C Uk FOLLOTTE ASKS WHO OWNS MEXICO Noted Stattftnian Het-lares I'nited States Cpitalits Hold More lroHrty tluui Mexican A recent issue of La Follette's .Ma gait ne contains an article, signed by Senator H. M. La Follette of Wis consin, entitled, "Who Owns Mexi co?" In view of the fact that Mr. Hughes devoted so large a propor tion of bis speech of acceptance to criticism of 1'residcnt Wilson's Mex ican policy, this notable article by Senator La Kollette acquires renew ed interest, and Is well worth read ing by all students of national poli tics. The senator points out that the amount of investments In Mexico by United Slates capitalists, speculators and promoters is 11,057,770.000, while the amount invested by Mexi cans themselves is reported as only $793,187,242. This extraordinary fact, the senator believes, accounts largely for the demand for "inter vention" in various quarters. Important parts of the article are herewith reproduced: Who Owim Mexico? The people of the United States do not want war with Mexico. The Mexican people do not want war with us. And both President Wilson and Carranza have manifestly done ev erything in their power to avert war. What Is it, then, that menaces the peace of these neighboring coun tries? It dates far back of the Columbus raid. That outrage upon the resi dents of one of our border towns was the logical outcome of conditions for which the Mexican people were In no wise responsible. Worse than that! The Mexican people were really in nocent victims of traitors in our midst. For it is churged upon the highest authority that the raid was inspired and arranged for In our own country! Io you get the full meaning of that statement? Benedict Arnold was not more guilty of treason. The pet-ret service of this govern ment has u long hi in and a strong arm. The net may yet be drawn on I lie "higher-up." It is fair to as bunie that President Wilson did not dUilohe all of the facts in his pos session when he declared ofticially a tew days after the raid that: "There were persons along the border actively engaged in creatiirg friction between the governments of the United States and the de facto govern ment of Mexico for the purpose of bringing about intervention in the interest of certain owners ' of Mexican properties." There you have it! The gentle men who want war with Mexico are the gentlemen who "have Mexican properties." They are a very powei ful lot. They orate about "patriotism." They clamor for "preparedness." .They have tried to plunge the coun 'try into a hysteria of fear that we 'are going to be thrown into war with Germany or England or Japan. These American "investors" in I Mexico millionaires are using ev ! ery instrument they can control, their money, their newspapers, their magazines, their political influence. ull their "dark and devlouB ways"- I to bring about "Intervention."

What follows shows the wealth of Mexico, according to nat ionality of ownership. It Is taken from the United States Consular He- port No. 168 issued July 18, 1912, by Consul Marlon Letcher of Chihau hau. This table was prepared by Wlllion 11. Seamon, late of Chlhau hau, who, according to the statement of this Consular Heport, "has had long experience In Mexico as a min ing engineer:" Amount Nationality. fo Investment American $1,057,770,000 Kngllsh 321.302,800 French 143,446.000 Mexican 793.187.242 Other Nations 118.535.380 Hold fast to these figures. What ever may be urged upon you In these trying times by way of Justifying "intervention," eep in mind this big. outstanding fact: American financiers have more money invested in Mexico than the Mexicans themselves have 1264.- 582,758 more. American Investments are biggest of all in that unhappy, system-rid den country. This American money is found In railroad stocks and bonds, mines. national bonds, ranches, smelters, timber lands, factories, oil, rubber, Insurance, and other enterprises. I't us glance at a few mors fig ures from the same authority: Kail way storks Mexican money Invested, f 125,440.000; American money Invested, $235,464,000.

Timber lands Mexican money in vested, ? R.6O0.000; American money invested. $8,100,000. Factories (Miscellaneous) Mex ican money invested, $3,270,000; A merlcan money Invested, $9,600,000. Oil Mexican money Invested, $4,- 650.000; American money invested, $15,000,000. Rubber Mexican money invested, $4,500,000; American money invest ed. $15,000,000. Insurance Mexican money in vested, $2,000,000; American money invested. $4,000,000. In the ownership or Mexico we find the real menace to the peace be tween Mexico and the United States. American capitalists are desperately attempting to have the flag follow their investments. ' They who own Mexico are the ones who want war. Shall these powerful interests be permitted to succeed in their plot? HOHF.UT M. LA FOLLKTTI-J.

