WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?
A few years ago the United States astonished the world
by precipitating a war with Spain in order to insure
ihn Uiw.,.,Cq nf fiin ( 'nlum iiiHiirL'pnts in their battle for free
dom from the Spanish yoke. The oppression 0,1 the nail
breed Cuban was more than sentimental tree. America
could stand, so we marshalled our forces, attacked the
haughty but inoffensive Spaniard in two hemispheres,
stole, by power of might, his territory, and In the sacred
name of liberty replaced Spanish rulei-s with American
governors.
Todav. however, we see me ihltiuhu iumy ami 'j
-
being gathered together with the announced intention ot
putting an end to rebellion in Mexico against the arbitrary
-ruin nf TiiiiK. Yftf. tha hiHiuFC2its of Mexico arc fighting for
freedom just as the Cubans fought a few years itgo against
Spain and the rule of Diaz, military despot, is probably
every bit as arbitrary and tyrannical as that of Spain's
ever was.
Those who could not see how the United States was
justified even in the name of liberty in making vvar upon
a friendly nation because a coiony was in reuumuu, mm
a still harder puzzle to solye in discovering a reason why
this siunntTnitod States this time interferes in behalf of the
tyrant arid oppressor, and ward upon those struggling
for liberty.
Citizens, of the United .States are plainly puzzled. There
must be a reason for all this expensive panoply of war be
sides that vouchsafed by President; Taft. What business
of ours is it who wins in Mexico? Why should we interfere
in what does not concern usl As a foreign power, it is
not part of our duty to participate in the quarrels that
the people of Latin America amuse themselves with.
It is true that we must protect Mexico from foreign ag
gression and therefore must protect foreigners in Mexico.
But so far, none of these interests are in jeopardy and
there is not the slightest danger of foreign aggression.
'Neither arc American in! crests endangered, nor has the
Diaz administration as yet proven itself inadequate to
suppress the insurgents.
Probably the real reason lor tiie garnering oijouccs s

PROMISED
Sunset Magazine to Make Specialty
of Medford District In August Sun
setGreat Increase in Circulation
Will Be Provided to Meet Demand.
The Rogue River Vnlley is to he
given special recognition in the June
issue of the Sunset magazine. Its
great resources and matchless scen
ery are to bo illustrated in four col
ors, and supported by an article pre
pared by Mr. Walter V. Woehlkc, one
of Amoriea's foremost publicity writt
en, who will shortly visit Medforo
for tho purpose of gathering data foi
it. Mr. Woehlkc has u National re
putation, and has contributed iimnj
articles of great merit to the Satur
day Evening Post and other Easten
magazines. The four color illustrat
ed miction of Sunset magazine is i
new departure established foil)
mouths ago, the first article entitled
"The Last Call of the West" apnar
ing in the November issue. This w.i
also written by Mr. Woehlkc and
Medford is signally fortunate in be
ing selected in this way. The colore
write ups represent the highest nr
in modern magazine publicity work
and Medford is the first city in tin
United Slntes, outside of San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles, to get thi
class of notice. Tho other numberi
of Sunset described various Califor
nia districts in n collective mnnu.ii'
Mr. Mallboouf has been in corrcs
poudence with tho Sunset magazim
people for several months in rognu
to tho matters, and received th
cheering news yesterday that hi
hopes would ho realized in the Jinx
magazine.
that the death of Diaz, now admittedly near, will be the
signal for a' popular uprising that will endanger the life
of every foreigner as well as the safety of every investment
-made bv foreigners in Mexico. Sll6uld such tin outbreak
fallowed by
by ioreurnci
occur, it will mean an jVmerican occupation
annexation. Either this or European invasion.
: If we believe what is told us, Mexico roally ought to
bo a part of the United States. Any kind of a change it
is said would bo an improvement for the Mexicans them
selves. They could not be worse off than left to them
selves, for th'e h'alf breed Spanish-Indian has never de
veloped a capacity for self government-and the only
stable government" Mexico has ever known has been the
ruthless military tyranny of a mercenary despot.
Mexico feels' she has been exploited under Diaz but
wait until Morgan & Co., get a whack at her under tho
stars and stripes then she will fully realize tho benefits
ot benevolent assimilation. And then perhaps, we will all
Realize what the mobilization of military forces tit the
threshold of Mexico really means.

The cases on tho calendar are

ion of the grand jury on n charge
if larceny from a building, nnd com
nitled fi'oinm Ashland; nnd Bert
Cummings, charged with lurccny.
Tho case of William Ellison Me-
Guffic, held by the justice court in
Ashland for, obtaining money under
false pretenses will in nil probability
bo scratched fro inlhe calendar, th
prisonor having been turned over to
the authorities of San Jose, Cal., by
the local officers to answer to a
charge of larceny in tho California
city giving the authorities there prior
claim on him. His offense hero con
sisted of pnssing checks drawn on
a mythical bnnk nccotint. Ho was
wanted in the south for the alleged
theft of a quantity of gold and plat
inum from the office of a chemist in
which he was employed.
The case ngainst Bert Cummings,
will probnbly result in tho paroling
of the youthful prisoner. His crimo
is bcliovcd by tho authorities to have
been the result of a sudden impulse
and as his former employers in tho
city here will allow the boy to re
turn to work, it is believed that tho
court will cither allow a suspended
sentence or place tho prisoner under
bonds. O
