ANOTHER WILSON BACK DOWN.
rCedar Rapids Republican,
In Washington there has been Is
hued House document No. sos in
which the presidents st. Louis speech
is reprinted, for franking it thru the
mails. In the ST. Louis speech he
startled the nation, and the world with
the statement that he believed We
ought to have the greatest navy in the
world" AS it is printed in the docu-
ment it reads the most adequate navy
in the world" This means quite an
other thing. but they were not the
words that the president used. not at all.
The question is what moral right even
a president has to change his own ut
terances. The spoken word ought to
be the pledged word.
But it has come, to this pass that
the president of the United States can
not stand by his own words over night.
What stability can there be in our gov
eminent and what faith can outside
nations have in us when we are wob-
bling about so?

THE PEOPLES RIGHTS AT HOME.

THE PEOPLES RIGHTS AT HOME.
IBoone News-Republcan.1
We are making some strenuous eff
forts al the present time as a nation
to protect American rigrts on the high
seas. This paper has number OF times
attempted to make the public see the
justice of protecting our rights at
home. For instance, springtime seems
to bring with it an inevitable desire to
walk across lawns. This is trespass
in the true sense of the word. but in
such a mild form that the law is
seldom ever evoked to punish it. 1t is
question of honor with the pedes-
trians. but sad to say many of them
utterly disregard other peoples rights.
Walking across parkings is a COM
mon infringement OF rights in Boone.
In many places the beauty of the park
ings is ruined by the custom of tramp
ing across them "catty corner" In
some places it seems that the right of
eminent domain has almost been es
tablshed. so persistently do the peo-
pie walk across the parkings.
The streets and alleys OF the city in
many OF the. downtown districts are
often clogged up with vehicles and 9TH
er obstacles so as to prevent free pas
sage by pedestrians and drivers.
The city which protects the rights OF
property owners is bound TO forge
ahead. One which Is lax in this re-
spect discourage improvements and al
ways looks to be in cluttered up
state. Spring time Is cleaning time
and Boone ought to take a fresh start
in the matter Of cleaning up.

MEXICAN AGITATION FRIGHT WASHINGTON
ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS ARE MAKING NO ATTEMPT TO CON-
 cEAL UNEAsINESS FELT.
MORE TROOPS TO BORDER
Officials Declined to Reveal Details, But Seemed to Believe Serious Purpose Was Behind Bandit Raid
 on Coleman Ranch.

Washington.-Coincident with con- tinuing reports from consuls all over Northern Mexico, telling of the rapid spread of anti-American feeling, the War Department ordered 1.500 addi- tional regular troops to the border. Administration officials made no at tempt to disguise their uneasiness and it was officially admitted that there is growing alarm over what the agitation may produce and the possf- bility of an attack on Gen. Pershings expedition.
 No case of attack on the persons of American residents in Mexico has been reported, although there have been one or two attacks on vacant consul ates and other American property
 Part of the increasing apprehension here is due to the renewed raids in the Laredo region. Several reports dealing with the situation there have been received. Officials declined to reveal details, but seemed to believe a serious purpose was behind the bandit
 
 raiders were killed and two captured, one report said, adding that they att tempted to burn railroad bridge near Laredo, but failed.
 The new force sent to join Gen. Funston's border patrol, Secretary Baker said, was to fill in gaps in the guard such as that near Laredo. It will be composed of 10 companies of coast artillery and battalion of en, gineers. The artillerymen will be withdrawn from Notifications between Portland, Maine, and Sandy Hook and the engineers go from barracks in this city. The secretary said there was no present intention of calling out additional national guard regi- ments for border duty.
