Whg Zupata Fought
From, the Philadelphia Ledger.

About three years ago Mexican news
paper sent a man into the state of Morelos,
where Zapata had his headquarters, to inter-
view him. The man found him hidden in a
bowl-like valley in the mountains, access to
which was through a narrow winding gorge
about = mile long, guarded at both ends by
armed men. "Our appearance in the little val
ley" writes the man, was the signal tor an
instant running forward of 50 men, all with
rifles at ready and perfect willingness to fire
apparent in their every notion Walking be-
hind the leader Of my guards, l advanced to-
ward the hut. Entirely surrounding the little
stone house were men, all dressed in black. all
armed with rifles and revolvers, and all ap-
preached and barred the way into the hut, but
as we talked the curtain was brushed aside and
Zapata himself stood in the doorway.
"What do you wantT" he asked.
my guard started to reply and Zapata broke
81 am talking to the stranger. not to you;
speak when I speak to you. Go to your post
1.-THE guard left me, though I was still
surrounded by the personal bodyguard OF Zap
alta, who had risen from their positions around
the hut and stood in semicrcle back OF me,
as if to prevent flight.
Now, said Zapata come in here where
can see you. Too many people want to see me.
So you want to know why / fight, and how
strong my forces areT Zapata asked.
81 am fighting for three things he went
on, when coffee was brought; first, to free all
Mexico of foreigners especially the Spaniards
and the Americans; second to give back to the
Indians their lands, taken from them by the
Diaz government, the Madero government and
now by the Carranza government; third, to give
Mexico an honest president, ruler who will
give justice to the 100000 poor people as to
the 100000 so-called upper classes" and the
few hundred thousand foreigners who have
been allowed to drain the country of the great
riches Of the soil. have fought for these things
my control every foreigner has been driven out
or killed; every wealthy Mexican has been COM
PEELED to return his wealth to the Indians to
whom II rightfully belongs, and the land has
been distributed to every peon who wanted a
share of it.
"T am the man who should be president
Zapata continued. 'Diaz, de la Barra, Huerta,
Carranza and Villa have tried to rule the coun-
try, along with half dozen others, and all have
failed ,
"But IL you do become president what do
you plan to dor" persisted.
THE first thing will be to drive all the
foreigners from Mexico All of them have done
Mexico much harm, but the first ones to go
will be the Americans. Then l will destroy
all the railroads, so that they cannot come back.
Before we had railroads we had few foreigners,
especially Americans, in Mexico, and we were
happy. If we had no, railroads now we should
have no foreigners, and we should have peace
and happiness again. Mexico can produce every
thing she needs; therefore we do not need any
foreign trade Outside commerce always has
been for the profit of the foreigners and not to
the gain of us Mexcans, 80 why should we
allow it,"

The H1Qh Cost of Learning

To the considerable group Of eastern col
leges lately announcing higher tuition fees,
Yale has now joined itself by statement that
its charge for instruction will shortly be in
creased to $240 year. This means an advance
of $40 over the sum which students in the scen-
tific department have been accustomed to pay
and of $50 for students in the department of
liberal arts Among the increases announced
by other institutions have been Dartmouth's ad-
vance from $l40 to 5000 per annum, and an adj
vance by the Massachusetts, Institute of Tech
nology from $3.50 to $780,
Upon only one condition could this rising
cost of collegiate instruction be greatly re-
GREETED If the rise were left unaccompanied
by an equal compensating increase in the size
and extent of the scholarship support offered
to students of little MEANS the colleges had bet
ter go out of business than advance their
charges. Fortunately, however, no such alter
native is posed. In nearly all cases the an
nouncement of higher charges has gone hand
in hand with an announcement of larger and
more accessible scholarships for the boys who
deserve and require them. With this much
taken care of, the higher tuition charges need
cause little concern. They result from the in
creased expenses which colleges, in company
with all other institutions and undertakings
have been forced to bear in the general read
justment of prive levels which has lately &C.
Cured If the exaction of somewhat higher
charge from the students who can afford to
pay more for their tuition leads to correspond
ing increase in the salaries of college profess
sors, and at the same time does not fall as
burden upon the students who cannot afford
to pay more, it will be rather blessing than
an injury.-Boston Transcript.

