 The paper expresses faith in the declaration of President Wilson that the action taken by the United States government is against Huerta alone Furthermore, it declines to believe that the United States is pursuing political conuuest.

 Happy Solution.

Paris, April 26.-The acceptance by President Wilson of the tender of the good offices of the presidents of Brazil, Argentina and Chile in an endeavor to bring about an amicable settlement of the Mexican crisis is hailed by the Temps as offering a happy solution for the United States of a false situation which is full of obscurity and compli- cations.
 The Temps says the European pow CTS cannot but applaud the entry on the scene of the three South American governments, because any proposal of collective mediation by Europe would raise delicate questions and take on the character of intervention inha: . monious with the Monroe doctrine

CARDINAL GIBBONS SPEAKS nm
LIQUOR QUESTION.

N. Y. Freeman Quotes Cardinal
MY attitude toward the LIQUOR
question has not changed, not with
standing reports to the contrary. I
was quoted last week as having said
that I favored the abolition Of
saloons. That statement is onlv
partly true. I am too old now to
change my attitude on a subject q.
important as this, and what said
last week applied only to Charles
county, Maryland, where the saloons
are not conducted in a satisfactory
manner. declared hoped the sa-
looms of that county would be abol-
ished, and still hope so.
While am strong advocate Of
temperance, am certain that nrohi-
oition can never be enforced. and If
IT should be. it will make hypocrites
and violators of the law. It will also
cause the manufacture of illicit
whiskey. which is not a good thing.
since it will replace good product.
OF It's kind, with bad product. It
Will also rob the government Of a
legitimate tax, and a very consider
able one. Prohibition cannot be en-
forced in any Christian country.
Il do believe in local option. and
where the saloons are menace to
the community they should be abol-
ished. That is why advocate the
adjustment Of the saloons in Char
les county. But I would not advocate
the same idea for the entire country.
I think 1t would be detrimental
rather than a help to the temperance
cause"

the bill will be law early in June. 1t
