Washington, d. c.. Feb. 2S.-We
no longer hear talk of the United
States intervening In Mexico. The
nation-and, for that matter, the
world--asquiesces in the Presidents
policy OF "watchful waiting" The
constitutionalists are slowly pushing
their lines nearer and nearer to the
City of Mexico. The days of the
murderous usurper are numbered.
The story of the final catastrophe
may fill the papers at any time. And
yet not a single soldier in blue has
crossed the Rio 'Grande. We are per-
hitting Mexicans to determine the
destiny OF Mexico t r.
a few months ago powerful inter-
ests on both sides OF the Atlantic were
intent on forcing this country's hand.
They clamored for Intervention and
their clamors were echoed in por-
tion of the American press. The
President was denounced as molly
coddle who was careless of the ma
tion's "honor" and INSCRIPTIONS
press agents famed popular passion
with stories of mythical "outrages
perpetrated on American residents in
Mexico. | called attention to this
propaganda ut the time and Indicated
the authors as clearly as possible. l
predicted that the President would
not stampede" and he has fully
verified the prophecy Through the
storm OF abuse and villification he
serenely held his course. and now
the whole world applauds his sagac-
ity and courage.
A New Diplomacy.
OF course, he did not play the
game according to the rules. That's
what amazed the European diplo-
mats. They could not understand
this Princeton schoolmaster' system.
Some of their countrymen made tho
same complaint concerning the mill
tary tactics of the young Napoleon
during the immortal Italian cam
paign. Napoleon's tactics led to VIC
tory and Wilson's policy Will lead 10
something bigger and finer than any
triumph ever achieved on tented
field-the enforcement OF a great
nations will without the firms of a
shot or the sacrifice of a soldier:
We were discussing these things
the,other night at the National Press
club--that mecca of the Washington
correspondent-and one OF the
newspa per boys told the story oil one
of the interesting developments OF
the Mexican situation

matte game according to the rules

Don't forget that for a moment
"As an example observe how ne
stood our esteemed friend. John Bull,
ON his head. When Porfirio- -Diaz was
about to give up the political ghost
and quit Mexico. he gave a practical
monopoly of the immensely valuanie
oil fields of Mexico to 5. Pearson x
Sons. Limited. of London.
N..Now, Pearson is the Rockefeller
of England and he intended to use
his Mexican oil monopoly TO provide
Johu Bulls navy with fuel oil. About
that time Winston Churchill. the
first Lord of admiralty announced
that the old csal burning type Of
war vessel was decidedly passe,
and must be superseded by the mod
srn up-to-the-minute oil-burnins
.dreadnaughts. This was an awful
swat on the solar plexus for Your
Uncle Kaiser Wilhelm. because While
he could build oil burning battle
ships he did not have the oil to keep

SCHOOLMASTER DIPLOMACY HAS WON
WORLDS PLAUD|TS SAYS HEATING
Inside Of Pearson OIL Grants and effectiveness Of Wilson's
Work is Told German and English MlIhaTIsn Affected
by Presidents Position.
Madero. Turns Down. Pearson.

Unfortunately for Churchill's
plans, Madero, who succeeded Diaz,
was an inQuisitive cuss. He had dis
tinguished Mexican attorneys exam
inc the grant to Pearson and they
reported that It was Illegal. and rec
commended its cancellation Madero
prepared to act on this suggestion,
but before he could do SO Huerta
was bribed to betray and assassinate
him. The question of who put up the
money for this piece of devils work
| will leave to your Imagination.
TO assist you in reaching a Just
conclusion, allow me to point out
that Huerta endeayored to force the
Mexican congress to confirm the
Pearson grant and when the members
refused threw them into jail and
caused number to be executed. FL
nally he dissolved congress and or
dered new election. With the aid
OF the army he returned n congress
which would do anything he sug-
gested.
Then Woodrow, the schoolmaster,
who knows nothing about the rules of
the diplomatic game, sat in and
asked for cards. First he delivered
his famous Mobile speech, in which
he warned the world that this coun-
try did not look with favor on monop-
olistic concessions in Latin-America.
After that he coolly notified England
that concessions made by Huerta
would not be recognized by the Unit
ed States. About that time the Ger
man Ambassador to Mexico develop
cd great friendship for John Lind,
the Presidents personal representa-
tive. He was so fond of him that he
used to travel all the way from the
City of Mexico to Vera Cruz to have
an opportunity to whisper n few
words in his ear.
John Bull is not as dense as
some people would have you believe.
He knows when he is up against
IT and he was up against it for fair
in Mexico. So he dropped out of the
game as gracefully as possible and
sent word to Uncle Sam that his boy.
Woodrow. might have the entire
Mexican jackpot, and his tJohn
Bull's) blessing.
And now to the kernal OF my
story: If Woodrow, the schoolmaster
had not spoiled this little game.
Pearson would have supplied Huerta
with all the funds he needed and the
murderer of Madero could not have
been driven from power unless
Uncle Sam sent an army across the
Rio Grande Incidentally England
would have had monopoly of the
greatest oil fields in the world and
Kaiser Wilhelm would have had an
incurable attack Of insomnia. As it
is. Huerta is slowly starving to death,
the Teuton and the Yankee are the
good friends God intended they
should be, and those oil fields may
produce the millions needed to put
constitutional government on its fl
nancial legs in Mexico.
mo tho schoolmaster does not
know a thing about the rules. but he
sure can play the game"
