HUERTA MUST GO.

Predicts Downfall of "Usurper" Who
Right and Declared Himself Dicta-
tor"
There is but one cloud upon our hori-
Eon 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 it 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 in 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-
mated in the usurpation of victoriano
Huerta. who. after a brief attempt to
play the part of constitutional presi-
dent, has at last cast aside even the
pretense of legal right and declared
himself dictator. AS a consequence a
condition of affairs now exists in Mex
leo which has made 1t doubtful wheth-
er even the most elementary and fund

pie or of the citizens of other coun-

WANTS TREATIES RATIFIED.
Asserts That United States Leads In
Peace Negotiations.

Asserts That United States Leads In
Peace Negotiations.
The country, am thankful to say, is
at peace with all the world, and many
happy manifestations multiply about us
of a growing cordially and sense OF
community of interest among the ma
lions, foreshadowing an age of settled
peace and good will. More and more
readily each decade do the nations
manifest their willingness to bind them
selves by solemn treaty to the proc
esses of peace, the processes OF frank
ness and fair concession. So FAR the
United States has stood at the front OF
such negotiations. She will, earnest
ly hope and confidently believe, give
fresh proof of her sincere adherence to
the cause of international friendship
by ratifying the several treaties of ar
bitration awaiting renewal by the SEN
ate.
In addition to these it has been the
privilege of the department of state to
gain the assent, in principle, of no less
than thirty-one nations, representing
four-f1fths of the population of the
world. to the negotiation Of treaties by
which it shall be agreed that whenever
differences of interest or of policy arise
which cannot be resolved by the ordi-
nary processes of diplomacy they shall
be publicly analysed, discussed and re-
ported upon by a tribunal chosen by
the parties before either nation deter
,,,;,os. ;t., ,.o1rca of action
There is only one possible standard
by which to determine controversies
between the United States and other
nations, and that is compounded of
these two elements-our own honor
and our obligations to the peace of the
world. A test so compounded ought
easily to be made to govern both the
establishment of new treaty obliga-
tons and the Interpretation of those
already assumed.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S
MESSAGE TO CONGRESS
Is Short But Discusses ali of the Most
Important Subjects

Washington, d. Gin his message,
delivered at a joint session of the
houses of congress at the beginning of
the second session of the Sixty third
congress, President Wilson urged i'm
mediate currency legislation, devoted
considerable space to the needs of the
farmers and referred to the Mexican
crisis. The Sherman antitrust law, he
said. should be changed so that its
exact meaning would be clearer. The
president also urged the choice of
presidential nominees by the direct
vote of the people expressed at pri-
maries. The message in full is as fol
lows:
Gentlemen of the Congress-In pur-
suance of my constitutional duty to
"give to the congress information of
the state of the Union" | take the lib
erty of addressing you on several mat
tiers which ought, as it seems to me,
particularly to engage the attention of
your honorable body, as of all who
study the welfare and progress of the
nation.
shall ask your indulgence If / ven
ture to depart in some degree from the
usual custom of setting before you in
formal review the many matters which
have engaged the attention and called
for the action of the several depart
ments of the government or which
look to them for early treatment In
the future. because the list is long,
very long, and would suffer In the alb
breviation to which l should have to
subject it. / shall submit to you the
reports of the heads of several depart
ments in which these subjects are set
forth in careful details and beg that
they may receive the thoughtful atten-
ton of your committees and Of all
members of the congress who may
have the leisure to study them. Their
obvious Importance, as constituting the
very substance of the business of the
government, makes comment and en-
phasis on my part unnecessary.

A Wise Man

There was man in our town,
And he was wondrous wise;
He knew Just how and when and
where
To go and advertise.
He didn't seek the country fence
And cover it with signs,
To tempt the sturdy ruralite
By telling of his lines.
He didn't scatter dodgers round,
The kind that blow away
Before the folks have time to read
What he desired to say.
He went to see the editor
And bought lot of space.
His ad went to the women folks,
And that's the proper place.

There are about 81 pines native to

Paraguay has valuable forest re-
sources, the most important 81
which is quebraclo, particularly
rich in tannin.
Much of the cork used through

which harvests about, $4,000 tons a
year.
Germany is said to have an over
