Huefta's resignation as President OF
Mexico undoubtedly advances the cause
Of peace In that country. 1t eliminates
the executive whose presence at the head
of affaifs has been the chief stumbling
block to any adjustment making for sta
bility of Mexican government. An I'M
placable animosity toward Huerta on the
part of the successful constitptionaltsts
has prevented any compromise. and now

government in the southern republic.
Huerta's elimination has been the
avowed desire OF the American ADMIN
President Wilson'S consistent policy ip
his relations with Mexico has been to
compass this object, and the resignation
filed yesterday at Mexico City must be
recognized as triumph of the Presi-
dents program.
Some doubt seems to be felt on the
score of Huertas future movements. The
natural assumption Is that he Is leaving
the country In Obedience to the dictates
of caution. But intimations are conveyed
In the dispatches that it is his desire to
remain In Mexico and put himself at the
head Of a lighting force, trusting to the
prestige of his name to rally a following
of sufficient size to hamper the constitu-
tionalist movement. This would hardly
seem to be probable. Had he intended
to take the field and resist the advance
Of Carranza and Villa he would probably
have done SO long ago. before the con-
stitutiorialist army had progressed to the
very threshold OF the capital.
The transfer of executive authority to
Carbajal does not signify his continuance
In office. He is obviously selected for the
position merely as a stopgap. probably
for the purpose Of maintaining order in
Mexico City until the arrival of the COM
stitutionalists. There Is no intimation In
the dispatches that he will be accepted
ty the insurgents as the future head OF
the government. Yet so far as his record
is known he might proveNto be the most
satisfactory man for the responsibility.
He has many qualities that seem to fit
him for the trying role of administration
pending the establishment Of a perma-
nent government at Mexico City.

signed as a means Of enabling him to
take the field. IL a step in advance for
the restoration OF order south OF the Rio
Grande. The United States has reason
to desire the speediest possible establish

peace basis. so that 1t can -1eoognize
such an authority and relinquish to it the

Huerta's Ending.
From the New York Times

President Hherta has resigned. His
resignation was accepted by the deputies,
and Francisco Carbajal rules as pro-
visional president in Mexico City The
revolutionary leader. Villa assumes that.
with the doffing of the presidency. Huerta
will again put on the general and will
take the field. But the Mexican revolu-
ton has been won-not in the riven re-
public, but at Niagara Falls. at Wash
ington. Woodrow Wilson is the restorer
horrors of war. but by virtue of reason
among nations. Whether the fallen die
tator now leaves the country or remains
to die fighting, or a captive. is Of little
moment in Mexican history. President
Carbajal Is a man Of peace. who would
offer little resistance to the forces of
Carranza. Powers are now in being in
Mexico. which. we believe, will efectually
prevent a long military occupation of the
capital.

hibtt further immigration until all

resolution adopted at the convention
OF the United Mine Workers of Amer

duced by the Roslyn, Wash, union.
Another resolution expressing SYM
pathy for the striking copper miners
IN Michigan was adopted without de-
bate. The abolition Of international

proposed in resolution introduced by
Duncan Mcdonald of Illinois. The
resolution was adopted and referred to
the international mining congress, Nc
Donald declared it the only method to
stop international wars He praised

were futile. He declared that the
burden OF carrying on wars, both in
money and life. fell on the laboring

ment to purchase coal for the battle
ships only from mines where miners
are employed eight hours a day and
