 That the distant owners of these great enterprises apparently took little trouble to iamliarize them selves personally with the state of affairs is one of Che principal criticisms that have been launched at them And the criticism had measure of justice Absentee ownership can seldom discharge the full obligations Of ownership. where the human clements are SO vtally concerned unless the owners get in personal touch from time to time with the other human factors.

 A correspondent of the Chicago Daily News recent ly interviewed Gen. Nafarette. who is in command of the Carranza forces along the Rio Grande upon Che question whether any troops of the Consttutonalist Army have taken part in the forays into Texas.
 The General outlined the steps he had taken to pre- any criminal bands from getting the river and account of what he had done to cooperate with the American troops He denied that his own men had entered Texas for any unlawful purpose and int mated very pointedy that all the trouble along the Mexican border due to Mexcans. In this connec- tion he charged that certain unnamed persons living the Texas side had formerly consDred with ofrc- als in Mexico to control trade .he border under arrangement such that Mexicans having cattle or other property to sell compelled to deliver their goods to the American monopolists Gen Nafarette declares that he has broken up this practice and to the Americans who thus aggreved he charges the cir cuaGon og false reports against himself and the Car government including the charge that the Carran- zisias have violated American territory.
 The story of loot and corruption into which Mexico has fallen makes it not improbable that some Americans have shared the goten profits and that their present interests lie in the continuation of Mexican disorder If it would be the Carranza government which they would be most likely to discredit and while the pros poets that the Mexican trouble be settled through recognition Of Carranza retains any of its promise. it will be well Co remember that there are two other sides to the question along the Texan border
