amendment to the state Constitution IN

THE COLORADO WAR.
IT'S Origin and ITS sinews Are From the
Outside.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN--Str. One
fact should be made plain to all readers
of THE Sun, and that is the labor war"
IL not in the proper sense of the term
Colorado's war.
II is well known that a majority Of the
men composing the convention that called
the strike were not and never had been
employees of coal operators In this State.
but were brought In from adjoining States,
owing to the inability of the leaders to in
duce sufficient number OF union m.ners
at work In Colorado mines to participate
in the meeting. And II Is equally well
known that every one Of the 'lead"rs' in
the troubles that have followed the calling
al the strike are residents. sem here
from the Indianapolis headquarters OF the
unCn. And every dollar used in support
ing the strikers. paying for guns ainnunl-
ton. &c. has come from outside the State
supplied from the treasury of the national
organization, and collected by assessing
every union coal miner In the United
states.
Al the time OF calling the strlk, less
than 10 per cent. OF the men at work in
the various coal camps of Colorado were
union men. apparently we'll satisfied with
their Jobs: but. having been defeated In
West Virginia and other States the leaders
OF the United Mine Workers realized that
something must be done II their organize
ton was to survive, and Colorado with Its
many thousands OF non-union coal miners
offered an inviting field. Another reason
for selecting this state was. possibly. an
empty State treasury. Under four years
Of Shafroth's administration Of State af-
fairs n surplus of $500. 900 in the treasury
had been converted into a deficit OF con-
siderably more than a million. and the
present Governor would have been unable
to. put the State troops in the field had
not the bankers OF the State come to the
rescue and loaned the State all the money
SO far used in the effort to preserve the
peace.
To sum up IL the United States Gov
eminent or the various state Governments
cannot or will not prevent the shipment
OF men and arms into one of the States to
make war upon Its citizens and destroy
their property, and permits tho collection
OF money from citizens of other States to
carry on the war. should not the Govern
ment come to the aid OF that State and
assist II In every way possible to restore
law and order7 8.

The Wet and the Dry.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: From
the earliest known times men have been in
the habit OF refreshing themselves with
wine or alcohol In some shape or form.
And II is safe TO say that at tho present
day at least 10 per cent continue so 10
refresh themselves. the vast majority in
moderation
IL is also safe TO say that such refresh
ment, far from injuring their health, pro

day world man really requires some slim

The Outlook for Mediation.

General CABRANZA has never got I've.
yond Il perfunctory assent to mediation
lin principle" The proposal for an
armistice he fatty rejected. and now he
balks at the conference Of all parties In
interest. While he is willing to have
the mcdiators compose the differences
between the United states Government
and General HuERTA. II they can. he IL
not willing to have the n,ediatOrs In
tervene in the war between the Con-
stitutiOnalists and the Huerta regime.
That must be fought out to the bitter
end, because the Constitutionallsts have
the upper hand and expect to triumph
and set up their own Government.
Nevertheless. the mediators intend to
continue their labors. nor will they con-
fine the discussion when they meet rep
resentatives Of the United States and
General HUrRrA In conference to the
Tampico incident and the occupation OF
Vera Cruz. 1t L. their purpose to have
the disturbed state Of Mexico fully con
sidered and to propose a way out Of the
maze which all factions may follow tn
the establishment Of a Government that
the United States will recognize. With
the Constitutionalists not represented
at the conference this would he an I'M
dertaking from which any but honora-
Bile and courageous men might recoil.
Meanwhile the insurgents would press
their advantage In the field. and Gen
ernl HuERTA would resist them and
continue his preparations for war with
the United States.
Each party to this remarkable sit
uation hopes that time will fight on
its side. The Constituencies count
upon supreme military triumph
while the conference Is sitting; Gen
eral HrERTA. relieved by the armistice
from opposing the forces Of the United
States, may be able to keep the insur-
gents out Of Tampico and check an in
vasion Of the SOUTH while mt the same
time he presents his ease at the confer
pnce through the able diplomats Of his
selection; and President WILSON. hav-
ing deprived General HUERTA Of the
customs revenues Of Vera Cruz and
stationed warships at every port In
Mexico tn discourage importations OF
war material. awaits the long deferred
crumbling and collapse OF the dicta-
tors power. 1t IL by no means fan
tastic idea that the medlators will be
Indispensable before the end comes.
whatever the end may he. II Is Of good
portent that they are persistent AMI
optimistic. Time has It's surprises,
and time may Ike lighting on the side OF
| the mediators.
