CARRANZA.

A majority Of the writers on the
Mexican situation have emphasized
the inefficiency of General Villa as
man to handle Mexican affairs, but
they have been more lenient with
General Carranza. Raymond G. Car
roll, who recently wrote of the rebel
leaders in series of special articles
devoted greater portion of his attack
to the bandit chief" as Villa is
called
Edward /. Bell, writing in the Out
look, attempts to show that Carranza
perhaps the best educated of the
various leaders is equally guilty of
the political shame of Mexico" Mr..
Bell is an American who has lived
many years in Mexico. He was the
editor and publisher of the "La Prem
sa" and the "Daily Mexican" of Mex
icd City.
Mr. Bell insists first of all that the
administration is in possession of all
the facts relative to the true condi-
tions in the republic to the south.
He declares further, as Mr.. Carroll
reported, that Mr.. Bryan was in pos
session of the facts long before hn ~
signed from the cabinet. There seems
to be little doubt now that the in
creasing complexities of the Mexican
situation had a part in determining
fho e r
state.
Mr.. Bell, by his residence in Mex
leo City has a good chance to
study Carranza. His opinion of him
is contained in the following para
graph:
1.-THE unnamabe outrages commit
ted by him and his aides on the Mex
leans have been ignored We have
stood calmly by as our own nationals
have been caught in the cogs of his
machinery and ground up. The gov
ernment of the United States has
sent men to counsel him; our borders
have been held open that he might
receive from us munitions of war.
The government might have known
If it had been willing to accept the
facts, that the money he rendered in
payment was the product of murder
and robbery; that it was realized by
the sale of our own citizens property
wrested from his groaning country
men-cattle, corn, cotton, coffee and
all marketable goods. He stripped
the country bare of DEMONSTRATING
things and sent them to our ports
for cash, while hundreds of thousands
of Mexicans ate roots and hid from
the rapacity of his officers and men.
Under his leadership churches and
educational institutions have been
desecrated and destroyed.
In the above Carranza is displayed
in his true light. We say in his
true light, only the half has not been
told. Huerta was run out Of the
country for no greater crimes than
have been committed under Carranza.
There are some queer proceedings
which the public is at loss to under
stand. Since Mr.. Bell wrote the
above, President Wilson has recog-
nized Carranza and just what prompt
ed it we are at a loss to understand.
