the footsteps of Hidalgo-having been the
martyrs friend and disciple
Aloreos, like ElIdalgo was a man Of the
people, for he had been a mule-driver. and
had been forced by poverty to earn his daily
bread by labor.
While acting as servant in the College Of
San Nicolas, he was taught by the kind
hearted Hldalgo who was then rector. A
rigid Catholic, Morelos was likewise a burn
ing patrlot and his prodigious energy kept
the revolutionary movement going fiercely,
and Oh large scale, until 1915, when he was
captured.
The Spanish high priests not only con-
demned him, but are said to have tortured
him before he was shot
In the meanwhile the War of Indepen-
dence went on, from year to year, until, in
1921, Mexico had shaken off the yoke of
Spain.
Cortez had conquered the capital of the
8 country In 1921, exactly 800 years before.
General Augustin de Iturbide (pro-
nounced, It-urbi-dee) proposed to set up
limited monarchy in which Roman Cathoh-
cism should be the religion of the State. and
the clergy maintained in all their wealth and
priviledges.
On this "plan Of Iguala,' as it was called,
on 28th September, 1921.
In February, 1922 the first Mexican Con-
gress convened. Very soon, there was d
struggle between Iturbide, who wanted abso-
lutte power, and the Congress, which wanted
more democracy The soldiers and the priests
sided with Iturbide, and he was proclaimed
Emperor!
But the intense dissatisfaction. caused by
this defeat of all the republican hopes, led to
revolts against the usurper; and after vain
attempt to maintain himself, he was deposed
bv Congress, and sent out of the country.
Returning IN 1924, he was seized and shot,
as an outlaw and enemy the the State.
At an election held under the direction OF
Congress, and the provisional Government,
Guadalupe Victoria was elected President,
and in October. 1924, the Republic Of the
United States of Mexico was proclaimed.
The Roman Catholic religion was declared
to be the religion of the State, but the hor-
rible InquisItion had already been abolished,
and the accumulated loot of the Jesuits con
hscated.
In 1856 the suppression Of the Jesuits was
decreed; civil and religious corporations were
declared incapable of holding real estate; and
a number Of factious priests and friars were
banished.

lands and forbddlng all monoq,olies, except
patents.
The Spanish high priests started an insrr-
rection against the laws Of 1856 and T; and
bloody turmoil again ensued.
Benito Juarez, a full blooded Indian who
had risen to be chief justice, was installed as
President; and although he was forced by
the military opposition of the Spanish land
kings, and the Spanish high-priests to take
refuge behind the Notifications of Very Cruz
1883, his appeal to the common people,
promising them relief from their Spanish
oppressors, gave immense strength to his
cause.
The priests launched all sorts of verbal and
printed hell-fre against Juarez; and more
than seventy battles were fought on account
of the feroclous greed of these foreign 'holy
ones of God" leagued with the no less feroci-
Gus land kings
But in January, 1861, Juarez. after having
marched triumphantly into Mexico City.
Some of the Spanish high-priests who had
been run out of Mexico got the ear Of Pope
Plus TX, and Of the bigoted wife of Ma
poleon Ill, and of the Hapsburgs of Aus
tria-the same royal family that had owned
Mexico for 300 years
So it came to pass, that a French army,
and the banished high priests, and the Haps-
burg prince, Macmillan, came sailing across
the ocean, in 1864, to take possession of Mex
leo, reinstate the Spanish high-priests, re-
establish the Hapsburg monarchy, and re-
enslave the Indians for another 800 years
Juarez fled to the mountains, and bided his
time.
It came, after the end Of our Civil War,
when Uncle Sam polltel y said to Napoleon
III
'You have no business on this side of the
pond go back to your own side"
The French took ships for home, begging
the Hapsburg prince to 90 with them.
Overpersuaded by the Spanish high
priests, Macmillan remained; and, in the
course of few months. he was deserted by
the priests, betrayed by one Of his officers,
and shot by the Mexicans, under a law which
he had made agUi3St the MeDicanS
President Diaz followed Juarez, in due
course, and at first he was true to the revolu-
tionary principles for which he and Juarez
had fought
But later in life his love of power caused
him to assume the dictatorship; and when he
married young wife, who was a blind tool
of the priests, the land began to mourn.
1t was Diaz who granted such immense
concessions" to foreign individuals and cor
porations.
1t was Diaz who practically legalzed the
peonage system, and added to its horrors by
capturing Yaqui Indians, and selling them to
the Spanish land-kings of Yucatan.
Of course, many a poor white man was
kidnapped and taken away into servitude, he
being good enough Indian when he got to
Yucatan.
Finally, Madero rose against the Dictator,
and the people supported the revolt.
Diaz had to go. Madero was elected Presi-
dent. Huerta was his trusted military officer,
his confidential chief of the body guard.
