The MEXICAN Trouble.

The MEXICAN Trouble.
The Mexican trouble is rap
idly drifting into a diplomatic
controversy which undouot-
eddy will b- settled without
war. We trust that Secretary
Lansing may be able to avert
hostility between the two nat
ions. We like to SEQ our bor-
der patrolled, but we believe
in keeping on our own side
of the line as long as possible.
We can see no useful object
now i'll keeping our soldiers
in Mexico. There is pract-
iCally no chance whatever of
taking Villa in this way !.
That willy leader is only made
stronger by our tactics. Fur
thermore, as long as our army
is south of the line. we are
in constant danger of embroil-
ment with the De Facto gov
eminent. The Carrizal lncid-
ent is one that makes the
blood Of Americans boil, yet
nevertheless, possibly much
OF the trouble was due to the
wrongheadness Of one Amer
lean officer. We should strive
to look at this matter from
the Mexican standpoint also.
We certainly would seriously
oppose any army of Mexicans
advancing north of the line
several hundred miles in pur.
suit of ali American Jesse
James. We very much fear
that we should not have the
tact and forbearance that the
Mexicans has had.

FROM CIRLHOOD TO OLD
AGE WOMEN ARE HELPED

At the first symptoms OF any de-
rangement of the feminine organism
at any period of life the one safe, really
helpful remedy is DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription for every conceivable all
merit and disease of womanly nature.
It is a woman's temperance medicine
and its ingredients are published on
wrapper.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
a true friend to women in times OF
trial and at times of pain when the
organs are not performing their func-
tions. For headache. backache, hot
flashes, catarrhal conditions, bearing
down sensations. mental depression,
dizziness, fainting spells, women
should never fail to take this tried and
true womens medicine.
The Yale expositor., 1916-02-17

Where he did merit the highest honor
was in his rising so magnificently &c
his responsibilities and opportunities
A man selfish and arrogant might have
exacted more for himself might have
striven to establish himself as a per
manent power over the nation he had
helped to create. But there is no evi
dence that Washington ever felt such
a temptation. Aristocrat as he was
and stakeholder, he was all the more
extraordinary in being able to turn
from the prejudices of his training tc
a realization of the democratic ideal
Perhaps we can reach little clear
err understanding OF what Washington
was and of what he did by placing
him in our own time. 1t was as II, at
the present time, man OF distin'
guished position and of wealth. were
to become leader in the labor move
ment. For. from the point of view oil
England. the colonials were humble
folk, mainly tillers of the field. work
ers in small enterprises. To their
cause Washington gave dignity, as
well as marvellous personal courage.
With his tattered. half-fed, poorly
trained troops he defeated the pro.
fessional soldiers of England and the
Hessian mercenaries. He had. OF
course. the superlative advantage of
being sustained by the power of a sub
lime moral idea, all the more effective
because it was opposed by the weak
ness that goes with self-conscious and
contemptuous superiority.
Really Deserves More Credit.
Washington has not been accorded
by the world the credit he deserves
for his share in establishing democ.
racy as a working force in a nation.
We are likely to forget that democ-
racy, while he fought for it, was not
accepted by the world as practicable.
To few it was beautiful theory. an
ideal. To the many it was impracti.
cable, denial of what they regarded
as the natural unfltness of human be-
ings in large masses to govern them
selves. From France. mainly through
Rousseau, lad come the great demo
cratic theory Blu. France had yet to
seek its establishment IN the blood OF
the French revolution.

HAS SUFFERED
FROM TRADITION
Modern Writer Gives Us New Ver-
sion of the Character OF
Washington.
Great Soldier as He Is Universally

Of the Rights of HUI
manlty.

n n ORE than any other American
Nu statesman, more than any
other American, Washington
has suffered from tradition,
writes John d. Barry In the Washing
ton Times.
In fact, can't think of any other
great man in the history of the world
who has been damaged in just the
same way, through being made to ap-
pear so good.
The reason is that he has been pre-
emiuently the children's hero.
He is a distinguished victim of the
deceit we practice on children In the
name of education.
Only the very good boys and girls

the cherry tree.
The others, tho majority, are bored,
or amused, or puzzled.
And then there is the 1aying, dinned
into the ears of American childhood,
washington never told lie."
1t alone aliehates vast numbers of
children from Washington. In their
little hearts II finds no answering
echo. no enthusiastic desire for emula-
ton
For truth telling, much as we love
II IN children, and much as we labor
to graft 1t on those highly imaginative
minds, is oftcn virtue that develops
only with years. related to intelli.
gence and to mature character.
1t derives it's beauty largely from
association with other qualities more
sympathetic.
Do Real Damage to Truth.
Self-assertive truth-tellers often
seem rigid IL character. They do
great damage to truth by making il
cen, not beautiful. as it should be-
but hideous.

reputation OF Washington there still

Washington into THE Virginians" as
a highly self-conscious and priggish
colonial.
There is a fine chance for a new
historian of Washington, one who will
bring out the real man.
Owen Wister made a start some
years ago, when he published a little
book, emphasizing Washingtons more
human qualities. But the book was
too slight to be comprehensive. Mr.
Wister may yet write thu complete
history needed by the world Of today.
For today. of all times. the world
ought to reflect on the service of
Washington in the making Of this ma
ton and on the attitude of Washing
ton toward the future of this nation.
Washington Seer.
Since the Spanish war the Farewell
Address, once a classic and apparent
ly Just about as much alive as most
classics, has fallen into disfavor. We
don't hear of its being pointed to
with pride" as often as we did.
Perhaps If we do go back to It we
shall find that Washington. besides
being a soldier and a statesman. was
seer.
And a seer as much more interesting
than a little boy that chops down a
cherry tree or a man that has never
told a lie.
A seer has a way of projecting him
self into the future and finding new
life there.
AS a prophet Washington is a vital
force today. But he is a force that
has been consciously and deliberately
disregarded.
Washington, the hero of Valley
Forge, was essentially man OF peace.
He saw that he happiness and secu-
rity OF this country lay, just as the
happiness of an individual did, in a
policy of noninterference.
And as soon as this country ceased
to follow this policy Washington fore
saw complications.
ON the surface II seems strange that
man whose inheritance and ways OF
life were aristocratic should be re
EdIutu db NnC AaNhNA VI <AAhSl ivan dC'
mocracy.
Ard to the present-day point OF view
It is all the more strange when we re.
call the repr zach made against Wash
ington that "the great Virginian held
slaves"
But Washington, to be judged fair.
ly. like everyone else. must be consid
cred with reference to his time and
surrounding conditions.
Washington deserves little credit for
not yielding TO the temptations to as
