lector Stewart said that outside OF what
the newspapers had told nothing was
known about the Antllla's cargo Lack
ing orders from Washington the Collector
was not concerned whether IL was shoes

Washington.

The plan OF the Constitutionalists was TO

PRESIDENT CONSIDERS EMBARGO ON TANPICO

OF the medating plenipotentiarie
and to the circumspection of the
American delegates.
To trent of the Interior pacifica-
ton OF Mexico in the course OF de-
liberations on difficulties OF an In
ternational character cannot be
considered as submitting the sover-
eighty of the nation to an external
influence. Said pacification Is
nect ssarlly bound up with the in
ternational questions. This has
been appreciated by the Mexican
delegation. and In setting forth the
Intentions of its Government In the
matter and In its endeavors to
bring about the pacification 1t has
been inspired by the knowledge
that without 1t no satisfactory con-
clusion can be arrived at in the
international question.

This statement was given out in reply to
the long document issued yesterday from
the Constitutionalist headquarters at Du-
range in which the Constituencies defy
the medlators to ignore them in any
settlement of the Mexican trouble.
The reference to the paclhcatlon
of Mexico which Is contained In the
delegates announcement Is evidently In
reply TO the contention set forth by Car
rama that the medators should not be
permitted to Interfere with the internal
Affairs OF Mexico Huerta's delegates
assert that the discussion OF n plan for
the restoration of peace in the southern
republic cannot be regarded as submitting
the sovereignty OF the nation TO the
external influence, while Carranze las
repeatedly asserted that the international
phases of the Mexican situation. are totally
Independent of the internal questions
with which that country has struggled for
years.
The Mexican ENJOYS reference , any
thing which migrt be construed as an
imposition from the outside" Is believed
10 be intended for the Constitutionalist
chief, and the announcement that the dele
CATION will not consent to grant hearing
in the deliberations OF the conference to
such AN element Is regarded, therefore. OF
the highest Importance.
Until this statement was issued close
observers of developments here were OF
the opinion that the only opposition which
would arise to the pan OF the Wilson Adj
ministration to include the Constitutional
lists In the deliberations would come from
the three mediators. The fact that Am
bassador da Cana OF Brazil and Min
isters Naon and Suarez of Argentina and
Chile decided positively TO reject Car
rama is well kown to those who are
familiar with al! the recent developments
in the Mexican situation.

THE CRIME OF THE CENTURY.

Since the first fight of time bega,
there has never been more inexcus
able, causeless, uncalled for war bee
waged between nations, as the ONT
that holds practically all the nation.
of Europe within its grasp.
Germany has issued "White
Book" France "Blue Book" and the
other nations various official declar
atoms as to their status in the mat.
ter and the more one reads Of the var.
ious statements the more bewildereo
one becomes as to what is the real
cause of the struggle.
No territorial rights were involved,
no national honor had been violated,
commerce had not been disturbed,
there had nothing occurred that called
for armed struggle. If two school kids
had began scrap ABOUT so trivial a
matter they would have both been
soundly spanked by their parents and
sent to bed to cool off.
Yet, Europe is engaged in a strug-,
gle to the death. If Germany wins,
not single German worker, that por
ton of the nation that does things
and makes things, will be one whit
better off than before the war began.
The same is equally true of the other
nations engaged in the strife.
Kings, Emperors, and marshals,
from safe vantage points, will direct
long lines of musket bearers and sa-
Der wielders, like pawns on chess
board, and they will be piled high in
windrows of death, but the clashing
warriors possess not the slightest ami
mostly one toward the other and have
no more idea why they are slaughter
moon, except that they were COM
ing one another than the man in the
manded so to do.
Famine, plague and panic will stalk ,
through the devastated lands in the
monday and the price paid for the
qualification of the whims, prejudices !,
and grudges of royalty, of which the
masses know nothing nor care
nothing will stagger humanity. c
One cannot but wonder that the
Millions who do the real fighting and
must suffer and whose dear ones must 4
uffer and pay the price, do not throw a

Explosion XIII.
Young Farley Dare, who lives up at
Walker,
Is long as a writer, but short as 4
talker;
His Eds. are pure stuff without any
alloy,
His cute little paragraphs things of
pure joy;
A wild crazy notions crept into his
pate,
To go to St. Paul and there legis-
late;
But we don't think it's the "Cass
county plan,"
To make poor solon and spoil a good
newspaper man;
And so when the votes counted he'll
fall far behind,
And the PILOT he'll run till he's

OF COURSE.

! Whenever something new and out
of the ordinary is proposed in the way
of legislation, most candidates for Of
| flee and certain class of newspapers
straightway fall over themselves to
endorse it; and if the plan calls for a
reduction of the number of elective
offices and an increase in the number
of appointive ones, every highbrow
editor and college politician fairly
shrek themselves hoarse over it.
The Efficiency Commission offers
some mighty good suggestions in
their report but when it comes to re-
ducing the number of elective officials
and increasing the numDer of appoint
i've ones and multiplying commissions
it don't make hit with the Herald.
We do not believe in legislation by
commissions, by courts or by execu-
tives but by legislators elected by the
people and responsible to the people
directly. We believe that the more
officials that have charge of the peo-
pies business that are elected by the
people the better it is. We believe a
legislature elected by the people can
revise our system of government bet
ter than any appointed commission
hat can be appointed.
According to our theory of govern
nent legislators should legislate,
Judges judge, and executive officials
exec" We never had much use for
or appointive officials
kept in merely clerical positions.

MADNESS OF THE MONARCHs.

expresses the Herald's sentiments:
Forward march! We bristling legions,
time doth strike the hour o.
4 doom;
On, through lands to distant regions,
j wrap the world in shroud and
gloom;
/ Ask not mercy, give not quarter
deal destruction, swift, COM
To the carnage, to the slaughter,
where the graphing millions
meet!
It's the madness of the Monarchs
meath whose lash the nations
groan!
And humanity, obedient, rushes on to
slay its own
Marches on, in servile millions, 80
appease the royal wrath
Oh, what feast awaits the vultures
in that dark and bloody path!
Forward, march! nor pause to ponder
on the fate of wife or child
Hear We not the canncns thunder and
the clash of battle wild?
See We not that thrones are trembling
while the War Lords play at
dice?
Haste-the legions are assembling for
the human sacrifice.
IT'S the Madness of the Monarchs
bound by some Satanic spell,
That invokes the help of Heaven to
perform the deeds of hell
That implores the Prince of Peace and
cries, "Thy will be done, not
mine,"
While the madness grasps the saber
to destroy by fright divine"
Onward-plunge We to destruction
and destruction of your kind,
Be the qawns of Maddened Monarchs,
who in safety stay behind;
Perish boasted civilization, perish all,
in crimson flood,
Brute, primeval, greedy, CORY satiate
thy lust for blood.
Oh that flower of mighty manhood,
strong at heart and head and
soul
With the engines of mans cunning
at their bidding and control,
should, unconscious of their power,
like the OK, to slaughter go

the War Lords bid them so;
When one word would end the story !.

power

sod,
