Chalmers Richmond,
Philadelphia’s militant clergyman, to
day is still preaching in St. John’s
Episcopal Church, despite the efforts
of Bishop Rhinelander and the Pro
testant Episcopal Church to remove
him. He has been officially suspend
ed from the ministry for one year,
but continues to defy and attack the
Bishop.
The militant rector, who is 46 and
who in 1912 stumped Pennsylvania
for Colonel Roosevelt, will again ap
pear before Chancellor Budd some
time this month to answer 65 new
charges in a new church court pre
sentment. Among the charges are:
conduct unbecoming a clergyman,
violation of ordination vows, criminal j
libel and testifying under oath” at his
last trial, which is considered im
moral under the practices established
in the diocesan court.
The controversy gained national
| interest in 1914 when Richmond
granted Mrs. Sarah A. Conboy, a
labor delegate, permission to address
his congregation on conditions among
the textile strikers at Atlanta, Ga.
Bishop Rhinelander, who previous to
this incident was charged by Rich
mond as “favoring capitalistic inter
ests,” took exception to Mrs. Con
boy’s appearance in a church pulpit.
Richmond submitted to the ruling but
attacked Bishop Rhinelander in a
letter.
