They have brought us TO impotence abroad

They have accustomed us to see the highest

for reasons OF partisan politics. They nave
dulled the moral sense Of the people. They
have taught us that peace, the peace OF
cowardiCe and dishonor and Indifference to
the welfare Of others, IL to be put above
righteousness, above the stern and unflinch-
Ing performance OF duty, whether the duty
is pleasant or unpleasant
Yet I'm Mexico they have failed even to
secure the peace which they thus sought
and they have failed in spite of the most
ample warning to prepare in any real tash-
ion to meet the crisis which their own
policv invited They have taught us 10 put
