Standard Oil group has been charged with backing
the Maderos and through purchase of vast prop
critics Of the family financing their revolt. On the
other hand it has been represented that the British
Pearson interests, with their affiliations, supported
the old regime.
The gossip of Washington has brought in many
other interests and elements. One fanciful tale has
had American railway inanciers anxious to dominate
the Mexican administration, in order to suppress the
competition of the Tehuantepec railway. This story
had trimmings, including the suggestion that the
American rail kings thought they could suppress the
serious competition of the Panama canal but feared
that if the troublesome Tehuantepec route. we're left
independent, it would not only make trouble on its
own account, but would complicate the problem Of
keeping the canal in subjection.
So it has been alleged that railroad and oil in
terests in this country, largely identical, we're in
effect fighting British railroad and oil interests, for
the privilege Of dominating Mexico. noble stake
it would be, indeed, for such magnificent game.
That there are elements of truth in such stories
is generally believed The whole truth ought to be
known, and the Senate has done good work in
naming special committee to investigate. The
whole facts will not be uncovered, but enough may
come to light to warn this country.
Such warfare of exploiting interests inevitably
looks toward the necessity of American control of
Mexico; and that is something this country cannot
afford under any circumstances to assume.

The Warrant of Truth Is All That
The Times Has. r.

To the Editor of THE TINES:
What warrant has The Times for the
statement that the Works-Jones bill is
generally demanded by the people of
this District? 1t is true a number of
ministers of churches have advocated
Its passage, and they undoubtedly rep
resent majority of their congregations,
but, on the other hand, one of the
largest. IL not the largest Christian
denominations has taken no part in the
matter. Two of its ministers actually
opposed the bill before the committee,
and were promptly browbeaten and in
suited by the presiding Senator. The
Commissioners oppose it. One would
suppose that the Chamber of Commerce
and the Board of Trade could speak for
the business interest. They are sup
posed to have the welfare of the COM
munity at heart, but they were dumb.
Some time ago some one was quoted
ter were put to vote the bill would be
Endorsed by large majority. He had
absolutely no figures to base the guess
on. A society of young people worked
actively for the bill. nearly all under
bars every one day in the week than
there are members in that society. AZ
for the daily press in Washington, The
Times stood alone. The Washington

LET US HEAR FROM PARKER!

Mr.. Hearst declares that various Democrats got
Standard Oil money in 1904. Inasmuch as one,
Alton B. Parker thinks Mr.. Hearsts word is sufficient
to back up Parker's statement that the Republican
party got Standard Oil money in 1904, it is now up
to Mr. Parker to do little explaining in behalf of
his own campaign committee.
Did he know that it, too, was in financial COM
munication with Mr.. Arcnbold at the time he was
denouncng Roosevelt? If he did, then he does not
come into court with clean hands. If he did not,
then he can readily see how it was as easy for Mr.
Roosevelt not to know all about whence the Repub-
lcan finances it was for MIN to be in ignorance
of the Democratic finances
1t really begins to look as though the Democrats
had shut the door on their fingers in their haste
to try to catch Mr. Roosevelt

AN NUNFORTUNATE BASEBALL DECISION

President Ban Johnson of the American League,
decides that Walter Johnson lost that ball game on
Monday, when he went into the box in the seventh
inning against ST. Louis. The score stood tie; ST..
Louis had men on first and second bases At the
close, Washington had lost @,'.
This decision against Johnson makes it impos-
sible for him further to compete for the worlds
pitching record. He had won sixteen consecutive
games and the American League record; three more
games would have equaed the worlds record
The charge now that Johnson lost that game may
be technically just6able; but it is unfortunate for
the sport 1t will not do to say that players have no
business playing for records; any man as close to
worlds record as Walter Johnson was, will want to
win 1t if he is worth fig to the game. To make
him victim of other mems misfortunes to deprive
him Of his place in the hall of fame because he
can't crawl out of another pitchers hole without
half chance, is calculated to injure discipline to
dasspate enthusiasm, and to hurt the game

HIS THIRD START IN LIFE.

Councilman Burke's return to Philadelphia, to
start life over again" presents new solution of
an old and often very tragic problem. The great
publicity given his has been the means of draw
ing much sympathy to him and encouraging him to
make another start, this time under more favorable
auspices.
A great deal is said about people who never
got show" But Burkes proves how quickly
the world gives sympathy to the who is trying
to climb up honestly. The press reflects this SYM
pathy when it devotes much of its energy, as it
did in this instance, to presenting the facts so clearly
But it is doing the same thing every day, and always
with the conviction that the public believes in fair
play.
Burkes experience should be lesson to others,
more or less unfortunate, who have ability and am
bition to do WELL but who have come to the unhappy
conclusion that everything is going against them.

MISMANAGEMENT OR THRIFT?

Mr. Hearsts charge that various Democrats"
got Standard Oil money in 1904 wnen taken in con-
nection with the election returns of that year shows
that those various Democrats" were either yery
poor managers when it came to getting value re-
ceived for their expenditures or that they were very
thrifty gentlemen who thought that money in the
hand was better than Parker in the White House.

POOR PENNSYLVANIA.

Pennsylvania is certainly having more than her
share of tough luck. While Penrose is still making
exhibition of how far the State will suffer her
official representatives to drop into political de-
generacy, along comes William Berry, candidate for
State treasurer on the Democratic ticket and makes
display of how far man go politically insane
and still be permitted at large
At the meeting of the Lehigh county Democrats
Saturday Mr. Berry devoted his time to exposing
what ne termed the gigantic conspiracy of the age
a plot between Taft and Roosevelt whereby Roose-
welt is to Progressive in order to split the
Progressive vote with Wilson that Taft may again
be elected.

recorded what Roosevelt was to get out of it,
