Show WATCH THE MEXICANS! Reports from Mexico are to the effect ef-fect that an anti-American propaganda is being carried on and the property of foreigners, except that of Germans, is in constant danger. Germans are virtually dominating Mexican affairs. If this bo true, the time has arrived ar-rived for America to begin to try out Its forces on the republic to the Bouth of us. Americans still feel the sting of the German Intrigue, which Mexicans must havo encouraged, by which the United States was to be attacked by Mexico, and, If further evidence is at hand to provo Carranza and his people, peo-ple, in league with the Germans, think favorably of an attack on this country, coun-try, then plans ahould be perfected looking to the warding off of such a i blow and tho placing of Mexico in a straight-Jacket, A war with Mexico would be good training for the men who may be called on to carry the Stars and Stripes across tho ocean. uu BATTLE HYMN OF THE RPUBLIC. (By Julia Ward Howe.) Mino oyes have seen tho glory of the coming of the Lord; Ho is trampling out the vintage whore tho grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed tho fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword. His truth Is marching on. I have seen him In the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps; They have bullded him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read his righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps. His day is marching on. I have read a Gery gospel writ In rows of burnished steel; "As ye deal with my contempors, so with you my grace shall deal"; Let the hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel, Since God is marching on. He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men before be-fore his judgment seat; Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet! Our God is marching on. In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across tho sea, With a glory In His bosom that transfigures trans-figures you and me; As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on. oo |
