Well all stand by the president, Of

wen all stand by the president, OF
course.
But keep in mind that the presi-
dent doesn't want war and is trying
to settle that Mexican muss without
war.
: And the way to get back of him is
to get back of his efforts to keep out
of an unnecessary war.
Senators Lodge and Root talked
patriotism and were for getting back
of the president.
But they were getting back of him
so as to try and push him into
fight.
The fellows who are shouting loud
est for war are the ones who won't
risk spot on their hides to the bull
lets from Mex rifles.
But they'll stir up our young men,
fill them with the war spirit and let
them do the dying and getting killed.
And the soldiers who do the fight
ing won't get any of that land after
we take it under our flag and call it
American territory.
We ought to see to it that the peo-
pie of Mexico get their own land and
not help American millionaires to
take it away from them.
If we MUST have war, and the
state militia MUST go to Mexico
why, then,
Let's first send the Colorado mill
tia, the Michigan militia and the West
Virginia militia.
Every blamed one of them.
We'd hate like the dickens to sacri-
fee any American lives over a rum
pus in Mexico, BUT,
II there's no way out of it, we'd
rather have those militiamen down
there fighting Huerta than up here
fighting our own workingmen.
And if we run out of militia, then
let's draft all the gunner and slug
gers of those fake detective agencies.
BY the way, did you notice by
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-04-22

PEOPLE AND THINGS
ests and. permits to carry guns?
Looks as if Big Business has a pri-
vate army in Chicago that is bigger
than the entire state militia.
Wonder who's, back of all this war
talk?
Well, Hearst has a big ranch in
Mexico. So has Harrison Gray Otis.
Likewise Charley Taft. Also John
Hays Hammond-and Lord only
knows who else.
And the RockefeIlers have oil, and
the Guggenheims have smelters and
mineral concessions.
It's worth millions to that bunch if
they can stampede Uncle Sam into a
war of conquest with Mexico.
And the war will cost all of US
several millions day-to say Moth
ing of the loss of life.
But-business is businessAas they
say in Wall street.
BY the way, have you noticed how
all of the papers have exaggerated
the truth in the scare heads and war
editions?
How many extras did you buy?
Gracious aliVe-What is happening
Ito Chicago?
Just think of tia newspaper gun
man actually convicted of man
slaughter.
The next thing Mayor Harrison
MIGHT do would be to revoke the
licenses of a few police officers.
But getting back to that war
don't get excited. Keep cool. Wait a
minute. Keep your shirt on. There's
plenty of time to annex Mexico.
Hearst's ranch will keep.
