MAY SERVE As A LESSON

Many welI-meauiug Americans have been led to believe that all Mexico needs is the rule of such apostles ol liberty and true demoe- racy as the former bandit, Villa, and the former ofrice4older, Car- ranza, with the wholesale courlse.- ton of large estates and the di- vision of the land thus seized among the poor. The theory is that the AIexicans are sound and competent enough if given a fair
 chance to show what they can do under sympathetic and liberal rul-
 CTS.
 Such believers in the wisdom o-
 the untaught and the skill of the untrainsd need the object lesson
 that Mexico, governed as they de- sire or by the men they recommend
 aud with such start as they want
 shat unhappy country to have,
 would surely furnish. 1t could not
 take many years to prove that peace cannot come from the rule Of
 the ignorant and backward Indians
 of Mexico or prosperity from any system of administration which
 would make foreigners shun a country desperately n need of their money and their services. The world would soon perceive that t-e roots of 1Ieyico's ills go much de-u- CT than laws or its pcryors.o@a Of laws.
 Racial, climatic and topowara- ical conditions account for Mexico. in large part. Habits rooted iu centuries of misgovarnmeut and ia- efficiency will not be erad.cated by a change in rulers which means nothing more than the victory of one faction and the fall of another. The leaders Of the so-culcd Cousrt- tuuonalists understand the s--ua- ton well enough to resist aiL plans and reject all suggestions for peace
 which do not include the control of the central government Of Mexico by their own chiefs pending the formal election of a new president They know that possession, in their country, is all of the law, instead of only nine points out Of yeu.-Clere- land Leader

 This great fortune was all won in p~r, of North America which seemed, during most of Lord sua.ayo.a.s life, too sparsely popu- lated, too little developed, too raw and empty to permit weaIth-geL- ting on 50 vast scale The size oE ,ac strathcoua estate must strike many readers with the same sense Of ,acounterjng revelation alto ge,Ler unexpected which has been felt by numerous Americans when they learned of the immense wealth oL certain South African and South American miliioaaIrcs.
 The natural comparison made with the relatively slow develop meac o- fortunes in the early days of the United States shows that no such estates were piled up here when tLis country stood in respect to population, for example, where yauada is now. The early stages Of development in the Mississippi valley ail not make any man as rich as the Canadian Northwest @adv Donald smith.
 The explanation is that in Lord s,ra-.u-ua.s time the resources of au age of steam, electricity, highly l y-.ap.L machinery, vast accumu- -,tgas ot capital and many exam u-.5 sa. by immense undertakings u o.aar countries, w'-c all avail able for the opening of the newer parts ol Canada The same thing las happened in Argentina It is zo.u- on in South Africa.

[Rv cable 10 The Tribune. ]

Paris, April Anime. Rejane opened
her spring season at the Theatre ReJane
tonight with LIE Concert" the three-act
Viennese conjugal comedy. by Hermann
Bahr already seen in New York under
the auspices Of David Belasco and
adapted for the French stage by Pierre
Weber and Maurice Remon. Rejane made
a decided hit by the admirable way In
which she played the part of the heroine,
Marie Heink, the neglected wife OF a
fashionable musical composer, who under
pretence Of giving a concert, elopes with
one Of his lady pupils.
The true, deep, humanitarian philosophy
and practical common sense OF Nine.
Heink and her success in persuading the
guilty couple that their frivolous adj
venture is, after all, of no vital impor-
lance, because It was inspired solely by
superficial artistic frivolity and not by
profound love nor true friendship, show
Rejane's powers to perfection.
