Suddenness of War.
rom the New York Tribune.

=
The war is a startling and should be
an instructive and convincing reminder
of the maliSn and unexpected possibii-
ties which necessarily Turk among the
tangled and jarring nations of the world
and of the profound wisdom of holding
aloof therefrom to the utmost possible
extent and of adopting every practicable
safeguard against being involved in the
rivairies and animosities of alien lands
We have already remarked upon the sud
denness and uneXpectedness of this war
Equally noteworthy is the possibility of
its almost indefinite extension AS our
London correspondent without exaggera-
ton observes, "Armageddon may come
In the course of few months" Turkey,
weak at sea. but mighty on land may
retaliate upon those who are cynically
conserving to her spoiaton by invading
Greece. which she claims to have as good
right to do as Italy has to invade
Turkey. Would the powers endure that
Austria, who set in Bosnia the example
which Italy is following in Tripoli, may
make her long contemplated rush to-
ward Salonik: and Bulgaria and Servia
may grab at Macedonia; and so on I'M
til. all Turkey having been looted, the
spoilers quarrel among themselves over
the spoils.

from all the other powers OF Europe,
that intervention would be welcomed
or tolerated. Every indication points TO
a speedy settlement, even without the
intrusion of third power in the case.
Turkeys situation in Africa is so OBJ
viously hopeless that short Of a miracle
of good fortune on the Mediterranean it
cannot expect to resist the Italian
seizure of Tripoli. Italy shows dis
position to respect the European limi-
tation of the war and to undertake no

the Mediterranean. This, lessons the
likelihood Of a spread of the campaign

A Morgan Dictum.

try Is all right" and 1t will remain

dwelling on what the state will lose in
the way of national prestige by his re-
tirement- His enemies are afraid he does
not mean what he says. and may retract
in time TO be his own successor.
This is not bad for Texas or for the
democratic party. 1t may prove beneficial
to both. Mr.. Bailey is a young man,
aighiy gifted, and widely experienced in
public affairs. Wherever he is, there is
something doing. He likes discussion and
is the cause of much And discussion is
the life of politics
When Mr.. Bailey declared that New
York was not on his card, but that he
would remain in Texas. he in effect de-
cIared that he would remain in politics.

Mexico.

Madero was elected President of Mex
leo. The laborer is worthy of his hire.
The successful revolutionist is worthy of
his revolution. 1t was Madero who over
threw Diaz, and that performance made
him the man Of the hour. How long his
hour will last is a question. Fortune is
tickle everywhere. She smiles one day
and frownS the next. She made an eX-
ception Of Diaz. She smiled on him for
a long time. But she may not prove so
kind to his successor. lightning seldom
strikes twice in the same place.
AS for the election, 1t probably differed
little in character from those held I'm the
days of Diaz and for hts benefit That is
to say, it was a government affair. There
being but one candidate. those who went
to the polls were expected to plump for
him. Reyes was driven off. He probably
had no chance to win, but the fact that
he left the country before election day
was notice sufficient to the people that
matters were thoroughly in hand for Ma
dero. The only thing left the voters to
do. therefore, was to support the only
candidate in the field. And the voters
obeyed orders and the necessity.
AS for the result, time must determine
the value of that. American sentiment
wishes Madero success. He will take Of
fee with expressions of good will for this
country, and with opportunities to
strengthen the friendly relations now ex-
listing between Mexico and the United
States He has ability. and is no stranger

But his task is enormous. The coun-

loot which puts the bandit nature on
edge. Many of them have dismounted
and gone into their caves or huts but a
chance renewal of excitement would soon
develop their strength again. A new cry
may seize them any time. 1t was anti
Diaz yesterday. 1t may be anti Madero
tomorrow.
The Mexico Of today is largely the fruit
OF foreign capital invested and managed
under foreign direction. Progress for the
future depends upon the same source.
Mexico in order to advance must en-
courage men Of means and enterprise to
make the country their home, and insure
them safety when they come. Their in
vestnents must find a rock bottom and
protection above ground. AS a man of
business Madero doubtless sees the case
clearly, and as lover of his country will
exert himself to guide things in the
right path.
He is pledged against a second term
But that depends. If he succeeds in Of
flee. and tranquility and prosperity at
