MEXICO.
The serious crisis in the Mexican
situation is one that doubtless even
the most shortsighted man in the
street has seen coming. It is prob
ably certain that when United States
troops crossed into Mexico, no mat
ter what was the occasion for such
a step, that in itself violated the
national integrity and as such was
regarded by the Mexican people.
It is doubtful if there Is any na
tion in the would would
regard with indifference or
equanimity the invasion ot
its soil by an allien band of troops
and the Mexicans, a nation of some
what nervous and irascible tempera
ment could hardly have observed it
with continued phlegm.
That war will result is highly
probable, if indeed a condition of
war may not be said to exist, and
while a good many Americans with
supreme confidence in the army and
navy and militia may consider it u
small task to defeat the Mexicans,
it is hardly to be considered such a
very simple matter.
In the first place it is only by a
stretch of imagination that one can
consider Carranza as in control of u
government. And while war would
be declared by him, it is doubtful if
he can end it. An American war
would unite every Mexican faction:
Znpatist, Diazitc or Villatist. They
would flock to the Carranza banner
and would without question present
quite a formidable opposition.
The final outcome no one uouois.
"With superior equipment anil orga
nization with better and more se
cure supplies there could be but
one ending to the war and that is
the final triumph of the United
States. But the United States would
find itself in the peculiar position ot
fighting not the Mexican govern
ment but the Mexican people. If
lighting tlie Carranza government
when the Carrrr.nza government was
defeated on the field, then could
peace reasonably be anticipated. But
Carranza will bo as powerless to
make a peace thereafter now than
he is at the present time to unite
under his supremacy all the discord
ant factions.
Therefore when this war starts
there can be no ordinary ending un
til the Mexican people themselves
surrender their arms and cease
fighting. That too would continue
ony just so long as the United States
only just so long as the United States
forces were in Mexico and
it is self evident that
the very minute that the
United States Invades Mexico, there
and then Mexican independence will
have permanently disappeared. No
Mexican leader will arise who will
he authorized by his people to make
terms with the Americans
and any thing and every
thing will be done to resist to the
last. ' It can end only in the accept
ance of United States dominance
and that will only happen when the
war has become a guerilla fight and
later a chase of isolated bandits
through the hills.
Any person who has followed
Mexican papers carefully knows
very well that the Mexicans have
no very elevated conception of the
reason for American interferencs.
They regard it as being based upon
the vice of covetousness and they
feel that it is to uphold the land
grabbing citizens of the United
States in their land and mine loot
that the trouble has started.
Even American correspondents
have made the people familiar witn
this point of view and it is not al
together baseless.
It is certainly shared by the rest
of the Latin American states and
the invasion of Mexico is one thing
that above anything else will be
followed by a serious effect upon
the relations ot the United States
and the South and Central Amer
ican republics.
Whatever good might have fol
lowed from the Pan-American Con
gress is destroyed at one fell blow,
and the consequences it is imposs
ible fully to realize just now.
All South America suspects Uncle
Sam. They point to what has hap
pened in Nicaragua, in Costa Rica,
in Columbia (Panama) and they in
sist that because those nations were
weak, they were made the pititful
victims of dollar diplomacy.
This is simply notorious. Very
little good can come of the fact that
almost any European nation stands
higher in the esteem of the South
American republics than the United
States. Almost every nation is be
lieved to have higher national ideals
and to have their international poli
cies based upon higher national
ideals than the United States.
Almost savage in the bitterness ol
their sardonic humor are the car
toons of the Latin-American papers
when depicting Uncle Sam. They
literally seethe with the cruel venom
of contemptuous bitterness and this
unfortunate phase of things has
been but little bettered by the at
tempted rapprochement that had
been tried under Wilson through
the Pan American Congress, and
under Taft by the Root mission
abroad.
The result of an invasion of or
war with Mexico would be to inten
sify this suspicion that is poisoning
the relations between the United
States and the other republics 01
this hemisphere. There cannot be
any doubt of this. The other repub
lics will fear for their own integrity.
They will believe that the Uniten
States lias desigrs upon them and
they will distrust and fear and dis
like and oppose the policies of the
United States.
It is only a short sight that will
ignore this important fact. But
probably it is now too late. The
clamor for intervention is loud: the
consequence of intervention Is
ignored.
We doubt very much if all of
Mexico is worth the price that will
be paid for it. That price is to be
estimated not alone in dead and
wounded, but in an enduring hate
that inevitably affects the destinies
of the nations.
Such will not be confined to Mex
ico or the Mexicans The bond of
sympathy that exists among Latin
Americans is much more real and
much stronger than that of the
other nations. It is much stronger
and much more real and much more
vital than that which unites Canada
and the United States. To the La
tin American temperament, sympa
they and sentiment are very real
and living things affecting men s
lives and Impulses as many things
with much greater material force
could never do.
It will have a potent effect upon
American’s future position if Mexico
Is to be the Niobe of nations on
this western hemisphere, and the
United States the power that slew
her children and changed her from
an independent and struggling nation
to a rock sending the tears of its
grief to Inspire a blistering hate and
bitterness against the northern
author of her woes among the Latin
American republics.
It is true there have been great
disorders In Mexico and that Amer
icans have suffered by reason of
that; none the less with greater
tact and greater judgment and less
hearkening to the Interventionist
cause, we believe peace could have
been well and honorably main
tained. _
