MEXICO AND THE U S.
(Some Everyday Observations Con¬
cerning Motes and Beams.)
41 Two hundred and fifty attacks on
Americans since regime of Diaz.
Fifty killed in Mexico during the last
two and not arrest made. ’
years, one
Sucti were the sensational headlines
published recently in the daily pa¬
pers, apparently as part of a deter¬
mined campaign to bring about in¬
tervention in Mexico. “Two hun¬
dred and fifty attacks of a serious
nature” on Americans in ten years
in a country torn by revolution is
pretty bad, of course. That there
have been few arrests or convictions
in connection with these offenses
makes it worse.
Before we unbridle our indigna¬
tion, however, we may well stop to
reflect that in the past ten years
there have been thousands of Amer¬
ican citizens killed by mobs and riot¬
ers in the United States—scores of
them burned at the stake—and that
such a thing as the arrest or convic¬
tion of an American lyncher is al¬
most unknown. We might remem¬
ber Fast St. Louis, where scores of
innocent men and women were shot
down in the streets or beaten to
death, their homes burned and the
whole community given over to a
reign of terror which the officers
apparently took no steps to suppress.
Certainly we cannot forget the
scenes of the last few weeks in the
nation’s capital, in Chicago, in Oraa
ha and Knoxville, when law and or¬
der were thrown to the winds and
maddened mobs shed the blood of
innocent and guilty alike, burned
and dynamited residences and pub¬
lic buildings, and terrorized millions
of people. Meanwhile the local
thorities, sworn to uphold the law,
stood uselessly by, either powerless
or unwilling to keep order. And
this takes no account of murders
running into thousands a year.
S. G. Inman, in his book “Inter¬
vention in Mexico,” compares pres¬
ent-day conditions in that country
to our own reconstruction days fol¬
lowing the Civil War. With a touch
of apt humor he says, “Villa is
ing as difficult for the Mexican gov¬
ernment to catch as the James boys
were for us. Raids on ranches and
attacks oh trains are almost as fre¬
quent in Mexico as they were in
our western towns in the seventies
and eighties.” But we do not need
to go back forty years for illustra¬
tions. Only a few weeks ago in the
heart of Middle Tennessee an ex¬
press train was held up and robbed
of sixty thousand dolars and the
bandits made a clean getaway.
Within the year two banks in the su¬
burbs of Nashville wore robbed in
broad daylight by bandits, none of
whom has been apprehended.
Such things are so common
home that they excite no more than
passing notice. A lynching gets half
a dozen lines in the daily papers;
riot involving thousands of people is
a day’s sensation; a bank robbery
makes hardly a ripple on the sur¬
face. But in Mexico if an Amer¬
ican he pens to fall a victim to a
dit raid, there are those who think
that nothing short of a bloody
and annexation would be
punishment. Jesus said something
about the inconsistency *bf pluck
ing motes from other people’s eyes
while disregarding the beams in our
own. The illustration applies not in¬
aptly.
What Mexico needs is the friendly
assistance of a great neighbor nation,
as she strives earnestly to put her
house in order. Armed intervention
is not to be thought of.—Missionary
Voice.

PAIN KILLED WITHOUT SLEEP.
Developement of New Anaesthetic
Announced By Scientists.
WILMINGTON, Del., Jan. 16.—
Developement of a new anaesthetic,

/-tally no nausea” was announced
,ere today by E. I. Dupont DeNe
nours and Company. The discov¬
ery, it is claimed, would permit
elimination of pain, not only in ob
otetrieal cases and dressing of
wounds, but in dentistry.
The anaesthetic was described as
a “new type of ether—highly refined
/ad modified by addition of certain
/asses which give to it these new
and desirable characteristics.
“Its ability to produce insensibility
to pain without loss of consciousness
opens up an entirely new field of
usefulness including the large class
of operations which now are perform¬
ed without any attempt whatever to
eliminate pain,” said the company’s
announcement,

The third generation of
the family are the active
manufacturers of “Bean”
Power Sprayers today. And
the present machine — a
family John pride — still retains
Bean’s basic prin¬
ciples.
Today, wherever men
have ten acres of fruit or
more, you will almost in¬
variably find power spray¬
ers of which the famous
"Bean” was the forerun¬
ner and remains the leader.
San Jose Scale is now
practically unknown in Cali¬
fornia where more “Bean"
Sprayers are used than all
other makes combined.
Many of the country’s
greatest orchards arc now
equipped with “Bkan”
Power Sprayers exclusive¬
ly. For the “Bean,” the
pioneer in 1883, is the
world’s leading sprayer
now.

have spent half a day in re¬

ment until they have seen
“Beam" valves come out.
The valves are washed

other immensely convenient
“Bean” feature.
I he porcelain-lined cyl¬

These a d vantages are
the result of 36 years spe¬

a sprayer and want the best,
there is little choice today.
