A Wise Course at Last.

While the administration and all the
Democratic leaders and press are
frantically demanding to know what
any critic of President Wilson would
have done in his place, Senior Car
rama has answered them all by pro-
posing a plan which President Wilson
has, with a fine fash Of sagacity, ac-
copied.
There is the answer to ALL the
Democratic bubbles concerning what
should have been done throughout the
entire "watchful waiting" period-the
United States should have attended to
its own business ana kept its nose out
oe Mexico's national affairs. BY
bumptious interference with another
nations problems all these questions
have arisen in the United States.
In other words, the American Presi-
dent should have accepted Mexican
plans for settling their own affairs,
three years ago instead Of today.

stated that the monies for the new roads
would be found by the elimination Of the
Republican waste and extravaganza that
he has brought about during his admin

State printing. he said, had become a

performance Of Ave years ago, but the
