 Dispatches quote Democratic Senators saying that the treaty signed by the United States Great Britain, France and Japan will be ratified. If so it will that this minority consisting of about 20 per cent of the Senator's will not be able to die tate the foreign policy of the Government now--or perhaps murder the foreign policy would be the better way to put it-as it did on the previous occasion.

MEXICO AND MEXICANS.

Appropos of series of articles recently publisht in The Empire dealing with Mexico and the Mexican making room for excerpts from very compr hensive and convincing article written by Joseph Eufey, the Pittsburgh oil operator, and published the New York World. Mr. Guffey spent tha five months in Mexico, traversing the country fro the Rio Grande to Yucatan and crossing from {, Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean several times different parts of the country. Mr. Gufeys obsery tons and conclusions coincide in remarkable degr with those of Mrs Troys articles in The Empi We quote.
 Mexico under President Alvaro Obregon is pro-American, law and order country. It has become politically stable; peace prevails; and a. great commercial development is under way. There is question but that Mexico. today politically in better shape than it has been for many years and it is better organ ized politically than many other countries whose political stability is taken for granted. very strong administration has into power by the ballot box, and gives conclusive evidence of being able to dominate the country and serve out its term. Commercially there is comparison at all between Mexico of 1921 and the Mexico of other days. Those old landmarks have been left in the remote distance. From any angle that you want to take, Mexico is getting along very well.
 As you journey comfortably through Mex ico today. you note haciendas everywhere and the farms of Mexico enormous-in full production, the station platforms piled high with products of the soil and mines. all the branch lines from the main routes op- erating to capacity. and the people looking we'll fed and prospering.
 An amazing influx of foreigners is per haps enc of the most significant signs of healthful condition of things in Mexico. All the hotels in Mexico City, Pueblo and . Guadalajara full of them, and, as you go about the country you have the company of half dozen different nationlities in your Pullman, Americans predominating easily.
