These questions will occur to the returning Mexican sooner or later, if they have not already done so.

And then what? The most natural thing in the world for the northern Mexican states to do is to set themselves free from an unsatisfactory government, and then knock at the door at Washington, just as Texas did. Under the Stars and Stripes, the evils that have always cursed Mexico could not exist. A degree of justice would immediately be established that has never been known on the other side of the Rio Grande. The "grandees" would not be quite so grand; and the common man would be less common and of greater importance. Settlement there by those accustomed toliveunderthe Stars Miltonvale friends ol the T.

With a population so composed, will the government there ever be successful? There are two kinds of successful governments; One based upon justice to all classes and to all individuals, in which there is hearty accord concerning the laws and-the manner of making them, and both fairness and tolerance concerning officials.

The other consists of a ruling class so powerful as to be able to maintain a semblance of contentment on the part of the masses by forced The Rio Grande divides not only two countries, but two distinct peoples and two civilizations.

But the time would come sometime in the future for another extension of civilized territory, possibly in the same way The ruling classes in Mexico have in their power to stop the war and establish peace, contentment and prosperity. But they do not know how. They want to "pacify" by military force, and exploit the masses in the most cruel and unjust ways, for -the benefit of the great land owners who enjoy special privileges with only nominal, if any, taxation. Education of and justice to the masses do not enter their plans. They will cling to their antiquated methods to their own destruction.

They cannot always hold back ihe tide of civilization. Anditis a pity that they cannot learn. They must loose in the end. It is always so with the ignorant and the stubborn. The ways in which civilization spreads her -light and dominion ire many and various; sometimes bv peaceful methods, sometimes by war.

Sometimes its spread strengthens national unnity, some times pieces must be broken off from a nation that cannot march with the procession. The time has come when a stable government must really rest upon the willing ensent and the real contentment of the governed. In fact, the time has come when the governing power must rest wit'u the governed the masses. Particularly is this true when the next-door neighbor, separated only by a shallow stream, is the nation, the United States of America. It is beyond belief that the people of Mexico, even i ho they be "Indians" mostly, shall remain content under the kind of government that they suffer under, with the example they have just across the Rio Grande.

It is natural that the northern tier should rebel. And it is natural that the northern tier should break away, if necessary, and seek the blessings that are enjoyed under the Stars and Stripes.
