Those who love to read about fighting ought not to neglect these South Ameriean revolutions. The idea that these armies battling in obseurity for obscure causes are so many mobs that march out to run from each other is far, far from the truth. The people of Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Nicaragua are a mountain people. They have all the savage courage of moun- taineers everywhere and all their tenacity of principle and all their passion for the utmost freedom. The fighting have gained power and are trying to use it for oppression and those who refuse to be op- And as the winning side always uses victory to crush the ¢ A WARLIKE + EOPLE AND ¢THE BLOOnIEST ¢ ¢ WARS oF NcTIMES. ¢ pressed. beaten side, the battle is rarely suspended. For two years they have been fighting in Colombia. armed with the best modern guns. ‘The soldiers stand up and shoot They are at-each other at short range, and when the ammunition is all shot away close in with long, murderous knives. After a battle a South American battlefield looks like a slaugh- ter pen. Teddy Roosevelt—unleea it is true, as rumored, that he has had his fangs drawn and no longer clamors for gore and glory— would revel in a South American war. The stay-at-homes who wish concessions in those countries are very anxious to have American soldiers sent to take part in the wars. They say it is our “duty” to pacify these republies, But because of the Boer object-lesson against trying to rob beehives for the honey, the stay-at-homes are not making much headway. If they must have Qeeccceccee ; Ose WHo { THosE $ ‘ ’ ’ : ’ ° Qeccccccccccs: honey let them go and get it themselves, instead of sending some one to take all the stings and bring them all the honey.
