The country. of course. is with the

We may wonder that matters nave

ton has been perilous during all that
time An explosion might have oc-
CURED any day.
In fact. many things have occurred
which have divided sentiment in this
country as To President wilson's pol
icv. In some quarters his inaction has
been appiauded. In other quarters II
has been condemned. But. unmoved
lv criticism, he has laid, and pursued,
mis- own course. and taken all risks.
But all must applaud his stand on
the Tampico incident About that no
man holding his office could, with
+afety TO his reputation. have taken
any other stand. And Mr.. Wilson took
not only the right stand. but did so
18th the proper firmness. He acted in
nd responsibility.
Nor ala ne act upon Hedisoy' VI VIZ

than that would have been not only
an Injustice to the American COM
iuander. but sort of affront itself TO
the Stars and Stripes.
It Is wholly beside the question to
suggest that the Mexicans had grown
careless from observing our protracted
patience and did not believe We could
be provoked to take hold of them If
such was the case 1t testified little to
their knowledge of us. or to their ap-
praisement of existing conditions.
The fact is that an affront was Of

the President took cognizance of 1t.

It Is fortunate for US that Congress
IS in session. Whatever complications
may arise, whatever tho Immediate fu-

promptly by both the executive branch
and the legislative branch of the gov

Indiana.

The bull moosers of Indiana put their
best foot foremost in naming Mr.. BeT-
eridge for the Senate. He is not only
their strongest man. but one of the pill
lars of the national party. He is probably
their partys most eloquent speaker. He
stands very near to Mr.. Roosevelt, and
when speculation plays about the per-
sonnel of the next bull moose national
ticket his name for second place leads all
the rest. His nomination would have
been more attractive than that OF Gov
Johnson two years ago.
Likewise did the Hoosier bull moosers
do the right thing in making their plat
form express frankly the foremost pur-
poses of the party. The recall as af-
fecting the judiciary is there in the plain
est terms. That, more than anything
else is bull moosery blown in the bottle.
Where that appears the mixture is gen
uine Platform utterances, II is true,
are just now the subject of some division,
but that humor will pass. Platforms
should be specific, and the promises should
be kept A good deal on the subject will
be heard from the stump this year.
Likewise did Mr. Beveridge consult his
partys best interests by accepting its
senatorial nomination. His candidacy
should develop the present proportions of
the bull moose movement In Indiana
Elsewhere recent contests have shown
loss of numbers for the movement since
the presidential campaign, and the repub-
rcans assert that a similar change has
taken place in the Hoosier state. Mr.
Beveridge's candidacy Will be the test
He assisted in the organization Of the
movement, local and national: and not
single bull mooser now Of that faith will
hesitate to declare himself in November
under Mr. Beveridges leadership.
With Mr. Shively the democratic candi-
date and Mr.. Beveridge the bull moose
candidate the repu blicans should feel
under obligations to make a nomination
of equal merit and prominence. In fact,
no other sort Of nomination will fit the
occasion. An obscure man entered
against those men would probably cost
the party votes. and certainly all outside
interest Both Mr.. Shively and Mr.. Bev-
eridge enjoy national repute, and besides
are figuring on big things for the future.
In case of Mr.. Shivelys election he may
tee on foreign relations. Mr.. Stones health
not being robust, while Mr. Beverages
election would make him easily the most
promising and influential bull mooser
after Mr. Roosevelt
The name of Mr.. Fairbanks has not
been mentioned, and he may not care for
party leadership this year. but he is
easily the foremost Indiana republican,
and one of the cleanest and most capable
men in the party nationally considered.

The D. A. R.

One of Washingtons conspicuous and
important events and one that ordinarily
attracts wide attention throughout the
country both because of the attractive
features and the fact that it is held at
Washington. is the Continental Congress

the lofty patriotic lessons which they
aim to teach young and old Americans,

of America. In other days a few jibes for
the most part good natured. were direct

An American Capital on a National
Scale.
From the Minneapolis Tribune.

From the Minneapolis Tribune
Thousands of visitors go TO Wash
ington D. c.. every year. No one ever
heard one of those visitors hint that
the American capital was too fine. But
thousands upon thousands of those VS.
itors have been heard to express pride
in every factor which contributes to
the noble beauty of their capital.
Washington can never be the city OF
those alone who reside there. 1T is the
nations city. The nation conceives of
it on a scale. far beyond the just pro-
portions of an unofficial city of the
same size. The nation owns half of
it's property The nation reserves the
right to manage all of its property
Hence. since 1878 the nation and the
people resident within the District Of
Columbia have divided evenly the cost
Of maintaining the American capital
on a national scale.
In every Congress since this half and
half principle was adopted there have
been men who disapproved of it. Some
of them have honestly felt that the de-
velopment of a capital city on broad
and beautiful lines was a luxury for
which they had no right to tax their
constituents. Some have believed that
the people of Washington should pay
the whole cost. But the greater num-
Der who have attacked it have done
so because they did not believe in 1.-The
city beautiful" because their concep-
tion of government was that of bar
rem and unimpressive agency, because
their own lives We're empty OF the
ricn ministrations of beauty. To this
last group, generally speaking. only
one extravaganza was more utterly un
justifable than Fairgrounds. and that
was the extravaganza of city planning.
These men have their following, of
course The four bills which they
have pressed through the House of
sentatives-intended to weaken
permanently the half and half principle
indicate that this following is large
enough to threaten seriously the well
fare of the capital. But let there be
no misconception of that following. 1t
is stronger in the House of Repre-
sentatives than anywhere else in the
country. Among the people who
represented in the lower house it has
pra actically no following at all.
Minnesota believes that state and ma
ton are rich enough to make their
capitals clean, healthful. beautiful.
dgnified She has raised her standard
high in the noble building she has pro-
vided for the state officials. She looks
now to her representatives in the ma
tional Senate to reflect her larger and
finer conception Of the National Capt.
tai. She believes that half the cost of
maintaining the government of the
District of Columbia is not too much
to pay for the nations complete con-
troll over the nations seat of govern
ment.

Deliver Mexico!
From the New York World.

Whether Congress acts upon the
Mexican question today or month
from today. the motives and purposes
of the American people should be set
forth by that body in language that
will admit of no dispute. We have no
quarrel with the Mexican people Aside
from Il few chronic jingoes, there is
no public sentiment favoring war If
force must be employed south of the
Rio Grande now or later, it should be
in support OF a policy as generous as
that which was proclaimed in Cuba
and as noble as that which the Presi-
lent himself has outlined, and for
nothing else To take measures for
the deliverance Of Mexico from the
grip of a murderous tyranny is not to
make war in the usual meaning of the
term. 1t is to police our own neighbor-
hood. 1t is to restore constitutional
government. 1t is to punish usurper
who Is as hateful to his own country
men as he has become menacing to
ourselves.

And left the world to dreaming;
And even in the moons white glow

To anger or to shame them.

The American Purpose.

From the New York Sun
1t need only be added that neither in
the eyes of our government nor of the
American people will any hostility be
directed against Mexico as nation
The only foemen we shall know are
those who have been exploiting the
unhappy country and it's populati tion
for their own selfish ends. In this
spirit we shall approach reluctantly
but serenely the ordeal that may lie
before US with clean hearts and un-
selfish purpOSe.

The Mexican Crisis.
ON the Philadelphia Ledger

President Wilson has been firm and
definite in his attitude in the present
crisis, which the contemptuous obduracy
of Huerta has produced, and has the
whole nation behind him. The honor of
our flag is involved. The President

are at his command to compel respect
for our national honor.
