1877, The Mexican Herald speaks very
practically and to the point as fol-
lows:
1T is now no time for fine-spun
scruples. Mexico is like house on
fire, and prompt action is necessary
We are all of us, theoretically at least
in favor of strictly constitutional gov
eminent, but looking at things as they
really are, no sensible man will say
that strict adherence to the constitu-
ton is practicable. The prospect Of a
fair presidential election in existing
circumstances, or even, as the case
may be, by the last of October, is de-
cidedly dubious.
"The crying need of Mexico is a
firm and progressive administration of
affairs, in order that honest and we'll
disposed citizens may attend to their
business, and that all those who have
suffered by the civil war may under
take the restoration of their shattered
fortunes. And the only hope of the
realization of this modest program lies
in backing up the existing federal adj
ministration.
Americans in Mexico should not be
treated as enemies, but as guests of
the Mexican people, urges the Nacion.
There is no matter more serious than
the rupture of international relations"
1t declares, and puts forth the plea of
hospitality toward the Americans, al
though citizens of a hostile nation"
The right way to treat foreigners set
tied in Mexico is thus outlined:
Our guests from the North ought
now more than ever to receive at our
hands the respect and consideration
which they expect in a cultured ma
ton. Anything done or said to the
contrary, any outbreak of impudence
or false patriotism, would be neither
judicious NOR patriotic, much less
Christian"
The United States can not but re-
6dIu US Win aversion ana disgust, de-
clares the Independence, if we allow
popular feeling against that country
to burst out into excuses of various
sorts, ending in conflict and the blood
shed of necessary repression. It pro-
ceeds:
I'VE shall cease to be considered as
overwhelmed by our own misfor-
tunes, a prey to conflicting political
interests, and shall be regarded as an
enemy whose traditional antipathy,
formerly dormant, becomes changed
into an attitude of active aggression.
and this is the grave, the horrible
danger of the present moment. We
are almost on the threshold of war
with the colossus of the North, a war
in which Mexicon heroism might make
brilliant pages, but which would entail
unheard-of sacrifices in lives and
property, the paralysis of all vital

In the Tuesday editorial the Times
referred to the outstanding warrants
of the Independent school district,
which prove to have been issued in eX-
cess of the funds available. There is
no question about the fact that the
warrants represent actual expendi-
ture of money for school purposes and
are held by people who took them in
good faith, Every one of the warrants
should by all means be redeemed by
the school district, which has had the
use of the omney. The good name of
the school district requires that they
be redeemed

THE MORAL BUDGET.

The s., 500 asked 70 Fairgrounds
should be put in the 1913 budget on the
theory of an ounce OF prevention being
worth pound of cure, if for no higher
reason We do not know whether the
committee knows much about pro-
phylaxis. but the general idea is brushing
your teeth 10 keep them sound. The
playground item is 81 500 worth of moral
prophylaxis. 1t is intended to keep
children healthy and sound. both in
body and character 1t should appeal
TO the iynx-eyed dispensers of the city :
funds as a good Investment 1t will
prevent far heavier expenses for cure.
AS matter of fact. the moral budget
of Richmond is far more important
than the material one. Yet we think
heretofore the proportion has been
top-heavily material Streets are fine
things. but rather extravagant luxuries
if they lead nowhere. or if those who
travel them are poor in body, mind
and spirit An armory is a good thing
IN its way. and Of value TO the city
when mobs threaten the extinction Of
law, but IL would be better to have
play grounds 10 nip mob feeling out of
the heart of youth. Ornamental lights
are no finer than rosy cheeks and happy
laughter. We mention these things to
prove that the time has come when
Richmond must learn to put spiritual
needs in her budget. The pitiful alb
sence of any provision for social progress
or esthetic improvement must be cor
rected. Fairgrounds. a library, an
auditorium. parks. an art gallery-most
modern cities put them in the budget.
The Recreation Committee presents
reasons enough for this small appropria-
ton. Why pay $4,000 for health. yet
make no provision for preventing future
disease Why pay SIS 900 FOR correction
and punishment OF crime. vet give
ming TO abolish crime, Why pay
$500 0o0 for schools Yet fail 90 take care

The One Way to Get Good Roads.

Is excellent as far as il goes. Good
roads and good schools are logical con-

well in mind that meetings OF them

STREET CLEANING CO-OPERA-
TfON.

Richmond wants clean streets. BY
the proper and Judicious expenditure
of sufficient money. Ricbmond can have
clean streets. Tho conference this
afternoon between the Administrative
Board and the Superintendent Of the
street Cleaning Department should
result in "A definite and cicar-cut plan
for remcdy wing the present defects m
method. equipment or force. and for
Incorporating in the budget an APP
preparation that viii accomplish results.
But the mere addition Of men and
machines viii not do everything. The
men must 5e used for street-clcaning,
they must have constant and intelligent
direction. and they must be put on
some sort of civil service basis. II
Richmond meets what seem tho just
demands Of the department. there should
bc no repetition OF charges of political
activity. nor any grounds for such
charges.
There are other clements in keeping
clean city than the mere constant
sweeping Of its surface. or prime
Importance are the streets themselves.
Before We over have really clean streets,
the paved area must be extended to
prevent the encroachmcnt of dirt from
unpavcd districts into paved territories.
Every bit of traffic from mud street
carries its increment onto the paved
one. 40 force or machinery can cure
this condition 1t is an argument for
better streets aud more Of them. 1t
is equally apparent that dilatory paving
work that keeps blocks open and mud
producing right in the heart Of the city
for months must add TO the dirt on
other streets. The long job of paving
Broad street and part of Main has
helped to make the entire downtown re
gion dirty. The carelessness of contract
ors in the excavation of private buildings
and street work has added its quota.
These faults cannot be charged to the
street cleaner Tho board must sec
to it that every care is exercised to
push public work and control private
work, to lessen the labor of keeping
streets clean.
The private citizen. too. must CO.
operate by keeping his own premises
clean and disposing of refuse and
garbage in a sanitary way. The proper
use of the alley is fundamental. More
rash-boxes in the downtown section
for the reception of refuse would enable
the thoughtful person TO prevent untidy
litter in the streets.
We must have good streets and more
ughtfulness. Then give the depart
ment what help IL needs. demand
absolute efficiency and economy in
the use of its means. and an improve
ment that every citizen deeply desires
will be begun.

and comprehensiveiy expressed, that.
The New York Times regards the
reply as 'inconsequcntial: the mere
evasion of a special pleader. who
overlooks the heart of the debate
and places the emphasis ON some
triviality." In that contention no
thoughtful and discriminating mind
can fail 10 coincide. upon careful
and fun perusal OF the reply.

clined 10 think that the Knox note will
only confirm the American people In
their sobsr-Ininded conclusion, and While
IL admits by implication that the
