A HARVEST OP WILSON'S SOWING Wilson's two years of "watchful waiting" in Mexico hare brought Just what such a policy could be expected to bring. His wabbling diplomacy, touching all sides of all questions and without an effective stand upon any Issue, Is now bringing its natural har vest, distrust and pillage and death. First, the authorities at Washington alienated Carranza and his follow ing by flirting with Villa, making of Carranza a scapegoat and assisting the ibandlt chieftain In his marauding warfare by the moral support of a great nation, arriving almost at the point where Villa was recognised. Then, turning upon Villa when Car ranza was gaining an 'advantage at arms, the latter was "recognized" and Villa was outlawed, as both he and Carranza should have been years before. The consequence is that the United States of America, greatest nation upon the face of the earth, now has no standing whatever in the southland, and the gringo is the hated of all Mexicans. "Watchful waiting" has brought nothing but ridicule to this country. Villa orders the slaughter of Americans. Car ranza may not give official approval to the slaughter, but Villa is doing just what he would have done had he dared. But Wilson may be able to stave trouble off long enough to wish the Mexican question upon the republican administration that will follow in 1917. Hoqutam, Wash., Jan. 13.

As to old friends, they are like old shoes, an abiding comfort and a great solace. If they have not been tried in extremity they have been tested by time and its mutations, and by the wear of years. There is little more beautiful in human experience than long-sustained friendships between women grown far Into the years, for example, and yet who have main tained their communion of dreams and confidences unbroken and un spoiled. There is little more refresh ing to contemplate than friendships between middle-aged or old men that have existed in strength and har mony from boyhood days. Other friendships have these folks of the passing generation, some of them true, some of them tried, but none of them as richly regarded and high ly treasured as tbe old ones. For necessarily there are many things that occur in a lifetime which par or disturb us, which give a different turn to our tastes and disposition, which Introduce changing elements and predilections Into the problems of the day and times of the -present and future can never be the same as In the long ago. Yet the old friends remain, possibly not in the same neighborhood or comunity, nor in the same part of the country, ' But they are ever within the boundaries of our spiritual vlBlon and they are en shrined in the sanctuary of the heart Without them we should be lonesome In a crowd, and sometimes should feel as if we. had been abandoned, though surrounded by our own house hold and loved ones. Old friends, in brief, have a niche all tbelr own, Portland. Jan. 12.
