1 Madero was the antithesis of
Diaz. He stood for the many
against the few. He wanted
| Mexico for the Mexicans and not
for foreign or domestic Conces-
sionaiers.
When Big Business induced
Huerta to betray Madero it
thought it had found a second
Diaz, but Wilson'S refusal to rec
ogpize the assassin dictator spoil
ed it's plans.
BIG BUSINESS SCHEMING
Now Big Business realizes that
Huerta's downfall is a matter of
days or weeks and through it's
press agents and orators it is en-
deavorirg to shape events so it
may select his successor or, fail
ing that, establish an American
protectorate over Mexico.
Big Business does not want
Carranza as President of Mexico,
because Carranza has announced
that he will follow in the foot
STEPS Of Madero. Therefore,
Big Business is opposed to any al
lance between this country and
Carranza, and is insisting that
we must make war on both the
COnstitutionalists and the follow
ers Of General Huerta. This, of
course, means an attempt to con-
quer Mexico and to Subjugate its
Is, 900, 900 of people.
Such a task would require half
million Of men, a billion of
money, and years of time. AS
Senator Borah declared the other
day: THAT would be a moral
and political crime.
If on the other hand we can
confipe our operations to a pros
ecution of war on Huerta our
task will be greatly simplified.
We can overthrow the dictator,
arrange for an election in Mexico,
recognize the new President and
withdraw our forces.
Undoubtedly President Wilson
has something like this in mind,
and he will execute it if he is not
interfered with.
But the Tories, egged on by
Big Business, are doing every
thing in their power to drive Car
rama and Villa into the arms of
Huerta.
Many of the Constitutionalist
leaders have confidence in Wilson
and Bryan and believe implicitly
in their good intentions, but 9th
ers are suspicious and point to the
speeches which are being deliv-
cred every day by the Tories and
to the editorials which are con-
stantly appearing in the newspa-
pers controlled by Big Business
as convincing evidence of our hy-
pocracy.
Senator Borah expressed the
views Of these Doubling Thom-
ases" when he said on the floor
of the Senate the other day:
''The reason why the United
States is unpopular and suspect
ed is because, while protesting
friendliness to these smaller ma
.tions fMexico and other Latin
American countries) we are in
subtle and devious encroaching
upon and ingratiating ourselves
into their affairs, with the ulti-
mate object, as the world believes
of taking possession of their SOW
ereignty."
If the leaders of the Constitu-
Itionalists can he nerSraded that
Cheyenne record., 1914-04-30

son and Bryan can convince them
that we are sincere in our pro-
fession, they will assail the die
tator from the north while our
boys hold. Vera Cruz or march on
the City of Mexico from the east.
In such a crisis no loyal Amer
lean will utter a word or commit
an act which will add to the per-
plexities of the Administration or
increase the number of those who
will face our army in the field.
The Senator or editor who does
anything calculated to weaken
the Constitutionalsts' faith in the
Presidents plighted word is
''giving aid and comfort" to
Huerta to as great an extent as
if he supplied our enemy with
arms, ammunition and money,
and he is therefore guilty of trea-
son to the Republic.
In this connection a statement
credited to General Villa is inter-
esting and encouraging:
why" said Villa, all Europe
would laugh at US if we went to
war with the United States.
They would say that little drunk
ard Huerta has drawn them into
a tangle at last"
Which indicates that Villa may
have been a bandit but he is not
a fool. .......
Friday May the 9Th is GOOD
ROADS DAY" in Colorado. AL
ready preparations are being
made in many parts of the state
for the celebration of this day,
and Governor AMMONS by ofic-
ial proclamation has urged the
citizens of Colorado to devote
that day to work on the roads.
Some of the suggestions for the
observance of the day are that
citizens generally turn out and
see that their roads are put in
better shape by means Of drag
ging and by a general cleaning
up of rights of way. For the
tourists who will visit the state it
is urged that Colorado people, es-
pecially those residing in the
mountain districts devote some
time on Good Roads Day" to
looking after campaign sites. the
marking of roads and the post
ing of signs wherever necessary.
According to the statutes school
teachers are required to devote a
certain amount Of time on this
day to telling their scholars Of
the benefits of good roads, and
they must later report to the
State Highway Commissioner
what has been done in this re-
ga'd.
In many of the counties Of the
state those committees having in
charge the petitions for the ini-
tiation of the half mill levy for
good road purposes in the state,
plan to make special efforts on
May 8 to secure the requisite
number of signatures reuirqed in
their respective localities. 1t is
hoped to secure in each county in
the state the signatures of at
least ten per cent of the voters
to these petitions. If this is done
the petitions when filed will
contain many more names than
the law actually requires. 1t is

fetal educational position. In the
first place, he should try to meet the
immediate demands of the hour by
working whole-heartedly with the or
ganization and conditions as he finds
them. In the second place, he should
endcavor from his experience and OBJ
servations to assist in the formulation
Of a policy Of development which will
be more conducive to the stability,
growth, and efficiency of the public
school system. The following outline
of organization is respectfully pre-
scnted for the criticism of the friends
OF education. The limits Of this re-
port will not allow the amplification
OF the topics.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES.
l.. A State common school system
should be democratic. 1t should be
responsive to the deliberately express
cd will Of the people.
=. Since the administration and
supervision Of Il school system require
certain abilities and training, the law
should give the people reliable
method OF selecting their school Off
cials. They should not be limited in
their choice to men who seek posi-
tons. but through their authorized
agents should be allowed the privi-
lcgc Of seeking the man who will per-
form the duties Of his Office most etii-
cicntly.
>. Since the education OF a child
and the development Of Il school are
processes which require several years
for their completion, the school sys-
tenn should possess Il stability which
would enable its officers to make
plans which they may hope to execute.
4. The State, as Il whole, should
guarantee an educational opportunity
to all her children, regardless OF the
wealth or poverty OF the particular
county or district in which they live
!. The State Board Of Education.
The administration OF the State COM
mon school system should be vested
in Il state Board Of Education which
should be continuing body. 1t
should, perhaps, be composed OF the
Governor the Chairman of the Com
mittcc on Education in the Senate, the
Chairman of the Committee on Edu-
cation IN the iiouse as cN-oliicio mem
