Another American Inconsistency

The members Of the Cauanza' Wilson
commission seem to be deliberating
not upon the international problems
which alone could give it legal and
rational cause iot being, but upon the
domestic politics Of Mexico We
have again and again been assured
tina, it was our bounden duty TO let
the Mexicans work out their own sal
walton, even at Incidental sacrifice Of
American life and property, but now
we have a commission that is deiiber'
ating upon Mexican domestic problems
OF taxation, finance and rehabilitation.
This doesn't seem TO fit in very well
with the theory Of letting the DonS
do it, but il has long been understood
that this administration has one set ol
theo.ies to talk about aud quite an
other set 10 WORK on.
The latest suggestion from the con-
ferees is that Mexico shall be invad
ed BY an army, not with guns, but
wife plows AMI school books in its
hands. American farmers are to teach
the poems how u pillow Ind reap, and
American school teachers are 10 in

Missouri is big, grand, rich state,
with the resources Of an empire. Some
OF these are undeveloped, but their
presence and availability are unques'
toned. They call for the application
Of large capital in the hands Of men Ct
foresight and courage, Many Of these
men have been kept away from Mis-
souri, by the repeated manifestation,
in elections and otherwise OF the spirit
Of mossbackism and bourbonism, A
Republican victory and particularly the
election Of great business leader like
Walter S. Dickey TO tine Senate, would
be the signal to these waiting and tim.
id investors that they could safely bring
on their money and put it in Missouri
enterprise. The election Of Judge
Lamm would be to them the necessary
assurance OF another kind that they
would be welcome. Why not tell
them to come on. Everybody will prof;
from the presence and activity OF the
money they bring.

Ihe NlEth Pays.

Let the North pay the taxes is
the slogan Of the D.mocra,ic Congress
recently adjourned. And that slogan
was lived up to. Nothing better illus
trates that than the muni,ion tax, car
ried by the Kjtchiu bill now law. As
that bill was originally passed By the
House, it levied a h ayy tax upon the
manufactures Of munitions, bat coup
led with the mInluoa tax was a special
tax on the production 1t copper, The
theory Of the House was that copper

Wacn the answer came, the Senate
discovered that the Finance Committee
had distributed the copper tax to cove
iron, steel, lead zinc and cotton.
Tha, was a shock to the senators
from the cotton growing states OF TIE
South, They never would consent tt
a tax on cotton not even on cottoT
en;ereing into the manufacture OF eX
plosives. So the south as represented
in the Senate got together, decided II

President Wilson owes it to himself
and to the country TO admit frankly
that war serves multitude Of purposes
for the Democratic party. Evil it may
be and disastrous in its effects but il,
has Ger ainly saved the administration Il
lot Of iruitless explanation and argn
ment.
It has, for example, enabled the
Democratic party to asseverate, with
rather noisy persistency, that there has
been something Wilson has kept the
country out Of.
It has enabled the benigDant Mr..
Redfeld, President Wilson'S Secretary
Of Commerce, to explain why the cost
Of living is increasing.
It is used by the same gentlemen
as the occasion for denying that the
expectation CT war supplies has any
thing 10 do with the country's pros
perity.
1t has enabled the Administration tc
bolster up the falling revenues by levy
ing a lax on munitions.
It is used 10 demonstrate the sagaci
BUSINESS Of President Wilson in uphold
ing the rights OF American citizens or
the high seas.
Ii is given as the reason, by way o
apology to the pacifsts, for the be
lated recognition by the administration
Of the need Of prepardnesss,
It affords a convinent explanation
why anything in the last three year
has gone wrong, although it accounts
in no way for anything that has gon'
right

horence OF war but for his campaign
