Discretion in Financial Protector ate

The United States should not ard probably does
not need Mr.. Zelayas advice. Yet there was some
thing in that strenuous statesman's parting words
which deserves to be borne well in mind That is
that we should act with caution in assuming any
responsibility, moral or other, for the finances Of
neghbOring states particularly when there is an in
clinaton to evade just obligations
That does not mean that should have nothing
to do with them, however, and it would he regret
table for this country 10 act upon the principle Of
entire avoidance. few years ago a measure OF
American supervision was established over the Gus
toms revenues Of Santo Domingo, at that country $
request: with the result that the foreign trade at
Dominican ports has more than quadrlped and i'm
mense improvement has been made in fiscal condi-
tons. Aid recently given in similar fash
ion to Liberia with highly gratifying results.
1t is legitimate and commendable to perform such
services despite the predictions Of ENHANCEMENT and
disaster which were so freely made when they we're
first undertaken. But it is equally incumbent upon
us to be so crcumspect in doing it that we shall
not on the one hand even seem to domineer over or
cOerce our smaller neghbors nor on the other hand
entail upon ourselves legal or moral responsibility
for their acts A financial protectorate unwlsely
made might be embarrassing as one of political
or military nature.

Fraudulent Thought Products.

Some of the statesmen who break into the leave
to-print" section of THE Congressional Record are
complaining because their speeches are net properly
advertised They want tie editor Of THE Record
to publish the first page an index showing where
such and such gem OF undeivered eoquence may
be found.
But why should the government give further
certifcation to fraudulent thought products by thus
indexing them. Leaves to print belong In the stor-
age warehouse and Congress shows faint sense of
the proprieties in buyng them in the back sections
of The Record" 1t would be simple honesty TO
suppress these false transcripts Of debate. But If
Congress cannot bring itself to do that, the next
best thing would be to issue each session special
volume Of these near speeches" Then nobody
would be msled into reading them even by lure OF
a scare head index.

The Pirates of Hoboken.

q The interesting sport of piracy has moved It's OPP
erations considerably since the days of the buc-
cancers 1t has lost its nautical flavor and has be-
come almost exclusively IL land sport, We believe,
with banks railroads and government contracts as
its object SO the wild and stormy tale of our North
River pirates, who stole tug and car float on
Christmas night, possesses a charmingly antique
favor.
Boarding defenceIess car float may not match
up with the best traditions of the old era. But the
grandeur and courage of pirates have been gener-
ally overrated Day in and day out it was sordld
business and we suspect that well laden car float
would have appealed TO any buccaneer quite as
much as golden galleon-prOvided it had the stun
aboard
In better style was the regardless fashion in which
the pirates abandoned their craft The float they
set adrft to sink flock Of motor boats at their
moorings The tug they cast off with sea-cocks OPEN
tiIler Dashed and full steam ahead This is quite in
the wantony destructive mood of some of the best
masters Of the art.
Admirers of the old romance may object TO this
comparison. But fear it is all too accurate.

British Troops on the Mexican Frontier.

The announcement of the landing or brltSh
marines for service on the Mexican frontier may
not be as startling as it might seem to the unre-
fcctnc. For it is on British soil that they are
landed and if TO it their activities are conhned the
service NAV be salutary. That particular territory
has LONG been one of the least orderly parts OF the
British Empire and has been Il base of operations
for various insurgent attempts in Mexico and Gua-
temala If these marines simply prevent niouslel-
fiig. gun-rInning and the like, and maintain neu-
tralitv as our troops do along the Rio Grande, they
Will do well.
Nevertheless. it is somewhat disappointing that
so little has vet been realized from President VIII
sons policy toward Mexico that this action by Great
Britain is reckOned necessary. 1t may be that
~Huerta's power is crumbng"; but either the crum-
bling process is very slow there are concurrenty
arising other influences forces and complications
which make the net situation no less than before
source of anxiety and annoyance and, in the pres
emf instance, to have called for one OF the most
unusual if not ominous performances in the whole
tangled drama.
For while as we have said, the intent and the
actual achievement of this landing of marines may
he benefcent there must be recognized an unpleaS
ant possibility in the sending of European troops to
the American continent on account of the disturbed
condition of an American republic. 1t may be neces
sary but the necessity is greatly to be regretted
