Latest Figures on War Cost

to conclude that at least $4,000 are dead and
AoOO more have been rendered Incapable of produce

100000 lives. The economic value OF a productive

Between Bandits and Submarines.

Secretary Lansing very delicately and
adroitly distin guishes between outlawry on land
and at sea. He finds a marked difference be-
tween a bandit and submarine, remembering. no
doubt, that in the eyes Of "watchful waiting"
these self-same murderous Mexican marauders
have in turn been revolutionists, patriots, ser
wants Of humanity, before finally degenerating
into their present condition Of prescribed out
laws. The secretarys defense OF the admins
tration must be satisfactory, for the president
absolutely declines TO switch his singe-track"
mind on the matter of protecting Americans who
for the moment are unfortunate enough TO own
property in Mexico or have other interests that
call them there.
Though recognized as de facto president and
our great and good friend" Carranza has not
yet set up a stationary government The
protest from Washington may reach the migra-
tory capital OF the first chief" but this gives no
assurance that the murderers OF American citi-
Zens will be punished stopped from commit

lions OF the Carrsnza clique. that villa and all
his companions have been put outside the pale
OF the law, the probabilities are that this latest
outrage will be added to the long list OF similar
occurrences, accumulated since Mr. Wilson took
office, and allowed to stand as unfinished bust
ness"
Under our present foreign policy, Mexicans
may with impunity defy all law, international or
otherwise. and only European nations are called
to account, though with more words thar results
