you that this person merits the re-

sideration of the army of the North

merits this thru being n man of high

have the anomaly of two Presidents,

complete division of the two armies

and their forces to dominate the mil

To His EXcellency. Woodrow Will
son, President of the United States.
Honorable President:
| Judge it absolutely necessary for
the good of the country and the
prosperity of the Mexican republic
to state to you categorically and en-
phatically that do not aspire in any
way to assume the presidency of my
country; that althO have been fight
ing for some years upon the field of
battle it is not my purpose to inn
pose my will upon the nation nor to
establish a dictatorship which shall
imperial the legitimate rights of the
Mexicans; that my only desire, up to
now, has been to secure the liberty,
peace and welfare OF the people; that
my ambition and zeal has been only
to free them of abuses and tyrannies,
so that the rights of the people shall
be respected and they can exercise
their sovereignty free from dicta-
ton.
Undoubtedly you know that the
Government convention held in the
city Of Mexico designated as provis-
iOnal president Senior Francisco La
gos Chazaro, but desiring that the
civil war in my country shall cease
as soon as possible, find myself in
a position to declare to you that, af-
ter having overcome many Difficult
ties, the factions of the South and
of the North have now been brought
definitely into accord; that is tire
army of liberation under direct com
mand Of Gen. Emiliano Zapata and
the army of tn eNorth, which is UNI

Cream of tartar, derived from grapes,
is used in Royal Baking Powder because
il is the best and most healthful ingredient
known for the purpose.
Phosphate and alum, which are de-
rived from mineral sources, are used in
some baking powders instead of cream of
tartar, because they are cheaper.
If you have been induced to use baking
powders made from alum or phosphate,
use Royal Baking Powder instead. You
will be pleased with the results and the
difference in the quality of the food.
