Proud Of Tenth Cavalry.

Clarinda, Ia, June 27.-To the Editor Of
The Bee: Proudly l write of the heroism
Of our boys of the Tenth cavalry and may II
20 down in history fighting in front for
that noble flag, red, white and blue. We can
be proud not only of them, but Of every
negro who rallies to the country's cause.
We know Of no other home but the home Of
the free and the land of the brave. Our
only demand is, not equal protection. but
protection from one star and stripe for
which we will so nobly give our lives when
commanded SO to do. In time Of peace we
are loyal and in time of hostilities we are
q bresstwork Of protection. Let me correct
one statement; we are not all law-abiding
but we cannot account for the downtrodden
Of our race. Every race has its superiors
and interiors. A few more years Of edu-
cation and a great many more opportunities
will enable US to reach the highest scale Of
civilization. Through education our race
will be saved.
Again say all hail to our negro boys
In blue, who died for defense Of this country
With bleeding hearts and souls to groan
They were left alone to moan
But Jesus who watches over all
Did that day hear their pleading call.
MRS. r. T. LANE.

of The Bee: A short time ago l received an

Oh! IL This Jealousy?

Omaha, June 2S.-To the Editor of The
Bee see by the papers that Mr.. Maher
is slated to be in command of another regi-
ment to be recruited in Nebraska for service
in Mexico. Mr.. Maher knows himself he
has not seen any military service even in
the Nebraska Guard, since he was mustered
out Of the Second Nebraska, in 1898. Mill
tary methods in the United States army
have radically changed in eighteen years.
This is not time for politics or pull. but
for competency, so now, II you must, use
your political pull. IL 1t must enter into the
Sixth regiment to place in command man
who is competent. General P. L. Hall. for
instance, and accept commission for which
you are fitted.

Unexampled attendance on the re-established

not the backwardness Of the pupils so much as

NeHatiye Intervention.

Mr.. Wilson has always maintained that his
policy in Mexico is noninterventon. As mat
ter Of fact it has been intervention. To tell a
country it cannot have certain man for presi-
dent is Intervention. To tell de facto president,
as Huerta was that he must get out, falls within
the same definition. From the date of that act
Mr.. Wilson had responsibility of his own as
suning for what went on in Mexico.

Ho! every patriotic son
OF Freedom who enjoys
A Fourth made up Of powder-smoke
And racketing and. noise.
II you are for preparedness,
Just listen to tip,
And give your fireworks funds to ouilo
A giant battleship.
Convert the rockets and the bombs,
The roman candles. too.
And whizzing wheels spouting stars
OF red and gold and blue.
Into munitions mighty guns,
And armor- plates of steel,
That every foe Of Liberty
Her power may fear to feel
A nickel, dime or dollar spent
On mere fireworks Is cash
Burned up and turned to asnes gray
And wasted In a flash.
And cannon crackers bang and burst.
The rockets soar and die,
But oh! 1t is a navy keeps
Old Glory In the sky.
So let us in Preparedness
True Spirit celebrate
The Declaration that we prize,
And Freedoms natal date.
By giving money, once on punk
And powder thrown away,
For superdresdnaughts to preserve

When Senator Borah was making his indct-
ment of Wilson's Mexican policy some months
ago he was interrupted by Senator Robinson Of
Arkansas, who thought it smart to ask:
II conceive that he Senator Borah) should
tell US in very brief way just what action he
would take if he were president. Will the SEN
ator from Idaho tell US what he would do now
If that burden fell upon himl
The important word in this question is
now" Many democrats and defenders Of the
presidents Mexican policy seem to think it a SUI
hciently adequate defense to say: What would
you dos" Of course what critic would do now
to mend situation which has been bunged is
one thing. but what should have been done in
the beginning is another matter. The president
made mistake. 1t was mistake which placed
upon him unescapably responsibility for the pres
ent state of Mexico He adopted policy which
was bound to end in chaos and which could only
be remedied by armed Intervention. Having ar
rived at the chaos he sidestepped and back
stepped. And yet armed intervention was the only
logical end Of the policy which Mr.. Wilson
started, with his eyes completely open. Having
arrived at stage which became intolerable, and
which could only be cured by an American army
on police duty Mr.. Wilson's friends and par
tsans presume to say his policy must not be
criticised because criticism implies, inevitably,
now, the dread word intervention.

direct Responsibility"

The New York Evening Post is as we'll
known for the high-minded conscentiousness of
its editorial page as is any American newspaper.
Among the causes to which the Post has been
devoted for more than generation the most
conspicuous are peace and justice toward inferior
races An expression from that newspaper upon
Wilson's Mexican policy may be presumed to
start with as keen desire for the welfare of the
Mexicans as the president could possibly have.
Also the following paragraph from one of its
editorials can be read in the light Of the fact that
the Post has been one of the heartier supporters
and admirers of the president
Intelligent comment upon an unintelligible
situation is so difficult that it is not strange
that the American press has had SO little to
say recently about Mexican affairs That they
have fallen into deplorable state is evident
Who is in power, how long he will be, what
the bitter factions are all about, what
Villa is driving at, what chance there is of even
the semblance of order coming out Of chaos
these are questions which nobody is able to
answer with any certainty. That the admin
istration at Washington is gravely concerned
over what is going on in Mexico admits Of no
doubt. 1t has too direct responsibility for
what has occurred not to be extremely anxious
about the outcome"
1t is true good many months have passed
since this was printed. Ut goes back to the time
when Villa was Mr. Wilson's favorite in Mex
ico.) But it would be difficult to claim seriously
that Our Mexican imbroglio has grown better with
time.

Mexico in the Campaign
Collier
Mr.. Hughes Views.
CoIlisrs Weekly

The principal indictment Of the Wilson admin
of acceptance had to do with Mexico His words
were:
But it is most regrettaby true that in our
foreign relations we have suffered incalcu-
lably from the weak and vacillating course
which has been taken with regard to Mexico
course lamentaby wrong with regard to both
our rights and our duties. We interfered with
out consistency; and while seeking to dictate
when we were not concerned, we utterly failed
to appreciate and discharge our plain duty to
our own citizens.
1t would be justhable to assume that Mr..
Hughes will make Mexico one of the two chief
issues of his campaign.