Uncle Sans RailroadlmQ

Hard-headed Canadians whose best wish is
to see their country grow and prosper are not
at all favoraby impressed with the results of
government operation of the railroads of the
United States, undertaken as war measure.
The Canadian government is in the railroad
business on rather extensive scale, and there
are government ownership "fans" in the Do
minion who favor going the rest of the way.
Others look seriously askance at such pro-
posal, and they have been confirmed in their
views by scrutiny of what has happened under
Uncle Sans railroad adventure.
Government control Of the railways in the
United States" says the Montreal Star editori-
ally, "has proven itself to be lamentable and
terrificably expe re failure. Can there be
any possible reason for punging head over heels
into the same mo-ass in Canada, now that it is
no longer war measure!"
Charles E. Mitchell New York business
man, told the Canadian club in Montreal the
other day some things about American gov
up and take notice. The figures he cited are
as interesting to the people Of this country
as to Canadians. Mr.. Mitchell said that the
American people. as the price for poorer serv-
ice than they ever experienced under private
operation, paid 1865 100000 in increased rates
! and then were called upon to make up deficit
Of $2l0000000, It thus appears that govern
ment operation W IS not SO much privilege as
a penalty expressed in terms of 81, 075,000000,
The American people have no complaint
to make because the railroads were taken over
as a war measure. That governmental action
was commanded by the emergency that was
upon the country. Uncle Sam could unity and
correates transportation facilities to ways not
open to the companies in their private capacity.
The country does not have to have in peace,
however. what it had in war, and enough has
been learned about government railroad opera
ton in the last year or two to convince most
straight-thinking Americans that that kind of
service by the government is something quite
undesirable Minneapolis Tribune

Bakers Verbal Camouflage.

Our genial, optimistic and voluble secretary
OF war is laying up more trouble for himself
through his too active tongue. That is, it would
be trouble for an ordinarily gifted person, but
Mr.. Baker appears to be impervious on the
point of whether or not events bear out his pre-
dictions. Just now he is out with statement
that the American soldiers will be all out of
France by August Perhaps, but that does not
mean they will all be at home. Read the Sec
retarys statement little more closely, and you
will note that he distinguishes those in the
army Of occupation as being left in Germany
Out of France, yes, but also out Of America
Moreover, he says his statement is based on an
estimated troop movement of 100000 month,
which has not yet beeen attained What the
fathers and mothers of America would ap-
preciate is less of this sort of loose talk from
Washington and more of definite performance
1t would be welcome news to know that the
last of the boys will be on their way back
within ninety days, but the secretary Of war is
not helping matters with his CHEEKY gulf

CourtesY Government

In Kentucky we have courtesy laws" which
give married women the best of it in matters of
property. Nobody, so far as the record shows,
objects to them. In the United States we have
courtesy government which, through the courts,
gives women married or unmarried, old or
young, the best of treatment in court when
they are in court as plaintiffs in civil actions or
as defendants in criminal trials. If it is not
true that nobody objects it is true at least that
nobody objects effectively.
In ST. Louis girl, described as being tele-
phone operator 10 years old, shot and killed
her stepfather. She says he attacked her Two
years and half ago, when she was between 10
and II years of age, if her present age is stated
correctly, the girl shot and killed her father
She said her father was mistreating her mother
The coroner's jury accepted the explanation
as sufficient. She was exonerated.
Should boy Is years old kill second man
the general view would be that it would hardly
do to encourage him by letting him run longer
at large, but boy never has really first-rate
excuse for more than one killing After the first
killing the excellence of his intentions is doubt
ed. His word is suspected of not being as good
as a Liberty bond. In the case of girl it is
quite the other way. Once heroine always a
heroine.-Louisville Courier Journal.

European Visits Ill-Advised.

very natural desire, sprngng from
curiosity as well as sympathy, prompts many
Americans to plan trip to Europe as soon as
restrictions on ocean travel are removed Great
steamship lines, notably the Cunard, are pre-
pairing for this, arranging accommodations for
heavy travel. The desire to see the battle fields,
to visit the fought-cver ground, the devastated
regions and destroyed cities, is the impulse that
prompts those who have the means to look for
ward to the journey. On the other hand, the
governments of France, Belgium and Italy
plainly hint that for the time they will take the
absence of American tourists as proof of
friendly interest. Neither of these countries is
in condition to entertain guests. 1t is not
only the food problems, the work Of reconstruc-
ton, and the adjustment of broken national life
to new and not yet we'll defined relations, but
the question of public health also is involved.
About every good reason is advanced in favor
of postponing European travel for another sea-
son at least Our own government will un-
doubtedly assist in this by Withholding pass
ports

Wilson, as a Ldnguist.

