Policy Of Negotiation.
To maintain our national honor by
peace If we can, by war If we must
is the motto of the president Of the
United States.
But before submitting to the chance
and misery of war, true statesman
that he is, he proposes to put the rea-

but they forget 1t does satisfy those
who believe the United States should
live up to the principles it has pro-
fessed for a century and more.
National Honor.
In desperation for a slogan our op-
ponents try to create an issue out Of
national honor.
Now national honor is not the whim
of an individual mind.
National honor is the composite sem
timent, the composite reason of a
whole people feeling the emotions of
nature and following the dictates Of
God.
And It Is for this eason that 'the
power" to declare war is conferred
by the Constitution of the United
States, not on the individual will of
president, but on the composite rea-
son. the representative decision of
"the congress of the United States"

peace. There is no danger of mill

We have built our greatness on the
resources of nature and the peace

With us war has never been a
choice, it has always been a fate.
Like the old Mohawk chief who
loved peace, we would like to throw
the tomahawk of war so high In the
sky that no mans hand could ever
pull 1t down. But when some other
tribe among the races of men sends
US a bundle of arrows wrapped in
the skin of a rattlesnake, we want to
be In a position to send that rattle

We deprecate the compulsion but
we recognize the need of the police

The war TT the seas has
brought home to US the fear that so

For these this administra-

our navy than any administration in
our history.
The Democratic party advocates and
seeks preparedness, but 1t is prepared

Interesting Point In
Murder Case Before
the Supreme Court

A point raised for the first time in
the history of New Mexico courts came
up in the state supreme court this
morning when Case No. 1880, State of
New Mexico, appellee, VS.. Thomas J,
Belisle, appellant (Colfax county,,
was argued by Attorney John Morrow
and State Senator e. C. Champion, of
Ration. for appellant, and Miguel A.
Otero, Jr, of the attorney generals
Office, for the appellee.
The indictment, which was for al
legged murder, stated that the murder
had been committed with a weapon
unknown to the jury" The appel
liant tried to show that the instru-
ment was known and a variance had
therefore resulted. The state con-
tends that the variance is immaterial
The case grew out of the death of
William C. Payne two or three years
ago in Colfax county, and it was ru-
mored that he had been struck over
the head with a pitchfork.
Case No. 1879, Ben F. Gooch, appel
lee, VS.. Henry Coleman, appellant $50

Judge M. G. Spicer and Attorney J..
G. Fitch appearing in the case.
Case No. 1905, State of New Mex

motion to dismiss for failure of appel

Governor Mcdonald. yesterday aft.

who acted as interpreter, and by
Charles f. Kanen, who made a steno.
graphic record of the statements Of
each Of the prisoners.
The governors visit was in line
with his determination thoroughly to
Investigate the cases of the seven
VBllistas. He has sent for the court
record of the trial of the men at Dem

men were sentenced by Judge Medler
to be hanged at Deming On May 19.
Since reaching the penitentiary here
all the Villistas have made the claim
that they were formerly Carrancistas,
and that they were captured by Villa
and his men had given the alternative
of joining their forces of facing the
firing squad. They have claimed, fur
Their, that at the time of the Columbus
raid they were left In charge of the
horses, some Of them explaining this
by saying that as they had been Car
rancistas Villa was suspicious of their
loyalty and was unwilling to take
them into the town. In connection
with the raid, however, the horses
were the VilIistas' most valuable pos
sessions, as they represented their
only means of getting away after the
massacre, and in view of this fact II
is improbable, to say the least, that
they would have been left In charge
of men whose loyalty Villa doubted
