Already much has been accom-
plished. In accepting so promptly,
even il with due reservations, the
good Offices of Brazil, Chile and the
Argentine, President Wilson gave
the very best proof of his sincere
desire for peace. One needs only to
recall the difference in 1898. Then
the British Ambassador made prof
fer of friendly services to prevent
the war with Spain, but it was po-
litely declined by President McKin-
ley. Mr.. Wilson could. in consist
ency, do no less than welcome the
approach Of the South Americans,
says the New York Evening Post.

tiating q series Of treaties aiming to

hostility into actual war. Such Il
breathing space was offered our gov

itself of it. This was fine and
magnanimous thing, as the prompt
approval of the English and French
press witnessed; and President Will
son must have seen how ready his
own countrymen are to hold up his
hands in every reasonable effort to
ground arms in Mexico.
Most welcome ANA wholesome and
timely also is the instant effect OF his
action throughout South America. It
came just in the nick of time. For

If war with Mexico had been reSuiv-
ed upon, for whatever reason and
with whatever disayowals OF selfish
purposes on our part, We should have
been denounced up and down South
America as a Nation of hypOeriticai
land grabbers. But row all this will
be stilled, for it is in the hands of
South Americans that we have, as it
were, placed the keeping of our
honor, with the task of avoiding war
with Mexico, if that be possible. The
effect will surely be to create a
great and favorable revulsion of
sentiment in South America.
Even in distraught Mexico the re-
suit must be to revive confidence in
the forbearance and good will OF
the United States government. The
present, surely, is the moment for
intelligent and patriotic Mexicans to
assert themselves. They must sec

A Government for Corporations

Our statute book is bursting with
laws that permit. protect and other
wise affect corporations and big
business, yet farming is by far the
bigges. business in Texas, but there
is no, line in the enactments Of
the legislature authorizing cooper
alive transactions pccessarv to carry
on the business Of farming.
BY way of illustration we will
mention an instance where such
laws are much needed. The farm
a.a want to own and operate cot
ton gins on the cooperative plan,
dividing such profit OF loss as may
result from operation on a patron
age basis, but we have no statutes
covering such cases. Our laws pro-
vide for the formation Of cor.
portation and division Of profit on
a basis Of investment. We have
several gins operating on the cum
bersome msthols necessary to reach
a cooperative plan and much econ
|omy has resulted. Where q sufil-
cient number of farmers join togeth-
er and the risk and expense Of Sc
curing patronage is taken out, the
gins can be operated more cheaply.
All machinery used in preparing
farm products for the market, por-
table or stationary. should be owned
i by the farmer. Many millions Of
dollars can DO saved to the farmers
in this way All that is needed is
