LAREDO, Texas, Dec. 23.-Warlike
moves against the United States by
President Carranza in defense OF
Mexican sovereignty are revealed for
the first time in Mexico's "blue
book"
This book contains notes ex.
changed between the United States
and Mexico and confidential mes
sages covering the period from Car
ranzas overthrow Of Huerta, through
Mexico's neutrality in the world war.
| 1t is designed for private circulation
among governments. particularly as
propaganda in Latin-Amertca.
There are warlike pages, part1cu-
larly in the record Of Pershing In
Mexico, called in the "blue book" the
columbus case" Pancho Villa
raided Columbus, N. NJ. March 3,
1916. One of the documents con.
tanned in the book reads:
"Document Number 10 telegram)
Celaya, Guanajuato, March 11.-Gen.
eral Manuel M. Dieguez. Emparme.
Sonora:
Am trying to prevent break with
United States. Fear anythings may
happen Place your troops In con.
venient points to prevent invasion OF
American troops. You should have
everything ready to destroy the line
from Nogales south and order the
same steps to be taken in Naco and
Aqua Prieta, If war is declared
Order construction of hand grenades
that will help US greatly. Hearty
greetings.
(Signed) 'V. Carranza."
A similar message was sent to
General Plucarto Gales, at Aqua
Prieta. Sonora, on that date. To
General Augustin MILAN, at Jalapa,
Vera Cruz, Carranza wired:
Our relations with United States
are at the verge of breaking on ac-
count of Columbus incident. sup
pose you are all ready.
March Immediately upon Vera
Cruz and take every kind Of precau-
ton so that in case American ma.
rines try to land you fight them
During the negotiations at Ell Paso
between General Hugh Scott and
General Alvaro Obregon, following
the Columbus raid, Carranza tele-
graphed Obregon from Chapultepec !:
Make known to General Scott that
any American force crossing the
boundary line without both govern
ments previously agreeing to treaty
to that effect shall be considered as
an invading force and l will order 1t
to be fought
The stand was repeated in subse-
quent directions to Obregon. Ac-
cording to the highest authority it Is
officially the stand of the Carranza
government today. But circumstances
may alter the case. For example
when the Twenty-fourth U. S. infan
try crossed into Juarez last July and
defeated Villistas who had previously
whipped the CarraDzista garrison.
In his formal report on the com
pleted parley, Obregon said he did
not convey the warning to Scott al
that time, but later. when American
troops crossed into Mexico to pursue
the Glenn Springs raiders, he impar TT
ed Carranza's messages.
Carranza telegraphed on May 2S
to General Alfred Ricaut at Mata.
moras and General Reynaldo Cara
at Nuevo Laredo, the following:
"If American forces should come
across the border line into our terri
tory through any point of the line
under your charge, you shall order
your men to fight them imnedi.
ately."
The following statement was made
in "a circular note" to the Latin.

WILL HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF?

WILL HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF?
With so many professors ready to
explain and expound history. Germany
should not lack for advisers these days
who will see in the collapse of all her
pretensions the repetition of the sit
uation that exised afer Napoleon had
won the battel of Jena, in October
1906, and. by the treaty of Tilsit in
1907 had all Prsussia at his feet with
Germany not even figuring in Europe
"as geographical expression" That
the professors and the present Prus-
sian government do see the analogy
goes without saying, since fsom all
those in authority in Prussia comes
the suggestion that with proper manip-
ulation they can beat the military
CLAUSES VI tic liOetly VI Nci iSoiiiOo
and possibly redeem their present sit
uation with a new defiance within a
few years just as the Battle of Leop-
sic. "The Battle of the Nations" in
1913 offset the collapse at Jena sew
en- years before.
That they are going about it in the
very same way is shown in that al
ready the prohibition of the reace
treaty that Germany's army shall
not exceed 100000 is being cut un
der by the proposal to organize a
special civic police force to look af-
ter order in Germany, which force
is to live in garrisons and to be I'M
I der the Minister of the Interior and
not the Minister of Defense. these
German caribineri, for that is what
they are, it seems, are to be recruit
ed in the proportion of one to each
go inhabitants in the city and ore t.
each 5000 population in the country.
That Prussia also hopes to induce the
other German states to adopt this plan
would seem to be foregone conclu-
sion. That it will prove popular goes
without saying erce this is exactly the
kind of thing that Prussia did in 1907
when it was forbidden by Napoleon to
] increase its army, which prohibition
| it got Grc;.nd by all sorts of yolun
teer military organizations and pure
militia for home needs, which volun
teers when the time came after seven
years of training were able to rove
once more that after all the real trade
of Prussia is fighting.
Nc one of course believes that this
sort of camouflage will deceive tht

Whitewater Lodge Gives
Captain StidhaIn's Sword
to W. P. Benton Camp

Believing it fitting that the relics
of the civil war should be preserved
in the G. A. r. post room at the court
house. Whitewater Lodge, I. o. o. F.,
has presented the sword Of Captain
Joseph T. Sudham, who was sheriff
of Wayne county when the civil war
broke out, to William P. Benton Camp,
Sons of Veterans.
At the beginning Of the civil war,
Captain Stidham resigned as sheriff
and recruited Co. c, 57th regiment,
Indiana Volunteer Infantry, and was
commissioned its captain. He was
engaged in the battles of Pittsburg
Landing, Perryville and Stone River.
In January, 1864, he re-enlisted. He
was in the battles of Mission Ridge
Kenesaw Mountain, and was instantly
killed by a musket ball piercing his
breast while leading his men upon
the rebel works at the seige Of At
lanta, and although his body lay in
sight of his men, it was several days
before they could recover it.
He was big-hearted man and good
to his men. 1t is said that on long
marches he often could be seen car
rying the equipment Of men who were
too weak to stand the fatigue. He
was a member of Whitewater lodge
and his sword was presented to the
lodge several years ago for preser-
walton.
