THE SEAT OF TROUBLE

An exchange makes the state
ment that there seems 70 he a
deep antipathy among Mexicans
against Americans, and suggests
that steps be taken to find out the
cause the difficulty, with view to
having it adjusted.
The trouble is not hard to find.
as it consists entirely of race pre-
Judice. In the southern country a
Mexican is known to an American
as "greaser while the latter
retaliates by calling the white man
a "gringo." The American looks
upon Mexcians as an inferior race,
which is resented by the latter in
no uncertain manner. And while
the Mexican people can and do
assilnilate Chinese, Japs, Indians,
and negroes, they do not mix with
the Americans.
Thi. antipathy is born in the
bood and can never be overcome
The Mexican does not trust a white
man, especially an American. will
not learn his language, does not
want him or his progressive ideas
in his country and is satisfied to
live and die as did his forefathers.
They have never invited Americans
to their country, and if they persist
in going on missions of conquest
and muney-getting they will receive
scant encouragement from the
natives.
