There Is but one cloud upon our hori-
zon. That has shown itself to the
south of us and hangs over Mexico.
There can be no certain prospect of
peace in America until General Huerta
has surrendered his usurped authority
in Mexico. Until 1t is understood ON
all hands. indeed, such pretended gov
ernments will not be countenanced or
dealt with by the government of the
United States. We are the friends Of
constitutional government i'm America
We are more than its friends; we are
its champions. because in no other
way can our neighbors to whom we
would wish in every way to make
proof Of our friendship work out their
own development In peace and liberty.
Mexico has no government. The at
tempt to maintain one at the City of
Mexico has broken down. and a mere
military despotism has been set up
which has hardly more than the SEM
blance Of national authority. 1t Origi-

Even II the usurper had succeeded
in his purposes, In despite Of the con

Of its people. he would have set uI
nothing but n precarlOus and hateful
power which could have lasted but q
little while end whose eventual down
fall would have left the country In q
more deplorable condition than ever
But he has not succeeded. He has for

time willing to see him succeed. Little
