ure TO patronize the product of our home

chants that persist in handing out the
product of outside manufacturers who
contribute nothing to this community.

10 save his face, by acceding To his request
for permission 10 follow Villa across the
border into the United States. in case that
bandit should attempt a repetition of his in
curston into this country. There is little
chance that the Mexican desperate will again
cross the American border and CarranZa's
purpose is merely to maintain by this device
the rather tawdry dignity OF the government
he represents.
The essential consideration is that General
Funston's men get promptly on the trail of
Villa and either kill him out Of hand or cap
ture him and bring him back to he tried and
hanged as the common murderer that ne is.
II ii will soothc the vanity OF CarranZa ia be
assured that on like provocaton he VIII be

that assurance? II will do him no harm

1t is important that all reasonable conces-

be transformed into Intervention. on a large
scale. In the internal affairs of Mexico 1t
is not necessary in the present situation and
certainly the transformation should not be

Whether 1t will become necessary depends
obviously on the course pursued by General
Carranza. That obstinate old man has not
