Keep all small cottolene and
syrup buckets to can green beans
in. Cook the beans at least two
hours, then fill the buckets and pull
to the back of the stove. Hammer
the covers down tight and seal with
sealing wax, pouring wax all around
until all air bubbles have escaped.
The beans may be cooked in the
buckets, and enough boiling water
added to cover the beans, leaving
just enough room for lid to fit down
Buckets and lids should be heated
before putting in the beans. The
buckets are better for beans than
glass jars as they exclude the light.

RECOGNIZING BOTH PARTIES.

The Herald has not been of the jung
goes at any time since the troubles be-
gan in Mexico. 1t is not among the jim
goes now. IT has believed that Mexico
should be allowed to work out her prob
lens in her WI way and in her w time
without interference of the bystanders.
1t still holds to that opinion. At the
same time it feels that this theory, like
other theories is susceptible of modifi-
cation by circumstances.
For it must be conceded that bystand-
ers have rights which the combatants
should respect. 1t must be conceded that
in all the time since the trouble began,
many circumstances have arisen tend
ing to annoy and exaspe1trtc the Amer
lean people: and we cannot forget that
our government owes something to its
own people as well as 10 Mexico.
Even now not many Texas people are
asking for armed intervention on the
part of the United States. Yet here in
the southwest a feeling is growing that
our government should
L. Recognize the Huerta government.
,. Recognize the CarranziStas as be-
ligerents.
In that case the United States could
establish diplomatic relation with both
parties-after a fashion. With such re

ward Americans. 1t is no dollar diplo-
macy to object to the lining up of Amer
lean citizens against dead walls, facing
files of bandits f. this or that party. and
compelling them to give up property tina,
is honestly theirs. IT is no dollar dipio-
macy to forbid burglary, arson, or open
robbery at the expense of peacable Am
orleans. We do not care a rap as 10
which party heads the government at
Mexico City. We grow weary of this mo-
notonous story of outrage and plumber.
Our patience grows t~hreadbare. Recog-

both parties under bonds to keep the
