chasing they induce the sale OF these

states mentioned. somewheres near 70
per cent OF those using It. and expecting
to use II in the future, have voted for

Folks who are trying to keep themselves
posted upon the Kaleidoscope unfolding Of the
great war drama must have noted the gradual
subsistence Of the ratrocty'' stories War is no
paror game, but, on the contrary, is full Of cru
elites barbarlties and privatlons, and the num-
Der Of innocent victims must continue TO in
crease. Several things will. however. help TO
explain why the bitter ordinations and recrim-
nations of the eatlier stages, instead Of becom-
ing more fast ane furious. are occupying less
and less time and attention on both sides.
1t is quite possible that people become used
to the most terrible experiences as they become
more common. which when first met with or
witnessed evoke abhorrent protest. II Is prob
able, too, that as the fighting has settled down
TO more systematic lines, better discipline has
been effected and stronger control main
tanned over the troops Yet, above and beyond
all. horrible as wars destruction Is, the conolu-
sion Is forced that most OF the atrocity' stories
either grossly exaggerated and overdrawn
or pictured rare exceptions and excuses as the
general rule. War itself is a huge atrocty upon
mankind whole-the only wonder Is that
II can be waged upon such a colossal scale and
at the time Kept almost free from the in
dlvdual atrocities that necessary part

Evaouating Vera Cruz,


The wheel OF fortune in Mexico has taken
no queerer turn than that which makes conci-
denee OF the governments compliance' with our
demands at Vera Cruz and Villas declaration OF
wargcn Carransa. 1t will be remembered that
American troops seized Vera Cruz to make sure
OF having the ruling powers at Mexico City meet
all our demands. II now appears from the de-
crees issued by General CarranEa that all the
requests made by President Wilson have been
duly granted and, very naturally, the president
is looked to TO complete, the agreement by re-
calling the troops. Failing to do so might be
mlsconstrued in Mexico and seized upon as an
other pretext for grievance against the United
States At the same time II hardly seems wise
to evacuate until there has been q definite and
satisfactory alignment OF the leaders in the
recent, indeed the present. factional feud. The
whole purpose OF sending our troops there in
the first place may be defeated at last II their
removal precipitates another civil war. ! or
course, the hope is that hostilities betwaen
villa and Carranza may be averted but hope has
counted for little in Mexican affairs. Fractional
fighting seems to be one of the inevitable con-
sequences Of every alliance finally to determine
which rival is to have the larger share OF the
spells of formerly united exploits.

A Forceful Reminder.


One paragraph in the democratic tariff plank
OF 1912 read:
We recognize that system OF tariff taxation
Is intimately connected with the business Of the
country, and favor the ultimate attainment Of
the principles advocate by legislation that will
not injure destroy legitimate industry
That our system Of tariff taxation is inti-
mately connected with the business Of the coun-
try no one will deny. NOR need We question the
democrats sincerity OF purpose to avoid harm
ing legitimate industry, but we must see by now
that even the effort OF attainment has worked
very grave injury. In the first year of the new
wilson Underwood tariff law despite the war,
we imported from other countries about $780,
100000 worth of manufactured products more
than during the last year of the republican
tariff.
What does this mean but the displacement
of that much of our industry at homer Sup
pose we bought all our manufactured products
abroad, then all our domestic Industries except
to supply foreign trade would close down.
There must, therefore, have been a tremendous
closing down in the aggregate of home indus
tries as result OF this increased Importation
No wonder the late election went so strongly
against the democrats in all the Industrial cen
ters This country has grown great under
fair protective tariff, and its people, manifestly
want tariff that protects their own industries
rather than sacrifice them for the benefit Of
their foreign competitors.

Certain democratic newspapers have sneered

disclosed in the defeat OF Governor Glynn OF
New York, evidently Forgetting that but for
Tammany's returning her fourteen Gotham rep
resentatiyes the national administration would
have about lost control OF the lower house Of

'ity TO the party. Murphy and Tammany may
claim to represent its chief asset, 1t is very
well to rail at them for moral effect. but prac-
teal democratic leaders know that the old Tiger
is not to be discarded Prior>to the election the
New York World made much of an eplgrammatic
slogan that if Governor Glynn loses he may
blame Tammany, II he wins he may thank Pres
