M0d6rO Talks
OF Peace Terms

Madero Camp, via Ell Paso,
Texas, April 22-Franciseo A.
Madero leader of the insurrectos,
stated today to a representative
of the press that he does not de-
mand the immediate resignation
# President Diaz, before peace
will be restored in Mexico, but
hat he does and will continue to
demand that the people be youch-
'afed those rights and liberties,
to which they are entitled, chief
IF WHICH he gave as an honest
and free election. He is quoted
as saying that he would like to
see the revolution end peacefully
and that he would much prefer
that there be no further blood
shed. But, he added, there can
be no peace, as long as conditions
must continue as at present. We
are willing to treat with those
in power, but they must recOg-
nize our rights.

OUTLINE
OF PEACE
PROPOSAL

The proposal of peace which
Madero, the insurrecto leader
was asked to accept, but which
was promptly rejected by him
contained the following public de-
mands:
First, that concrete guaran-
tees be Forthcoming from the
Mexican government that the
promises and other already partly
executed reforms will be i'm
planted and developed as rapidly
as possible.
Second, that with this guar
antee perfected, the armed le.
bellion has carried it's avowed
principles into triumph, and as
consequence ceases thereafter to
be justified, and its persistence
renders it dangerous to our fu-
ture peace and welfare, and there
fore unpatriotic and undeserving
Of further public support.
Third, that the retirement of
General Diaz is not necessary to
insure compliance by the govern
ment with it's promises, but on
the contrary, would reinsta te the
demoralizing precedent of con-
stituted authority yielding to
force Of arms.
Fourth, that compromise
would not only demonstrate to the
world the good sense and patrio-
5isrn Of the. Mexican public, and
thus obtain a complete retrieval
nf ife taaomentarily io6t prestige
and credit abroad, but would re-
suit in the creation Of two politi-
,al parties similar to those that
lavt brought about in the Uni
ed States the effective govern
nent by the people and for the

COMPARES
REVOLUTION
TO CIRCUS

Ell Paso, Tex, April 22-S. NJ.
Ihmsen, general manager of the
Los Angeles Express, is quoted
as having compared the distur-
bance in Mexico with a Circus Of
acme magnitude. He claims to
have visited Juarez and also the
rebel camp near the old smelter.
He says the street cars were
crowded with people going out to
visit the .camp, among them be-
ing many women. The crowds
!resembled those at circus time,
The rebel officers received me
very courteously, said Ihmsen,
and | found the cannon trained
upon the city as has been told
through the papers. Sentries
were walking their posts, with
their arms ready for service.
Alongside the sentries was a hand
organ and monkey show, and a
Mexican selling peanuts, crying
out his wares in fairly good Eng
lish Peanuts five cents a sack" "
A sinister grimness was over
all, however, on account of the
cartridge belts which all wore.
and thessnumerous bandages onthe
arms, heads and various parts of
the body, all bloodstained, There
is no doubt but that Madero has
a political crouch. neither can it
be gainsaid but that the people |
are with him and have faith in
him and the promises Of reforms
which he has gwen them. T0l
