If Carranza has any sense left he will do all in his power to prevent their becoming more eo. For every ‘American cavalryman killed Uncle Sam’s riders are likely to take heavy toll from the slayers, But once more, what is Carranza’s game? What can ho gain by an official tone of surlinees toward Americans which encourages Mex- icans, army or people, to turn their guns on the pursuers of Villa? Carranza was supposed as for » wish for nothing so mucl {Villaloss and united Mexico. He now has the best chance he has! ever had to run down his bandit cnemy—with co Yet he halts midway to antagonize his helper It begins to ecem incredible that Carranza’s zeal for his country’s welfare can be what this nation has assumed it to be. Either we misinterpreted his motives or he has changed them. Carranza as a stiff-neck He would even be entitled to indulgence. But a Carranza backed by secret and powerful forces outside his nation, a Carranza playing Ger- many’s game, which happens to be also the game of various interests | in this country which see profit in a conquest of Mexico, a Carranza! professing to be jealous of his country’s honor, who could nevertheless be induced to risk that honor to involve and embarrass the Govern- ment of the United States—that Carranza would be a differant propo-} sition, No further passing of exhibits im the Sussex ease, Wasli- ington wil gew sum up. “THE SPIRIT OF 1860!” 6c JHE Spirit of 1860 must guide the nation,” says the Colonel. | Well, just what was the “Spirit of 1860?” If history and the newspapers of the time are correct, it was a very dewdling, temporizing Spirit, that allowed arsenals and their contents to be seized, Fort Sumter to be beleaguered and the entire North to be affronted by the “fire-caters,” while the editor of the Tribune, which now echoes the Colonel’s bleats, was imploring the country to “let the erring sisters depart in peace.” There was no realization of what was to come and no preparation of aps cort. Indeed, after Sumter had been fired upon—not in 1860, wut in 1861—the methods taken to meet the emergency were ridicu- Jous in view of what was to follow. It took from May to August to get the first New York cavalry regiment to Washington, and then the command had to be made up in part By Pennsylvania, while a Colonel Wes brought on from Michigan! The regiment lay around in New York practically in pawn, supported by private funds or credit, and wee finally rescued by a public spirited citizen who went to Wash- ington and begged $3,000 from Mr. Lincoln's Secretary of War! This ie but one example out of many. * — Spirit of 1860! Flub-dub! ——-4-—___. “Morgan's son has sold for $12,000,000 treasures that cost his father $50,000,000."—News item.
