Speaking to the NIcyicans

TIE Mexican nation is slow to realize that
TINS country cntertans n disinterested
friendship for its neighbor, but it is possible
that President Wilson'S address to the Next
can editors who visited him. backed ND nv
America record of action, will convince the
Mexican people that we do not mean to eS-
plot them, to absorb them to annex one
men OF their territory exact one dollar of
their money. This address must be accented
at its face value because the sincerity Of il
and tho simplicity OF il cannot fail to he
understood
If the Mexican nation had the power to
reflect and would exercise that power. IL
would sec in instant that the United
States OF to-day seeks no ACKNOWLEDGEMENT M
Me2icos expense and none at the expense OF
any nation. for that matter Twice within
five years it has been within the range of
opportunity for the United States to appro-
pirate any all Of Mexico that this country
might desire, and to do so at q relatively
small investment Of blood treasure Moth
ing could have been more simple than tho
capture Of Mexico City at the time Vera
Cruz was occupied. and IA year or so later
1t would have been equally as simple for
this country to have followed up the Perish
ing expedition against Villa by taking over
Chihuahua. Sonora and any other of the
rich northern states of Mexico.
The United States magnanimousIy with
drew from Mexican soil on both occasions
and we withdrew without demanding in
demnity, without selling a square foot Of
territory and without outraging the feelings
or single Mexican citizen. All this was
done at time when the utmost provocation
toward conquest had been given. 1t was done
at a time when vested" interests in America
were shouting for the permanent occupation
OF Mexico and at a time when thousands OF
leading Mexicans themselves were urging the
United states to extend a protcctoratc over
their country that would restore and main
tain order.
In spite OF these evidences of good faith
on the part of President Wilson and his adj
ministrauon. many Mexican people still be-
lleve that American avarice medtates the
conquest of their country. They have listened
to the wild promises OF German propagandists
and TO the vagarics OF some Of their own
leaders, with the result that they arc dis
trustful Of American intentions toward tbcm
and some Of them are actually hostile TO MS
II they Will weigh carefully the Presidents
address and will consider it in the light nj
true American dsintcrest cdness, they must
conclude that the best friend thew have in

ment.

Some song my soul to sing.

And haunts my restless dreams,
TIL all the stars have fallen and
The suns have faded cold,
The debt shall grow. and still shall mount
