and American property was destroyed
ia Mexico?
The Chicago Tribune answers ths
question this way:
"A murder may be an act o.
violence, one such as may occur in
any American city. What occurred
in Tampico was at the instigation Of
recognized authority. 1t was directed,
rot against an individual, but against
the dignity OF the American nation,
contemptuously and insolently so, for
the purpose OF holding up the rep
resentatives of the nation to the
derision of Mexicans.'
However. all this may be, while
standing by what Is now being done,
there are excellent Americans wh5
take the position that had Mr.. Taft.
in the first instance, and Mr. Wilson
in the second instance, been more
positive with the Mexicans, the Mexi-
cans would have been more careful
as to Americans and their property
and would have had too high a respect
for the Stars and Stripes to have
dared to give such offense as that just
given at Tampico.
The Mexicans read the statement
of Col. William J. Bryan, that there
should be no war while he was secI2
tGry of state, accepted that as the final
declaration and policy of the United
states; and presumed thereon. In
consequence they have enormously IN
fsrred that. however insulting or darn
aging their acts, there would follow
only communications in writing an
he oral protests of diplomacy.
The fact that warships are on the
way to enforce, if necessary, WASH

Mexicans that Washington is not to
be fouted Unfortunately, and Score.
tary Bryan Is not to be taken literally
In all he says:
The best service that Washing on
could have for Mexico Is the dis.
patching of the warships, whether or
not Mexico obeys the Maye salute or
der. Mexico needed a singing face
siapping from Washington to bring
Huerta, Villa. Carranza & Co. to their
senses. Following the Wilson order
to the warships, Mexico and the Mex
can situation will tone down consld-
erably to the benefit of all concerned,
particularly to the benefit of Mexico,
federals. rebels, bandits and all.
