SAYS UNREST IN MEXICO
CAUSED BY CAPITALISTS

SAN BERNARDINO. Oct. 2s.-IEd-
itor Herald: For some time there
has been brewing a spirit of revolu-
tionary unrest among the Mexican
residents of the United States, partic-
ularly among those along the Mexican
border. The cause of this unrest is
by no means apparent on the surface;
it is moving deeply and there Is mucn
at the bottom of it-so much that
Mexicans will find 1t very advisable
to keep their mouths shut and their
ears open. learn and reason for some
little time to come. There Is no JUS
tifiable reason for a revolutionary
movement such as we see brewing.
But all of this will appear later. There
is now started a series of articles In
the American Magazine entitled bar
barous Mexico" In due time those
articles will be analysed for their OBJ
ject and meaning, and since they will
certainly prove false in foundation
and fact, they will nevertheless lead
TO a careful and conscientious COM
parispn of their corresponding condl-
IONS in this country. 1t Is not llkeiy
that such national calumny Will be
allowed to pass unnoticed in these
days of cheap ink and paper. The ar
ticles in question are not warranted
by nation as civilized as this United
States So the worst to be expected
from them will be a nation slandereo
on the one hand and a great civilized
center disgraeed on the other.
The eyes of all Europe as well as
those of the Orient are closely Waten-
ing how the capitalistic class OF TINS
United States manufacture tools out
of the government and its people 10
serve and gain its own selfish ends.
Mexico is now being eagerly sought
by this class, and no doubt but What
her repreachful course of getting at
it viii make interesting reading Tor
the rest of the world. There Is an IN
innate connection between this mat
ter and the American Magazines SLAM
dering articles. And here you will no.
tice that he has the entire press or
the country out advertising him. The
thing has never been done before In
the history of sensational articles. The
American people, like the Mexicans'
are in need OF a forge to make men
wise.S
If you Mexieans have a revolution
ary grievance, go to Mexico and rignl
your grievance by intelligent political
organization and conscientious use OF
the ballot. Do not be used as tools
for the capitalists of this country ana
traitors to Mexico. The capitalistlc
class of this country has simply laid
a deep plot for a revolutionary move
ment In MeXicoi tnen lntelNshlioi ~
the arms of the United States and the
final excuse to control the country by
debating to the warning factions.
Don't YOU see how this was done in
Cuba, Venezuela and Colombia? on
those lines you revolutionary Mexicans
are about to betray and sell your hb-
erty. In short, are you patriots or
traitors? Just listen to the howl tnat
is being created over De Lara! De
Lara is wanted here for a central pur-
pose, while the press of the country
is having you believe that Mexico
wants him for a victim OF capital pun
ishment. The fact is this: If Mexico
did want him, De Lara would have
been sent over the line a long time
AGO, The very people that lionize De
Lara would be only too glad to see
Mexico execute him If for nothing
more than sensational matter.
