THE HOWL If this country becomes involved in serious trouble with Mexico, there is one man in the United States ; who Bince the pnsBing of Winfield Scott, Znchnry Taylor 'and Old Sam Houston, Is pre-eminently the man to cope with the situation. That man is Theodore Boosevelt No .matter who likes or dislikes burdens and the heat of the day in the great conflict. ; "; It should be an inspiration tc read General Pershing's report todu; which tells of how the American sol dlers conduct themselves on the Pic. srdy front It says that the "enemy was completely expelled." That is what may bo expected f rorfi the" boya from thin side of the Atlantic all along the line where they may he engaged. If there were anything to the vaunted super-human capabilities qf any' nation in distinction from an other, that distinction would be on the side of the brave lads who un fighting fl just fight for freedom and humanity..:: Many, many more ore to go am' tlioy will keep on going until then; are enough to turn the tide against the common enemy.'. It Is a proud j privilege to be one of them. .Whej they come back victorious and there is no other outcome cither probable or possible the citiiens will be rcidy to welcome them home, just on they arc now glad to know that the great, issue to bo determined js in as gooi bands as those who havo been calle I and whp will receive the good liyet nnd the -God-speeds this penin-r.
