Message in Full.

Huerta's message in full, which he ,rea
In person to the Mexican congress. Is a
follows;
In accordance with the constitu-
t!onal provisions rela tive TO the mat
ter, IL Is the duty OF the chief execu-
tive TO inform the congress OF the
nation twice every year Of the status
spending to the two solemn openings
OF the regular sessions OF your duties:
This provision having been complied
with by means of the executive re-
ports 1 read in this chamber on Sep
tember l6 last, and as II happened at
the time that the first Of April was
far ahead at which time the govern
ment should once more bring to your
attention the status OF the national
situation. II can now be understood
that this brief message cannot be so
extensive as the other documents, but
that 1t should be limited TO giving
you an account of the political events
which hnve taken place since October
10 last to this significant date In
which. by virtue of the solemn prom
ise have made before the nation and
the world, the country IS resuming Its
BILE provisions Of the fundamental
chart of the republic, and this within
such a peremptory time necesSa rily

Eyes of World on Mexico.

The present moment is extremely
solemn and perhaps decisive for tho
welfare of the nation. Not only the
eyes OF fifteen million MeXicans but
those OF the whole civilized world are
at this time fixed on U.S. Your atti-
tude and your action shall inform our
fellow citizens and future generations
whether we have been right IN cling
tional dignity above all base interests
OF the moment, or II. on the contrary
instead OF that attitude Of Intense ma
tional feeling, We should have ceded
before reprovable interests and un-
worthy ambitions.
In giving you In the name OF tho
republic the most cordial welcome I
pray for the prompt arrival Of the
hour in which all Mexicans may be
united in close fraternity. so that we
may devote our decided energies to
the great and fruitful task of recon-
structing our nation.

WROTE FAREWELL TO

Reply of Speaker.

dent of the chamber. Senor Tamariz, as
sured General Huerta of the cooperation
OF congress.
III ever there should reign In congress

cumstances. II ought to predominate as
never before and above all other senti-

To the congress he said:
Without doubt upon your work de-
pends largely that the country, with the
aid OF its good sons, should make a su-
preme effort in order not TO fall in the
ruin and humiliation which threaten It,
You come here animated by the purest

Ten Women Present.

In the entire audience there were per-
hsps ten women, but none representa-
tive of the city's fashionable clement. In
contrast TO the days when the women
OF hiSh society planned long ahead TO
obta in seats,
technical violation Of the law created
comment. General Huerta's stan filed In
wearing side arms. II Is specifically pro-
vidcd that no armed soldier shall appear
on the floor OF the house, and custom has
ordained that officers appearing In uni
form must do so with empty scaoba ris.
But the swords in evidence at the sides
OF the members of General Hycrtu's staff
appeared TO emphasize the fact that this
is a military administration.
Outside the building throughout the
session n strong force OF soldiers guarded
all the approaches patrols rode the
streets for several blocks around and still
other troops were stationed In small de-
tachments farther out. None of these,
however. had trouble with the crowds.
Some hundreds OF the curious gathered
in the streets as near 10 the chamber as
they were permitted to go. but In most
parts OF the city the ordinary course OF
business and traffic was uninterrupted.
From time to time, as President Huer-
Ia drove back through the lines of troops,
there was handclapping but nothing in
the way OF an ovation. The newspapers
published extras tonight carrying the
message

work Of bleeding their fatherlan nd, so
that when II may he debilitated and
impoverished II should submit 20 tho
dangers from abroad and without re-

The house endeavored to prevent
every effort OF the government II ag-
gressively invaded not only the prov

executives, in order 10 cooperate In
the Infamous purposes OF the rebels.
Having come 10 this extreme the gov

