Xew York knows more about
the situation in Mexico than do
the Mexicans because the trouble
down there is of a financial na
ture. Therefore the following
editorial by the Xew York World
is of particular interest just now:
Both Sir Kdward Grey, the
British secretary of state for
foreign affairs, and Francis Dyke
Acland, the parliamentary un-der-secretary,
made it clear in
the house of commons yesterday
that no attempt will be made by
the Ijritish government to force
the hand of the United States in
Mexico because of the Benton
affair.
As Mr. Acland expressed it,
an attempt at intervention on
the part of Great Britain would HAIR SWITCHES made from

Old Time English Elections.
No complaint with regard to un
due limitation of polling time was
possible in the old parliamentary
days. The danger was that polling
might he prolonged for a fortnight
or a month. Drastic action to bring
the poll to a close once provoked a
riot in the Westminster division of
London. At the general election
that began on April 2.j, 171, the
two Westminster ministerial candi
dates wore on the fifth day of poll
ing well ahead, but an opposition
party of electors approaching the
hustings in great force, the diigh
bailiff (who favored the ministerial
ists) declared that he feared a riot
and closed the poll. The baffled
voters rioted and the military was
culled out. The high hailili' had
afterward to apologize on his knees
to the speaker and pay a heavy fine.
