INTERVENTION PROBABLE.

Yesterdays dispatches INFORM Us
that the first cabinet meeting heiu
since June, was called to CONSIDER
the situation in Mexico. That Ter
many has ordered warship to the
Mexican coast Is reported that lot
eign intervention will result LOOKS
,rchable. unless our government takes
some steps to restore peace III 'n"'
troubled country President wilson |
and Secretary Bryan are to be com
mended for their efforts toward the
peace of this country. That these OIL
ficials have realized that they nave
no moral right to produce a state ol
warfare that means such great loss
of life. is evident from the course
-bev have pursued. But the situation
continues to grow worse ana there
are two features that are now enter
ing into the situation. One OF them
IS this, that If we cannot restore peace
some other government Will II any
government steps into the troWoie
that duty devolves upon the uhl'eu
States, the coming of other nations
is likely to produce international com
nl,oations that would result in a
greater war than would be necessary
merely to restore peace in the MeNi-
can Republic. The next feature Oh
the situation resolves itself into tha'
old question, Am | my brothers
keeper." The railways of Mexico are
being ruined, the ranches are beng
oyerrun and the live stock slam, the
mines lie idle, the youth of the couh'
try are being kept from school, ana
are under marching orders homes are
being burned, lives are being sacrI
feed and the virtue Of women out
rogod The Mexican has demOnstrat
ed that he is not capable OF sell-goV
ernment. President Huerta owes his
present position to military usurpa
tion and not to an honest election h'
is branded with the crime OF wlltu
murder in the destruction of Madero
He cannot have the respect of ever
his own fighting forces, and they VII
turn against him at the first oppor
unity. Onehalf the membership o
his congress are in prison and mus
undergo trial.
With Huerta as prosecutor and a
Judge and as jury, only conviction
awaits these men and just what IN
punishment will be, no one knows
Huerta himself does not know. III
will view the matter when it come
from the standpoint Of the necessit
of maintaining himself and upon tina
idea Of justice rests the fate of tn
men in prison whose only crime !
their objection to the high hande
manner OF the dealings OF the pres
dent. If Intervention must come, an
it looks now like It is inevitable,
ought to come at once before create
destruction results.

Conservation Solons
in Congress

The fifth National Conservation
Congress is being held at Washing
ton, d. G., November Is, 10 and
20. 1t is estimated that in the
next few months the fight for the
protection of the country's forests
and waterways will command the
attention of the nation and that the
question Of State rights is to play an
Important part in the coming combat.
The Officials of the Conservation
congress are concerned over activities
in the West in the interest of state
ownership and control of the ma
'tional forests and waterways. Sc
great is the clamor in some circle;
that it is understood that the con-
.servation interests realize the i'm
portance Of definite steps to prevent
the states from wrestling the control
of these resorces from the Federal
Government.
