Threat of French intervention in Mexico endangers U S security
The Boston Post fears Napoleon III may seize Mexico, pressuring U S borders. It imagines a French sea and land invasion spanning California to Texas, aided by 100000 Mexican and 100000 French troops, and calls for immediate action to prevent such a scenario. It warns of lost California and the broader threat to national order.
