When President Madero attempted
10 curtaIl the liberty OF the press In
Mexico. he made a serious mistake.
Had he succeeded. he would have
brought upon his administration the
charge or having assailed the very
liberty which he was supposed 70
champion. Madero rose to power
upon the tidal wave OF rebellion
against the very suppression Of free
dom which he now advocates. One
Of the most serious charges against
Diaz was the iron hand policy which
he pursued in regard to the press Of
Mexico. Editors who dared to speak
their mind in the land OF God and
Liberty" in those days were frequent
occupants OF the jail and this was
one OF the reasons why the Mexican
people rose up and deposed Don Por-
firio.
