AVS LAW PREVENTS HUERTA
BEING A CANDIDATE.

Answering this. Senor Gamboa begs
!, 70 % excused from a direct reply for
-. time being. other than to say that
tive antecedent proposal to the end that
moved by petty interests. Mexico should
renounce a right which incontrovertibly
upholds the country at a time when
the dignity Of the nation is at stake.
= believe" he adds. ''that there are
'1ot leans enough to induce those
charged by the law to maintain that
dignity 70 permit Il to bs lssssnsd."
Concerning the exchange OF ambas-
sadors Gamboa had this to say:
- would rNounce on our part the
sadors be received Immediately, since
for the end IN view the present per-
sonnel II our reciprocal embassies Is
SUFFICIENT. II II remains as II has been
heretofore. until the elections of October
have taken place, but I viii always
stand on the unavoidable coi.dition
which declares that we are in reality
:. the ad interim constitutional govern
mont Of the Mexican Republic"
: In another part q his lengthy note,
referring to the insistence of Presi-
dent Wilson that Victoriano Huerta
bind himself not to be a candidate for
election to the Presidency at the Oc-
tober elections. Senior Gamboa quotes
from the constitutional articles OF the
Mexican Republic to prove that under
these regulations, "the Secretary Of
State In charge ofs the executive
power shall not be eligible to the
once of either President or Vice-Pres-
ident when the elections shall take
place"
! This provision, Senior Ganboa de-
iclares, prevents Huerta from being a
|icandidate.
Administration officials to-day declarf
the United States wouiG not yield on IL,
demand that Victor!ano Huerta shoul
not be candidate for President Of
Mexico.

and very unreasonable because. re-
senting my unwarranted exclusion. I
smashed their balls OF the croquet
ground and pulled up the wickets. Now.
this little incident Is OF course without
value, except as It illustrates the attl-
tude OF many larger boys when they
play any sort Of competitive game with
larger girls. Be the result OF each
game what It may, at the end the
woman finds herself arbitrarily eliml-
mated by her sex alone and John and
Tom play each other for the champion
ship. Such q game was the old Salic
law. which for a long time excluded
women from royal succession. Such a
game is the Salic law still prevailing In
practically all the professions to which
women have been admitted. Up to a
certain point the fact that you arc
woman may help you; after that your
sex shuts In upon you and crushes you
like the Iron Maid of the Induisltion
There 10 nothing more for you to

This Is Just casual suggestion to
those readers who ask the reason why
women have not yet attained the same
eminencc as men in the professions now
open TO them As yet men let us com
pete In all the prellminaries and then.
no matter what our showing. they play

WOMAN INSPIRES MAN TO DO
HIS BEST.
Dear Madam: Is woman inferior
TO man" Most emphatically. no! 1t
Is true that woman's mental clpa-
bilty Is less than that Of the oppo-
site sex. but that Is only an isem.
Man always did his best when he
was favored with the inspiration be
slowed upon him by the woman.
Many man becomes better
through the companionship OF some
! woman who. through her intuition
and the natural fanenlne gift. brings
him out Of the dark channels of
sc.hshness and hardness into man
hood OF the Son that actuated our
greater men.
The love Of doing better things,

genius, the sense OF responsibility
are the resui, of woman's inspira-
