Ono Of the most unfortunate, ms
chicvous and discreditahle features "t
tho Mexican border episode has been the
readincss-wc might say the Zeai-h
some Americans tn impute the worst
motives n their own government IN the
exceedingly delicate Yet momenlous
operations which it has been performing
II WAS obvious that the massing ot our
army near the Mexican frontier was an
act which called for the utmost discre-
ton and tact. both in thc doing Of II ana
in discussions Of II. in order that there
should lo no unnecessary vounding OF
susceptbiltes or arousing OF SroundiPss
susnicione. Yet the moment 1t was M
Geriaken there was a chorus OF unNar-
ranted and intemporate comments ana
interpretat tions, ascribing TO our govern
ment either ineptitude or wickedness.
Some actual harm was thus done. and
if is not n tho credit Of the marplotS
that the amount was not far greater.
In Mexico and throughout Latin Amer
lea the suggestion was entertained that
thn United States was seeking in Mex
ico's domestic troubles an opportunity
for aggression and spoiation. To sober
citizens Of this country such notion
seems fantastic. hut We cannot expect
distant peoples 10 see II from precisely
thc same point of view or with the same
Iapprcciation cf It's folly. Even in Eu-
rope such suggestions were forced upon
public and official attention. and th"
alternative was put forward that per-
haps the sending of the troops was Moth
inc but hit Of stupidity. like that of
man who strikes matches in powder
magazine. indicating that the United
States government had not sense enough
to know how to use its army. There
was not the slightest basis I'm fact for
these imputations They We're purely
cratuitous and malign inventions.
II is not necessary TO uphold an eN-
trcme Interpretation Of the rule MY
country. right or wrong." in order to
assert that in any case involving doubt
the benefit Of that doubt should he given
"a our own country. and that not the
worst but tho best motives for It's acts
should be spontaneously imputed to our
government The present case Is only
ono Of n number I'm which there has
been manifested this unpatriotic inclina-
ton 10 think evil If our own. II Is
wrong. and may he exceedingly mis-
chievous. Common patriotism and self
respect should surely suggest the pro-
rrety Of assuming that the government
l. acting tntolicontIv and honestly until
tho contrary Is proved.

The massage Of the So-Called Gerln

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In the October. 1907, issue Of The

clo written hv me concerning the over
crowded conditions in tho streets near

Nassau streets-pointing out the great ne
ccssity for elevated sidewalks 10 relieve

reared 2 letter from the Municipal Art So

ing attention to the great necessity Of pro-
VIing additional footways for the con-

and must undoubtedly grow more unbear-
able when moro large office buildings,
planned for this section. are completed.
Thousands Of persons will then swell pc
dcStrian traffic.
To the writer's mind there is an impera-
tive need for an elevated sidewalk for
foot travellers. tight. but strong in con
struction, with glass disks which would
give sufficient light To- tho streets below.
There could be Connection made with the
mezzanins or nrst floor Of office buildings.

structuree, situated at the interesecting
corners I'm the side streets rather than in

be built IN Nassau street. between Spruce
and Wall streets, where most Of those
compelled to walk are forced 10 the road

overhead walk could be built over tho mar

rNDEPRA7yyG TIE PEOPLE.

II was fitting and not at all surprlS-
ing that tho mistake concerning the
popular taste for music in Western city
should re made by Socialist. We are
told that Mr.. Seidcl. the Mayor of Mil
waukec. directed that the programmes
Of the Sunday afternoon concerts which
that city maintains should he composed
largely Of what he regarded as "popu-
lar" music. meaning the cheap and vul-
gar stuff familiarly known as "ragtime.'
rather than Of the more classical compo-
sitions. which he doubtless held To be
unpleasing 10 the multitude. His dictun
was challenged however, and the judg-
ment of the public was sought. with the
result that nearly ntnetenths OF the
people heard from declared themselves
in favor Of the higher class of music.
1t is q mistake to underrate the intel
ligence. the taste or the integrity of the
masses Of the people, and It is a mistaRe
which is not infrequently made. "Popu-
lar has TO many minds come to be al
most synonymous with cheapncss ana
vugarity. That conception Is a llpel OH
the race In pecuniary cost, of course
things 10 be popular" must be within
the reach of persons of average means
but In quality nothing is or can be 700
good for the people. Made properly ac'
cesslble 10 them, the masses of our popu-
lation will every time prefer good music
and good literature TO cheap and mere
tricious trash. That fact has been de-
monstrated a thousand times. until it Is
amazing that any person of perception
and Judgment should fail to realize II.
That this mistake should be made by
Socialist is, however, less surprising
than If IT. should he made by almost
sny one else. because the genius Of the
socialistic cult seems largely TO be lev
elling down rather than up. II often IN
wolves an affectation Of humility ana

ABUSING THE "JUpE cULoTTE.'

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: wish to enter a protest against
calling the "jupc culotte' "harem
skirt" The name has no appropriateness
whatever and is suggestive Of line of
development for the garment which is
highly undesirable. The divided skirt Is
long stride In the right direction. but
IL should lie made OF business. not harem,
materials-neutral colored. serviceable
cloths, not flimsy. decorated silks. 1t
might better be called the liberty skirt"
In its present shape it has the disad-
vantage Of being too full not TO WIPE the
steps OF cars and staircascs. while IT cam
not be held up without the use Of both
hands Made narrow AT the bottom II
