It s matt hich can and 1 through diplomatic u shows nevertheless that the disposition on the part of rertain Mexicans at least is not what it should be toward Americans. The Tampico affair cannot he re- garded as other than the result which might have been expoeted by the Mexicans who started it. They were entirely unjustified in the course which they pursued and they must re- alize if they =re giving any time to reflection that they received only what they Invited. There was no disposi- ton on the nart of the Americans to 30 into Tampico and yun Lhings, vio- late the laws or paint the town red, and it wag only when the Mexicans sought to interfere with the Ameri- cans in fhejr lawful duties that the trouble followed It is unfortunate that such a thing should occur. It is to be deplored at any time, but particularly so just now when every possible effort should be made by both countries to bring about A readjustment of the relations whieh would work to the advantage of .all concerned. Mexico cannot fail to have seen the Jight as the result of the part which this country has play- od in conhection with the great way, be made, for industries to multiply and increase and for stores to develop and expand, but it js quite necessary in this connection that tkey should realize that much depenis upon them in this respect. 2 Unless they = display the proper amount of civic pride, unless they take an Interest in the growth of a eommunity and the development ef its business, factories and stores by help- ing along the business enterprises which are waiting and eager to cater to their desires, it is mot to be ex- pected that thelr jdeals can he real- ized.

According to the meonthiy re- pert of the department of agriculture eyerything points to the largest crop that the ceuntry ever saw and it is estimated that the yield will amount 19 765,000,000 bushels if no serious set- back is encountered, and this means myich in view of the fact that it would be 80,000,000 bushels in excess of what had cver been ‘preyiously obtained rom win get a cook to sult him, he might try his own hamd at the jobh now that time is hanging on his hands.

Prince Maximilian of Baden, the last chancellor appointed by the kaiser. took into his cabinet Ebert and Scheidemann, the leaders of the majority socialists who have supported the war from the first, and Groeber and Erzberger, the leaders of the Catholic center, The socialists had before the war always opposed the government, while the Catholics kad been now with the government now with the socialists, as they saw fit in order to gain their nolitical ends.
