A GREAT DIPLOMATIC TRIUMPH.

Oregonian: Establishment of General Carranza fac
to ruler of Mexico recognized such by the United States
and by all the other great powers of the world hailed
diplomatic triumph for President Wilson That may
have appreciation of how great this diplomatic
brought Carranza to his present eminence
When American troops landed at Vera Cruz Carranza
talked of suspendng Huerta until their combined
forces had driven out the gringoes
When the PanAmerican conference at Niagara Falls
derook to mediate between Huera and Carranza and nv
ed Carranza to send delegates he rudey declined Mr. Will
had failed to eliminate Huerta, but Carranza without
the aid of Wilson and in defiance of mediation offers, did
eliminate him.
Last Mr. Wilson threatened Intervention in Mex
leo the warning factions did unite leader Car
rama ignored hp and went right fighting.
Five other American republics then joined the United
States in inviting the leaders of all Mexican factions
ference at which harmony should be restored Carranza
alone the leaders, refused to participate and
ference held Carranza went right defying Wilson
and fighting the other factions
Finally Carranza proved himself the only real power in
Mexico, and Mr.. Wilson recognized him. Mr.. Wilson had
offered help which declined; had offered advice which
spurned had INSTRUCTED and been pushed aside with
slight ceremony. Carranza having succeeded without his
help and in spite of his interference the president in
said "Oh very WE'LL since you refuse to recognize me,
insist recognizing you And the presidents flaerer
call that diplomatic triumph for him. To it looks very
much like diplomatic triumph for Carranza.
The president is welcome to all the satisfaction he get
out of it.

Thus it happened that while many wanted positions and
