Il was natural that Afexicans should

oautiOn. Such conditions always breed

hostile enterprises were liOated there
during the civil war, and later the
Canadians got back at US during the
Fenian troubles. But Il Is clear that
Mexican distrust OF Americans Is older
than any revolution Of recent tfmes

thought out policy to shake free from

that the predominant position OF Amer
leans In Mexico today has been won
''in spite or the win OF the MexIcans.
UndeniabIy straws sometimes show
the way the wind blows. Lately
prominent paper OF the City OF Mexico

upon American residents and tourists
in Mexico. even saying that the gen.
erality Of them are below the Mexican
poems. or slaves, in good breeding. II
is to be hoped that this paper does not
reflect the best sentiment OF the Mexi-
can people; otherwise outsiders may be
cited az moro just In recent book
entitled Mexico In the Twentieth
Century" appears the sentence, "The
history Of the Americans In Mexico Is
history Of which any alien country
might feel proud" This Is an English
writer's opinion and has reference
70 the relations Of American residents
there with "a people strange in re-
ligion. thought and speech" relations
coupled with the Investment OF $780,

The Brenchman who fired two shots
at Major Dreyfus a few weeks ago in
highly sensational way was recently
acquitted in court He declared, and
apparently proved. that not Dreyfus
the man, but Dreyfuslsm the senti,
ment was the object of his attack.
He claimed that his cartridges con-
tanned wax bullets, and the fact that
the injuries inflicted were OF a trivial
nature gives color to this plea. The
scene In the courtroom after the ac-
Quittal shows that the old feeling
against Dreyfus is still strong in
France. Some Of the spectators cheer.
ed and some groaned when the YER
diet was announced. Dreyfus was
present and proclaimed himself limo
cent Of the charge OF treason which
led to hia disgrace and Imprisonment.
Voices that had Eroaned over the YER
dict cheercd Dreyfus, and those which
had cheered before greeted the unfor-
tunate man with groans.
No word OF Dreyfus could now add
weight to the decision Of the highest
French courts as to his guilt. He has
been acquitted. restored to rank and
promoted. Yet there seems to be a
large element in Paris which stIll be-
lieves that Dreyfus attempted to be-
tray his nation to Germany. and the
people composing II win never forgive
the men who championed his cause nor
cease to reprObate the government OH
cials who helped to proclaim his In
nocence and make tardy amends for
bis Disgrace and punishment. This
work win never be undone In all prob
ability. and 90 the anti.Dreyfusites
have nothing to gain In their agitation
except the qualification OF revenge.

Iron aud Wood.

So much has been said Of late re-
garding the depletion OF our forests
that the impression may BE- created
that we are passing into 4 position
unique among nations Of not having
any timber supply OF our own. such
Il distinctly not the case, says the Iron
Trade Review. However serious may
be the present rate Of drain upon our
forests. IL there Is any unIqueness in
our position among nations It Is that
Of still having an immense area OF I'M
touched timber land. II Is not that our
forests, az a natural supply to a M
tion, have become small. but that the
present area is small compared to that
which once existed. We are driven
toward forestry not because the sup
ply Is scant, as such supplies go
throughout the world, but because we
have been tending rapidly toward the
position Of being reduced to the level
OF the older nations.
The talk OF a famine in any commod-
ity Is useful to bring about measures
Of economy and conservation, declares
the Review, and continues:
But as regards either wood or iron in
the United States there Is not the least
occasion for alarm. Scientific forestry
can easily overtake the diEninution which

work to grow for the future vastly

readily sutfices for Germany, while on the
other hand the utilization OF our lower
Grade iron ores can easily supply a great
or quantity OF iron than can possibly be
put into use. with all the growth in popu-
lation which the country Is otherwise ca
pable Of supporting.
IL Is not a question OF famine or ex-
In the one commodity or in the
other. II IL q question of prospective

Anarchy That l. seJust as had.

I
1t seems that the firm OF stockbro-
kers which failed In New York ow-
Ing millions really used a capital Of
only 100000 to manipulate stocks rep
resenting over S1O,O00O0O There was
little real value back OF any Of their
deals. and the large transactions In
which they engaged were the widest
kind OF gambling, even for Wall street.
This Is a condition OF financial anarchy
and Is as destructive OF confidence,
which Is the soul Of business, as an
other kind of anarchy is. or aims to be.
Of property.
Conservative business men. even
those who believe in stock invest
ments, are continually decrying the
wild methods Of speculation which
brought ruin to Brown & Co and
financial loss to their clients. 1t Is
an axiom with conservatives that one
should not risk in stocks money they
cannot afford to loose. The Brown
firm risked but little. yet its patrons
risked and lost millions. Surely no
knot Of investors can drop so much in
one furry without some OF the number
feeling 1t keenly. Here is at least one
field where guarantees Of a fair deal
are needed. And there already exists
one form Of guarantee which eager in
vestors too often overlook-the guar
antee that goes with established repu-
tation. Brokers may be found In every
financial center who draw the line at
methods which II they shall become
general win destroy all confidence and
bring anarchy on all the business
world.

Valuable Food Going to Waste.

During this season of warm spring
rains mushrooms are rapidly growing,
and those familiar with them will avail
themselves of the chance to gather
these dainties for the table. II is a
lamentable fact that SO few people are
acquainted with the different varieties
of mushrooms. Tons of valuable food
ere going to waste each year owing to
Dne ignorance of the people. But If
you are ignorant, let mushrooms alone !
In this connection, some months past
the CENSOR man was discussing mush
rooms with Rev. c. f. Buffers, who is
of the opinion that the Vernon County
Fair Association could do nothing bet
ter at its coming fair than to hold a
mushroom demonstration in the fair
house. The display should be in charge
of some mushroom expert, who thor
oughly understands the subject. Lee
lures could be given instructing how to
distinguish poisonous growths from the
eatabic varieties. We dare say that
not one rerson in ten can tell the diff
ference in this age, while in olden times
everybody knew the value Of the mush-
room as a food.