JACK KENNEDY'S VIEW Correspondent for large Dai I let. (aivew View on Interview with JesN Willurd One of those who .accompanied The Herald reporter oil his recent in lerview with Jess Willard at Alliance was our friend "Jack" Kennedy of Kllsworth. Jack takes an interest in things of this kind and took a leading part in the interview. The result was the following article from his prolific pen for the papers: The mighty must fall, but simplic ity and unpretentious human action tan avoid the contamination of ar rogance and ies majeste. With the stellar capacity of Jess Willard came the widespread information that from the first peep at the galaxy of the heavens from the folds of the tarp each morning until he again wrapped his gigantic form into its eaceful seclusion be led the simple life unaffected by the vainglories of the outer world. In this we could see the rejuvenatlou of the manly art. as we could also see the return of that interest in the game that was o manifest in the hearts and ambi tions of the mala population twenty years ago. Aided by his immense stature and his well-ordered common-place existence together with his apparent freedom from the al lurements of fame, we had come to believe that another hero had been born that would elicit at his Inevita ble passing the saddened tear that marked the departure from the squared circle of one John L. Sulli van. Rut alas and alack, and then, alack and alas, our dream has been shattered. The realities of existence with Its abundance of human .imper fections have been forced upon us In a manner that words cannot explain, for we nearly met the great "Jess", and In the near-meeting the dream structure toppled and fell, leaving us the largest particles In a debris that beggers description. "Your reporter", acocmpanled by Lloyd Thomas, the able representa tive of the Alliance Herald, who has so successfully Interviewed celebri ties with a frequency that is making him the envy of his compeers, evolv ed the Idea that from the gallant type of "Gibson's champion", iu the passing show (circus) could be se cured the stimulation of heart ex pression that would Bet aright for ages a yearning populace. It was' not our intention to ask Mr. Willard regarding the fast accumu lation of shekels, nor to get from him a comparison of his feeling now and during his youth and young manhood, when his only ambition was to buy the adjoining quarter to the old homestead and which, as the story runs, was purchased from the first handful of "kale" he ever own ed. No, far from this, for our thoughts were only of the good that night come to an effervescent youtr in a hearfelt expression from a per fect physical being who had, to all intents and purposes, achieved the highest success, the master of him self and all men. Even if we say It ourselves, we think this effort was laudatory and we believe, too, that If we dealt with a less perfect man our effort would have had a more perfect ending. liul to the story. Tho impulse of the good thought engendered action that brought us to the, palatial ex terior of the "(Irand Canyon," a car so superb in setting and appearance that one would wonder bow a lol lower of the simple life could be con fined all alone with bis manager and not be contaminated with the glare of the white lights. Upon our ar rival these same lights were aglow. Our request through the open win dow for an Interview was met by Manager Jones, who invited us to the observation end of the car. There after cooling our heels for some time amid the luxurlousness of shining mahogany and brass, set off with flowers ami potted plants, we became suspicious and returned to where the light in the window was burning so brightly a few moments before and which was burning not, now. We again repeated our requests but with out response, and again returned to the place formerly directed to. We then did a little knocking on the door. This brought forth the afore mentioned managed, Mr. Jones. Af ter the preliminary apology for dis turbing them at that late hour It was 7:45 p. m., we made, known our worthy mission and asked that Mr. Willard, from bis lofty prominence, give the aforementioned yearning youth the inspiration they slavishly craved. "Mr. Willard," says Mr. Jones, "does not rare to be interviewed." "JouM he not say a few words of uplift for the profession of which be is premier, as well as idealize on the exacting physical requirements de manded in the acquiring of the same. This for the benefit of the rising generation as well as for the fans who take great pride in bis suc cess." "Mr. Willard does not wish to be disturbed" (the hour 7 : 45 p. in.' be ing unseasonable for a man of such perfection). "Well, then can you not, as Mr. Willard's manager, give us a cheer ing thought for the coming possibili ties?" In a solemn and awe-inspiring voice he responded as follows: "All that I can say is that if boys want to box I s'pose they will box." "This, then, la all that can be said at this time?" "Yes." (Door slams). Not even a pleasant good night greeted efforts that had for their mo tive lofty inspiration. Thus ended an Interview that might have meant so much to an anxious world. Quietly, however, the Impression has gone forth that there are two "Jess Willards", one traveling with each section of the circus, the or iginal Willard being with the other main circus. We would rather be lieve that this is the fact, for who but a substitute and a substitute manager coeld feign such an im portance, for such trivial reasons, when the Importance of Itself, if It b- real, affords such opportunity for beneficial expression of thought to an admiring world. Hut such are the ways of th- pass ing (circus) show. WAXTKI) Old clean rags, 0c fxr pound, ( all 810. Should Sloan' Liniment ( Along? Of course it should!
