Intervention In Mexica The latest exploit of General Ville makes it more than ever imparative that the United States must definitely abandon the policy of sitting patiently on the fence while the M xicanos carve out their national destiny and incision". tally eliminate each other. After thren years of strife which have worked more evil to Mexico than it has ever known and seen so much bloodshed everyone recog- nises that at last peace must be secured and the only way ti secure this it seems is by armed intervention on the part of the United States supported by the Powers. The cold-blooded murder" of a wealthy Scottish rancher has brought the crisis to a head. General Villa, the rebel leader whom the United States has be- friended in his operations against the irreconcilable President. Huerta, bas been guilty of an unpardonable crime. Americans
and
others on the spot are obviously at one in accusing the CARRY,
State Department at Washington of persistently suppressing the TRANSPORT, real foots of the situation in or der to bolster up a mistaken policy which is nothing short of ruinous to all foreign interests in Mexico.
