Marked the Mexican War
OF 1S46.4S.
PRESENT CONDITIONS SIMILAR
Estimate Of Fighting Force
Of That Nation Is
Nearly Impossible.


A glimpse into the Mexican wal
of 1S46-4S reveals conditions strik-
ingly similar to those existing in the
present crisis with that nation.
Then. as at present, there were
serious internal dissensi9As within
the republic The people were di-
vided and at war among themselves.
Yet the tendency then was, as it
might reasonably be again, to sink
these differences in the presence of
a foreign invader.
In the war of 1S46-4S it was nee
essary for the United States to place
in the field approximately $1,000
regulars and $1,000 volunteers.
Mexico's population then was less
than half what it is at present.
The war lasted two years. The
resistance encountered by General
Taylor in the north and by General
Scott IN his brilliant advance on
Mexico City would reasonably war
rant the assumption that an invasion
now would be more than mere
child's play.
Mexico's population approXimates
100000 Although its present
armed force but slightly exceeds S0,-
600 counting federals and revolu
tionists-that figure is fairly only
the nucleus around which the fight
ing strength of Mexico might group
itself,

forces interpOse to prevent any
authoritative estimate as to the
Among these forces the financial
resources from which Mexico might
draw is perhaps the most determin
ative.
Another factor which greatly
prejudices the likelihood of a swift
termination of the struggle in the
event of invasion is the fact thar
Mexico presents many grave geOlog-
ical and economic obstacles to the
invader. Coupled with this is the
advantage which naturally attaches
TO force battling in its own coun-
try.
Although it + not at all certain
that the constitutionalst forces
would ally themselves with General
Huerta in the event OF intervention
by the United States, there is 20
real assurance that CarrInza would
not turn against the invader.
1t will not, therefore, be possible
for the United States to rely upon
anything except the power of its own

their artillery also is well equipped
with modern guns.
The fact remains that Mexico has
no gun factory; cartridges and pow
der are manufactured on small
scale. but even in this regard Mex
leo is largely dependent upon her
imports from other countries. Dec
Iaration of war by the United States
would cut off this source of supply.

THE OLD .TRUNDLE BED.

tBy J. DENHAM HOCKER)
Since ] have moved to the city

A class about whom | have read,
Who never knew a trundle bed.
In that great farmhouse as boy
We children seldom owned toy
But one thing I have often said,
| am glad we had trundle bed.
In the day ii was out of sight,
But ready to be used at night,
When mother saw my droopins
head,
She pulled out the trundle bed.
Into il | was soon asleep,
Not afraid but the Lord would keep
Me safe and sound from things we
dread,
Safely tucked in the trundle bed.
Oh. how | pity many boys
Who had pleasure only in toys,
Never knowing to rest their head
Securely on trundle bed.
When shall reach the end of life,
No more to annoy with it's strife,
Heaven will be what the Book said +,
If Mother will tuck me in the trun-
die bed.
