HIS FELLOW CITIZENS.

How and why Roosevelt decided to become a candidate for the republican nomination for president is one ol the topics of the day that is receiving a very considerable amount of atten ton.
 The following story, taken from an exchange. will perhaps prove interest ing when considering the question:

THE AMERICAN TASK.

The Boston Financial News takes a view of the Mexican situation which will no doubt be strongly resented by the people of that country, of all ;ac' .ns.
 It is evident. says the Financial News, that the government of Mexico is Inable to maintain order through ct the country, and. wi5h so many lawless bands rowing about ,.illasing and committing acts of violence with out interference, it will probably be only matter of time when foreign lives and property will be attacked, when it will be squarely up to us to protect foreign interests or acknowl. edge the right of European nations to do so. The first intimation of ac- ton by European country came in the report from Paris that the French government has been particularly anX. ious to avoid anything that looked like intervention, so as to prevent any charge of land grabbing, but it is not so sure but that events will soon force us to take action, looking to the pro lection of property and lives in the states that are now in a condition Of anarchy.
 It has been believed by many ever since the beginning of the troubles following the election of Madere, that a strong party was at work to compel intervention by our government, the incentive being the opening qf a vast rich country to settlement and exploitation under our laws and with the guarantee of order that our gov ernment would assure. There is no doubt of the richness of the states which border on our territory and, from a purely selfish standpoint, we should benefit very greatly by the annexation of these states, but we have taken strong position against a seizure of the territory of weak nations and it will only be with the greatest reluctance on the part cf the American people that our govern ment will interfere in Mexico's affairs and, only, when such d course seems absolutely necessary to protect the lives and property of foreigners.
 The Monroe doctrine makes it our business to see, not only that the lives and property of our own citi- gems are safeguarded. bus those of citizens of other countries as well and it is likely that, if we are finally forced to interfere in Mexico, it will be because of pressure brought to bear by the nations of Europe. This would be a regrettable turn of affairs, but, fl Mexico, as with China, cannot protect human life and property then some one must do it for her. It is true also that the proximity of the fighting m Mexico and the fact that the region where anarchy prevails is so close to our borders has already caused us some loss and annoyance and that our patience may easily become eN bausted if the thing continues, and there is nothing at present to lndi cate that the Mexican government is powerful enough to stamp oat the rule of the brigands who are devasting tho country,

LONDON, November 16.-George Lloyd,

bers of the house of commons on foreign
politics, sharply rebukes Mr.. Masterman,
financial secretary to the treasury, in a
letter in the Times for his indiscreet and
irresponsible speech in which he asked
for sympathy for the enemies of Turkey.
Mr.. Lloyd says:
Considerably more important than the
financial secretary's views on Balkan
politics is the fact that Mr.. Masterman
is member of the government. and
that, in view of the governments neu-
trality, the country has the absolute
right to demand that ministers, if they
must make pubic reference to the war,
should do so with the utmost restraint,
and that their words should be free
from any suspicion OF bias toward one
side or the other
