The Nome daily nugget., 1913-11-11

It looks very much as if the wsrt on the Mexican political situation was about to undergo an operation and that all the good people who have been worrying about the disfgurement to tho fair face of the land of 4fontezuma can quit bothering for n while and take things easy
 It is said that Huerta has decided to heed the advice of the United States backed by the powers of iSu- rope and not claim that he is the duly elected president of the southern re- public.
 This will make quite a difference In the sitaution no doubt if Huerta suc- ceeds in putting this latest scheme over and the government of the United States allows him to continue to oc- cupy the chair of the chief magistrate of the country he will begin to think that we arc too easy. Huerta has made promises to us before ana ne has kept them just long enough to baik some contemplated move on the part of the United States. Now he finds that President Wilson means business and he is trying another biuft. If Huerta was merly toying with our amateur state department he might get away with 1t. The state department has swallowed the Huertaistic dope bills 90 long that It has become a habit and 1t needs Q pill or two every day to keep it feeling right. But just now there Is a gentleman running the Mexican sideshow who is not in the habit of using dope. either political or diplomatic. and 1t is very doubtful IT the Mexican poisoner can drop a pill into MT. Wilson's glass of water and get away with 1t. It's a ten to one shot that when the president saw the bloodstained hand of the Mexican ns- sassin reaching over the table with this latest poison powder labeled another election in three months" he knew per- fectly we'll what was going to happen and after Huerta has dropped the dope into the glass Mir. Wilson will throw the whole thing out of the window and 20 get another glass of water.
 Huerta has played O remarkably clever hand and has sat behind a bust ed straight and raised the ante time after time and biuffed the United States into laying down three aces. Now President Wilson has drawn to A flush md filled and he isn't going to lay down until his last chip Is on the table.
 Wilson was a boy oncc himself and had warts on his fingers and he knows that even when the growth is burned off it may come back again.
 It seemd not long ago when an elec. ton was ordered in Mexico as if the wart was burned of. But pshaw. what's tho use? There's the same old wart in the same old place and 1t isn't going to do a bit of sood to burn st of again with the same old hold af- other election caustic."
 President Wilson knows that just as well ns he knows how hard 1t was to get the warts of the boyhood days on of his fingers. He also knows that there is but one way to get rid of either e political wart or one of the ordinary toad variety. and that fs to cut 1t out at the root And that is just exactly what win be done with the present growth on the body polite of Mexico. Mir. Wilson will see to it that the thing is removed by the knife and he will be sure that he cuts deep enough to. get root and all so that in the future any country that shakes hands with Mexico need not fear the hidden roughness on her fingers.
 Senor Huerta may be able to dope some of the people but he is not going 10 dope one Woodrow Wilson. He may be able to scrub up his hands and clean the blood oft and he may De able to ret the wart on of Msxico or cover 1t up with grease paint 70 that 1t will not show. but he will not fool Mir. woodrow Wilson and 1t l. safs te say that if the wart is not cut out q the Mexican hand h pretty auic'E tins
