Time for Detective Burns to Act.

Detective William J. Burns has reached the turn
in the roads For several years past he has been ad
vertsing himself the greatest living seuth Posi-
bly, his boast is well founded; possibly he was really
responsible for falling the dynamting ironworkers-
his principal claim to fame-but the time has arrived
for him to show his hand to prove some of his as
scrtions of achievement
Burns has been proclaiming through the press for
murder of Mary Phagan factory girl in Atlanta. is
innocent. He has gone further, and openly
negro now in jail of the crime According to his
own testimony. Burns has positively known these
things for weeks past; and yet Frank would have
marched to the galiows ten days ago if nothing but
Burns had stood between.
Burns was hired by friends of Frank to disprove
the evidence on which ne was convicted There was
to believe that Frank was victim of public
camor the victim of verdict rendered the result
of intimidation Months have elapsed since Burns
dertook the task and weeks have passed since he
nounced a complete solution. Yet no step has been
taken clear Frank of the hideous accusation to
bring the negro whom Burns accuses trial for the
crime. The moose was withdrawn from Franks neck
by legal technicality. with thanks to Burns. Frank
would now be moldering in the despised grave of a
felon if none but Burns had interpOsed His life is
yet in jeopardy 1t is the time for Burns to disclose
his evidence. The first move of the merest amateur
would have been to accuse the negro imprisoned a,
Franks accomplice.
The public is disposed to believe that Frank was
fairly tried and convicted Burns reputation rests
on proving Franks innocence and convcting the real
murderer, as he has so often boosted he can do.

Huerta, the Diplomat.

Huerta is more diplomat than murderer, differing
thus from Villa. Discardmg the concocted, imagna-
tive or self-magnfying reports of the sensational
special correspondents" the conclusion forced that
Huerta in the present crisis has well preserved his
pose and has dealt with Americans who are noncom-
baants sanely and sensbly or least with selfish
regard for his own welfare A calm examination into
recent history reveals instances in which outrages
have been committed against Americans either by
Huertas orders connivance passiyty. Even in the
case of the arrest of the from the Dolphin the
evidence shows that the incident aroused Huertas in
dignation and that he at sought to make amends
And the latest reports that he accepts over
lures for mediation without reserve. The conviction
is being forced upon that Huerta at least has sense
enough to meet the United States as a foeman upon
civilized basis, however much OF the savage he may
be toward his enemies in his country, and how
extreme he may be in his expressions OF oathng
of this country in private conversation.
Our government must therefore, not relax for a
moment its policy of dealing with Huerta willy
and finished diplomat Lacking the physical force be-
hind him he has sought constantly-and with the ut
most success for year past-to ouwit us. stay
hand under various preteNt and to keep in at
titude OF watchfu waiting for his next move.
That is our attitude at this moment. and it can
easily be foreseen that il suits the willy dictators
purpose he will strive automatically keep there
for weeks come; and again. if it suits his purpose,
he may after prolonged negotiations yield just enough
to prevent marching to Mexico City. A little
reflection leads the inevitable conviction that, after
cessation of hostile demonstrations, lasting weeks
President Wilson, matter how firm he may be in
his present determination will be slow order at
tack the capital of vastly inferior power merely
because its seconstituted ruler refuses to abdicate
Our fleet went to Mexico to punish Huerta for re-
usng to pay proper respect TO the United States as
nation. At the first blow three South American
public tender their good Offices to the United States
to peacefully settle its conflict with Mexico. The
United States accepts first and then Huerta. the cul-
prit accepts Chastizement is suspended Should the
cuprt refuse TO relinqush the ruership of Mexico,
as it is reported the administration will insist upon,
the United States, weeks hence Justify resumP-
ton of the painful duty of foggng him for lack Of
respect? In other words how much further we
away from a settlement of the Mexican problem than
we were before the Dolphins men arrested?

helping the laborer. to give him some
thing to do, and the more money they
spend in that way the better I like il.

among the poor and deserving people.
The best way to help a man always is
to give him some work to do and pay
him well for doing the work. But you
gentlemen over there do not seem to
have got that into your political econ
omy.
