BAKER TO HAVE
CITIZENS ONLY
ON MINE-LAYERS

According to the Washington cores
pondent of the Philadelphia Ledger,
Secretary of War Baker has ordered
the discharge from mine-laying ves-
sells of all men who are not native
born citizens of the United States.
The secretary's order is as follows:
"You are requested to discharge
without delay all members of your
crew who are not citizens of the Unit
ed States BY citizens is meant ma
tive born citizens of the United
States"
This fact was disclosed here to-
day." says the correspondent under
date of May 10, 'as the result of tele-
graphic protest sent to Representa-
tive Albert Johnson of Washington
state by five foreign-born citizens, who
were discharged as members of the
crew of the mine-layer Ringgold. The
action taken is believed to be due to
a desire to prevent any possibility of
disloyalty on the part of foreign-born
men in case the United States should
become involved in ho5tilities.
The telegram received by Repre-
sentative Johnson was sent from La
conner, Wash, by John w. Carlson,
Carl Thomasson, William Mathson, Al
fred Christensen and L. Hermansen,
who charge gross discrimination.

cARRANzA CAN AVOID A CLASH,
 BUT WILL HE?

There is nothing unusual or sur- prising in the stand which has been taken by Secretary Lansing to the effect that this country has no cause for submitting to mediation the pres ent trouble with Carranza. It has no desire to annex any Mexican territory and it has not had any. There is no ambition to extend the boundaries of this country by aggression.
 The United States has shown the utmost regard for the reestablishment of peace in Mexico. It has lent it's influence unstintingly in that direction and has even extended recognition to the Carranza government in the hope that such could be brought about. But almost immediately from that time there has been disclosed on the part of Carranza disposition which indi- cated not only his unwillingness to respond to his obligations as the head of a neighboring government, but a failure to do his utmost to uphold the rights of this nation along the border. Contrary to his claim he has given no evidence of the control which he in- sisted he had. He has permitted the raiding of towns and the killing of United States citizens on this side of the line, and it is solely because of this that there are United States troops in Mexico today.
 It is because of Carranza's actions and nothing else that the possibility of war is threatened. It is because of his stubborn stand, his lack of coop eration with the punitive expedition and his antagonistic attitude to a friendly country that the present crisis developed. Under such condi- tions, even if there was a disposition on the part of this country to mediate there is no reason to believe. that the result of such arbitration Would be respected. It is question of rights which this country is insisting upon and only such rights as it is entitled to and that does not warrant its sub- mission to mediation. Carranza can if he will, extricate himself from his delicate position but if he does not choose to he knows what the conse- Quences will be-

INFLUENCE ON pRooREsswEs.

Just how much influence Colonel Roosevelt exerts upon the progressives of the country is indicated by the ac- tion which was taken by the progress sive national committee at it's confer ence in Chicago. Among those mem bers who voted it was shown that it was overwhelming, but counting those who opposed the idea of endorsing the republican nominee for the presidency. and those who did not vote but by their failure to do so gave ground for the belief that they were not thor oughly convinced of the wisdom of fol- lowing his advice, the idea of joining forces with the republicans for the purpose of overcoming the conditions which have prevailed for the past four years and which it is promised will be continued for a like period unless checked, was supported by a vote oi over two to one.
 From the expressions of opinion which have been made since the con- ventions adjourned by leaders and by the rank and file of the progressives the sentiment is overwhelmingly with Colonel Roosevelt, and it will increase now that he has come forward ana stated his position. Tn Massachusetts where the COulInllLee vote QlSplayeQ feeling for a third ticket, that attitude is not borne out by the action of the voters in the primary. It was there that 1t was early shown that the pro- gressives had returned to the repub- 1ican fold, and that unquestionably i: the situation in other states whose national committeeman happen to in. sist upon another such campaign al took place in 1912 and therefore tho contribution of valuable aid to tn, party which has brought forth sucf widespread criticism.

THE REVOLT OF THE ARABS.

It is impossible to overlook the i'm portance of the revolt which has taken place in Arabia. The Arabs have been a serious menace to the al- lies almost from the time that the war opened. They have not openly espoused their cause now but they have displayed their opposition to Tur- key and that means the withdrawal of certain amount of opposition and the setting up of menace which can not help being distressing to the Turks
 This would give the Turks no little cause for alarm even if that country was not now fully engaged in taking care of the Russians under Archduke Nicholas, but with Russian forces in possession of important strategic points in Asia Minor and threatening Constantinople through it's back door the move which has been made after careful preparation by the Arabs can- not fail to make the Turks sit up and take notice
 Arabia is out to throw off the Turk ish yoke which has been borne for a number of centuries. It was not long ago that they were fighting the British, and it has not as yet been l disclosed how or why they changed their tactics. except 1t be that they see the opportunity for doing some thing for themselves, but with the capture of Mecca, the Holy City, the fall of Kerbela and the strong offen- sive which is being made against Me- dina, it means action which Turkey can by no means welcome and which it is at the present time in none toe good shape to combat.
 Instead of being able to stir up a holy war against the allies, to which so much importance was attached dur ing the early stages of the conflict, il now looks as if the tables had beer i turned and as if Turkey was to fee the effects of the fighting ability o1 the Arabs instead of being able to di- rect this force against it's enemy.

ELIMINATE UNNECESSARY Ex-
 RENSES.

From the way in which congress is being asked for additional appropria- tions in order to meet the expenses connected with the mobilization Of the national guard in anticipation of trou- ble with Mexico. some idea is to be gained of the heavy expenditures which will be involved in case state of war Is actually declared between the two republics War cannot be conducted without large outlays and the longer 1t. is carried on the higher is the bill of expense bound to go. It means, however, a situation which cannot be neglected. There must be preparation and because it has to be hastened the expenditure involved is not matter to be haggled over, or towards which a niggardiy policy should be manifested And yet it is not solely in behalf of the second line of, defense that money must be ex- pended for the activity of the army and navy means an increased outlay in every department.
 This means that the time has come when marked distinction should be made between the necessary and un- necessary demands upon the national treasury. We must uphold the dignity. honor and rights of the nation at all cost, but at the same time there should be cutting out of the drain which goes to the maintenance of the pork barrel funds. Whatever has been said against them in the past gets in- creased emphasis at time like this. The opportunity is afforded to prac- tice a sane policy of economy. What ever would go towards the develop ment of harbors and rivers, or the erection of public buildings, which could wait without any serious re- suits, better be turned towards this more important use. Such appropria- tions would not be sufficient by any means to balance the other account but it would all help. Such saving ot national funds would overcome the necessity of raising just that much by other means. It is now a question oi the nations needs which must gel sound consideration
