Mexican Situation Rad

Reports from Mexico and the Mex
lean border continue to be most dis
couraging. The military authorities
declare that It may take months In
get Villa, who has not been slow to
avail himself of the long start af-
forled him by the unprepared condl,
ton of the army and the vacillation
OF the administration in Washington
Trustworthy reports from Mexico
City and that vicinity indicate that
the GaFranza regime is tottering and
liable to fall at any moment. Mext-
can dollars are now worth two cents,
United States money, and Carranza
Is threatening to seize all the proper
ty Of the Catholic church to recoup
the treasury. Felix Diaz is threaten
Ing Carranza's rear, while the Car
RAMA forces supposed to be in pul-
suit of Villa are exhibiting little
alacrlty In the chase. many OF them
having been followers of Villa in
the past, and practically all OF them
being haters Of Americans.
Members Of Congress are being
flooded with kilograms and petitions
from along the border pleading for
tncfeased military protection, and
there are practically no more troops

Congress Dlstrusts President.

President Wilson has issued a pub
lie statement charging that reports Of
danger along the Mexican border are
exaggerated and part of plot TO force
Intervention. That many Of these re-
ports result from unnecessary fear and
that some may be exaggerated is prob
ably true, but thet they are due To
any plot no one but the president and
his intImates believe. Mr.. Wilson and
his cabinet are prone to cry "ploF'
and lobby" whenever anyone says
anything they do not like. Mr.. Wilson
charged the existence of lobby to de-
feat his tariff legislation. An investt-
CATION by Congress failed to reveal
any. Then he shouted lobby" when
the shipping bill was defeated. and
again an investigation failed to reveal
any.
In order that those at distance
from Washington may clearly
understand the situation In Congress
1t Is necessary that they should realize
that Woodrow Wilson has completely
forfeited the confidence OF majority
OF the members nf Congress. no mem
uE! III lnS IlDHSt OF SeGlRIH IL WllIlnE
to rise in Congress and declare that
he does not place any reliance in Mr..
Wilson'S statements. that he does not
believe the president Of the United
States tells tho truth. Such n public
statement would he too great a dis
grace to the United States. IT. would
be too unnntrlotIc. But that Is largely
the fact. In priVHte conversation they
do not hesitate to say. regretfulIy but
emphatically. that they place little re-
lance whatever on my statement the
president, or majority of his cabinet,
makes 10 them or TO the public.
Moreover: they have been forced to
the conclusion thnt Mr.. Wilson and his
intimates do not hesitate to coerce
their subordinntes into asserting any
thing the administration desires should
be said. That is why, for instance,
they believe the representations OF
Senator Fall. who has gone to New
Mexico, and of residents along the
boundary and are skeptlcal regarding
denials which come from ofilceholders
under this administration.

to say the following:

Another German Crisis.

The sinking of the steamers Sussex
and Engllshman resulting In the
death OF one American and the serl-
GUS woundlng OF two others has pro-
duced another German crisis" the
outcome OF which no man can fore
tell. President Wilson has formally
notified Germany that the torpedoing
without warning Of passenger ship
which results in the death Of one or
more American citizens will mean
war with the United States. That,
and that alone, Is the meaning Of the
diplomatic correspondence which has
been had when Ii is stripped of dip
lomatic verbiage.
Furthermore. Mr.. Wilson. through
his influence with Congress, COM
PEELED both Houses to lay on the ta-
BILE a resolution designed to warn
Americans off belligerent ships. Ger
many has, 1t Is true, warned this
country that 1t will sink, without
warning, every belllgerent passenger
ship which is armed, even IL only
for self-defense. And as it is prac-
tically impossible for a submarine
which dare not go near enough TO
warn a large ship to determine
whether or not the ship is armed,
for self-defense or otherwise, that
means that Germany will continue to
sink belligerent vessels without
warning.
The issue is. therefore. clearly
cut. All reports regarding the Sus-
sex and Engllshman indicate that
they were sunk without warning and
that an American was killed.
Furthermore, in this case the Amer1-
cans on the Sussex had no choice.
They could not take an American or
neutral ship because there are mono
such crossing the English channel to
France. Some Of the reports assert
that two OF the Americans on board,
but not those injured. were couriers
from the American embassy In Lon
don to the American embassy In
Paris.
win Mr.. Wilson eat his words, us
he has done so often before. espe-
ciaily with Mexico? Will he merely
engage in a prolonged academic dis
cussion of details? These are, OF
course. questions which only Mr..
Wilson can answer. but the situation
is most unfortunate and 1t is entirely
the result of the "blufFing' policy
which from the first this. admintstra-
ton has pursued.

an Danfels DeniaI. !,

Secretary DanieIs's attempt to
riuzzle Fiske and his punishment OF
the admiral because he had told the
truth to members Of Congress was
first told some time ago. Secretary
Daniels promptly denied the report.
Representative Padgett, chairman Of
the naval committee, desperately
tried to prevent Admiral Fiske from
being called as a witness, but Rep
resentative Britten insisted and the
admiral was called. On the stand
he confirmed every detail OF the ac-
count Of the interview with Daniels.

Questioned as to why more mon

he told Of the report Of the navy
general board urging. among other
things, an increased enlistment OF
1880 men, how Daniels had sent
the report back with word that he
would suppress 1t entirely unless the
recommendation was stricken out
and how, to save the rest OF the re-
port, the general board had stricken
out It's recommendation.
"A Daniels denlal' has come to be

al Tnlk ann Thrift.


Thrift Is that feeling which comes
over you when you know you've been

throws them wildly at negroes head.

contraptlon devised to lure him away

away with a detected look?
Did you ever go on an outing. or on
nights pleasure bent, and be a
good fellow" good spender" and
go home with that what-did-I-get-out-
of-lt feeling?
That was your conscience entering
a protest against waste-you'r thrift
ty self struggling against your thrift
less self. trying to show you that
you waste money only to regret 1t.
and, even though you forget 1t. you
won't alter the situation. y
Every summer resort Is built upon
the proposition that most everybody
wastes a certain amount OF money,
gets foolish at times, takes throw
or two at something they know they
can't hit, Just to see how 1t feels. Con-
