THE VETERANS OF THE WAR

The veterans of the war
Faster than ever before
Are passing away, one hundred a day
Are crossing the pontoons Ger.
In columns they're marching by
mours,
Crossing the pontoons DER,
To that camping ground where
Their comrades are,
That fell at their side in the war.
Their victories all have been won
Their long life of duties well done,
Under light marching orders
They're crossing the borders
By command of the Eternal One.
But few of the men still survive,
That left mothers and sisters and
wives,
In defense of Old Glory.
On battle fields CORY
From sixty-one til sixty-fiye.
Young men they were when they bore
To victory the flag they wore
Now aged and grey
They are passing away
One hundred a day and more.

SEEKING PEACE.

The day is coming when we shall all
be glad Of the patience and forbearance
of this nation and Of the present Mexican
crisis. No matter whether the outcome
is peace or war the people Of this coun-
try will have reason TO be proud Of the
fact of the patience shown by this gov
eminent under conditions that tried the
humanity, and self command Of a great
nation III many exasperating ways.
AT this time it is good to keep the fact
clearly in view that there is no issue
between Wilson and Huerta or Carran-
"a. The only issue there can be must be
one between the people Of Mexico and the
people of the United States. National
honor is q great thing. something to be
jealousy guarded and preserved. Yet
our national honor is not likely to get
away from rs and become lost except
for some misconduct Of our own.
Ii is possible for Huerta or some 9th
er leader in Mexico to say many impol-
tie, unfair and altogether unjust things
about our country. Yet rot for any idle,
angry or absurd talk on his part Will we
be justified in plunging two nations into
war. He is not Mexico. With I'll due res.
pect to him-with all the respect he is
entitled to in amy view Of him. officially
h IS not Mexico. If we could be sure
that on amy single issue. he spoke the
thought Of his own people, il might
change the look Of things somewhat. Now
as matters stand, our simple duty j. to
do right.
In the improbable event that We shall
be forced into war, we must enter il
without reproach Of the civilized world.
The world must be able TO say Of Us. that
as a nation. 50 far. we have sought only
the peace and prosperity Of the people
of Mexico.
