WHY MEXICO WAIT#.

People this far from the Rl'o Grande "fonder why the people of Mexico do 3iot take their affairs into their hands l^-^and bring about peace, or invite American intervention to do the Job., An

Associated Press correspondent Had a significant dispatch in the Tribute a few days ago. He said: "If the better classes of Mexicans jJid not believe the United States intended to absorb their county, ttyey ,|vould .beg for Instant intervention." "S'he most powerful secret forces nave been at work constantly

tar

jpears, not only In Mexico but throughput all South and Central America, there is no. belief firmly in, the mttida of the people, there -is no doubt ancl fhe work has ^en roost thoroughly ac domplished."

It Is a situation that has ^trpuojeij tnany Americans watchful of developnftents^lwBlow the Jlio Grande.. But, ah-,-less effort^ raade:by the administration In the past .two years have failed,, ?tme progress ha« been mad$ toW-ar-a^de-atroyinif this- misconception.'

No American needs be told of the utter nonsense' of the suggestion that this country desires t# absorb Mexico or to take one inch of her territory. If this repiiblfc ipforced by circumstances to lnterv£ni& ^to restore order the task ppvill be undertaken purely in the spirit of philanthropy, without hidden purpose or, mental reservation.

commissions by the different states. Now there has come a sense of security to such enterprises from fair legislation and the sentiment is emphatically reversed.

The interstate commerce commission has decided that the revenues of the leading express companies of the country are inadequate. Former orders Have been modified so as to provide additional income.

The report of the commission repeals that the net operating revenues of the four big companies have decreased- to a deficit of considerable #ize while in the same period there has beep a substantial increase In operating expenses. The modified orders, it isi^estimated \vlll enable the express companies tl "increase their gross revenues, te an. amount eomewhat un- ,.•» -r der 4 per cent/'

The action of the commission is a clear evidence of its purpose to be {aijr?.r'*&tv is demohitration of-.the fact Xb'ii. the carrier, aa .well as the shipper, 'can obtain telief through the proper governmental agencies if the cause is just.

OUT IN THE OPEN.

Just the other day, perhaps, you flew: along a- country ro£d in & swift moving automobile. The air was clear and fine and the hills green and good, but after all you were getting the country from a safe vantage ground of luxury—a step removed from the thing ltSelf.

You saw it, but it wasn't yours. It was just a big beautiful moving picture.

To be sure, we are mightily, indebted to these, swift .waving motor cars, both for pleasure gayi. for utility, hut we are ftpt to let* them cheat us of large slices of, the actual. Someone puts the idea clearly, when he say*.: "Walking is not merely moving two ligs rhythmically bver certain intervals of grouhd. It is the primal and .Uje only way to know the world, the deliberate entering into fen inheritance whose parts are wind and weather, sky and prospect, men and animals, and .all vital enjpyment."

So, it dbes' not require any intense optimism to be thankful that you are one of these still addicted to "Shank's pony."

THE WAR OF THE SPADE.

General French, who is responsible for the destinies of Britain on the western battlefield, Is quoted as saying that "The war eventually is going to the best diggers."

It is for„mil{tary, ,njeo= to, .say what p&ely technical leasoss-^tche first year of war has taught us, hut a few saUent ftcts stand but tito plRinfir "that etven the lay mirid can grasp them. First, artillery has increased enormously in importance, while cavalry has declined, not, perhaps, in ratio, but still markedly. The pick and Spade have assumed a prominence tfiat would have been thought impossible, twelve months ago. The facility with which soldiers under fire burrow into the ground has caused a* decline^^ in' the^^ valile of shvapnel and a corresponding enhancement of high expiosSve shells with whjch the entrenchedl men may be blasted out of the e&Hh.

The dirigible has proven the biggest bluff of all the new inventions of war. The aeroplane, on the other hand, has accomplished even, more 'than was expected of it, ,ttd lt^ dev^lophient- ihaa only started. So far the aeroplane haW not proved a formidable iv'e&pdri of offense.

GIRLS FORM COUPS TO ST INTO MILITIA

Miss Vera*SnydcrJ of Walnut Grove, Has., Leads Feminist Move-, ment.

WICHITA, Kas., Aug. 30.—Kajisaa girls are trying to get into the state militia. They want to reform it and bring it up to a standard the state can be proud of.

During the last five years the Kancas national guard has had a rough experience. Membership has slumped considerably, and companies in many of the larger towns have disbanded from lack of interest. Knowing these facts, twenty-four Walnut Grove girls, under the leadership of Miss Vera Snyder, have .formed a cadet corps, with the idea of later securing the O. K. of the United States war department, leaking theip officially p, part of the state militia.

The company is the first of its kind in. Kansas, but it .won't be, the last. Walniit Grove girts declare they are going to start a state-wide campaign to have similar corps started in other tqewns.1 Their Idea'is a fejplnine militia similar to* the regiment Being formed 6y women in France to serjve behind the lines and on guard duty In time of war-

At present the work of the* company will be a happy mixture of war and peace. Drilling anfl,-crocheting will alternate regularly^ Darning and mending will be mixed up with target practice and military drill. Along with handling a'rifle the girls will be instructed in how to prepare a comfortable camp out of doors. Hikes will be common. Lunches will be carried in knapsacks fastened on the fair soldiers' backs. Discipline will be strict and tired "feet will be,no-excuse for deserting the ranks to seek a ehady hook under a .tree.

TJiere Will be uniforms. They will be of khaki, cut on the latest military lines. Trousers? The girls decline to say a word about them. All they will admit is tha,t" there, will be uniforms), btit "whether" skirts will be Included or not remains a mystery. It is thought trousers similar to men's riding breeches will be the style chosen.

Every girl who has enlisted in the corps is a member of the Bethel Presbyterian church. However, the company is not limited, and any young Woman willing to abide by the rules established can be admitted. -Until the Uniforms are secured meetings will be limited to informal affairs at trie homes of various members. Elementary-les-sons in needlecraft will be given. Later, details of the drill book will be mastered. During the .sum^ner much, attention, It Is said, wiM 'ne given to perfecting the girls In marching and in taking long hikes into the country.

PHAGES A2JD SALARIES.

Better be a street cleaner In New •fcfcrjc City than a small city high stjhobL/ t#tcfher or a clergyman.. That^lji^^oay tHe-standpoint of waijes and salary."" (?btham experts haV«P Voided 'that $*840 a year ,is th? lowest income -on which a workman's family of 'five peOjile can maintain a deoent standard ti( living in New York City." The. flgrures are based on a study of the city's street sweepers. .,

Npw, street sleeping la neither skilled nor an arduous occupation. In most cities the street-cleaning jobs are given to men considered unable to make a living In other lines of- work. It's interesting to learn, therefore, that a street sweeper in the^metropolls deserves a' couple of hundred dollars a year more than the average earnings 'of American workmen throughout the country. It seems to follow that most American workpaen are pa^d less than tiiey need for "a decent living."
