power, hostile to our country, might
I do, us irreparable damage
1t will take foresight, intelligence
and self-sacrifice on the part of our
statesmen and our people to solve
these problems in the right way now
so as to ward off danger in the fu-
ture President Wilson's policies have
been without plan or purpose; he has
not looked beyond tomorrow; ne has
had no objects aside from momentary
political profit at home, and possibly
the qualification of personal spite to-
wards or personal favoritism for, some
particular bandit. His attitude has
shifted hither and thither. At an enor-
nous expense to all that is good and
! stable in Mexico and at a terrible cost
of American lives, property and pres
! tige he has lifted Carranza into power
through the maneuvering OF an ABB
! G convention he placed him upon his
shally pedestal and today by the ex-
/ pedient of another LOU convention
he is trying to prop and bolster the
tottering structive. Yet at this very
time, Carranza's government, which is
wholly the child of President Wilson's
diplomacy, turns against us and there
same man Carranza would take II, by
the aid of such loans, as it has been
vaguely limited that the present ad-
ministration is trying to secure for

marine began to operate off the coast

of this country becoming involved in
further international entanglements
and their attitude stiffened consider

attitude of the Carranza agents is a
sinister omen of the future danger
that turks in Mr.. Wilson'S diplomacy.
Some day this diplomacy will be paid

In closing Col. Roosevelt said:
remember when, to my good fortune,
l made Governor of the Territory of
of Arizona the man who is now run
ming for Senator, Mr.. Kibbey. (Pro-
longed applause.)
And l just want to tell you little
ancedote about Mr.. Kibbey. Mind you,
1 appointed him as Governor. He was
my friend. Whenever / could per
suade him that the course l was fol-
lowing was the right course, he would
stand straight by me. If I could not
persuade, him then he would go
against me. (Laughter)
l remember well at the time OF the
statehood fight - Mr.. Heard you
doubtless remember that too. owe

some questio whether we could get
through-we had four territories

had been raised, who were applying
for Statehood, Oklahoma, Indian Ter
