It is inconceivable that the steady advance of the northern rebels, the activity of the Zapataistas at the gates of Mexico City and the plots directed al the life of President Huerta can long continue without unseating the dictator.
 The dogged determination of this despot is one of the remarkable poli- tical incidents of our times. His con- tnued refusal to abdicate demon stIates tho insignificant force of public opinion in Mexico.
 Whatever may be the view Ameri- cans entertain of the Wilson policy and the Times believes the vast ma jority of our people warmly indorse the president in his refusal to resort to force-it is apparent that his plan has won support abroad.
 The London Times-traditiona | mouthpiece of the conservative ele. ment in Britain, irrespective of party ffiliations-recently declared in ar | emphatic editorial that "it has beer | widely, if not universally recognized on this side of the Atlantic that tht pacifcation of Mexico, whether by persuasion or force is an American and not a European responsibility" Particularly significant in view o the rumors that other government have manifested desire to take { hard in the specification of Mexico by f,rce is its further declaration tha ''the United States can nither dele gat" nor share its responsibility. The Times evidently has no mor' confidence in the revolutionary leaders than 1t has in Huerta.

Dr. Sloan, our efficient health officer Eos sounded a timely warning to the D, pie of Nome to boil the water be- Irre using it. This is the time of year %heI the surface water is filling the streams and taintirg every source of the citys supply. There is no me1as by which pure supply of water can b. insured till such time as the Moon- light Springs water can be deliv cred to the city. w: understand that al
 ready the MoGo'iGht water company is repairing tn. springs and getting everything in readiness to furnish Moonlight water at the earliest possi- ble moment. Till such time it is an imperative duty of all to safeguard thcms' rs ttt'ng to it that all drinking water he thoroughly boiled and that all germs which it may be carrying are destroyed. A word to the wise ought to be sufficient.
 'S DoSA'oNlOi AAtuS III HIS re- bort to the city council last night that the streets of Nome had a dirty anC filthy appearance, indicates that oul city health officer will insist upon the city being thoroughly cleaned just a, soon as conditions will permit of sucl work being done. The people of Nom, will certainly commence such actlvit. upon the part of our health officer ant will aid in improving the appearanc, and sanitary conditions of the city.

 situation in Mexico and the opinion of people in general seem to favor in such a step is the protection of Amer iCan and foreign interests which Q: dollars. Of course we have borne insults from Mexico as nation and have those of foreign countries but these things follow from the condi- state of civil war where people feel that foreign influence has had much to do in bringing about the un- {, rtunate condition in which the coun- try finds itself.
 The tendency of people is to per scnify governments and to think If nations as something apart from the people not recognizing the fundament al fact that government Is an arti- nCial affair and has no rights other than those drawn from It's population. It Is only in recent times that the duty of one people towards another people has risen to greater importance than tho duty of a nation. dynasty or poli tical state toward another. In deal ing with the Mexican question Prcsi dent Wilson has taken this more mod crn and advance view of the situation. Recognizing that Mexico was without government exercising the rights drawn from it's people and hence has ro government with any elements of stability and the facts that the peo- pie are in arms fighting desperate bat ties to re- establish their constitutional form of government. the president booking to the best interests of the people of Mexico rather than 10 this or that leader or to the protection of property rights has exercised p"'ience ard self control to a remarkable de- gree.
 The people of the United States and of foreign countries are coming to re- gard his policy not only as humane tut statesmanlike Huerta or Car ranza or any other captain of military forces does not interest us. But we cannot stand nor ought We endure that outrage, barbarous cruelty. murder and pillage take place at our very door steps. It is the people of Mexico who are getting the worst of it. It is un- dcubtedly the policy of the govern mcnt tu give the people of Mexico every opportunity to work out their cwn salvation If such can be done within reasonable time. Looking toI the future, what is needed in MexicoI Is not the substitution of one desp0tic| ruler for another; peace at such l price has no germ of hope in it. What is needed is the union of patriotic Mexican citizens in securing a con Gress and ministry which dare to take ur ill earnest such questions as land monopolies and peonagc. which will act not under but with d president, ard which. may establish such Il sys- tenn of elections which will foster and rcprcss independence. While it is right tn give d neighbor nation full time an opportunity to attend to it's own troubles, the sentiment is rapid ly crystalizing in the United States that if this chaos continues, We will, if We do not already, owe it to the people of Mexico to interfere and se- cure to them some government which will mean law and order justice, and the condition of civilization. To do this it seems that the time is about ripe when we must invade Mexico. For the conditions are such that it seems Ae- ccssary at this time to wiring a nation technically in order to help a people actually.

PREPARES To BEGIN
BENTON CASE INQUIRY
George c. Carothers Will Leave E
Paso for Chihuahua This
Morning.
CARRIES DEMAND FOR BODY

FL Paso, Tex, Feb. S-George C.
Carothers. special representative Of the
State Department. will leave here in the
morning for Chihuahua to conduct the
investigation for the United States into
the death Of William S. Benton. To
what extent Mr.. Carothers will go in
conducting his inquiry he declines to
say and will not divulse the contents of
the important messages from the State
Department
1t is said Carothers carries a demand
that the body of Benton be turned over
to his family, in order that 1t can be
examined by physicians to ascertain the
exact cause Of death. Whether Carothers
personally will examine the body at
Chihuahua could not be learned
Constitutionalists have placed a rail-
road automobile speeder at the disposal
OF Mr.. Carcthers for his trip TO Chihua-
hua.
Mr.. Carothers said today that no de-
mand had been made by the United
states on Gen. villa for the return OF
Benton's body.
British Consul Perceval, who ar
rived tonight and who will conduct the
investigation here for Great Britain
will not accompany Mr.. Carothers to
chihuahua.
The unconfirmed report that Benton's
body is still in Juarez is believed to
have some foundation. Today guards
from the constitutionalist garrison In
Juarez were placed about the residence
in Juarez where the controversy be-
tween Villa and Benton and subsequent
killing is reported to have taken place.
Mystery still surrounds the where
abouts of Gustav Bauch. the American
who was arrested February Is while
sight seeing in Juarez. He is not a
prisoner in the Juarez prisons. Neither
can he be located by the American con-
sui, newspaper men. or relatives.
Several newspaper men, with Pierre
Schon, an attorney: Gunther Lessing
representing the rebels in FL Paso; Lieut..
Col Thomas Ornaelas, and Frederic Con-
zales Cara, legal adviser 10 Col Avila,
visited the prisons at Juarez. also the
cuartels and barracks. Theye were un-
able to find any trace of Bauch.
Grave fears now are entertained by
the friends and relatives Of Bauch con-
corning his safety. II is generally be-
lieved he has been shot as a federal spy.
and that the fact is being kept quiet by
the rebel officials.

can who was in prison in Juarez when
last seen ten days ago still is unknown
to the State Department. which has
been investigating >--e case for week,
without making any progress.
