THE PRESIDENT.

Henry Watterson in the Louisville
Courier-Journal: We know what he
(W1lSOn) is up against, but what is he
up to? Or, as sporting parlance, VIII
is so prominent in the current lingo
| would put it, whats his little game?
The other day these columns were
wondering-stillw we use the vulgate-
has he card up his sleeve" and,
| after all, is he las big fool as he
| looks" or as his words present him
to be?
Conceiving him a man of destiny
having genius for public atfairs-con
ceding his ability and intrepidity-
the Courier-J journal, before it had quite
worked off some justified spleen it had
stored against him, likened him to
Louis the Eleventh, a very great, but
rather sinister king, alike of king
don,s and men, who had saved France
as Woodrow Wilson seemed to be saw
ing the democratic party. Louis back
ed and filled good deal as Wilson has
But in the tinality he never let things
go at lose ends. We have reached a
point where free American, having
some experience in the workings Of
government and some knowledge Of
history, feels it a duty to speak out
in meeting and to say that the presi-
dent might reperuse that chapter of
history not without profit If the ad-
ministration fraZzles out of Mexico as
it has fraZZled out of Niagara Falls,
it will perpetrate a national blunder
and zeal its own doom.
One does not need to be devOtee
of war; to support and to have support
ed the arbitration treaties; earnestly
to favor e y that the authors of the
Hague tg'ilnal aim at, still to know
that the universal brotherhood OF man
is yet long way off; that liberty. fra
ternity and equality are the merest fig
ures of speech; that racial antagon-
isms exist all over the world, and that
the glib space-writers in the ten -penny
mbnthlies, who exploit muck -raking,
are the cheapest kind of cheap Johns in
politics and morals.
All that the president has said about
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1914-07-22

Mexico is repetition, or echo OF the
mock religion or uphft crowd; all that
he has done has gone awry and inVolv-
ed him deeper in mess originally OF
his own making
As matters are he is literally between
hell and the irons works. In case he
has card up his sleeve, we are in no
hurry to have him play it. But if, like
Gladstone, he thinks God put it there
and proposes to leave God to play it
for him, repeating as to Mexico the i'm
potent policy pursued as TO Egypt Goa
will have to help him, for the people
will have none OF it. Pray God it be
not Roosevelt, raised up by heaven
to scoulge a wicked generation, and
given the chance by Wilson, to play
the role of Disraeli
The way ahead is plain. We should
take military possession Of Mexico pre-
cisely as we took military possession
of Cuba. We should from the city OF
Mexico prescribe absolutely the fu-
ture government OF the country and
support it by force OF arms until all
danger is passed. We should arrange
TO take over lower California, Sonora
and so much OF northern Mexico as
will insure good ncighborhood upon
the border. Meanwhile we should re-
gard every Mexican politician the
servant of some aggregation OF organ
lied capital, every military chieftain
as a cut-throat and bandi. The work
to be done may be rough, but it should
be thorough, and if Mr.. Wilson does
not do it the country will get pres
ident who will.

THE STATE CONVENTION.

