THE UNTUToRED POLITICIAN.

Of all the animals that roam the earth, man (which includes
Iwoman@ is the strangest sort of combination.
Domestic animals learn to avoid the fire, to- keep away from the
Iquagmire, to evade the barbed wire fence.
Even monkeys learn by experience what to avoid and eyade in
iorder to preserve themselves from harm.
But man, tn highest developed III point Of intellectually of all
the creations of this terrestrial sphere, learns not at all from exper-
iences when it comes to politics.
The oldIine political boss has been whipped to a standstin time
and again. Many Of his ilk have been laid away to rest among the
|has-beens, notwithstanding they may still continue to exist, not vet
having become conversant with the fact that they are dead.
The most peculiar part of the whole proceeding, running back
through the ages to the time of Adam, is that each succeeding polit-
heal machine thinks it is superior to anything OF its kind.
The political boss and the political machine 60 upon the theory
that both are inyulnerable, each perched ON SO high 4 pinnacle as to
Ibe beyond the reach of the enemies shafts.
OF all th denizens Of either prairie or forest. Of vast mountain
ranges or Of wastlesss deserts, the political boss is the only ssani.
tlnals' that never learns anything.

MEXICAN INTERVENTION AMI PREPAREDNESS

A California senator has introduced a resolution authorizing
and directing the president to intervene in Mexico to establish and
MAINTAIN a government there until it is safe to withdraw.
The Mexican situation furnishes food for the preparedness
propaganda. 1t is a decided stimulus to the program, for it is real
lzd that American intervention in Mexico viii impel the occupa-
ton OF Mexican soil by Uncle Sans troops for years to come.
Anything which compels Uncle Samuel to use his naval and
military power whether to suppress rebellion in Mexico or to quell
indian outbreaks, adds just 50 much to the program for prepared
ness.
For some years there have been repeated and almost continual
efforts to bring the United States directly into Mexican affairs. Both
President Taft and President Wilson resisted this influence, and
thus far this country has been kept out Of the difficulty.
The introducer of the resolution for forcible intervention in
Mexico is a pronounced champion Of preparedness. He believes
that the United States should have a million men under arms, or ready
az 3 moments call to rush to arms and that we should have ships
with decks cleared for action and steam up in our every. harbor that's
big enough to hold a dreadnaught
Just as soon as the bosses become convinced with respect to
what the people. want and are bound to have, they'll begin to tumble
over one another to get there first with it. That's one thing that
can DC said for the boss. But the principal trouble with him is that
IT'S SO hard for him to become convinced.

CONGRESSMAN Royal Johnson. says the lroquolS Nhle1, rs IN
favor Of the government manufacturing everything used IN the army
and navy" The paper, however. expresses the fear that there might
be too much waste if the government should get into the manufac-
turing business. There is some ground for the CHIEFS apprehension
hut even with a large element of waste the government could still
save millions IA year in munitions. The Saturday News hopes that
Congressman johnson will be supported in his position. AS we view
it. it is folly to pay such high tribute to private manufacturers IN
war materials. The people are entitled. at least. to all the profit IN
such things.

The Mitchell Republican asks tn" Aberdeen News whether the
other fellows, were they IN power, wonld accept the pr1nrIpI OF COM
PROMISE with respect to the selection OF delegates to the national
convention. The News aptIy replies that the other fellows were drlV-
IN from power because certain other chaps made the people believe
that the ruling force within the party was acting precisely as our
Mitchell contemporary now wants the faction now IN power to act.
as we have said heretofore and elsewhere, political machines do not
seem to be endowed with INTELLIGENCE.

 Guards For Border Duty
 There is nothing to indicate how many troops will be required, imme diately, although in the event of an open breach with the Mexican govern ment the whole force probably will be sent to general mobilization camps at suitable points near the international line The plan contemplates distrib- uting the guardsmen on the border as evenly as possible among all the men summoned It will serve also to in- crease the efficiency of the force a. .gainst future emergencies. Should war come it is virtually held that the remainder of the mobile troops of the national guard would be ordered out. l. h. call for volunteers unless the depart ment found it possible to recruit the regular army up to the increased strength authorized under the new ar my bill.

 immediately if Congress adopts reso- lutions and state soldiers who have taken the required oath, then will be come federal soldiers with no connec. tion whatever with the national guard or the organized militia. They will be available for service in Mexico without further formality.
 On the other hand those who may refuse to take the oath and will not therefore be subject to draft, will re- main under federal control. under the portions of the old law which still is operative. They will be available for guard duty along the border if army officers feel the urgent need of keep ing ready for that purpose.
 Empowers Invasion
 The resolution. it is understood. will authorize the President to employ the armed forces of the United States sither in Mexico or along the border, for defensive purposes. Such a pro vision would meet the objection of those who hold that a sufficiently clear authorization has not been given for the purposes of Section III of the new army bill providing that drafting of national guardsmen can begin only after proper authorization has been given by Congress for the employ ment of forces other than the regular army. Legal officers of the war de- little objection on the part of most Of the guardsmen.
 It is planned to exercise the draft partment desire to make certain that no complications win arise later to block efficient use of the state troops.
 Plenty of Equipment 4
 Ample equipment of all kinds is on hand at the various depOts of the army Secretary Baker said, to complete the equipment of all the guardsmen called for service. Supplies of field artillery and machine guns and enough ammu- nition is on hand.
 More Horses Needed
 The most pressing need will bef horses to mount all the national guard cavalry, and supply gun teams for the field batteries. The large excess held in army re-mount stables for the needs of the regulars will fall short of pres ent needs by many thousands ] Officials are. busy working out the humber that must be supplied and the duickestsway of securing them. . !

In this connection it has been learned that 10SO men of the New Mexico national guard called out some weeks ago, were found unsuited for federal service.
