WE MIGHT HAVE BEEN DEAD
NOW, HAD PLAN WORK ED


Under this plan" all Americans
in FIVE states were to he slaughtered
Those Of New Mexico along with the
citizens of Texas, Arizona, and Cali.
fornia, were booked for the massacre
There is nothing to show that any or
ganization under this plan" ever de-
veloped in FL Paso.
The plan" was adopted at San Di-
ego, Texas, January 6, 1915, and pro-
vides for the execution of all male
Americans over 10 years of age; as
serts that no quarter shall be shown
them when made prisoners and that
in order to redeem" the states of
California, Arizona, New Mexico, Col
orado and Texas from the Yankees -
the negroes are to be appealed to; also
the indians and Japanese.
After these five states shall have
been conquered" the "plan" says the
victors will aid the negroes to take
five southern states and set up re-
public of their own.
The essential paragraphs in the plan
are as follows:
81. On the goth day of February,
1915. at 2 o'clock in the morning, we
will rise in arms against the govern
ment and country of the United States
and North America, one as all and all
as one, proclaiming the liberty of the
individuals of the black race and it's
independence of Yankee tyranny, which
has held US in iniquitous slavery since
remote times; and at the same time
and in the same manner we will pro-
claim the independence and segrega-
tion of the states bordering on the
Mexican nation, which are: Texas,
New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado and
upper California, of which states the
republic of Mexico was robbed in n
most perfidious manner by North
American Imperialism.
"2. In order to render the forego-
ing clause effective the necessary army
corps will be formed under the imme-
date command of military leaders
named by the supreme revolutionary
congress of San Diego, Texas, which
shall have full power to designate a
supreme chief who shall be at the head
of said army.
"3. Each one of the chiefs will do
his utmost, by whatever means possi-
BILE, to get possession of the arms and
funds of the cities which he had be-
forehand been designated to capture in
order that our cause may be provided
with resources to continue the fight
with better success, the said leaders
each being required to render an ac-
count Of everything to his superiors, in
order that the latter may dispose of
IL in the proper manner.
-. The leader who may take city
must Immediately name and appoint
municipal authorities.
"5. II is strictly forbidden to hold
prisoners, either special prisoners
(civilians) or soldiers; and the only
time that should be spent in dealing
with them is that which is absolutely
necessary to demand funds (loans) of
them; and whether these demands be
successful or not they shall be shot
Immediately without any pretext.
81. Every North American over lG
years of age shall be put to death, and
only the aged men, the women and
children shall be respected. And on
no account shall the traitors to our
race be respected or spared.
"S. The Apaches of Arizona, as
well as the indians (red skins) of the
territory shall be given every guar
antee, and their lands which have been
taken from them shall be returned N
them, TO the end that they may assist
US in the cause which we defend.
40. The movement having gather
ed force. and once having possessed
ourselves of the states above alluded
to. we shall proclaim them all indie
pendent, later requesting, if il be
thought expedient, annexation TO Mex
leo without concerning ourselves at
that time about the form of govern
ment which may control the destinies
of the common mother country.
IL. When we shall have obtained
independence for the negroes we shall
grant them "A banner which they them
selves shall be permitted to select, and
we shall aid them in obtaining six
states of the American union, which
states border upon those already men
toned, and they may from these six
states form republic and they may
therefore be independent.
"12. None of the leaders shall have
power to make terms with the enemy
without first communicating with the
superior officers of the army, bearing
in mind that this is a war withou'
quarter; nor shall any leader enroll in
his ranks any stranger unless said
stranger belongs TO the Latin the ne
gro or the Japanese race.
"l5. II is understood among those
who may follow this movement that
we will carry AZ a singing voice the
independence of the negroes, placing
obligations upon both races, and that
on no account shall we accept aid,
either moral or pecuniary. from the
government of Mexico, and it need not
consider itself under any obligations
in this, our movement"
