GRAND-MILITARY BALL.
Professor Edwin Maxey of tho law
school delivered an interesting addresB
at yesterday '8 convocation on "The
(Mexican Situation:" Professor Maxey
said tho reports of the revolution in
Mexico had been greatly exaggerated
by. the American, newspapers, which at
times exhibit great imaginations. The
insurrection In- reality is confined to
thfeo of the mpat thinly settled' of tho
i Mexican provinces . TReso provinces
ate well adapted -for tho purposes' of
the- insurrectos. They are rough and
mountainous and arc close to the1
American border, whichmakes escape
convenient. One of the provinces,
Cower California, is said to bo trying
to-gain admission to the United States.
Not Over 10,000.
The revolutionary armies would not
tbtaHlOjOOOjisald'JDr. Maxey; so-thelr.
fbrces'aro small' compared wltti those'
which. the-government could put-In- the
field- It Beoms that tho Mexican gov
ernment, therefore; is not seriouBly
threatened. The men who compose
tho revolters are a great many who
have no property and some- who really
believe in democratic principles and
think they could be used In Mexico
" "successfully". " ATnrTulo-tho- property
in Mexico is owned by a few people.
Tho others have nothing at all. They
also have some real grievances. The
taxes are very high. As the officers
.are .very poorly paldj graft is abundant
and but a small portion of the taxes
reach.thettreasury. Suffrage Isnbt al
lowed ln Mexico, although thorconsti
. tutlon provides for it. However, four
fifths of. the population can neither
read nor write and for that reason it
is best that they should not vote. ,

So far about all the insurrection has
accomplished is to secure a now min-
Istry. It is thought that tho revolu
tionists can dictate other terms to tho
government, but just how far they can
go remains to bo seen. Professor
Maxey thought there was legitimate
uao for tho troops- along the border.
President Taft has "declared thero
would be no intorovntlon unless citi
zens of the United States are in dan
ger. ThiB does not mean our citizens
In Mexico, They take thesamo'chances
as the Moxlcam citizonB as long; as they
have their rights in tho courts. The
troops aro needed, to enforce our own
neutrality, a,t the border. Wo also
owe it to ourselves and Mexico to al
low no foreign forco to land in Mex
ico, although tho speaker thought that
there was nothlngto the Japanese-station
story. Then the United StateB
could not allow armed bands to ctobb
the border for cover and then go back
again as soon as tho danger was
passed. Thero is no legal, wrong- in
an American citizen enlisting with any
foreign army; but they must not- go
