Feilding Star, Oroua and Kiwitea Counties' Gazette. TUESDAY, JUNE 20, 1916. AMERICA AGAIN!

F.vn-: is pursuing the Americans wilh deadly persistency, and U.S.A. is fast becoming as unhappy a neutral nation as Greece. ft would appear that the fates have determined that the American must, light somebody, and if he will not throw his hat into the international ring, then, it must be- thrown in grim earnest into Ihe Mexican arena. As we pointed out in a previous article when, dealing with President Wilson's candidal lire. ' Ul ' ix'-ch-'c-

lion, lie will have to (put, writing Notes and take lo dictating ultimatums if he wants his political parly to give him a, majority at lho Presidential elections in November next. Fm' this there is to bo a straight-out contest. Wilson v. Hughes. All sections „l' Republicans have rallied around the Hughes standard, and even Mr. Roosevelt'has been satisfied that .Judge Hughes is sound, on the goose in regard to the. upholding of America's honour internationally. The Democrats arc equally solid for Dr. Wilson, and tho latter has now played a trump card in taking Ihe extreme step of calling out the. militia of •12 States in the Union lo hold tho southern border against President Carranx.a's threat to hum. the hate.] Cringe over tlie frontier. Seeing that some of fhoso to bo hunted are picked American regulars who were sent into Mexico on a foray after Villa, President Wilson, from tin' military as well as the political point of view, hail to move against the Cnrranza threat. If is not a ease of calling a bin If, as in Note-writing to (Germany; for the. Mexican is full of tight, aud I here arc so many political, social, and brigand fuel ions iv Mexico that the easiest way out for the politicians and grafters of that distressful country i.s to set I lie neons and the patriots unitedly at the throat of the common enemy, .lust how far Gorman money is financing the Carrauza campaign it i.s hard to say, but there is no doubt that German intrigue is working behind the turmoil, lioth the Wilson and the Hughes Presidential programmes contain condemnation of the Hyphenates tis enemies in the midst, of tho Commonweal. Despite the manlier in which President Wilson has played the German game since the war began, lie has not won credit for it either iv the Fatherland or in America ; and we are told that the Ger-man-Americans have decided to vote against his re-election. If the Hyphenates thus use the .Judge Lo whip the Doctor., then the time will soon come when America will declare wholeheartedly for the Allies--and will clean up the Mexicans all the better for o uing to such a decision.
