lust KEEP on wArcHFUuY WAITING

The 0regonian's attitude on the
Mexican question reminds us Of trying
to cure plague patient by taking pos
session of his house and sleeping in
his bed. The following excerpt illus
trates it as well as another:
"McManus was evidently a brave
man whose confidence in the United
States had not been destroyed, though
it had been severely tried. It is no
reproach to his memory that he fought
hopelessly against an army; 1t is a re-
proach to the United States that our
flag is so little respected in Mexico
that an army of bandits dared TO at
tack an American citizen"
Mexico has the plague. Ergo, it be-
comes the duty Of Uncle Sam to seize
and chastise the patient, rule his dis
ordered household and expose himself
TO pestilence.
'The greatest good to the greatest
of our own people demands
that we keep out of Mexico as long as
we possibly can, and let the sullen pa
tient alone to die or recover as Provi-
dence wills. Because the lives and
property of comparatively few Ameri-
can citizens are endangered, we are
not obliged to risk thousands of other
ives, entail the enormous expense Of
IN invasion and shoulder burden that |
We might have to carry forever. The

Daring Robberies.
Two Places In ThurmOnt En-
tered In One Night.

Last Friday night raid was made by
burglars on Mr.. Charles Walters store
and on the freight house of the Western
Maryland railroad at this place.
During the night, between two and
three o'clock, an unusual noise was heard
by number of persons residing near
Mr.. Walters store; Mr.. d. r Rouzer
being the only one, however, to take a
look in that direction. Seeing nothing,
Mr.. Rouzer retired. Saturday morning,
early, it was learned that the noise was
caused by someone smashing several
glass in bow-window in Mr.. Walter s
store.
After smashing the window, the thief
grabbed up several revolvers and mouth
organs and beat hasty retreat. Mr..
Walter and his clerk who occupy rooms
in the building heard the noise but Meth
err arose to make an investigation. All
that was taken was obtained without
actually entering the building, the various
articles being on display in the windows.
1t is not known which place was enter
ed first, but Mr.. Ruch discovered that
the freight house had been robbed when
he went to work between five and six
o'clock.
Entrance to this building was made by
breaking window and unscrewing lag
bolt which held an iron bar across the
window on the inside. On all other win
dows in the building iron bars are inbed-
ded in the window frames and cannot be
removed without removing the entire
frame. After removing one bolt the bar
dropped and made space enough for the
burglar to crawl in to the building. After
being inside, the doors could be easily
OPP ned.
Mr. Ruch says the freight room was in
an awful condition, boxes and merchan-
Iise being scattered all about.
After taking an inventory of the goods,
it was found that sack containing 80
pounds of coffee, lot of tobacco and
cigars, mems gloves, Bakers chocolate,
and other groceries, consigned to Mr. e.
A. Fry, of near this place, We're missing.
A crate containing a water cooler stand
for the new postolfi:e outfit, was carried
out and opened, but was put back in the
room. The loss to the railroad will prob
ably amount to SIS 90, not counting re-
pairs to building and special work on the
job.
The fact that but this one window was
secured by bars and lag bolts, makes it
appear that the thief was familiar with
conditions about the premises.
Very little merchandise was in the
building Friday night, the freight train
carrying big amount of goods for this
place failing to get to Thurmont until
Saturday morning. Had this freight ar
rived Friday evening the chances are
that much more goods would have van
shed.
Special Western Maryland officers were
sent here, but clue was hard to obtain
likely no one will be able to locate the
goods taken from either place. The rail
road officials state that many cars are
robbed while going from this place to
the top of the mountain, entrance evil
IDENTIFY being gained while the train is
standing at the station, and boxes looted
after the train starts west. The heavy
grade makes it possible for man to
Jump from the car almost anywhere.
