The Mexican Note.

In its actual text the note from the
Mexican government to the United
States, delivered today, is totally differ
emit from the memorandum recently is
sued at Mexico City. and comprising, it
was indicated, the reply by Mexico to
the Lansing note of June 90 Had the
formal statement of Mexico to the
United States followed the lines of that
memorandum it would have been diff
cult to avert a collision
The note delivered today is concih
atory and offers the basis of an adjust
ment which it will be easy for the
United States to accept. Expressing the
thought that the release of the Carrizal
prisoners was proof of the sincerity of
Mexico's desire to reach pacific ar
rangement of present difficulties, the
Mexican government suggests that the
withdrawal of American troops from Mex
leo and the protection of the frontier
are the two essential problems. the So
luton of which must be the directing
object of the efforts of both govern
ments.'
There is no demand for the withdrawal
of the American troops, though the note
states that their stay is both trespass
on the sovereignty of Mexico and is
thr immediate cause of the conflicts be-
tween the forces of the two countries.
II acknowledges that the belief of this
government that the insecurity of it's
frontier is source Of difficulty is rea-
sonable.
/. Having thus presented its grievance
and that of the United States in con
formation of issues Mexico plainly in
dicates its desire to- adjust the ques-
ton on the basis of the withdrawal of
the American troops and the assump-
ton of responsibility by it of the main
tenance of peace along the border. 1t
hints at the acceptance of the media
ton of the several Latin American ceun-
tries that have rendered their good Of
fees, but suggests that it will be salts
fed with direct negotiations.
The outstanding character of this note
10 its brevity and its restraint from any
acrimony. 1t is a surprisingly mild
document, obviously calculated to reach
. pacific issue, and undoubtedly goes far
to relieve the strain between the two
: countries and lessons the likelihood of
Q conflict

A Kiteless Tail.

Col Parker of Louisiana, nominated
for Vice President by the bull moosers
and left without a mate, frets in his
loneliness, and his voice is still for war.
Addressing the buH moosers of the third
Louisiana congressional district, he ad-
jures them to press on in their work,
"unterrifed by desertion and fearless
of any opposition" A good, round, mill
tant tone.
At the congressional election in 1914
the third district, normally democratic,
chose bull mooser for representative,
a recruit from the democratic party. The
issue was sugar, the principal industry Of
the district. Mr.. Wilson had marked
sugar for the free list, and that meant
slaughter. So, many democrats revolted,
and the democratic candidate for Con-
gress was defeated.
Since then the exigencies of the reve-
nue. situation have forced the repeal of
the threatened slaughter, and sugar re-
mains on the dutiable list. The reve-
nue. from that source is large, and the
government needs it in its business.
1t is true, however, that free sugar re-
mains a democratic shibboleth. If Mr..
Wilson is reelected, and something like
normal in our economic affairs is
reached during his second term, sugar
may again be marched toward the chop
ping block.
1t is the Chicago and not the St. Louis
platform that promises permanent Sc
curity to sugar. Protection as a policy
means protection to all American in
dustries needing protection. The tariff
is not, as Gen. Hancock to his subse-
quent sorrow once declared, "a local
question" 1t does not mean one thing
in Louisiana and another thing in Mas
sachusetts, but the same thing every
where a deserving American industry
exists. "One for all, and all for one"
If the planters of Louisiana want their
sugar protected their duty is plain, They
should vote for the party promising pro-
lection, not as something incidental to
revenue, but as a definite policy-pro-
lection for its own sake-protection as
a national policy nationally applied. The
bull moose party as a national force is
dead. What is to be gained for sugar
OF any other industry asking protection
by voting under a sign no longer signify
ing anythingf
When Col Parker went to the bull
moose national convention he had no
thought of vice presidential nomina-
ton for himself. The proposition was
to put up the old ticket of Roosevelt
and johnson. But both those men are
now supporting Hughes. Col Parker is
tail disconnected from his kite. He
cannot hope to rise.

Mr.. Hughes at Work.

Mr. Hughes is taking great pains with
his speech of acceptance. He is prepar-
ing it "far from the madding crowds
ignoble strife" New York city is too
noisy and distracting. Bridgehampton is
quiet, and promotes concentration.
On his table is piled material Of all
kinds bearing upon the subjects he is to
handle. He is going through it with the
eve of a trained reader and the brain
of trained SITTER And after he has
mastered it he will put the case in his
own form and words.
That form is said to be 'the case of
the republican party against Woodrow
Wilson" This smacks of the lawyer,
and Mr.. Hughes is concededly a great
LAWYER. Thus, on his native heath, so
to say, and employing tools with which
he is familiar, he should be at his best
on an occasion of the highest impor-
lance to himself and his cause.
Mr.. Wilson is distinctly the opposi-
ton. He has absorbed his party. He
has dominated it from the moment he
crossed the threshold of the White
House.
At st. Louis not voice was raised
against Mr.. Wilson's denomination. Mr..
Bryan was present in the convention
and addressed it by invitation. Every
body was for Wilson, and everything
was shaped in his behalf
Whatever case exists, therefore, is
against Woodrow Wilson. The demo
cratic party, for the time, has disap-
peared. If reelected, Mr.. Wilson will
feel authorized and empowered to con-
tinue to pursue his own way. The st..
Louis platform will signify just what
he decides it should. The new Congress
will be expected to accept his recon-
mendations as willingly as has the old.

The Fiercest Foe.

OF all the enemies we know,
The worst we have to fear
When summer skies all fercely glow
And cool waves disappear.
We strive to keep placid mind.
Our "don'ts" do not avail,
For suddenly we turn and find
A microbe on our trail.
As treacherous as the midnight foe
Who sneaks upon a ranch,
No flag Of truce he deigns to know;
He heeds no olive branch.
With boldness we may face the men
Who recklessly assail,
But prudence must direct us when
A microbe takes the trail