The republican state convention
Cne-cne that has been unfamiliar in
recent years-a harmonious conven-
ton where veterans of numerous hard
fought battles shook hands on the
fields they had charged and cheered
across, says the Times Republican,
and continuing, says:
"Where one time standpatters and
radical progressiyes met and mingled
like 'Yank' and Johnny at Gettys-
burg reunion. Harmony ruled. Good
feeling prevailed AS the republican
party stands in Iowa it is a fairly COM
plete and compact organization with
its former factions in touch with each
other and with common purpose
ahead OF all.
1.-THE platform is good one, fair
meeting ground for all republicans. 1t
contains some new policies and in
dorsements that should appeal to all
Iowa. The farmland banks, the good
roads policy, shorter ballot, labor
declarations, opposition to contract la
Dor in prisons and the establishment
OF prison farms as a substitute, pre-
servation of Iowa lakes, woman stuff
rage and not least declaration in
favor OF the right under the consti-
tuition, properly safeguarded to init
ate, adopt and review legislation.
Protection as cardinal principle,
the ratification of convention reform,
protest against disfranchisement of
voters merely because of color, equali-
cation of taxation and just and right
eous enforcement of the laws against
trusts are all properly part Of the re-
publican platform.
1.-The Endorsement OF voting system
that shall not disfranchise the travel
ing man and professional man whose
duties interfere with the free exercise
of his voting privilege is one that will
appeal to very large class of persons
and should appeal to the common
sense OF justice.
Altogether the platform is docu
ment worth study and support by re-
publicans and all other voters. The
Endorsement of the present liquor laws
is a recognition of the marvellous ad-
vance in temperance which has been
made under those laws. No state has
made larger progress toward temper
ance and the enforcement of temper
ance law or in the growth OF tenn
perance sentiment than the state OF
Iowa since the Cosson laws and Other
measures which have justified them
selves were enacted. And no weapon
in the hands of temperance is or is
likely to be for some time more effec
tive than the petition system which
has already made Iowa temperance
sentiment practically owner OF the
state.
He is hard to please who can moi
vote the platform and the state ticket
this year."

HuERTA RESIGNS.

General Huerta, the Mexican dictat-
or, has finally resigned the presidency
OF Mexico, and together with his fam
lily and near relatives, is now seeking
a new home under foreign protection.
Huerta's resignation was Immediately
accepted by the Mexican congress,
and his successor appointed in the per-
son of Senor Corbajal, minister OF for
eign affairs. The new appointment is
thought to be only temporary, howev-
err, as the constitutional party will
proceed to Mexico City and thereupon
General CarranZa will be appointed,
recognized and inaugurated.
The Nevada Representative says:
These incidents plainly mark the
success of the Carranzista revolution.
1t does not appear that outside infiu-
ence or pressure has had much to do
with the event. Huerta was refused
recognition by the United States and
told to get out by the Wilson admin
istration year ago last spring; but
he did not get out. Again last spring
the United States virtually went to
war with him and occupied with it's
forces his principal seaport; but again
he did not get out, and the weeks and
monthS of talkfest that ensued at Nj
agara Falls and elsewhere did not get
him out either. All of this time, how
ever, General Villa had been crowd.
ing the forces of the northern revOlu-
ton closer to- the capital city, and fl
nally Huerta came to recognize that ii
he did not get out quickly he probably
r. ~ ~ 70 rot NJ oil
and under the impulse thus acquired
he got out. His getting out justifies
to this, extent the Wilson policy OF
'watchful waiting, that is to say, if
President Wilson would wait long
enough for some particular Mexican
rascal to reach the end of his rope in
Mexico, then President Wilson might
see that particular Mexican eliminat-
ed without his own doing anything to
make good on his notification to that
Mexican of the latter's undesirable
ness; but that the Mexican situation
has actually been cleaned up, illum
mated. improved or materially benefit
ed by reason of the presidents object
ing to a particular rascal and then tol.
Grating him until the MeXicans them
selves got rid OF him there is no reas-
on to suspect. Mexico, without VIII
sons assistance, is rid of Huerta, who
murdered Madero and others, but it
still has Villa, who murdered Benton
and others, and the generally cut
throat condition of Mexico continues
without regard to American watchful
waiting or gentle attempts at moral
suasion." ]

governments and municipalities do-put
his security in a form to suit the in
vesting public. For the last hundred
years German land bonds have been
marketed at as low rate of interest
as state and provincial bonds.
We therefore urge our lawmakers
| to enact laws to provide for the or
Ganizatoin of farm land banks to oper-
ate under strict government super
vision and control. This government
doubt give American investors the
same confidence in the bonds Of our
farm mortgage banks that the German
investors have in the bonds of the
farm land banks of Germany.

United States navy, the torpedo boat
destroyer, O'Brien, was launched here
