lCDlcdSO 1lihS>, OIL
Reports received at the state department
say that recently the Mexican authorities
returned herd of stolen cattle to the own
ers in Texas, and took steps to punish the
thieves" If that fact becomes generally
known among the greasers, the authorities
Immediately responsible for it, and their
chief, Diaz, will be very soon taking steps"
out of the country. Diaz is DESTROYS of i'm
pressing the American government with a
belief in his ability to control and punish
the border thieves. 1t is possible that the
cattle in question were stolen under special
orders, for the purpose of being returned.
But it will not do to carry such things too
far. Mexican patriots will not be easily
persuaded TO tolerate even the pretense of
interfering with the sacr. d right of robbery,
which is one of the fundamental principles
OF their unwritten constitution.
