HUERTA'S METHODS OF RECRUITING.
NOW that a war with Mexico seems a certainty, the
character of the Mexican army and the manner in
which it is recruited are matters of interest m this
country. Correspondents at Mexico City tell of Dic
tator Huerta's methods for keeping up the strength of his
military forces, some of which are as follows: t
Three months ago the national agricultural school, in
the suburbs of the capital, was a quiet, easy going institu
tion with its thousand students, gathered from the farms
all over the land, paying attention to nothing else than
agriculture. Today it looks like a barracks. The profes
sors have been converted into captains, majors and lieu
tenants, and they wear military unitforms in the class
rooms. The students have all been put into soldiers uni
forms and have been supplied with rifles, which they are
forced to use in pratcice. Life in the dormitories has been
put on a military basis and day and night the big school
farm is patrolled by farmer boy sentinels.
The boys in the night schools, business colleges and even
private schools are being drilled by orders of the "presi
dent." Not a few of the professors in those schools have
resigned their positions rather than become officers in the
army. The professors who remain may often be seen in
the boulevards of the capital drilling, under the instruc
tion of a real army instructor,' their boy students. Little
chaps as tender in years as 10 may be seen in these groups
'learning how to carry their rifles and how to maneuver
at the orders of a professor captain.
The law students have been formed into a brigade of
their own. Two or three of the leading law instructors
' in Mexico have resigned their positions because they felt
they had been, humiliated by the demand that they be
come a part of the Mexican army.
- The medical students medical students are alike the
'world over were too much even for Huerta. At a time
when no one in the capital dared to raise his voice against
. Huerta these medical students astuonded the government
: and the populace my making a demonstration against the
removal of the head of the national school by Huerta, and
the substitution of a military-'head. This demonstration
occured on a visiting day when several members of
" Huerta's cabinet were present. '
The police were called and the doors of the school were
closed. Huerta, who usually knows what action to take
against the slightest sign of "opposition to his plans, was
puzzled in this case. He hesitated to order the execution
of the ringleaders; for the same reason, he hesitated to
cause their arrest on the grounds of treason. Finally, he
solved the whole thing by closing the school' for two
months. Whereupon the irrespressible medical students
held another demonstration of joy because "school was
out." If President Wilson were to order that all the clerks
and secretaries in the postoffiee department, for instance,
be formed into a military company and were to be drilled
he would cause similar consternation to that which fol
lowed such an order by Huerta the other day. Huerta's
order extended to every government office in the capital
and every day on some of the many drill grounds around
the capital some company of w hite-handeu, tender-looted
'young clerks may be seen hiking or swinging guns in the
hot sun.
Harry Thaw has accumulated the finest and probably
the largest collection of writs of mandamus, habeas cor
pus, and assortment of court orders ever gotten together
by a private citizen. They have cost him a fortune,
and, while they have done everything to him, except some
thing he paid for, he is still behind the bars. The attor
neys who have had a chance at his case have so conducted
it as to make their acts the prideof the profession, for
never has he been given the least chance to get out of the
clutches of the law and the lawyers. When his money
gives out he will get something, and that will probably be
his liberty.

ance it may be. However, it
quarrel gets to- be of such a
decent citizen cannot refuse
He can not sit idly by and
neighbor, and this is the position the united States now
finds itself in toward Mexico. It is a family row, but we
cannot in common decency permit it to continue indefinitely.
There is no use to talk now about what ought to have
been done in the Mexican affair. We can thresh that
out later. It is a condition, not a theory, that now con
fronts us, and the hundred million Americans are a unit
behind the administration in seeing that the American
flag is respected and American lives protected. There is
no difference of opinion along that line.
The candidate is up against it in trying to get recogni
tion from his constituency. Thus does Huerta butt in and
cause trouble to the great army of patriots. The worst
part of it is that Huerta put the war off so long that none
of the candidates had a chance to get a declaration of
war in his platform. .TCTfliWaTltYfill
Now the recalled mayor of Tacoma has been re-elected
to that office. This proves that either the people or the
mayor have changed their minds. It may also have dem
onstrated that "it is better to bear the ills we have than fly
to those we know not of."
A film illustrating a play called "The World, the Flesh
and the Devil" has been placed under the ban by the Brit
ish censors. Strangely enough they did not object to the
World or the Devil but drew the line on the Flesh.
There should be no trouble in raising a troop of cav
alry at Pendleton and still leave enough rough riders to
carry on the "Round Up" this fall.
So far there has been only one report from the Oregon
National Guard wherever stationed and that is "Ready!"

call them, but you will be enthusiastic
about this splendid stomach prepara
tion, too, if you ever take it for indi

dyspepsia, or any stomach misery.

How Many Soaps Can You
Name Offhand?
This is not a new Btory, but it is worth repeating.
A friend went to a large soap manufacturer and said to him: "See
hore, yon aro spending a fortune in advertising. Why do you waste
your money?"
"How many soaps can you nsfrief" asked the soap manufacturer.
The friend studied and named six all advertised brands.
"That's the answer," replied the soap manufacturer. Out of the
hundreds of soaps made, you can name only six, and mine beads the
list.
"I CAN'T AFFORD NOT TO ADVERTISE.' '
That soap manufacturer was a large user of space in the daily
newspapers. Ho died the other day leaving an immense fortune, and
