THE END OF lllERTA
After a career vastly less im
portant and significant than
that of Porfirio Diaz, the strongest
of the .Mexican, dictators, V»c
toriano Huer'a has stepped down
and out much as Di^a did. Swear
ing that he would never resign, he
has formally given up his office.
Pledging his life to his followers
and his cause, he seeks safety in
flight. y owing uuor.<Jing resist
ance to revolutionary forces, ho has
yielded.
It is not a 6uprislxig change, in
tee Ignited States or in .Mexico.
For a long time it has been evi
dent that Huerta's enemies at
home, with the powedful aid of the
Wilson administration, would "get"
the Indian soldier who has been
dictator nearly a year and a half
In Mexico City.
He was undermined and over
thrown by the government of the
United States. Its lavor gave his
foes in Mexico the arms and muni
tions without which they must
hav9 failed. Its hostility broke his
credit In Europe. Its attitude put
courage and hope into the hearts
of his opponents everywhere.
The responsibilities involved in
this situation will become clear as
the days go by. lluerta was a
murderer, a tyraiu, a ruthless
military chief whose methods
knocked free government. Xo
sympathy need be wasted 011 him.
But "After Huerta. what?" The
old question remains unanswered,
and the solution of the problem it
embodies may tax the utmost wis
dom of the American president
who has wrought tbo downfall of
the Mexican usurper
This country will be fortunate if
the Mexican situation can be
cleared, finally and safely, with
out the nse of the amy aud navy
of the United States to au extent
which will make Ilia occupTTtion of
Vera Cruz seem a trilling incident.

With the grali r>arket more
or less depressed by great
crops gathered or iu prospect, the
price of beev?s It the principal
markets of the We^t is very strong
and rising. There is no consist
ency between the tre^d of values
in grain and ia livestock. Corn
and a'cere are not 1 raveling the
same road.
This condition cannot last. long.
If grain used for feeding cattle con
tinues to be cheap the price of
beeves will come down and meat
ought to follow it, even in the most
distant city markets. Farmers
will discover that 1*. pays better to
feed corn to steers than it does to
sell the grain, provided that the
market for both shall remain long
at its present level.
But it takes time to get the
young stock for feeding and for
that reason the effect of big crops
ought to be felt sooner in tie price
of pork and poultry than it cau 'be
in the market for beef. ,Pigs and
fowls mature quicker th^n cattle
and multiply much iasier. It takes
less time to got thorn roudy for fat
tening on a great corn crop.
"The nation's iioi.Hi is in the
schools," says the president of the
National Educational Association.
Wrong. The nation's hope, this be
ing vacation time, is keeping as far
away from the school as possible.
The state of Kansas expects to
get $100,000,000 for "its wheat
crop this year. And,, considering
what is goiug on in Washington,
Kansas certainly v/.'ll need the
money.
Probably what Senator Borah
thinks about tho eastern railroad
rate caso is one of the things no
considered important )>y tile lntei
jtate commerce Comm'sslon.
JDr. Osier says everybody has
tubercuiosis. Now wo won't be put
to the trouble of clilorofcrming
everybody as soon as he reaches
his fiftieth birthday.
Probably Presided* Wilson is
congratulating himself on the fact
that Mrs. Pankhurst departed for
homo before those suffragist ladies
called upon him.
Before everything js done with,
probably we shall reteivo the in
formation from tlio Vv'hite House
that the occupation of Vera Cruz
is only psychologic.il.
Chicago suffragists are going to
make a personal sacrifice August
15 a nil give the money to the cause.
Evidently the cause is in no hurry.
Au East Cleveland woman has
lost an Eskimo p'lp that "howls
constantly." Naturally the neigh
bors are under susj.ic■ on.
If the inventor or the fireless
cooker would produce a talkless
diplomat the country would be
doubly indebted to him.
Evidently nothing is now the
matter with Kansas. It has decid
ed that it can get along even with
out Jamaica ginger.
On the other hand, no real evi
dence has yet be:i produced to
show that he who hesitates in the
ballroom is lost.
Progress is so general in this
enterprising era that even the
weather bureau occasionally tries
something new.
Colonel Roosevelt lias resigned
from Dr. Lyman Abbot's Outlook,
but he is still very much in Amer
ica's outlook.
If It has not elevated them, the
democratic tariff at least lias not
prevented meat prices from being
elevated
President Wilson Insists that tho
Mason and Dixon line shall bo ob
literated. But what about the Rio
Grande?
