1t would seem that the only
terms now that would be accepta-
BILE to the United States are the
same that the President dictated at
the beginning of the present un-
pleasantness in Mexico: the uncon-
ditional salute to the American flag
as an apology from the Provincial
Mexican Government for the insults
to the dignity of the United States.
And it would further seem that
Huerta should be made to recon-
pense the American government
for the expenses involved in the
seizure Ct Vera Cruz. He cannot
give back the lives of the American
boys, that were sacrificed because
OF his Sly bbornness. If he was 90
ing to accept the terms, why the
necessity for the fight at Vera Cruz?
If the South American and Eu-
ropean nations were to ten Ter their
good offices, why not before the
landing of American marines at
Vera Cruz as we'll as after blood
was shed and hearts were broken?
Perhaps Huertaa is again playing
for time and delaying the inevita-
bic. America does not want war
We prefer peace. But if the war is
to come, why delay? The sooner it
is over with the better for all con-
cerned. Would the illumination of
Huerta solve the difficulty? Is Car
ranzn, is Villa, is any man who has
yet shown himself in Mexico more
! worthy or more capable of admins
tering the affairs of government in
the Mexican republic than Huerta?
