OUR WARFARE

Far off the elemental base
Of our terrestrial supplies,
Our once protecting pageant lies
Ensc. nced behind the trickSome race.
Enraptured oft, the transient scene,
Lures us to trifle and delay;
We let our moral worth decay
To heed esteem and barter mien.
For sake of power and puny pelf
And entertainments of the passing day
Polluted honor has her way.
Observed not by our cautious self.
Protectors of each other we,
Which should be only in the good
And not the bad that others would;
Shield not the bad in others see.

The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-12-19


Without being able to estimate the
pension roll that would follow a war
with Mexico or the losses sustained
by the common folks of the United
States whose wage-earners will have
to do the fighting and the occupy
ing of Mexico, we can still pile up
quite respectable figure of actual
cost which would be necessary at the
very outset of such a movement,
We have assumed, in our consider
alton of this question, that the initial
campaign would be over in six or
eight months at a cost of about ST.
100000 day. Then, as a minimum,
we would have to maintain an army
of occupation for six months which
would cost at least $100,000,000.
Therefore it will cost about S450,000,-
900 and 100000 men, if we can get
through with the job in about a years
time!
But we can't! We should have to
keep an army there longer than that.
Garrisons would have to be establish
ed, lines of communication kept open,
bandits subdued. 1t would cost $780,
ooo,o00 more for another year of oc-
cupation. And, if longer than that,
millions upon millions would have to
be added.
If it is question of protecting the
property of,American corporations in
Mexico it would be far cheaper to pay
these corporations all they might ask
for their holdings and let it go at
that! This cost would be drop in
the bucket compared to the cost of
occupation of the country. If it is
money that is involved, the cost of

paper Enterprise Association.)
protecting" the interests of our cap
italists in Mexico is so great, that, as
a business venture, the cost would be
considered prohibitive.
If it is case of protecting the
Americans now in Mexico, whose
lives may be endangered in the civil
strife in that country, how about the
10000 men who will lose by inter-
Vention and occupation?
/: THE COST TO MEXICO
Outside of all this estimated
and that beyond estimation-we are
morally bound to consider the cost to
Mexico. The only possible plea for
invasion would be to 'paeify" the
country-to restore order" If in
PREVENTION were welcomed by Mexico
by fairly representative portion of
its inhabitants-or by a strong rebel
party in the field to whom the United
States could consistently grant the
rights of belligerents, there would be
a fair pretext. But all Mexican
parties, divided in everything else, are
opposed to Intervention.
Therefore, under such circum-
stances, Intervention would be in the
nature Of bringing additional blood
shed and financial loss to Mexico in
order to stop the loss now going on.
Invasion, to Mexico, would mean
far greater loss of life and property
than can now be caused by her own
troops in the field and fighting each
other.
The cost of years war and a
years occupation" to Mexico and to
the Mexican people would be much
larger than two years more of the

tionary THROUGH Twice.

To illustrate tho abilities OF General
Caleb Cushing, one OF New England 8
famous men. a writer In the New York
Sun vouches for the following remark
able feat.
1t was in the fiftles that the publish
ers Of Webster's Dictionary requested
General Gushing to write friendly
notice OF the work. General Gushing
replied that he had read 1t and that II
they expected complimentary notice Of
a work that contained 5000 errors they
would be disappointed.
The publishers replied that II he
would prove his statement to the salts
faction Of the editor, Professor Porter
Of Harvard, they would believe him.
Thereupon he read the dictionary
through a second time and mailed n
list OF 5000 errors to Professor Porter.
This extraordinary achievement, de-
clares the writer, justi6es the state
ment made in 1876 by Wendell Phillips
that he considered General Gushing to
be the most learned man Of the day.
