promised again in the Baltimore Platform of
1912, and n0q0 opposed By the mem aChO 10e4e
elected on that platform.
Why this change of front?
Wilson and Bryan knew that our ship
monopoly was insolently claiming the right
to the indirect subsidy of being exempt from
the Canal tolls
Wilson and Bryan knew that promise to
grant the ship-subsidy thieves this monopoly
in the Canal had been put into the Demo
cratic Platform. Bayan Sorved on the sub
committee 2chjch qcrote 1t, and has attention
qc0S d102rn to this ve1y plank
Yet, at the eleventh hour, something hap
pens that the public knows nothing about.
At the eleventh hour. the Democratic admin
istration finds itself unable to give the hogs
of Special Privilege all that was promised
them at Baltimore.
They were promised perpetual Money
Trust, and the goods haze been delivered.
They were promised perpetual Manufac-
turer's Trust, and the goods hare been
dezrcrcd.
They we're promised virtual gift Of our
Panama Canal, and the goods cannot be
deErc7rd.
WHY?
Foreign nations showed their teeth on this
proposition to violate a solemn Treaty, and
to surrender to the American swine Of Special
Privilege a public utility which we pledged
our honor to allow all merchant vessels to use
on eQua5 terms.
Because of this back tracking in regard to
fhe Canal, the Democratic leaders have been
driven apart. A mighty feud has sprung up
inside the party. The most powerful of
Democratic capitalists are at war with the
administration. On this questionable Shy
lock OF Special Privilege demanding it's utter
most pound of hesh-the nabobs who financed
The Presidential campaign and without whose
aid neither Wilson nor Bryan can expect to
be elected in 1916, are up In arms against the
Democratic leaders; and through such news
papers as those of Mr. Hearst are dividing
The Democratic voters into fractional camps.
In addition to all this, bitter and destruc-
tive war has been begun between Capital and
Labor Colorado is virtually in a State of
Civil War. Men have been butchered by the
Rockefeller thugs: women have been pitt
lessly shot down by the hirelings Of the Fuel
Trust; children, even have been slaughtered
by the remOrseless Rockefeller barbarians
who are furnished by the Burns "Detective"
Agency and the Ascher "Detective" Agency,
for the purpose of using brute force to sup
press dissatisfied Labor
Therefore, what?
President Wilson and his Dove-of-Peace
Secretary have resorted to the old, old trick
of king-craft and haze StGrtcd q foreign q0dr
to drd1c off attention from domestic noisg0v-
er72n2cnt.
The Snday-school Aub-dub about Broth
erly Love is all thrown aside. The battle
ships ''Good-will," and Friendship" are dry
docIIed.
All that spccious slobber-gosh about not
fighting until sixteen months after we become
angry enough to fight, is sent to keep COM
pany with the slobbcr- gosh about Free Silver,
Bimetalism, Equal Rights to all and Special
Privilemn TO none

guns, telling his beloved readers that ''right-

And now almost before the ink is dry ON
the Pharisee's sermon, we have the dead men
strewn about the streets of Vera Cruz, upon a
question Of etiquette
We backed up Admiral Mayo in his
unrghteous and arrogant demand for q salute
to him; for while of course he used the word
"fag' he meant the word "Mayo"
If he allowed his man of-war to run short
of fuel, he's q poor commander.
IF he did not acquant himself with actual
conditions on a hostile shore, he's q poor COM
naander.
If he did not know that, under the cir
cumstances, he was partly to blame for what
happened, and that a prompt and uncondl-
tional apology met all of the legal require
ments of the case, he's poor commander.
My countrymen, this war has been preclpl-
tated for reasons that do not appear on the
surface.
Before the dying men at Vera Cruz had
ceased to groan, Congress rushed bill
through to increase your standing army to
100000 men!
Militarism needed boost, and militarism
has got it.
Special Privilege needed cessation of war
upon ITSELF and Special Privilege has got it.
A rent Democratic party needed something
to drown the voice of discord, and the Demo
cratic party has got it.
The Administration needed something that
would divert public attention from the Civil
War in this country and the Administration
has got it.
Where all this will end, no man can tell
Sometimes it happens that those who bring
on a war, are those who are most bitterly dis
appointed by the results.
It happened SO with President James X.
Polk, who rushed our Government into the
Mexican War Of the Forties.
Historian Woodrow Wilson condemns that
war in his voluminous story Of the American
People,
Alexander II, Stephens was one of the long
headed statesmen who opposed the war and
did all in his power to prevent it,
More than that: Mr.. Stephens stood up IN
Congress At TIE TIME and said, in par
liamentary phrase, that the President of the
United States HAD LIED, about the real
cause Of the q0ar.
Historian Woodrow Wilson virtually
endorsed, long after the war, what Mr. Ste
phens stated publicly, before the armies had
clashed in battle.
l will not initiate Mr.. Stephens, and declare
that the President has concealed the true
cause of the war.
But from the depths of my heart deplore
his course, not only because [ hate unnecessary
war In principle, but because [ know that the
final consequences of this conflict will be
vastly more harmful to the general good of
our own country, than it can possibly be to
Mexico.

