The Journal speaks authoritatively
of what Governor Mcdonald will do.
Speaking in this "inside information"
manner is a confirmed habit of the
Journal. The Graphic does not pre-

the foot of the steps leading into
th, hotel As the warm blood spurt-
ed forth from n dozen wounds ara
the old man gasped in his last agony,
poor downtrodden poems knelt be-
side him and-cut his throat from
ear to ear. Did Villa froce them to
this act of barbarisml The. tele-
phone operator, Mrs. Parks, clug,
with her baby to her breast, to her
switch board calling Deming for as
-istancc, while the mauser bullet,
tore through the thin walls Of the
little office. The gallant soldiers
of the garrison rushed the bandits
with bare hands IN the dark to get
their guns and ammunition to beat
of the attack. For two hours at
least the brave pioneers of the lit
tie border village underwent the tor
ture of sack by foe that is as mer-
riless rs the red savages of Gero-
nimo. Is there nothing in all this to
excite sympathy Is there nothing
in the bearing of the American cit
izens and soldiers to call froth ad-
mration7 It is recorded that not
even an American baby whimpered.
Yet the Journal could see in the
tragedy only the bravery of a MeNi-
can consular officer who tried to
save several American women IN the
Commercial hotel. 1t took the lead
in a bmbbering effort to buy monu-
mcnt to be sci mp in Mexico, The
gallant action of the Mexican was
certainly commendable and showed
that he at least was almost human.
I'm Columbus they are raising a
fund to buy monument too, but II
will be- reared in the United States OF
America to commemorate the fort
itudc of the Americans that fought
desperately for their homes and a
right to live in the United States. II
there is sympathy to be extended
these Keepers of the border should be
the recipients, and If there is admir-
alton to bestow these hardy pioneers
should be commended
