L WAR WITH MEXICO. i
" All indications point to war with
Mexico. President Wilson has noti
sied Huerta that he must retire and
that no man who is so identified
with higs administration that he
would be under Huerta’s control will
ve tolerated as President of Mexico.
*® ¥ B 3
That Huerta will retire is un
thinkable. He is not that kind of
man. He is the impersonation of
brute force. He is not a physical
coward or he would not have dared
the role of dictator which he has
assumed. He has shown that he hvasal
an amount of nerve seldom displayed
on this ' continent, and having
mapped out a course for himself he
will unquestionably play the game
to the end. There is every probabil
ity that he will die fighting.
The effort to make Huerta see the
advantage of getting into line with
the higher and better thought of the
age, as exemplified in President Wil
son, has been wasted, except to bring
oyt in strong light the true char
a¢ter of Huerta and to make clearer
the necessity that the United States
take part in the pacification and re
gdneration of Mexico.
In that view President Wilson's
palicy of sending Lind to confer with
Hprerta has been vindicated. The
world now sees that we are deal
ing with’'a military dictator and man
of such high-handed methods that he
is outside the pale of modern civil
ization and has no conception of a
republican form' of government.
* ¢ W
While the Huerta dynasty hng
hbeen crumbling of its own internal
defects the Constitutionalists have
been gaining steadily in strength.
They claim that they can dispose of
Huerta without aid from the United
St*tes if they are recognized and al-i
lowed to import arms and ammuni
tion.
Whether Wilson will let affairs
take that course or conduct a war of]
bis own is nat yet known. It might|
ke much wiser to assist the Consti- |
tutionalists and thus avoid a ten-{
dency to unite the Mexican pvoplv;
against our government as an out- |
sider interfering with their urfairs.l
Our ships are already in Mexican |
waters, our army is in readiness t'm'f
war and the indications are that w«,-i
will take the full responsibility, |
President Wilson is actng with
great caution, but when he strikes
it will mean much for Mexico. The
outcome will tend toward real free
dom for the people of that country.
They have always been ruled with a
rod of iron, and as a consequence are,
for the most part, in ignormance and
poverty, but the end of despotism
ig in sight and out of the turmoil of
war the country will emerge into a
brighter day, just as Cuba has, un
der the guidance of the United
States, found a tranquility and
progress never known under the
dark dominion of Spain,.

GEORGIA APPLES.
The Macon Telegraph published a
column a few days ago in praise of
the apple exhibitions at the state
fair and the Macon News writing on
the same subject says:
As proven by the Rabun county
display, Georgia can raise apples as
fine as those grown anywhere else in
the world, and better, to a consider
able extent, than most of the apples
shipped to us from northern and west
ern states. There are fifty one vari
eties exhibited by Rabun County, one
of which has taken a premium as
the finest apple shown at the gredt
expogition held annually in the state
of Washington. There are other var
ieties that are splendid, well nigh
perfect, specimens of apple culture.
Ten years from now there should not
he a barren hillside in Rabun and
the other Counties of the northern
part of the state, where the soil
and climate are marvelously adapted
to apple trees,’”
