The Making of Revolution.

While much Importance has been
attached TO the disclosures that big
business In the United States and
England has had n finger in the revo-
lutionary broth in Mexico. 1t may be
we'll for tho Senate to investigate.
The whole truth will not hurt. what
ever It may be
OF one thing, however. We can be
sure. Big business Is not the only,
nor Yet the controlling. cause OF tho
revolution in Mexico. Big business
can, and sometimes does. buy lead
ers and provide them with money
but unless there be idespread dis
satisfaction among the masses there
will be no followers, and without fol
lowers there will lie no revolution
Whatever may have influenced Car
ranza--and his motives are proha-
bly, miSed--it is the unjust asrarian
laws, the system of pconage. the
knowledge that the poor cannot turn
TO the law for Justice, and many other
wrongs 10 the poems and other poor
that has Influenced them And they
are the soldiers in the ranks. They
are making the revolution. and max
ing II success.

Mexico and tho Balkans.

While we are condemning George
Fred Williams for speaking his mind
plainly as regards conditions in the
Balkans. and the method In which
they are handled by the European
powers, let il not be forgot that a
certain European minister in Mexico
city was not too reticent some time
ago about the manner in which we
were handling the Mexican situation.
Let il not he forgot, also. that,
though European nations have been
criticizing the United States for It's
Mexican policy, they have been con-
sistently bungling things in the Bal
