SO much as 4 word Of appreciation
for the many and trying months he
had spent in wrestling with the
Mexican situation, both. in Mexico

President Wilson simply closes
the book on the past. ignores the
talk about Withdrawing recogni-
ton, and sends to Mexico City a
new ambassador, a man who has
won distinction in the European
field of diplomacy and a personal
friend besides. So far as the 1920
campaign is concerned Mr.. Wilson
is no more disturbed about the
Mexican question as an issue than
he was in 1916 when the Carrizal
affair served to inflame public opin-
ion and develop more acute inter-
est than the subject arouses today.
To have withdrawn recognition. on

tration open to another charge of
Inconsistency in the Mexican sit
uation. Now the Wilson people
will continue to insist that the
United States is merely giving a
struggling republic an opportunity
to work out the policy of self de-
termination and that the five years
that have elapsed since recognition
was extended in 1915 is a brief per-
iod in which to work out recon-
struction policy considering the diff
iculties that Russia is having
after her revolution and that the
United States herself had after the
Civil war. To have made war on
Mexico would have offered ser
ious contradiction to the campaign
arguments which the Democrats
plan to make on the treaty Of peace
| and League Of Nations. They in
4, tend to exhibit the league and
treaty as the protecting and stabil-
izing influence whereby the veal
are protected from the aggressions
of the strong.

ly escaped probable death, suffered
painful and 1t may prove serious in
jurtes when tho automobile he was
driving was struck by a North
western locomotive on the South
Center street crossing at IL o'clock
Thursday night.
Tho locomotive, which was backing
UP from tho union station to couple
to~an east-bound freight iefe In the
west yards. did not overturn Bates
auto. The car was showed along the
track ahead OF the engine tank for
nearly 100 feet. Bates who was not
thrown out. had a rib on the right
side fractured and he suffered a
painful skin wound where his watch
was crushed against his abdomen.
Internal injuries are possible. 1t was
thought by the attending physician,
but whether they develop cannot be
told for a few days. At the home Of
Bates sister. Mrs. A w. Doane.
where the former lives and was tax
en-, 1t was said today that he was
suffering a good deal OF pain but was
resting as easily as could be expect
ed.
Bates was driving north. He
started across the series of tracks,
after the gate was lifted, it was said,
when an NJ. & st. L. swith engine
had cleared the crossing. Bates had
time to partly turn his car before the
Northwestern locomotive struck it.
One wheel Of the Paige touring car
was smashed off, which Is thought to
have prevented 1t from turning over
at once. It was otherwise badly
smashed and damaged.
