Mexico Warned.

The renewed American warnings to
both the established and recognized gov
eminent of Mexico and the leader OF the
principal insurgent force in that country
that the lives and property of Americans
must be respected are to be taken as
constituting the response of this country
to Orozco's reported threat to apply heavy
pressure on Americans within the terri
tory under his control as q means of
forcing intervention. Within the last few
days alarming statements OF conditions
south of the Rio Grande have been re-
ceived, indicative of a desperate deter
mination by Orozco to force the United
States TO take a hand in the internal
affairs of the republic by menacing the
lives and property of our citizens residing
there. This country cannot yield to such
pressure. At the same time 1t is COM
PEELED to put all Mexicans, both federals
and insurgents, definitely upon warning
that they Will be held accountable for
damages inflicted upon American inter-
ests as a result of the failure Of govern
ment there. Just how long our patience
can endure and how far trust can be
placed In the effectiveness Of the Mexican
government to safeguard American lives

The British Titanic Report.

Nmplc vindication of the American SEN

practical lessons To be learned from this
GnspeaEable tragedy Of the sea.
That the disaster was due to the ex-
travelling is the first and most important
deduction of the Mersey commission from
the testimony. That conclusion. however
called for little evidence. 1t was obvious
from the bare fact of the collision be-
tween the ship and the iceberg. For this
-eminently contributory cause of the
catastrophe the blame rests between the
officers of the ship and the directors OF
the owning company, whose policy un-
aoubtedly the officers were carrying into
effect when they took the vessel on her
maiden voyage.

the corporation for the losses SUFFERED,
the courts will probably now proceed to
determine questions Of damages on the
suits that have already been and are still
to be brought. OF far more Importance
is the matter OF the prevention OF future
sea horrors. What laws are necessary to
compel steamship companies. to equip
their lines up to the requisite percentage
of safety. and what regulations must De
enforced to make sure by thorough and
persistent inspection of compliance with
the rules? Doubtless the British board OF
trade will respond to the rebuke conveyed
in the Mersey report for its failure to
revise the shipping rules of 1894, under
which the Titanic was equipped and
manned and sent to sea on her fatal first
voyage. But will this revision suffice?
Will there be guarantees Of sufficiently
frequent further revisions to keep pace
with the changing conditions Of marine
construction and operation?
The American people, Of course, take an
interest in the manner in which the con-
duct of ]. Bruce Ismay and Sir Cosmo
Duff Gordon has been treated by the Mer-
sey commission. Yet these are questions
of the most significant Importance III.
in point of fact, Ismay was personally re-
sponsibIe for the excessive speed of the
Titanic in the ice field, or for the lack of
equipment. the shameful unreadiness
of the crew TO cope with the disaster

boats, he will be compelled to bear an
additional burden of blame beyond that

Dog Days.

From the Boston Transcript.
According to the almanac-makers we
are now passing through the dog-days. 1t
would be possible, indeed. in any rural
neighborhood, TO hear it asserted that we
have been under the influence of Sirius,
the dog-star, for matter of four weeks
for in the common belief this period be-
gins July } and ends August II. Some
persons. however, will argue for other
days and quote authorities also, there be-
ing large latitude in the choice of dates.
The helical rising of Sirius. its appear
ance at the same time with the sun, gives
the datum day from which to reckon back
and forward but the average citizen fails
to remember that the time of this rising
in any one place differs from century to
century, on account of the procession of
the equinoXes. Ii We accepted all the OBJ
serVations that have been recorded i'm the
course of 5000 Years. and if We Strove
to harmonic them in the same good faith
in which they We're made, might
locate dog-days anywhere between July :;
and October >. and fix the number of the
days at any figure from thirty to fifty
four.

The Band Wagon.

The old band wagon hits a pace
1t never knew of yore.
1t hnrries on from place to place,
Midst a terrific roar.
With sundry cans of gasoline
To help it pull the load.
Occasionally one Is seen
To flare up and explode.
So set the bell a-ringing.
And sound the horn so shrill.
The old band wagons swinging,
And she's coasting down hill.
Combustion's something fierce below
We're sitting on the lid
As We rush on we'd like to know
Just when she's going to skid.
The radiator starts to boil.
The steering gear is loose:
If she breaks down with all her toll,
Well hitch her to a moose.
No longer is she freighted
With music sweetly keyed.
The old band wagons gated
For her biggest burst of speed.

Preserving Streams.
From the Philadelphia Press.

From the PhiIadcIpha Press
The work of the state fisheries com
mission in seeking to stop the reckless
pollution Of our rivers and streams is a
step in the right direction. The move
ment has come none too early, but it
has come to stay and effort should not
be relaxed until substantial results are
obtained. All sorts of filth. acids and
poisons are nonchalantly sluiced off into
manufactures The refuse must be got
ten rid of somehow. and no doubt the
owners of mills. chemical plants tan
neries, etc, are but following the line of
least resistance. All the same it makes
scummv and unsightly mess of our
streams, changing what We're once pure
waters into the overslop of cities churn-
ing on their dump-heaped banks. This is
not to our credit nor even To advan-
tage. Economically il represents IA gross
indifference to. the value of our natura
resources.

Roosevelt and the South.

Mr.. Roosevelt is still relying on .'psy-
chology' for psychological effects" His
appeals to the south and expressed hopes
of support from that section are entirely
of psychological character. They are
feature of his program of publicity,
and not an evidence Of good faith. Just
as the fake contests in the south were
instituted to deceive voters elsewhere
and did in some measure accomplish that
end. the claims now made of Roosevelt
sentiment in that section are intended
to serve the interests of the bull moose
party north, east and west.
This is the English of the latest at
tempted fake. Boys, we've got EN-
Both democrats and republicans are COM
ing over to US by thousands. The solid
south is going to pieces. John NJ. Parker
will deliver Louisiana, and we have as
surances that Mississippi is on the way.
Work hard. Hope on. Hope ever
Rot. Nothing but rot. Mr.. Parker does
not control six votes in Louisiana He
does not control even the bears in his
canebrakes. Several years ago when Mr..
Roosevelt visited the south as a mighty
hunter Mr.. Parker's invitation and
searched the jungles far and wide, he
failed to get single paw.
AS for Mississippi. who is it quizzing
Mr.. Roosevelt and his too credulous
chairman? The Bayou state has just
repudiated Leroy Percy and conferred
her favor on James X. Vardaman Mr.
Vardaman's promise was to inaugurate,
If elected. movement for the repeal of
the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
to the Constitution. When he takes his
seat in the Senate. which will be in
March, the laundering is to begin. Where
is there hope for Mr.. Roosevelt in Mis-
sissippi2 Not ray appears to any per-
son familiar with the situation and free
to discuss it as it exists
The south. Of course, will vote for Mr..
Wilson. Even Louisiana, whose sugar
industry is being saved by the repubIi-
cans in Congress and Mr.. Taft in the
White House, will support the Baltimore
ticket
And more still. The south, with no
need of making a campaign at home
will raise a campaign fund for use in
the debatable states. Only yesterday, at
Seagirt, Mr.. Elyson of Richmond as
sured Mr.. Wilson that Virginia the lat
ter's native state. would do more than
her share toward financing the democrat
&c campaign.
The south is sentimental about some
things. but very practical about others.
Mr. Roosevelt has friends down there.
and Mr. Taft on personal grounds is very
popular. But neither has the slightest
political hold on that section and never
will have Mr.. Roosevelt Is playing the
south for psychological effects only.
