watchful waiting the people have re-
mained calm, cool and collected. At
no time and at no place, not even in
the most dangerous places on the
threatened border, have the people be-

They pave been alert and determined
all along, but have never "gout! wild."

would be war. and such as Mexico has
never, in all her history, experienced.
They knew all along as they know
now that it must be a quick and con-

thing is done. War is war with thia
patient, brave and courageous people,
who never invite it, but who. when
once they are in it are in it to stay
and—win! If we are going to war
