NOME. ALASKA, JULY 22, 1916.
With 4li*. Villa again on deck, albeit I
a trilb shy in anatomical appendages,
the Mexican situation is again grow
ing interesting.
Indeed if the statements credited to
General Funston in today’s news dis
patches are founded upon accurate 1
information, the versatile Uancho is
likely to provoke complications agree
able to neither Carranza nor Uncle |
Sam. Villa is a tighter and with a1
formidable army at his hack will
probably stall things to humming at
a rate that is very apt to disconcert |
his enemies. He cannot hope to win
out against the forces that
will be ultimately thrown against him 1
by the United States hut he can make .
thing** vorv into»*onting for u lime*
at I. ,-t. Considering the general sit
uation in Mexico at the present time.
Villa apf" rs to have sprung his lit- i
tit reappearance act at a time when
conditions are most opportune for the
further pursuit of his plan to down
the de facto government and estab
lish himself in power. According to
all reports, conditions in Mexico are
far from conducive to a settle state
or condition of things. The system
of government is more or less in a j
stale of chaos, industry is at a stand
still and a large portion of the popu- j
lace are on the edge of starvation ow
ing lo the widespread neglect of pro- I
duetive pursuits during the long pe
riod of strife.
Kxcept in the more favored sections
the people are facing the prospect of
going with a partially filled stomach
for a considerable period. Destitu
tion of the most hopeless character is
the prevailing condition of the larger ,
portion of the masses. The financial
ly crippled and partially organized
■ government is little able to relieve!
this condition, however willing it may
he, hem i there is a strong probabil- !
ity that things will grow worse be- l
fore they grow better-- before the coun- ,
try will be restored to a state of pro
ductiveness equal to the needs of its
population.
Facing a prospect of this character, j
the average Mexican is probably in a |
rather desperate frame of tnind and j
is very liable to seize upon any pros- j
peet of immediate relief, regardless of
its nature. Having already had a \
• aste of lighting, he is probably not |
adverse to shouldering a gun and ,
starting on the uar path, especially
s he knows that while fighting he is
fairly sure of having enough to eat.
The reappearance of the seemingly
irrespressibh Mr. Villa with a good
sized army, as armies go in Mexico,
will probably appear to the average
peon very much like a godsend and he
will doubtless he willing to lend him
self readily to the schemes of that
leader. Villa’s plans will Include
plenty of oportunities for plunder and
always lie will have at least enough
lo fat. Mr. Villa will probably find
recruits aplenty waiting him on every
side as long as he can furnish a good
prospect of steady provender. And, if
he is able to win a few victories from
the Carranzists he will very likely he
unable to handle the men who will
flock to his banner. His days are
numbered, of course, now that Uncle
Sam is on his trail, but unless he is
speedily suppressed he is very likely
to provoke complications which will
be extremely difficult for even the
Untied States to handle.
