Our President. —AColliers for June 65.) The most impressive thing in the United States during the last ' few weeks has been the weight and power of our public opinion gathering to back the president in his conduct of the nation’s foreign affairs. Without any sensation or noise, ' the whole minnd of our people has set into resolution. The protests of those who are not of us tin this matter are like the sqeuaks ofsome fleld mouse sounding across a glacier. There have been many opinions held in -this country regarding the war and much free expression of those opinién, but now that diversity: of feeling is oveér and done with. The situation concerns: not. only our rights, but also the part Wwe hope the United States is to play in establishing justice as the basis for. conducting relations between na- tions and in enlarging freedom for mankind. When the sober depths of realization are sounded, that is what our country means to us, and it has been given to very few men to ex- press the soul of a nation's thought with the clearness and force and truth that have made Wilson's recent mes- sages a page in history. The future is not predictable, but it is certain now that in an important crisis the president has behind him that ulti- mate force of free government, the known will of the nation. Mexico Put on Notice. (New York Herald.) ‘Will Villa, Carranza, Zapata, Obre- gon and the lesser lights of revolution be wise enough to heed the warning 8o solemnly given by the president ot the United States yesterday- There is not one of these military leaders who does not prate of his patriotism, | proclaim from the housetops his love for his country. Each has his plat- form promising in' high sounding phrases that the ‘“dear people” shall have constitutionalism and liberty— yet each is striving to outdo the others in taking from theése people the little they have. To ‘this there now must come an end. President Wilson has notified ‘these precious gentlemen, each and all, that their professions of patriotism are to be put to the test. They are given op- portunity to get together “for the re- Hef and redemption of their prostrate country,” and 8t the sameé time are werned that unless they do this, and within a very ehort time, the Unitea | Btates will take Mexico in hand. | 'The policy to be followed is made sufficiently clear.

And the United States wil) sec to it that a man, or group of men, {8 found. Not once but many times the lead- ers of the warring factions in Mexico have asserted that in the event ot American intervention they would ‘“‘unite against the invader.” If they can get together one time they can get together ‘another. They are now furnished an incentive that should be as compelling as actual armed intervention, for it must be clear to them that the “active moral support” by which the president pro- poses to bring about order in Mexico will take whatever form may be necessary to accoplish the desired re- sult. Shirt Sleeve Diplomats. (New Haven Union.)’ ‘‘More than 20 years ago,” says the ‘Welt an Montag, “American diplomats won for themselves the title of shirt- sleeve diplomats. Consequently ons judges the tone and contents of the American note by standards different from: that custemary in Europe.” But Germany asked all these shirt sleevé diplomats to represent her in the capitals of countries with avhich she is at war. All the other warring countries have asked the United States embassy to flpr’nnt them at Berlin, i o) i “SATURD At Sunt Department Extraordinary Values, Among Which Are the Following: Wise, Smith & Company . ‘ $7.98 Tweed Sport Coats at $4.75 These coats of pretty gray mixed tweed are made in a Smart semi-raglan model with patch pockets and collar that can be buttoned to the neck® Something new in value giving for Saturday only &t «..cevee a0 Y $4.75 SPRING AND SUMMER COATS AT $6.75 One reel of cpats were priced $8.98 and $9.08, madé of serge, poplin, checked materials For Saturday only at and mixtures. $6.75 SPRING AND SUMMER COATS AT $71.75 One reel of smart coats in all the new spring colors, made i1 the season’s new materials, were priced $10.98 and $11.98, For Saturday omnly at ...

