FIGHT ON OWN SOIL
CONFLICT MUST BE CONFINED
TO MEXICAN TERRITORY.
SAFEGUARDING AMERICAN LIFE
President Notifies Authorities that
War Must Not Get Over the Rio
Grande.

Washington.-Presid Taft is de.
termined that battles between Mexi.
can federalists and insurrectos shall
not be fought on American soil. He
is equally determined that the lives
of American nOn-cOmbatantS shall
not be endangered by the forces of
President Diaz and those of General
Madero. Future combats between the
rebels and the forces of the Mexican
government must not be fought out
SO close to the American line as to
put in jeopardy the lives and proper
ty of Americans.
Through the state department the
president notified the Mexican gov
eminent that it must see to it in the
future that no such unfortunate incl.
dent as that OF Thursday at Aqua
Prieta. near Douglas. Ariz.. when two
Americans were killed and eleven
wounded, be allowed to occur.
Through the war department and
through the department of justice the
president sent the same sort OF warn
ing to the leader of the insurrectOs
at Aqua Prieta.
The view was expressed at the
White House that these warnings will
be obeyed to the letter and that no
more battles will be fought in the
vicinity of the boundary.
Neither the president nor any OF his
advisers whom he called into consul
tation. was inclined to regard the in
cident at Aqua Prieta as fOrerunner
of anything more serious. but they did
conclude that it must not be repeated.
President Taft feels that his order
sending the troops to Texas has been
entirely justified by the developments
of the last few days. He is more GER
tain than ever that conditions in the
southern republic are. to say the least.
alarming. He is hoping that there
will be no need for any further move
ment to the south, but If there should
be he knows that 10000 American
troops are near the Rio Grande and
that on that river and the Mexican
border itself is already a force that is
not insignificant.
An attack on Juarez. just across the
border from Ell PasO. seems impend-
ing, and consequently. the commander
of the Department of Texas is charged
with the responsibility of seeing that
the city of Ell Paso is not endangered.
In California the city of CalexicO faces
the Mexican town of Mexicali. in the
vicinity OF which considerable fighting
has occurred recently.
The war department received re-
port from the commander of the De-
partment of Colorado. Ii said the
American forces offered no interfer-
ence in the battle. but one United
States officer upon request of the fed
erals. crossed the line and endeavored
to induce the remainder of the fede-
rails to cease a useless fight.

Neither in Mr.. Hills letter of resig-

Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