WASHINGTON. Nov. 20.-The Wash

the Huerta government Is slowly 'crum-
bling and disintegrating."
No positive steps have been taken by
the administration here within the last
few days TO compel a compliance with
the demand for the elimination OF Huerta
No preparat tons have been made for a
blockade OF Mexican ports.
Foreign interests generally will be pro-
tected by the United States. At Tux

ing the arrival Of the British cruisers.
The sending of the English ships is In
line with previous notification to the
United States and is regarded as nor
NAL move taken IN emergencies such as
exist at Tuxpam. 1t Is Intended to have
a SOLDERING effect upon those constitution
alist officers who, according to official re-
ports, have announced their hostility to
English interests.
The landing OF marines has not been
found necessary and no instructions to
that effect have been sent nor has there
been any request for such instructions
In the meantime Admiral Fletcher Will be
expected TO take whatever steps he deems
necessary to protect all foreign interests

Parleys With Rebels.

The parleys with the constitutionalsts
have been carried on in no formal way,
but merely for Informative purposes
The admnistrat ton, though not con-
generally in Mexico. is inclined to view
with some complacency the reprisals by
constltutionalists and federals on those
officers, or men who have been deserting
from side to side.
These salient facts were obtained from
those with whom President Wilson dis
cussed the Mexican situation today

The president made II clear that be-

RoosEVELT's SHOT AT BRYAN

The colonel not only took a shot
at President Wilson in his Newport,
r. l., speech, but he also aimed one
of his missiles at the secretary of
state, Hon. William Jennings Bryan.
Colonel Roosevelt said:
at seems to me incredible folly that
any of our people should wish to put
us in the position of China. and should
believe that by having worthy per-
sons put their names on scraps of
paper, or get together at banquets
and pass resolutions, we would be
able to substitute some patent remedy
like universal international arbitra-
tion for a navy. This is especially
true when We remember that this
country would not for one moment
permit any of these vital questions of
national honor and interest to be
submitted to arbitration. To advocate
universal arbitration treaties, the ar
bitration of questions of national in
terest and honor, is folly so great as
fairly to be wicked"
In the meanwhile the nations of the
earth are awakening to the TOlly, mad
ness and wickedness of war and are
focking to the enlightened proposal of
Mr.. Bryan which is the beginning of
the end of war and the ushering in of
universal peace" If it be crime
for one man to kill his neighbor, it is
a worse crime for a nation to engage
in the taking of human life when it
can so easily be avoided, and it is be-
coming repulsive to those who follow
in the footsteps of the prince of
Peace" and Mr.. Bryan is gathering
strength and followers in all lands.
1t is being received almost like the
coming of the millennium

and morality" We make a quotation:
ALBERT Sidney Johnston, the most
respondent of modern Cavaliers
from trig to toe type of the species
did not have a drop of southern blood
in his veins; Yankee on both sides OF
the house, though born in Kentucky
a little while after his father and
mother arrived there from Connect
cut. And the Cavaliers, who missed
their stirrups somehow, and got into
Yankee saddles? The woods were full
of them. If Custer was not a Cava-
lier, Rupert wassa Puritan. And Sher-
wood and WadSXorth and Kearney
and Mcpherson and their dashing
companions and followers! The one
typical Puritan soldier of the war,
be it never forgotten, was a southern,
not a northern, soldier: Stonewall
Jackson, of the Virginia line"
And so it may be said that Lincoln
the martyred president, the idol of
the north-did not, have a drop of
Yankee blood in his veins. He was
southern born, as were his ancestors
before him, and his early environ
ments and training were wholly south
ern. He sprang from the sturdy blood
denominated by the negro as poor
Buckra."
Colonel ]. p Sanderson, who drew
up the Florida ordinance of secession,
was Yankee born and Bred" having
come from Connecticut to Florida.
The civil strife came none too soon.
1t destroyed the bone of sectional con-
tention, and the Spanish-American
war healed up the old wounds and
made us a cemented nation, and our
struggles for achievements hereafter
will be national rather than sectional,
and with united aims and purposes we
must strive to be beacon light to the
nations.
We are glad to see the nation rest
less, and we want its motto to be:
Still pursuing-still achieving!"
