The Mexican Situation Conn
pared 10 the Turkish
Incident.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE oNE.)

In the Tampico incident, quick apologies
were made by the local authorities, and by
the Mexican government, but Mayo, Wilson
and Bryan were not satisfied.
They demanded salute to the flag, and
because Huerta would not yield, they sent
troops ashore, at Vera Cruz, to seize the port
and the town.
Why didn't they cut up like that when
Turkey fired on the flag?
Because Germany as 6ac6 of Tu1hey!
So, our martinez Mayo, and our inexperi-
>enced Wilson and Bryan have got us into
a mess that we are ashamed of: we make war
at Vera Cruz, because of the momentary ar
rest of trespassing blue jackets, and we eat
humble pie at Smyrna, when our trespassing
blue jackets are fired at with solid shot-and
driven off
The flag had not been insulted at Tampco
yet we demanded a salute.
The flag acas insulted at Smyrna, yet we
do not ask either an apology, or salute.
Evidently the two able lawyers-Scott and
Wambaugh-who have been employed to run
our State Department, have advised the Presi-
dent and the Secretary that our vessezs are
outside their rights, when they enter the port
Of country that is en- q state of qca4.
Mexico was In state of war, and Admiral
Mayo did wrong to send his men ashore
After all the blood shed at Vera Cruz, after
all the useless expenditure of our money, and
after all the different tales that have been
told, President Wilson has brought Funston
and his troops away.
They did not get the salute to the flag.

Iull OF righteous noise, full of virile African
attluvla-which, being interpreted means.
"Nigger- stink
Eloquent speeches were made: hot resolu-
lions were adopted; and every time that Pro-
dessor Woodrow Wilson's name was men
TONED, that name was hooted, with unani-
nous and resembling boots.
Alas Our Southern papers do not tell us
enshackled Democrats all that happens at the
North
Yes, Brethren, those Republican negroes
not only hooted 'the greatest President we
have had since the days of Jefferson" but
they gave their reasons for doing so.
Those reasons are reported in the Wash
1ngton Post, and other Northern sheets, but
not by our progressive Democratic papers of
the Solid South
What were those reasons?
Irotter declared that President Wilson had
broken faith with the Republican negroes.
Irotter reminded his indignant audience
that he had been the leader who went with a
delegation of Republican negroes to see
Woodrow Wilson, at Sea Girt, in 1912, when
the said Woodrow was the anxious candidate
for the Presidency.
Trotter alleged that Woodrow Wilson had
assured these colored Republicans that if
they would support him, he would see to it
that there would be no discrimination, no race
prejudice, and that the negro would be given
the full benefit of the 18th and 18th Amend
ments, and Of the Federal laws made in pur-
suance of those Reconstruction Amendments!
That was fine promise for white Demo-
crat to be making to Republican blacks wasn't
it?
If that secret had leaked out, during the
campaign, the Southern Democrats would
have voted for Roosevelt.
At least, they would never have sanctioned
that bargain by voting for Wilson.

universe?
Have eve" no starving people here at

It is simply amazing to see how easy it is
for hysteria to get hold of some of our edi-
tors, charity brokers and professional philan-
thropists.
Rockefeller steals billion dollars from the
exploited classes IN this country. and does it
by purchasing Congressman, Judges, legisla-
lures and newspapers: then, having gorged
himself on loot, and brought millions Of
Americans to the point Of starvation. he loads
up ship with food and sends it to Belgium
The millionaires of New York and sur
rounding cities, grown rich on the spoils of
class-leglsation, buy sac million Christmas
toys for the Belgians. and our Government
lends a ship to take Santa Claus across the
ocean.
The Literary Digest says, "Let us send
10000 barrels of flour to Belgium at the ear
lest possible moment
Why not send the flour to the hungry men,
women and children Of the slums of New
York and Philadelphia?
From what point of view is it more of
charitable duty to feed Bel9ians than to feed
Americans?
What is the slobber-gosh theory of spurn-
ing the ragged child and the despairing man,
and the starving woman, here on10nq orr
seZres?
Does the Christ who fed the multitude that
was next to him care less for the hungry out
casts of the United States than he does for
the Belgians?
Let Great Britain feed Bezqimni
England is the richest country on the
globe, and she got Belgium into this scrape.
Germany asked for leave to 90 through
Belgium, and Belgium refused at the dicta-
t10n OF England, as well as in accordance with
treaty
Both England and Belgium knew what
would happen: both nations counted the cost
of resisting the unjust German demand.
England is honor bound to take care of
the Belglans, and she is doing it, Let her
continue to do it. That is her duty. not ours.
Beware of the charity brokers who are so
eager to get their little hands on your little
ducats.
Beware of hysterical collectors. whose hvs-
terra means money to the mysteries.
Beware of slobber- gosh
For PHYS sake remember that the Euro
pean War has reduced more Americans to a
state Of distress and want, than all the Bel
gians that are alive.
There are more mouths to fill, right here
at home, than charity will ever find and feed.
You know that, as we'll as [ do Every
one Of our cities is thronged with the home

not get work, the men who steal rather than
starve, and girls who offer themselves to
passers-by on the street. rather than perish
In their cherries dens.
The Northern papers give heartrending ac-
counts of these terrible conditions
Therefore, let your charity start at home,
and let it stay there, until your own flesh
