Now that the American forces
are lairly started on the campaign
into Mexico and the hrst excite
ment over the unexpected call to
arms is over, we can again sit
back and devote some ol our time
to speculation as to results which
maj possibly follow the sudden
change in. our atiairs occasioned
by tne ill-consiuered *ct,un of
(Mr. Villa.
'io an appearaneves we are
launched upon an undertaking
wtnen, although apparently mild
enough in its present aspects, may
yet ueveiop conditions of serious
moment. An armed incursion
into the territory of a toreign
power under any circumstances
is something tnat may not be
looked upon as an altogether
traing auairs- It matters not il
such incursion be one wherein
exists no hostile intent toward
the nation whose privacy is thus
transgressed, the very fact that
the concrete evidences of the
power of one nation is thereby
haunted in the face of another, is
something very vital in its na
ture. Regardless of what may be
the animating reasons or the at
tendant conditions, the sending of
armed forces among an alien peo
pie is a matter of the gravest im
portance to both the nation at
tempting and the one sanctioning
sucli action. This is especially
true where the nations involved
in such undertaking possess no
ties of consanguinity or interest
to incline them toward a mutual
regard and understanding' . In
the case of two nation* so oppo
site in idcflts and inclinations as
are the United States and Mexico,
the presence of the armed forces
of the one upon the soil of the
other cannot fail to produce im
pressions inimical to both. Dan
ger is the very keynote of such
proximity and, unless both are in
clined to practice the utmost re
straint, discord is inevitable. In
entering the territory of Mexico
with an army, America is con
fronted with the difficult prob
lem of accomplishing the desired
object of punishing a portion of
the Mexican people while at the
same time maintaining friendly
relations with rest. It is indeed
a task of vital possibilities. Villa
and his men may be outlaws in
their own country but, at the
same time, it must be remember
ed that they are part and parcel
of the Mexican people, bone of
the same bone and flesh of the
some flesh; attached to them by
ties of blood and race—the clos
est bonds of humanity. It is
therefore, hardly to be expected
that an armed invasion by the
military forces of an alien race,
the intent and purpose of which
is to attack and destroy their own
people, will be looked upon with
favor by the rank and file of the
populace. It matters not the sins
of Villa and his men, natural im
pulses will draw the people into
sympathy with them when they
are threatened by an alien foe,
especially when that foe has in
vaded the country in the accom
plishment of its purpose. Racial
pride and every kindred instinct
are against allowing their pun
ishment to be accomplished on
their own native soil by foreign
intruders. The Mexican govern
ment has agreed, in view of cer
tain undesirable alternatives, to
allow the entry of American
troops for this purpose but this
«o» mean that such action
is viewed as other than an un
welcome necessity, to be condon
ed because it was inevitable. The
Mexican government was really
allowed but little option in the
matter and it therefore agreed to
what could plainly not be avoided
if it should be the wish of the
United States to proceed in the
face of protest. To the govern
ment it was. a matter of good
policy pure and simple.
But, to the people it will doubt
less appear an unwarranted vio
lation of the rights of an inde
pendant nation to exercise sov
eignty over its own soil and peo
ple, and they will probably re
sent it with an ardor intensified
by the knowledge that they can
not hope to prevent it without
bringing upon themselves an
even deeper humiliation. To a

proiuL people there can be no
more grievious offense than to be
compelled to an unwarranted sub
mission and this is exactly the
situation of the Mexican people
today. "lliey are compelled to
submit to what they unuouotediy
consider an indignity simply be*
cause they have not the power
to resent it. The government has
bowed tp. the inevitable with such
good grace as was possible under
the circumstances but whether
the people will be able to subvert
their natural feelings, which are
moreover intensified by a deep
seated hatred of all things Am
erican, to the obvious dictates ol
policy, time alone will disclose.
In any event the situation is crit
ical in the extreme and is^plainly
liable to result in conditions of
the most alarming gravity to both
Mexico and the United States
