Minister Gardens Alleged Statement

Well may there be incredulity, as eX-
pressed by the London press, as TO the
truth of the report from Mexico Caty
that Sir Lionel Garden, the British MIN
lister at that capital, In an interview eX-
planatory of his action in presenting his
credentials to the Huerta government.
said that he was inclined to believe that
the United States did not fully appre-
ciate the seriousness of conditions IN
Mexico which, in his opinion, were due
to such a lack of accord between the
government and the people and such
diversity of aspirations among the revo-
lutionists that no one element could be
expected to dominate the situation. Such
a statement, however personal and un-
official, is an astonishing departure from
the province of a foreign minister. in
speaking of another power, and especial
ly so in the case of u diplomatic officer
newly arrived at his post.
1t is within the right of the British
government to recognize the Huerta ad-
ministration, and Sir Lionel Garden was
undeniably acting correctly according to
his instructions when he presented his
credentials and established official rela
tons. The confirmation from London
of his action refers merely to this course
and has no reference whatever to his al
legged remarks. AS the case stands, there
fore, the question of serious moment is
whether he in his personal capacity has
uttered sentiments for which he holds
no official instructions and which carry
him beyond his legitimate field of &C
tivity. If his utterance is verified it may
be assumed that the British government
will repudiate 1t.
There is at this stage no reason to
doubt Englands good faith toward the
United States in the matter of dealing
with the Mexican situation, and presum-
ably when the matter is called to the at
tention of the foreign office at London,
as 1t should and probably will be at
once. Great Britain will take occasion
to disavow any suggestion that it pos
sesses a superior knowledge of conditions
in Mexico or a more accurate under
standing of them or that it is in better
position to deal with the Mexican crisis
than the United States. This govern
ment could not tolerate such a sugges-
ton coming officially from any other
power Until the alleged statement of
the British minister at Mexico City is
put to the test and submitted to an off,
cial review at London there is no occa-
sion for excitement or apprehension.

A Hero.

The boy who stood upon the deck
Which burned, has gone his way.
But heroes new appear to check
Lifes cynical display.
A speaker hired a hall and spoke
To emptiness profound.
At last applause the silence broke.
An usher held his ground.
He smote his palms with lusty Nigh
To wake the slumbering few
Who gathered in the hall that night
And sat the speaking through.
He cheered and sounded like a crowd
And then walked forth alone.
Like many heroes, true and proud,
Unthanked and scarcely known.
