MUST KEEP HANDS OFF
Mobilization of Army on Mexican Border Presumably Has for its Intention the Prevention of Any
 Interference by Foreign Power

The Tokio Hoehe states that there is no doubt that the ultimate ob- ject of the United States is the annexation of Canada and Mexico and other Central American repub- lies.
 The Paris Temps believes that the demonstration on the part of the United States government is being made possibly for the pur- pose of indicating to Mexico what it might expect should it make access sion of naval base to Japan. The Spanish campaign, continues the Temps, made America cocky and also awakened it to the fact that a larger standing army is neces, sary.
 PARIS, March 12. - Replying to a request for his opinion regarding Americas move President Diaz has cabled here that there is nothing to fear. The United States, he says, has been careful to explain it. self and he is satisfied that there is no cause for disquiet
 MEXICO CITY, March 12. The declaration of martial law through out the country, invoking the death penalty without trial, for both civil and military cases, has startled the people and made hundreds turn to- ward the rebels for aid. The entire cabinet. however, approves Diaz' action. The order is absolute and provides for no executive clemency.
 MILWAUKEE, March 12. Vic tor Berger, the Socialist represen- tative to congress from this city, declares that the United States, by it's mobilization of the army on the Mexican frontier, Is simply maintaining and advocating Mexi- can tyranny, and the big interests are being served by President Taft.

SEATTLE. March 12. - The for eign press devotes a great deal of space to the mobilization of the American army on the Mexican iron ier, and many divergent views are expressed.
 The LondCn Post says that should the American army be sent into Mexico it would be hard to put a limit on the consequences.
 The London Standard opines that the object of the United States government is to restrain a bane- ful reaction when the reins fall from Dictator Diaz's hands.
 The Mall says that America is we'll within it's rights so long as the precautions are simply being taken to protect American and Flu ropean interests.
 The News asserts that If America
 rntemplates intervention in the struggle in Mexico its action can not be defended by any internation- al law.
 The Financial News insists that the trouble in Mexico was fomented by American oil interests and this country will gain nothing in pres tige if it does not stop the scan- dalous state of affairs
 The Berlin Post asserts that America, with its usual unscrupu- lousness. is doing all it can to ef- feet an annexation of Central Amer ica and is now paying particular at, tention to Mexico. It is believed here that the mobilization has a different purpose than the protec- ton of foreign interests.
 The Taggeblatt asserts that the Monroe doctrine is indefensible in international law and the United States will have no cause to com plain If Germany takes steps to protect its own interests in Mexi. co,

So confident Is he of this that he has placed his home rule meas ure at the head of his program. This was turned down once, but he asserts that it was before Alas ka's regeneration, and the sentiment now in the lower house is that the bill should be passed. The measure would provide territorial legis- lature which would enable the laws to be made by Alaskans and free them from the freak legislation which they at present have to put up with.
