HOW HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF

All have heard of the days of old when knights were bold and barons held their sway. In those days the barons had their own men at arms and ruled by force of arms so that he took who had the power and he kept who could. That was long time ago, and since then God knows how many different palladia of li- bertiea saw the light of day. The feudal barons are no more. They are dust and forgotten, but in their places following the evolution of so- ciety are the industrial overlords. They too, have their men at arms and we read with no surprise that the Pennsylvania railroad when the strike seemed inevitable bought buildings near their Philadelphia stations; fortified them; guns and ammunition were stocked within them, and it was estimated they would have 25OO armed guards to defend their castles. Industrial feu- dalism? Why, most certainly.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-09-27
BROKE.

The city is "broke'. There is no money in the treasury. The city is in debt And it was practical sug- gestion made by one of the council zen that arrangements ought to be made to pay bills in the meantime with one of the banks. If the war rants are discounted it is evident that the city pay roll will be the heaviest loser. And who get the dis count? The money will come in time, and there is no reason why any discounting should take place ill the wages a persona works for. The question will not settle itself.

How London Grew.

Britain's great empire has grown
lust as the great city of London grew.
sYoa ride on a bus from Hampstead
to the Strand and you pass at least
four High streets. each once the main
thoroughfare of n former village,
says Samuel p Ortiz in the Imperial
Impulse. sLondon is only fortuiteus
collection, of villages. 1t was never
planned, it could not be planned. 1t
has no community of interest save
trade. It was never governed as
municipality.
"For years each parish had its own
government; today it is governed by
a county council. 1t is an amorphous
aggregation of novels, shops and PAL
aces, with no limits or plan to its
spreading.
Like. terrible Brohdingnagian
anieba, it pushes its tentacles hither
and thither, prompted only by the in
stinet for food"

All of Charges.
MAY BE FORECAST OF REPLY
Defes Washington To Prove That
carranza Troops Have Protected
Bandits Says Americans
Presence Foster Raids.
MAY BE FORECAST OF REPLY

Mexico City-The Foreign Office
issued memorandum in reply to Sec
rotary Lansing's recent note, in which
the correctness of assertions In the
communication from Washington were
repeatedly denied The memorandum
declared that the United States had no
right to maintain its armed force on
Mexican soil.
The memorandum contains 30
counts Although not in the form of
a direct reply to the Washington note,
it is considered equivalent to an
answer to the document.
It expresses surprise that the Wash
ington government should have been
panied at the tone and the contents OF
the Carranza document, since it main
tains that the Unied Safes has sent
to the Constitutional government not
only one, but many discourteous and
even overbearing notes.
Defiant In Tone.
Emphatically reiterating the Next
can governments position denying the
right of the United States to keep
armed bodies in Mexico, the memoran-
dunn denies energetically that the
Mexican government has protected
bandits who had committed depreda-
lions in the United States and defies
Washington to produce proof Of the
assertion.
Blame for the Santa Ysabel massacre
is placed on the so-called impulsive
and irascible disposition of Charles
Watson, general manager of Cusihuiri-
achi Company, and General Scott and
General Funston are accused of bad
faith and lack of honor in misleading
General Obregon in an alleged evasive
reply regarding the crossing of Ameri-
can troops into Mexico after the Glenn
Springs raid.
The memorandum asserts that while
it. is true that the United States ar
rested General Huerta, the motive
which prompted this act was not q
purpose of aiding the Constitutional
government, but because the United
States feared that General Huerta was
plotting with Germany.
The note concludes by declaring
that the presence of American troops
in Mexico invites rather than prevents
bandit raids along the border.
The memorandum was issued at the
same time that the Foreign Office au-
thorized publication Of Secretary
Lansing's recent note.
