MEXICO A PEST HOLE

When American troops moved
across the Rio Grarde and dispersed
a so-caned army of NeXicans they
did precisely the proper thing. The
fighting around Juarez had grown
intolerahe to the citizens of the
American town of Ell Paso. Ameri-
can property had been damaged and
American lives had been endangered
To drive eff bandits and border
raiders varic'ls incursions into Mex
leo frequently have been made, hence
the movement on Juarez was no
precedent. 1t was on larger scale
than usual, that was all.
1t so happened that the men I'M
der the control of Villa did the
shoting-or presumably so-into
American territory. 1t was his
forces, therefore, against whom our
own troops proceeded. But, as the
Philadelphia Inquirer says, "it must
be plainly understood that the Uni
ted States cannot play favorites. II
the Carranza regulars give otfense,
they must be treated precisely as
were the Villistas. Truth to tell,
there is little to choose between the
opposing sides. Mexico is a pest
hole, and surely the time has come
to insist that it shall be cleaned up.
We have been engaged in bringing
to a victorious end the war which
involved most of Europe. There was
some excuse while it lasted for mac
tivity in Mexico. But there is no
longer an excuse for leniency. Mex
leo should be Informed that hence
forth she will be expected to perform
her international duties in every
rcspect-or take the consequences.

cry concession has been made. The Ial
issue is OF peace or the grim eonse-
quences of refusal. That IS Berhn's
alternative. S 80 2{
AS the New York World says, IN
the face Of this situation German
statesmen must drop at last their
pretense that they have been nego-
ttating peace with the Entente as
equals. Their protests have amaz-
iingly ignored phe hard fact of con
quest. The hours are not many
within which Germany must bow to
the terms imposed upon her or IN
wife occupation. It is. a hard alter
native; bitter awakening for
people misled by pratings Of victory
Far more mercful than the fate
they had prepared for others, THEIRS
is still fate graved by the sword
point; and this they must now
know. Let the German people rec,
kon as they will with any at home
who have deceived them. In very
little while they must make theil
choice between peace or war upon
the terms submitted"

MAN AND WIFE

The Washington Herald contains
the following today:
ave believe that a wife should
know enough about her husbands
business to be able to manage it. or
at least watch with understanding
the management of it, if he dies, so
we hold. that the husband should
know enough about the rearing Of
children, and the work of the house.
to be independent if his wife dies, or
goes home to mother, or decides to
tour for suffrage The average man
is pitiful sort Of a boob when Taft
alone with the children. And there
is no excuse for him not knowing
where the safety pins go in the
clothes of little brother, or where the
flour bin, is, or what the chain dish
cloth is on earth for. A man can
learn to cook his own meals in much
less time than i tax to master
golf, and washing dishes is not much
harder than going fishing. Indeed
the husband that can put on and.
take off, the family wash, and who
kens the distinction between boiling
the white clothes and not boiling the
colored clothes, may easily save
himself lot of grief, and several
big round ten dollar pieces. The
monctomy of homework is what
gals, but for short season the job
is not unpleasant. The husband
who can make bread and turn out a
batch of cookies, and achieve Gus
tard pie with decent bottom crust,
has the edge on his brethren, who
eat from : caa when their wives go
to the seashore. There would ba
fewer divorce courts if the man knew
enough about the tedium of constant
keeping house to appreciate the
wife's. OCCASIONAL need for short va
cation. The man who can once a
week take charge of the evening
neal and leave the pantry as he
found it besides, will be happy
husband, and the wife who can I'M
derstandingly sit on her husbands
icb will be a happy wife"
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, one OF
the mostpronlinent of American
clergymen, died in 1887. At that
time the newspapers published many
interesting incidents in the life OF
the famous preacher. among them
chapters on his early life and his
fight against poverty At one time
Beecher had charge Of small
church in sparsely settled section
in the west. His parsonage was a
log house. His salary was meagre,
he could not afford to employ help,
ard when his wife was in confine-
mcnt he oheerfully washed the |
clothes Of the family, and performed
all culinary and other services until
his better half got on her feet,
again.

Colonel Hayes, of the Seventh lntan-

his men had been sent out 'to guard
