HOW WAR BEGAN IN 181
Thornton's Men Ambushed m Troop
era Were at Carrizal
From the New YorkJIerald."
History yesterday repeated itself,
and the existence of a state of war,
with Mexico appears to be a stern,
stubborn fact
, In April, 1846, a squadron of dra
goons under Captain Thornton was
sent by General Taylor up the Rio
Grande to obtain information regard
inr a force under the Mexican Gen-
eral Torrejon which had crossed the
river, the American and Mexican
forces then being within a few miles
of each other, but both countries still
being at peace. -Captain Thornton's
command entered He corral of a ha
cienda, whan the gate was closed and
they found themselves ambushed. At
tempting to escap?, Thornton wai
wounded and 16 officers and ' men
fell dead or wounded before Captain
Hardee, whd succeeded to the com
mand, surrendered.
This began the Mexican War 70
years ago, some weeks before Con
gress knew anything about . the de
cision that the gods had forced upon
the country.
What happened 'yesterday at Car
rizal appears to be somewhat be
clouded, but enough is known to in
dicate that the American- troopers
of the Tenth Cavalry were ambushed
as "Thornton's dragoons were and
practically annihilated with conceal
ed "machine guns. This was done
by Carranza troops. The Mexicans
report many wounded and many pris
oners. It will encouraee the Mexi
cans, who will profess to believe that
the American troops are easy to
beat. It should inflame the patriot
ic ardor of this country, which has
not heretofore been very enthusias
tic at the orosDect of war with Mex
ico. Boots and saddles! No waiting
more!

First Partition. Made 7ft Years Ago
Carolinians Are Few Who Know
Extent of Mexico's Possessions
Prior to 1845 ,
Charlotte Observer.
It's a very food time now to look
up yonr, history on the result of our
war wiui iiexico seventy years ago.
How many people in the Carolinas
actually .know that seventy years ajro,
a!mcst to a month, we made war upon
Mexico under circumstances of dis
order and revolution quite similar to
those that exist today? How manv
Carolinians know that it took us two
years to ret thinsrs in shape in Mexico.
after we had crossed the Rio Grande
and after we had captured Vera
Crux ? How many readers of The
Observer are aware that we took from
Mexico as the indemnity for our bill
of costs, the territory which is now
the States of Utah, New Mexico,
Arizona and California, in addition to
the rreat State of Texas, into which
ou could place all of the New
England States and still have room
to "pare.' We had annexed the State
of Texas, it is true, but not without
home bloodshed. The territory we
took from Mexico has an area of
918,000 square miles. Just think of
it. And the present area of Mexio
is 765,000 square miles.
According to these figures the we
took from Mexico by arms and con
quest more than half her original
territory. Even omitting the State
of Texas from these calculations in
1848 we virtually split Mexico in two
and took one-half her territory as
snoils of war. Just look at the con
dition, , as a comparison, of the half
OI Mexican ixeniury we vw men
and the half that remained for Mex
ican rule. Look at the advancement
in civilization, education, schools, the
fine arts, home culture and a thous
and other thinirs of nrimarv import
ance in our conquered half of the
original Mexico great civiled States
In whirl, law and order are and ever
will be supreme. Here is prosperity,
liberty, security, personal happiness,
comfort, even luxury ana-inaepeno-ence.
Every where one sees happy
homes and a contented people.
Then gaze upon that country we
left to Mexican rule. A blood-soak
bA land ct famine. Dovertv. unhappi
ness and desolation, where human life
is scorned as valueless and brigands
sweep through towns and. villages at
ni'crhf with torch and run and lay to
want; tihe work of many men, for
generations. Under Mexican rule
this land of the cactus and shifting
sands has been given up to the spoil
er .llitpracv. novertv and riot. In
dustry lies nrostrate even those
utiirtpd bv outside capital
labor is unpaid, there is no demand
for anvthin? more tangible than ra
tions for today. The Mexican motto
is "let tomorrow take care of itseli
Mexico has gone back to the dark
ages. It no longer bears the slight
est resemblance to a nation of the
twentieth century. Looking at these
two pictures and comparing them,
who among you can truthfully say
that conquest and annexation have
not proven blessings far greater than
the price it cost us seventy years
ago? And be not unmindful of the

Don't Stop Working Crop Too Soon
Crops Are Growing Fine Where
They Have Ben Got'en Clean and
Are Kept Stirred
To the Editor of The Robesonian.
Farmers are very busy in this
section, fighting grass, but when we
can get our crops clean and keep
them stirred regular the crops are
growing fine. It is ideal weather
for crops to grow. Old corn is need
ing some light rains.
A, word of warning here might not
be out of place. If farmers will
think about it right, after we have
had much rairi and the ground has
been packed we should be very cau
tious not to stop plowing corn ; and
cotton too soon. I am fully con
vinced that we would make at least
1-6 more cotton and corn and other
products in proportion if we would
exercise prudence along the line of
our last work in hilling our crops.
We must not stop work too soon.
