The time which this paper feared

for another raid. Let there be no

CLEAN UP THE BORDER.

President Wilson is right in hold
ing that Villa and his bandits who
raided Columbus, New Mexico, must
be hunted down and punished by
American soldiers The little force
that followed the brigands across the
border and killed as many as it could
catch made a good start. The work
should be prosecuted to satisfactory
finish without delay.
Other Americans have met their
death at the hands of Mexican ban
dts, but they were slain on Mexican
territory or killed by stray shots
across the border. Under such cir
Cumstances, so long as the de facto
government of Mexico was friendly
and made an honest if feeble effort
to punish the criminals, the United
States could afford to wait. The Col
l:mbus case is different. There, Ameri-
can citizens and soldiers on their own
territory were attacked and murder
ed by half regiment\ of armed
brigands, headed by a disappointed
cattle thief who tried to make him
self dictator of Mexico.
We cannot wait for Carranza to

MORE POLICE DUTY.

In the year 1898 the United States
government undertook little mat
ter of police duty in the western
hemisphere. We went into CUBA 10

ers of Europe watched us with
knowing smile. They, all and slngu-

smoke had cleared away, 1t trans
pired that the humanity in the IN
terest of which the intervening had
been done was that of the lnterVen-
ing powers. Empires have grown
great on such Intervention.
The United States, in 1898, set a
new standard. 1t did not deVour

CONGRESS OR WILSON.

When war becomes possibility II
is the duty Of every patriot 10 INFORM
himself as to the issue and to declde
for himself whether he wants to sup
port the government in war TO set.
tie it. If the diplomatic branch OF
the government has become lnFol'eo
in a controversy which 1t can not win
without going to war, it is the duty
of the public to decide whether its
diplomats are right in their conten-
tons, and, if so, whether the nation
al interest in the issue is sufficiently
vital to warrant resort to war to con-
serve it. II the popular Judgment is
that the prospective war is upright
eous or that the issue is not OF sutticl-
ent Importance to warrant it, this
Judgment should find reflection in
congress and prevent the war. 1t is
better to hurt the feelings of our dip
lomats than to involve the whole
country in the tragedy of unnecessary
and unrighteous war. What is popu-
lar government for if not for use in
such emergencies!
In 1898 the president and his dip
lCmats did not want war. The people
wanted it and they made their will
kuOWu through congress-. lie pISSl-
dent yielded cheerfu1ly. If, in 1916,
the president wants war, and the peo-
pie do not agree with him, they
should have their way just as they
did in 1893. Their will should be
made known through congress, as it
was in 1898. President Mckinley did
not feel insulted because congress
would not stand for his policy. Presi-
dent Wilson would have no right to
feel personally insulted if congress
Should refuse to follow him in pro-
war policy.
1t is we'll enough to say that the
diplomatic affairs of the country are
placed in the hands of the executive
and that neither the public nor it's
representatives in congress should do
anything t hamper executive diplo-
macy. This is true only until there
is grave danger that diplomacy must
run into war. When the issue of peace
or war becomes paramount, it should
be decided by congress in behalf of
the people. there is nothing in our
constitution or in any of the prin-
ciples upon which popular govern
ment is founded to justify conten-

THE NEW SECRETARY OF WAR.

Newton d. Baker, the newly ap-
pinted secretary of war, is man of
proved administrative ability, deeply
beloved by his home folks of Cleve-
land and greatly admired by all who
know his character and work. He
has been remarkably successful in
carrying through radical reforms
with minimum of conservative an
tagonism-a success which the Jour
nal hopes he will be able to dupli-
cate in his new position. He believes
in peace, but any follower of the late
Tom Johnson ought to know from ex-
perience that there are times when
the only way to maintain peace is to
he ready to fight for it.
In spite of the campaign of dispar-
agement already leveled against him
by INSCRIPTIONS partisans, Mr.. Bak-
err should add to the strength of the
cahinet.--Chicago Journal.

UP AGAINST IT.

Until few days ago, the work of the council in the construction of the Cliff Avenue road met no Instructions harder than rocks and with a little powder, the Instructions were removed and the work progressed satisfactorily with the hap py thought that soon the people would be given that which they have been crying for several years. Lately. however, the council struck a snag that apparently will prove harder than rocks. Human Instructions are now found in the way with a few rotten cabins that the city must either buy at an eXhorbitant price or stop work and deprive ninety-nine out of every hun dred residents of the crying need-an avenue to Charcoal Point.
 But why need the council stop work for two or three Instructions? The council has per feet right to open the street without having to beg for any right-of-way. Let appraisers be ap- pointed who shall appraise the property and whatever the amount, let it be offered to the obstruct;onsts and in the event they refuse, go right ahead with the work, Both time and money impose limitations and the council can neither afford to waste time nor money.

THE PEOPLE WANT HIM.

Evidently. the mention of J. R. Heckman a few days ago as the logical candidate for Sen ator of this division at the coming election struck a harmonious cord. if we can judge by the num- erous inquiries whether he would accept the nomination or not. To satisfy his friends, MT. Hickman was seen and to the direct question he answered that if the people wanted him. he would do the best he could for all. That is all the people want to know.
 Now Messrs. Republicans and Democrats, it is up to you to nominate Hickman. If you give him the nomination. you can go way back and sit down, the people will do the rest. He is their friend. They know him to be just as upright as Senator Sulzer candidate for delegate to con- gress. The latter is liked by every miner who

ever had anything to do with him for bis broad miudedness and principles; the former is liked by every miner and fisherman for the same req son. Both are men whom the people can trust. Because both belong to the extreme patl of southeastern Alaska, should not be considered against them at the coming election. Therefore, take warning Nessrs Delegates to the conven- tion. nominate J R. Heckman for Senator or the people will get together and nominate him, And you can't defeat him either.
