THE
TROUBLESOME MEXICAN.

Our relations with Mexico have al.
ways been made difficult by the pecu-
liar character of the Mexicans. In the
present crisis the most menacing fac
tor Is, as usual, the combined pride
and ignorance OF the Mexicans.
General villa is reported to have
said not long ago that he presumed
he could lick the whole United States
IL he had to. When such an utterance
from a man who failed to lick Car.
ranza's ragged followers, and who has
spent considerable time in this coun.
try and knows us far better than most
OF his fellow-countrymen do, what may
we expect of the ignorant, prejudiced
poems that make up the bulk of the
population?
In our war in 1847, we swept aside
the Mexican forces in battle after bat.
tie, as IL they had been so many straw
soldiers. They never won a single
fight, big or little. And yet, for many
years after the war. the Mexican PEG.
pie celebrated with annual feasts two
of their great national victories. !"
The $15,000,0O0 that we paid them. to
ease our conscience, for the seizure of
New Mexico and Upper California,
they took as reparation money they
had forced us to pay for invading their
territory.
The less-a Latin has to be proud Of,
the prouder he's likely to be. The
barefoot peon without education, with.
out skill, without knowledge of any
thing beyond his native village, with.
out a particle OF property except cir
Gus hat and ragged shirt and trous.
ers, knows perfectly well that he is
the superior OF the "gringo." With a
rifle In his hands and well filled
cartridge belt, his egotlsm becomes
limitless and perllous--all the more SO
because he has few moral scruples
and little fear OF death, and regards
bloodshed as n mere detail in the days
work.
It's hard to deal with such race.
Our ideals mean little TO them. Our
SLhIluaTuS are not tnelTB. we can
meet them on common ground. There
are, of course. intelligent and cultured
Mexicans who can face us on terms of
complete equality, but they are com.
paratively few and have little effect
on the great. unleayened mass of their
compatriots.
Mexican war ls cross between
civilized warfare and indian fighting.
It speaks the language OF modern war.
fare. but It's method and spirit are
savage. Mexlcans fight most natural
