Has “Watchful Waittna” - Exhausted the Nation’s Patience ? I The temper of the American people which has been sorely tried by the continuous indignities and murders in Mexico has risen to white heat at the latest outrage resulting in the slaughter of nearly a score of peaceful and unarmed American citizens by Mexican bandits at Santa Ysabel on January 10th. In the United States Senate stormy speeches attacking the President’s policy in Mexico have been uttered by Senators who have not heretofore been noted for belligerent utterances. Newspapers throughout the country, both Republican and Democratic, have made an emphatic demand for the safety of Americans in Mexico,even at the price of armed intervention. What Do the People Want? In THE LITERARY DIGEST for January 22d the leading article gives a complete survey of the Mexican situation and presents the gist of public opinion from every angle as printed in the newspaper press. At no time since the troubles in Mexico began has the outlook, as it concerns the American people, assumed so grave a character as at the present time. Thoughtful Americans, whatever their politics, will read this number of “The Digest” carefully,because from it they will secure an unbiased view of public feeling. Other articles of great interest in this number are as follows: The Progressive Prodigal’s Return Weary of the Husks, As Some Picture It, the Progressive Prodigal Has Arisen and Announced His Intention to Return to His Father, But There Is No Humility in His Action —No, Indeed!
