THE SACRIFICE OF WAR,

The fact that Mexico has severed
diplomatic relations with the United
States intensifies a situation that is
already acute, but 1t does not neces-
sarily follow that this country will
declare war against Mexico.
II If. we send our children into our
neighbours yard to play and they re-
fuse to let their children play with
them, 1t would not furnish sufficient
excuse. for us to go over the line
fence and whip our neighbor. I'm
less 1t becomes necessary to inter-
fere for the protection OF the lives
or the property Of citizens OF this
country it will mot be necessary to
taxa up arms against Mexico. ,,t1.
General. Sherman knew from ex-
perience what war was and he said
War is hell" and war with the
Mexican Greasers and $1,000, 900
half-breed Indians would indeed
andSin fact be most "hellish" war.
1t will mean the loss of $4,000 lives
Of the pick of our young manhood,
the Expenditure Of millions Of dol
larsl and the keeping In that coun-
&try of a standing army of at least
258s886 men for a period of ten
years, according to the estimate OF
an army. expert.
Nobody has any sympathy for
Huerta or the Mexican government
or the lack of government. and most
people would like to see the whole
regime wiped from the face of the
earth, but will this sentiment justi-
fy the sacrifice of the lives OF
American citizens to accomplish this
end?
It is all right for the dollar dip
lomats and jingoes to advocate war.
1t Is good business for the specula-
tors with heavy Investments in Next
co to get others to so down there and
do their fighting for them and make
of themselves targets for the pur-
pose of saving their dollars, but It
does not appeal to the mothers OF
the country who have to give UP
their boys upon the alter of human
sacrifice to accomplish these things.
: The loss Of all this Mexican in
vested money will not bring as many
heart aches as the loss OF single
life.
American patriotism does not de-
mand war unless the situation be-
comes more alarming and unless there
Is offered better excuse than the re-
fusal Of the high handed murderer
and usurper, Huerta, to treat dipio-
matically with the U. S. Govern
ment. 3aw@sgEgI

ATTORNEY GENERAL WRONG.

That Attorney General Lilly Is in
the wrong in his opposition to the
payment OF the witness claim Of De.
tective Biddinger seems to be an opin-
ion very generally accepted, and the
auditor cannot well refuse to honor
the voucher when 1t Is certified by
the court and presented to him for
payment.
In the matter Of allowances for
fees OF witnesses who reside outside
Of the State the practice has always
been to make payment by special or
der OF the court trying the case and
1t Is the first time in the history Of
the State that we have ever heard
OF claim of this kind being in any
manner contested. - ia.
A part Of chapter 1870 of the code
relating to witnesses In criminal
cases living outside of the State
says: "A person residing out of this
State who attends n court therein as
witness shall be allowed by said
court proper compensation for at
tendance and for allowance and
travelling and from the place Of his
abode. the amount of the same to be
fixed by said court"
Under the law the question of
reasonable compensation Is mat
ter for the court to determine and IS
entirely out Of the Jurisdiction OF the
Attorney General.
While the claim Of the detective
was large one 1t sens to be not at
all eXhorbitant when it Is shown that
he was engaged in the prosecution
for about three months time and that
he makes a salary Of $4,000 per year.
If an alienist or celebrated expert
had been brought into the State 10
testify in q criminal case and had
been compelled to stay here for the
tlCht l0hBtH VI hiliC tHet DChSSbNC
Riddinger did, there surely would
have been no objection, to even Il
larger amount being allowed by the
court
Biddingcr rendered the State eX-
ccllent service and he should be paid
for his time. ]!
The court before whom the witness
appeared is certainly II better and
more competent judge OF what is II
reasonable compensation" than the
Attorney General or any other per-
son who had co connection with tho
case.
Taking the whole expense OF the
trial of the legislative grafters into
consideration, which was only about
$40. 900 Off the five convictions, the
cost was very reasonable and the re-
suits were well worth the price.
