tiling to humanity and they quite
naturally conclude thnt we might as
well begin by ameliorating condi-
tions in our own buck yard.
If recognition of the Iluerlii gov-
ernment would Insure the re-ostab-llHhnieiit
of peace then ne might be
Justified In stifling our conscience to
IhlH end. Hut there Is no assurance
I hat It would. The mere fact that
the Mexican government would then
bo able to borrow money with great
er facility does not argue that it
would be any more sueccssf ul In put-
ting down rebellion In the future
than it has been 111 the pus. In fact
It would seem that the lack of money
has never played a consplcloug part
In Mexican politics of late thanks
to the vast oil properties.
As to intervention. It is rather a
disagreeable prospect but there Is
lltll'j doiibht that It would solve all
problems quickly and likewise ef-
fectively. A war conquest Is not to be
considered for a moment but an ef-
fort in behalf of humanity might not
he so unwise or so unjust ub many
good people seem Inclined to think.
Cuba Is a happy Illustration of what
can be accomplished In this way. The

THE MKXIOAK SITUATION-
No one at all familiar with the
Mexican situation doubts that a se-
rious crisis Is near at hand. Wero
evidence wanting on this point It has
been more than supplied In the notes
lately issued to tholr homo govern-
ments of the diplomats at Mexico
City. These notes wero Identical as
to form and context and show a un-
n nlmlty of sentiment and opinion
that it were not well to disregard.
Taken as a whole they form a Joint
suggestion from the d'ploinatic corps
that each of the great powers request
the United States to either recognize
the lluerta government or take audi
action as will bring about immediate
and permanent peace In the Mexican
republic.
It Is of little use to argue whether
the powers would be Justified In tnak
Jug such extraordinary demands of
the United States. It Is obvious that
their official representatives believe
they could. In Justice to her friendly
relations with (ho great powcrj the
United States is obligated to accord
this belief careful consideration.
Our attitude as established by the
Monroe Doctrine precludes any of tho
not Just that we deny the powers
tho right to protect their Interests
by force and refuse the protection
on our owu part. Either the Monroe
Doctrine should be abandoned or It
should he fulfilled to the letter.
Tho charges preferred against A-
mcrlrail officials by the Mexican gov
eminent anil the violent atitl. Ameri-
can demonstrations hy both press
and people are of little significance.
Hut the continued slaughter and le-
Ht met Ion of property on part of ap-
parently uncont roliaiiii) factions is
too serious to he viewed with Indif-
ference. The presentation of a plan for in-
ternational peace hy the present ad-
ministration can not hip convincing
the powers that this nation Is under
the Impression that It owes somo-
that of Mexico yet the Influence of
the United States has compelled n
fairly good government.
I'osslbly the foreign diplomats had
this In mind when addrcsln their
and if
so (hey have laid n very logical pre-
dicate for requesting American In-
terference. If the United States could
accomplish for Mexico what she has
already accomplished for Cuba she
would have not only erected a last-
ing memorial to her humanlturlan-
isni but would have created a situa-
tion which could not help Increasing
her material prosperity. Progress is
bought with a price and the price
must always and forever be paid by
t hose w ho lead.
Quick Death From Hnake Illte.
Paris Texas July 17. The 6-
yoar old daughter of Levi Mr Far-
land living at Itlrdsong Crossing of
tho Klamathi In Oklahoma was fa-
tally bitten hy a rattlesnake while
playing In the yard at the front gate.
She was bitten on the foot and died
within eight hours. The doctor stat-
ed that she was bitten on one of the
main arteries w hich was tho cause of
tho blto proving fatal so noon. The
snake measured seven feet and was
the largest known to have been kill-
ed In that locality.
Put One Eye Out. Suffered 30 Years
From Kkin Disease.
I suffered from a skin dlscaso for
3G years and about six months ago
It attacked ono of my eyes and put
it out. After It was too Inte I got
box of Hunt's Cure and began to
use It. and I must say that It. Is tho
best remedy I have used In 36 years
and I believe It will cure any skin
eruption.

We have many times heard It ar-
gued that chinch hugs would rather
travel south than go In an other di-
rection. It Is supposed that another
favorite direction with them Is east.
We have one frlec ; who gravely ar.
gues that chinch juks never travel
north; he says he has lived In Kan
sas a long time and has never seen
them crawling In that direction. We
have not lived In Kansas nearly so
long as he has but we have seen the
hugs traveling toward all the points
of the compus. Mall and llrcezo.

KIOTINO AT SKATLK.
Seattle Wash July 19. Quiet
prevails tonight in the streets where
sailors and marines of the Pacific
fleet last night wrecked tho head-
quarters of tho Industrial Workers
und Socialists and the police are con-
fident that no serious renewal of dis-
order will occur.
A number of sallora came ushore
also a large patrol prepared to round
up tho men If any disorders were re-
ported. Another quiet factor is that there
are no more places to sack. Mayor
Cotterlll issued an order closing sa.
loons and forbidding the circulation
of l tic- Scuttle Times until the edi-
tion was submitted for his approval.
J mine Humphries Isnucd a res-
training order permitting the publi-
cation of the newspaper and allow-
ing saloons to continue hiisincMs.

Value of Irrigation.
The people rf Scurry county have
rend with Interest Uro. Lowe's letter
In tin- Signal last week and while
e feel that he may possibly have his
country a bit over rated we know
llro Lce well enough to be cure
that be believes It Is like he tells It.
The proposition Is like this. The
people who had the laud to sell pro.
ceecled to prepare for irrigation and
(by the lime that was done It was
necessary to put a high price on the
land. Now let It be remembered that
Scurry county laud may be bought
for about one-elglith of what land
costs there and a few hundred dol
lars will pay for un Irrigation plant
unci then the expense stops. The Ir-
rigation fanner here doesn't have to
puy for water rights because lie has
his own plant. Probably he can't Ir-
rigate n hn r.irm. but then he doesn't
need a big farm. Me ran grow nil
he needs on a smaller area and why
should he want to cultivate 20 acres
and grow five bales of cotton when
by irrigation he may grow five bales
on five acres?
If one acre tf maize will produce
loc) bushels why kIiuI a man want
cultivate five acres to get the
tame ctiactlty of feed?