Wilson, as . Ldnguist.
Nebraska City, Neb., May 3.-To
the Editor Of The Bee: I have no.
ticed in the dispatches from Europe
that President Wilson had made a
speech In the chamber Of deputies
at Paris, and that the Interpreter
stood beside him and translated his
speech as he went along. I would
like to know whether our president
is linguist, and IL so what Ian
guage he speaks. Does he under
stand French so as to be able to
read and write it If not to under
stand it when spoken? In what
language are the negotiations con-
Quoted and in what language are the
discussions conducted?
e. F.w.
Answer-It Is our understanding
that Mr.. Wilson has a conversational
use of the French language, as we'll
as ability to read and write it with
facility; whether he would under
take to make an important speech
in that tongue may be doubted. The
treaty is being prepared in both
English and French, and 1t has been
intimated the official copy will be
in English, although the French
academy has respectfully petitioned
that it be in French, because that
has for two centuries or longer been
the language of diplomacy. Each
Of the governments represented at
Paris has its interpreters, and great
est care is being taken to render the
proceedings of the commissions into
the language Of the country for
which it Is intended.

CONGRESS CALLED TO MEET.

Fully equal in importance to the signing OF
the peace treaty, because Of its local application,
is the assembly Of congress in extraordinary
session. Almost the entire program of the
Sixty-hfth congress so far as the continuation
OF the government and any reconstruction work
is concerned went by the board on March 4.
The date for converting the body, May l9, allows
but six weeks, scant time, for the preparation
and passage of the great appropriation bills
needed to keep the business of the federal gov
eminent going. II does not permit the enact
ment of any serious remedial legislation before
the end of the fiscal year.
Much will have to be done; liquidation Of
war contracts, now in process, must be given
legislative assistance; the return of the tele-
graphs and telephones to their owners will call
for immediate action; the future of the railroads
still waits on congressional action, and the
active resumption Of private enterprise depends
very greatly on what is done with these matters,
that now can be dealt with only by congress.
Until they are out of the way all business of the
country will be restricted because of the un-
certainty that now prevails. Incidental to the
general program. may be noted Secretary Lanes
plans for extensive reclamation work. to provide
farms for soldiers, the educational campaign
that is part of the AUGMENTATION movement,
revision Of the War Risk insurance law, dis
posal of the government-owned ship building
plants and long list of other similar matters
that must be attended to in order that the ma
ton may get back to peace footing.
Mr.. Wilson has allowed more than two
months to pass, time that could prohtably have
been spent in preliminary discussion and COM
mittee consideration. His call now means that
congress will have busy time until the end of
June if it aceomplishes even the urgency work
that is on the calendar

then darling away, he would be a
match for any dog. He wasn't going
to give Peggy or the Mysterious
knight chance to beat him In this
test.

HE is coming this way" shrieked
King Bird. Run, Princess Peggy"
Peggy turned, only to gasp with
dismay at what she saw-on the
ground were scores Of little birds,
just out Of their nests and as yet un-
able to fly. What would happen II she
deserted them? Forgetting her own
safety, Peggy. armed with her stick,
turned to face any danger that
might appear.
There was shaking Of the tall
marsh grasses and out from among
them ran f1erce-looking dog. Nc
wonder the birds had called him
wild. His eyes were glaring horribly
and froth was on his lips. From his
muzzles stuck out dozen of great
bristles.
Mad dog!' 'shrieked the birds
and they flew in all directions.
The dog was headed for Peggy
and she braced herself to meet his
attack. Then Of a sudden she was
seized by the arm and thrust back
ward. The Mysterious Knight jump
ed in from of her. AS he did so his
sword caught in bush and fell from
his hand. The knight didn't wait tC
pick it up. The dog was too near
The knight met him with only his
hands as weapons.
On lunged the dog, his face snarl-
ed in agony. Forward shot the
