Roosevelt breaks into print with a criticism of the president's Mexican policy. W1mt Our I'ncle asserting the ad 1s Lucky, m 1 n i s t r a t Ion should have rec ognized Huerta and that we became morally responsible for outrages com mitted against priests and nuns by the revolutionists. How can he make any such claims? Huerta was never a lawful president but a temporary usurper of author ity. He was President Madero's lead ing general and gained power by turning traitor and having Madero murdered. Huerta was never sanc tioned by the people of Mexico and had this country officially recogniied him as lawful president it would have been a crime against Justice. The Carranta-Villa revolution was Inspired by desire to drive the mur derous usurper from power and re establish constitutional government In Mexico. The war was accompanied by the usual horrors and Innocent people suffered as Is now true In Eu rope and as has been true of every war that has been waged. It is ridi culous for any one to blame the Uni ted States for those outrages simply because this country would not recog nize Huerta and thereby aid the pluto cratic side in the Mexican struggle. If sny particular element was to blame for the horrors of that war the blame most logically rests on those wo had Huerta betray and murder Madero, for that act started the blaze of revo lution. What the colonel has to say about Mexico would be of slight consequence nave for one thing. There seems to be sort of a general movement over the country to work up what might be termed a "war party." The most conspicuous agitators are William R. Hearst and Col. Itoosevelt- At a time when our obvious course is to keep wholly clear of the strife and work for our own interests and for peace thew men ngltate activities that can do no good and may lead to infinite harm. The colonel's talk about Mex ico gives us a line on what wc may expect If that element should gain the Kiddle. He would have had us em broiled head over heels In Mexico. In stead of a dozen killed we would have had thousands slain. Instead of out rages aialnst a few Americans in Mexico the life of every American In Mexico would have been jeopardized. Our troops would huve reached them' too late and the whole thing would have been a tragic blunder, the only people nuining being the millionaires having concessions there they wished ) r, .(,.(., I by t'lu le Si. in. If we had a "wur" president now Instead of n man who believes in J eaoe arid the rule of Justice, this country would become Involved In the Kuropean struggle. There are oppor tunities to get offended every day and If we had a "hair trigger" executive It would be a miracle If we escaped. One of the most fortunate things In the history of the United States Is the fact Col. Roosevelt la not president at this particular time "There can be no permanent In dustrial peace that Is not based on In dustrial Justice," said Iiloiiutrr In Secretary of Ijbor l-ahor Wars. Wilson to the conven tion of the American Federation of Labor; and the secre tary Is a trades union man. Answer ing the assertion that he has been guilty of partisanship In the conduct of his offlcce, he said: "If securing Justice to those who earn their living by the sweat of their face Is partisanship, then count me partisan on the side of the man that labors." Secretary Wilson says his depart ment" Is performing diplomatic func tions, as It should do. It is as much iu duty to handle labor disputes In a diplomatic manner, as it Is the duty of the state department to handle in ternational matters in a diplomatic manner. And the secretary says. "What we want In handling labor disputes is men who are experienced and level-headed and who understand the technicalities Involved. In carry ing out its work, the department takes men who are experienced and have the technical knowledge of the em ployees' side and also men who are experienced and have the knowledge) of the employer's side, and sends them out to perform their work." The Department of Labor was es tablished for & definite purpose to see that labor gets Justice. It was necessary because labor has never had Justice, either In this country or in any other. And It will never have Justice so long as some men are per mitted to monopolize the natural op portunities that labor must use In or der to produce wealth. The world Is petting away from the idea that labor is a commodity, or a part of the ma chinery of a plant. That idea Is ex pressed in the Clayton anti-trust law, which Secretary Wilson says Is "the greatest step taken by labor and for labor In the last two generations It Is fortunate for the country tha William B. Wilson Is the first Ameri can secretary of the Department or Labor. He is putting the department on a firm foundation. San Francisco Star.

This lot was bought at less than we could import them for and will be sold at the same proportionate ratio of reduction, enabling you to buy something different as a Xmas gift and a useful article and can be used in the home not, only as a useful article but an ornament as well. The stock consists of Fern Baskets, Trays, Fruit Baskets, Silverware Baskets, Flower Pots, Hanging Bas kets, and dozens of other useful kinds and priced 25c to $4.75 each.

It through the house by means of a rule, there Is no assurance that the president could force the bill through the senate In the brief time which v.ill be available. Opposition In the senate 'centers with those senators who are Intensely opposed to govern ment ownership as a general prin ciple. One of the hottest fights expected on the appropriation bills Is that on the armament question. The Euro pean war has, in their own minds, strengthened the arguments of both I he little navy men and the big nrtvy men. The big navy men declare that the suddenness of this war proves emphatically the necessity of being prepared. The little navy men point to the destruction of battleships and Tulsers by submarines, and say: 'Why build battleships until we find cut I' there Is any way to protect battleship from submarines all hlp3 constructed along present lines may, be made obsolete any day by some, development In this way." IToMrm In Scni;te. O-er In the senate the problem Is n-rro difficult, owing to the fact that there is no way of putting an end to thr debates on any question jo long ts any senator wants to slscus8 It. Possibilities in tnis direction are still fresh In the ilnds of senators from the successful filibuster of Sen otor Burton last session against the rivers and harbors bill. Besides the conservation measure already mentioned which have been passed by the house and are await ing action by the senate, there are number of other Important bills which have been acted upon by thi house but which have not passed tho senate. Among these the one which ts probably the most Important Is th Immigration bill. The point of tfif flculty about this bill Is the UUiacy Best, which the president Is said to be opposed to, while there is & wide difference of opinion In the senate.