Why Have We Gone TO War with Mexico?

administration.
We are asked to believe that we stationed
our battle-ships at Tampico and Vera Cruz
for benevolent purposes.
We are asked to believe that these battle
ships had to depend upon MeScico for fuel.
We are asked to believe that our wide
awake naval officers did not know that State
of war; with martial law, existed at those
ports.
We are asked to believe that those naval
officers did not anticipate any complication
when they sent ashore a force of marines, IN

Suppose England had landed uniformed
troops in Chicago, or in New York during our
Civil War, after that dispute about Mason
and Slidell?
Suppose the King of Prussia had landed
uniformed troops at Savannah, or New
Orleans, without having asked our CONSENT
There would have been trouble, and yoW

Admiral Mayo says his launch got out of
fuel, and that he sent marines ashore to buy
some from the Mexican supporters Of Huerta.
What reasonable expectation did Admiral
Mayo have that the Huerta supporters would
lend aid to the hostile battle-ships of this
Government?
Those marines were violating Martial Law:
they were naturally arrested-not shot down
as our quick militia shoot down their fellow
citizens in Georgia, or in West Virginia, or
in Colorado and Michigan.
The Mexicans merely arrested the y. S.
marines, without doinn them any violence
whatever. A superior officer sees the squad
under arrest and stops the whole business.
In a very short while, the q. S. marines are
released, and an apology made to Admiral
Mayo.
This apology was not only made by the
local officers of the Mexican troops at Tam
pico, but is repeated by General Huerta him
self.
But Admiral Mayo refused to be satisfied
He demanded that the Mexicans fire salute
to the American flag.

battleship illegally took the Confederate Com

as earnestly as | hope that he will yet be

ACCIDENT TO CITY OF ANNAPOLIS
Nsmsssks Breaks Dswn in The Bay
A Fine Steamer.

The handsome steamer City Of Anna
( polls, Of the Chesapeake Steamship
Company, which left Baltimore early
last night for West Point, Virginia,
/ broke down IN the Bay some distance
10 the channel below SparrOws Point
and opposite Curtis Bay.
The first news of the mishap was
sent by wireless f, ON Captain Moon,
Of the vessel, to Mr.. Key Compton,
president of the steamship company.
In the meantime information reached
the city that the accident TO the City
of Annapolis was due to a break IN the
hiRn-pressute cylinder and that no
damage OF any consequence bad been
done to the vessel
Assurances were also given that all
of the passengers were safe, that they
were n no danger and that in all like
lihooj the City of Annapolis would con-
tinue to her destination as soon as the
necessary repairs had been made
The fact that the tug Southern did
not put into Sparrows Point was con-
strued TO mean that the damage 60 the
steamer could be repaired without any
assistance from the shipyard at the
Maryland Steel Company
IL is exactly 277 feet and three inches
over oil, with a beam over guard Of SO
feet and 43 foot beam over water
line. The ship is driven by triple-ex.
pansion engine and Is capable of max.
ing over rs knots an hour. In general
appearance the boat conforms to the
construction of the other vessels in
service on the line
The launching Of the City Of Annapo-
lis, with the City OF Richmond, was
witnessed by Mayor Preston and the
Mayor OF Richmond from the City Of
Baltimore. which ran aground while
the ceremonies we're in progress.
There was considerable excitement
aboard the vessel for time, but when
it was found that there was no danger
the fe Irs Of those on board were quiet
ed. The vessel WIS later noated with
ltte damage.
Miss Ursula Harrison, daughter Of
Fairfax Harrison, president OF the Chi
cag0, Indianapolis and Louisville Rail
road. was sponsor for the ship