(South Norwalk Sentineh) The German foreign office prghnbly realizes by this time that the Lusitan- ia was no more a “warship” than the Titanic was. It is probably convinced that there was no cannon aboard, and tht the ship was not a transport car- rying arm Canadian troops. We hope it realizes that this government had not permitted infringement of neu- trality in any respect whatever in its relations with the Lusitania; that not even the American law against pas- senger ships carrying “explosives” was broken, because we have néver classed rifle cartridges as. explosives, | and such goods have always been car- ried by ocean liners. If the Geérman government really believed these misrepresentations, Germany has been sadly betrayed by blunders of confidential agents and the credulity of her high officials. Intervention in Mexico, (New York World.) The president’s statement relative to the Mexican situation is an official proclamation announcing the failure of the resolution. Revolution has failed not because brave men have been spar- ing of blood and treasure but because leadership has been ambitious, jealous and probably corrupt. In the forecasts of Mr. Wilson's change of policy it was said that his new appeal would be to the people. He has not appealed to the people. He addresses his admonitions to the chiefs of the warring partisans. In lan- guage that is restrained but the mean- ing of which cannot be mistaken, he tells them that if they do not speed. ily settle their differences and come to the rescue of a population reduced to beggary he will act, and act vigor- ously. Mexico is starving, without a gov- ernment,” are the words that describe a tragic situation. In these circum- stances, “it bécomes the duty of the United States to lehd its active moral support to some man or group of men * * * who will set up a government at Mexico City which the great powers | of the world can recognize.” If the factionists “cannot accommodate their differences and unite for this great purpose within a very short time,” the ! president will be ‘“‘constrained to de- cide what means should be émployed by the United States in order to help Mexico save her!elf and serve her peo- ple.” This is due no!lce not only of “‘ac- tive moral support” for honest men if cannot be fourfd. As in Cuba, the object of intervention will bé the es. tablishment of free governmeént and the maintenance of peace. To that great example the presidént may well refer as proof.of the rectitude of his purposes when he says that “the péo- ple and government of the United States want nothing in Mexico for themselves.” In the name of man- kind they demand ‘order and justice. Worthily inspired, the Mexican rev- olution has been unworthily led. Fought through to success, all has been imperilled by the folly and sel- fishness of a few. To save a just cause, to gather the fruits of a vic- tory for constitutionalism, to head off anarchy and a new tyranny, to act as good neighbors in béhalf of a people now committed to unavailing blood- shed, is a policy concerning which there will be few differences of opin- fon this side of the Rio Grande. Bread, Not Bullets, for Mexico, (Washington Post.) The gates of the United States should be shut tightly against the ship. | ment of arms to Mexico, and flung wile open for the shipment of food to th®:starving Mexicans. THe United States should give the Mexicans bread instead of bullets. The polity of aiding all Mexican factions to kill off the peaple of Mex- ico cannot be reversed too soon. This country cannot vindicate such a pel- icy. It is a travesty upon every ex- pression of sympathy, every effort to rescue Mexico, every movement to re- lieve the Mexicans from starvation. Shipments of foodstuffs intended for starving noncombatants have been seized by Carranza. This food has been handed over to military marau- ders who are robbing and killing Mex- icans and foreigners.” Thus the very offerings of charity have been made to serve the cause of murder, That must stop. Carranza, Villa, Zapata and all the other disturbers must keep their hands of these sup- plies, and must permit their quick transit to destination. If a warn. this country, Th professional revolutionists know their pation would be gone if Unitead should lend a help hand to the Mexican peaple know that their own people woéuld qulek vengeance upon them if opportunity arose, The chief ¢b; of the Unitéd States would be to. vent the Mexican people from turning in and slaughtering their murdersrs, vy - [ New Auto Law. . (Hartford Times.) Important to motorists and pedel trians alike. is the new automob law which went into effect yesterd It goes the Hartford ordinance better,” in that it compels all torists to bring their cars tora £ stop “not less than ten feet from rear” of any trolley car that have stopped to discharge or take passengers—providing the autos | going in the same direction as trolley. 1In few instances is the foot space allowed at the pr time; and ‘in erowded . street traf it sometimes will be difficult te it, and yét the law provides tha shall be given, and if this law enforced to the letter, the motop who gives but a nine-foot space be liable to arrest. The object of to give pedestrians, whether ing trolley cars or stepping frdl them every leeway for safety. ' is as it should I But in the forcement of this law it is clear that any splitting of hairs, any tendency to apply the law to- Jetter, instead of using some deki of common sense, will lead to less and expensive trouble. It be interesting to note, also, some of the motorists who fore have shown remarkable estimating three-inch or distances between the hubs of can be as accurate in estimath foot distances between the f their cars and the rears of th the law is ol bo W th ik cars, i { In some instanées this new ing is not sufficient to make them re- | spect this errand of humanity, they | should be blown to one side by Amer- | ican guns. i It is quite possible that at first the | Carranzas and Villas would attempt to hold up Red Cross supplies, in which : case we would see American-made | firearms turnéd against Americans en- | gaged on a merciful mission. That | is a contingency which was pointedi out by the Post and many other American newspapers months ago, | when thé government was urged to ! shut down upon the shipments of arms | i to Mexico. But the military r'hinfl!hu would not | last long if they should interfere Wwith the work of relief.
