INTERVENTION SERIOUS MATTER

Border conditions between the
United States and Mexico become
uglier every day. If Madero does not
take hold of the situation with a firm
hand and put down the revolution in
very short time, Intervention by the
United States is not at all unlikely.
President Taft is said to be very much
aroused on the subject, and an extra
session of congress is predicted at an
early day.
AS The Eagle sees it, Intervention
Is not yet necessary. 1t would be in
deed serious step, far more serious
than the mass of the people imagine
who have not given the subject seri-
GUS consideration. 1t would mean the
equipment of not less than hundred
thousand troops for active service 1t
would mean the sacrifice of hundreds
and thousands of lives; it would mean
not less than two years of strife and
turmoil; it would mean the expendi-
ture OF millions of dollars. In addi.
ton to all this, it might result in
complications with other powers own.
ing large interests in Mexico, that
would involve us in international
strife, and possibly war. Intervention
is indeed serious step and one that
should be well considerably by the pow
ers that be before it is taken
The situation, however is such that
larger force is needed along the
border to protect the interests of this
country. Such force should be mo-
bilized along the border at once, and
every infraction by Mexico punished
promptly and in such way that
Americans and American interests
will be recognized and respected
wherever found.

Bryan Eagle.
Bryan is probably emerging into a
metropolitan city. 1t will require tact
and careful handling to induce the
farmers to place their teams some
where else, but that is going to be
necessary. All the Texas towns that
have grown into cities have had to
meet this situation. In meeting it the
people who have done best are those
who provided not only other places
for the teams, but rest rooms for the
women of the farms and other con-
veniences for men and women whose
patronage is essential to the welfare
of the city. 1t is a problem-but the
houses will probably not have to be
moved Galveston News.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

1t keeps lazy men busy putting
things off till tomorrow.
You can get lot of things for moth
ing that nobody wants.
A little learning is eldom as danger
GUS as a little ignorance.
Some women marry for love, some
for money, and some just because.
Many a man is able to lead the SIM
pie life because his wife takes in
boarders.
Lots of people think more of their
heirlooms than they do of their ances-
tors.
When man meets trouble half
way he has poor companion for the
rest of his journey.
Occasionally a young man is so
dense that the one girl in the world
for him has to put him wise to the
fact
When there is beam of love in a
girls eye it's up to young man to
remove the mote from his own.
Occasionally we meet girl who is
so fond of music that she never tries
to play the piano.
In this land of the free and home of
the brave any person who cares to
do so has a perfect right to make a
guess.

more than one.
1t must be confessed that the rear
