WAR SCARE BLUFF
SAYS TAVENNER
Will Not Be Forced Upon American
People For Benefit Of Few
Millionares
BELIEVES HUERTA's END NEAR
Credits Downfall Of Present Regime
To Non-R Recognition Of United
(. States
BY Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner.

by Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner
Washington, July 29.-If there is
to be war over the Mexican situation
/ it will be war which will not only
be sanctioned, but demanded, by
every common man in America
which indicates there will be no wal
at all. l-a-#l
There will be no war forced upon
the American people for the benefit
of a few millionaires who have in
vestments in that troubled republic,
This prediction is justified, be-
lieve,, from observation of the splen-
did attitude toward Mexico being
maintained by President Woodrow
Wilson and his administration.
Every common citizen must feel a
thrill of patriotic pride at the refusal
of President Wilson to recognize the
Infamous Huerta Regime, the spawn
of treachery and assassination foist-
ed upon the Mexican people by force
of arms. The Presidents refusal to
treat with this murderous band is in
line with the best American tradi-
tions. But that refusal is, of course,
the crux of the Mexican situation.
The Huerta regime is reported to
be crumbling. It's downfall is pri-
marlly due to the fact that the
United States has refused recognition
Without that recognition Huerta is
unable to borrow the money with
which to put down the revolt being
desperately conducted by the more
courageous of his wretched country
men. %alE " @
That was his undoing. He easily
p,t g down I'd 6 Vera CRUZ revolt and
captured it's leader, Felix Diaz, nep-
hew of the deposed dictator. A less
conscientious man would have sum.
marily executed Diaz. Madero intend
ed to do it legally, after trial for
treason. Diaz appealed to the civil
courts for a write of habeas corpus
And Madero, remembering his pledge
OF constitutional government, honor
ed the writ.
Thus Diaz escaped. His gratitude to
the men whose simple honesty had
saved his life, was to begin another
revolution, and to plot with Madero's
own generals to deliver over the
President at the moment when vic
tory was in his grasp. The shameful
assassination of Medero followed
quickly. "a
This is the band which is claiming
recognition as lawful government
resting upon the consent of the gov
erned. In my opinion President Will.
son will take this action only if ne.
cessary to save the country from a
greater evil.

PENDING TARIFF

Senator Townsend Opposes Democra

Disaster
CR1T1CIsE PAYNE-ALDRICH LAW
BILL Was Conceived In Hatred Of
Protection Policy" Says Michi-
gan Scion

Washington, July Ex-senator Town
send of Michigan, in a speech in the
senate, characterized the Payne-Ald
rich tariff law as the Gettysburg
where the factions of the Republican
party were formed in battle array
that led to triumph of the Democratic
party, giving it an opportunity to write
the pending tariff bill, which he con
demned. - -.@

lean policy of protection and brought
forth in the darkness of the secret eau.
Gus chamber under the professional
charge of one who has never had any
experience in business obstetrics. Is
it any wonder that the thing is mis-
shaped and deformed?"
Senator Townsend also criticised
"executive interference" and caucus
domination. -
Injecting comments ON the lobby in
quiry in the senate and house Sen
ator Townsend said that criticism OF
improper action should be based upon
unquestioned facts and not upon in
nucndo or falsehood, and continued:
Sensational Is Featured.
To-day as at all times in the past
the sensational is too prominently fea-
:ured and too little attention given to
the truth. Indeed a saturnalia Of
abuse and Misrepresentation seems to
be reigning and in congress the two
houses are struggling to get posses
sion of self-convicted scoundrels who
have capitalized for financial gain the
existing disposition to abuse the ma.
tional legislature
Referring to the fears of business
disaster the senator declared: u

business men, who as patriots are ex-
pected to be happy the while their

There is one thing which stands
out clearly at this time and that is
this:
1.-THE administration would be SUI
premely happy if it was we'll assured
that the condition of the country
would be no worse than it is today.

BENSON A BOOSTER
Malcolm Homsteader Who Grew 76
Inch Rye On Peat Soil Pleased
With Bemedji
WAS HIS FIRST VISIT HERE

Last Friday Gilbert Benson of NAL
colin Minnesota left samples of rye
and clover grown on his farm at the
Pioneer office. The grain and grass
was grown on peat soil and according
to- reports from Mr.. Benson his
neighbors are all raising splendid
crops on similar soil.
When Mr.. A. j. Mcguire of Grand
Rapids saw the samples here last
Saturday he Immediately took Mr..
Benson's address and stated that he
would visit that mans farm as soon
as it could be arranged. The impress
sion gained by Mr.. Benson, while in
Bemidji is best explained in the
statement which came from his lips.
He said "This was my first visit to
Bemidji but hope it will not be the
last. Bemidji is fine town and like
your people. I am convinced that the
business men, Of Bemidji are trying
to do as much for us in this north sec
ton as they are for themselves, and
when the boys hear this l know they
will appreciate it.. We have great
future north of Red Lake. There is
no better soil on this good old earth.
What we need most is railroad
through this country and I under
stand that you people in Bemidji are
doing what you can to bring this
about. Let me add too that I believe
it will pay a railroad to bpild throu gh
our great farming country -.4so

President Does Not Believe The
Public Excited Over Mexican
Trouble

Washington, July 29.-President
mind in the United States is excited
over the situation in Mexico nor is he
convinced that crisis has been reach
ed in the revolution itself.
This information was obtained in
official circles with an authoritative
denial that any proposal looking to-
ward cooperation between Ameri,
can military forces and the Mexican
government at restoration of peace
had been suggested. .-.
Those who approached the presi.
dent on the Mexican situation found
him disinclined to discuss it, as later
he was to confer with Ambassador
Henry Lane Wilson. Secretary Bryan,
who arranged to see the president be-
fore the conference, also was reticent
of Mexican affairs.
The president has received from Am.
5assador Wilson historical accounts OF
events in Mexico in the last three
years. The ambassador himself de-
clared he had not mentioned any rem
edies Of the situation to any one and
he had not even put on paper the
plans he had in mind. He had re-
served these, he said, for his personal
interview with the president.
Situation Is Unchanged.
Contradictory information has reach
ed the Washington government re-
garding the stability of the Huerta
administration. 1t was said to be a
question of reliability of informants.
Officials declined to state which re-
ports were being credited. 1t was
said, however, that in the last ten days
there had been little or no change In
the ST. us of affairs in the Southern
republic.
The shooting of Charles B. Dixon,
Jr.,, at Juarez, regarded as. a serious

would insist on summary action
