AN IMIi:i!ITA( I
In tho minds of Kepnhllcan poli
ticians and editors there is consid
erable confusion with respect to
modern American-Mexican history.
Some or tin -in seem to think Hint die
Mexican problem Is the minion of
tile Democratic administration, that
it is a "Wilson problem." The truth
is It Is America's problem, and II was
as much a Taft problem as it has
been a Wilson problem, anil In the
event (,r .Mr. Hughes' eleclioli II
would be a Hughes problem. It Is
vorp likely that as Mr. Wilson has
handled the problem much as Mr.
Tart did. Mr. Hughes' method of
handling It would not ilirrer materi
ally from that of Mr. Wilson.
Let us take a glance at the record.
Mr. Taft became president on March
4, I It'll!. Within twenty months af
ter Mr. Taft's inauguration, trouble
In serious form broke out in Mexico,
and during all of tho balance of his
administration, the trouble contin
ued.
On November 8, 11110, there was
rioting In Mexico City. The Ameri
can flag wan destroyed, the windows
ot American business houses and
residences were broken. A street car
containing American school boys was
stoned and the son of tho United
Stales Ambassador was assaulted
These disturbances continued during
November !ith.
On November 10th there was riot
ing in Guadalajara. The American
flag was burned and windows ol
American banks and stores were
broken. These disturbances contin
ued two or three days.
On November II), 1910, there was
rioting at various points in Mexico.
American consulates were wrecked
and the records of the consulates
were destroyed.
On November 18, 1910. the Ma
dero revolution broke out and from
that date on there was general dis
oider in Mexico.
On March 7, 1011, twenty thou
sand Halted States regulars were
mobilized along Hie .Mexican border.
On April II), Mill, Mexican forces
took Agua Prieta, opposite Douglas.
Arizona. In Douglas, Arizona, three
Americans were killed and five were
wounded.
On April 4, mil, .Mexicans again
allocked Agua Prieta, half the town
of Douglas, Arizona, was under fire
of Mexican guns. On thai occasion
seven Americans were wounded.
Governor Sloan, of Arizona, called
upon President Tafl for the protec
tion of Americans. The President
replied declining lo take military ac
tion.
' On October 10 and 11, lull, Mexl-
enn rebels attacked and captured
Juarez. One thousand American
troops patrolled the American bor-
lcr, and in Li Paso, Texas, five
Americans were killed and seventeen
wounded.
On May 12, 1 !l 1 1 . Secretary of
Slate Knox sent to Mexico City a
not denying that the ('lilted Stales
intended to intervene.
On March ltlll!, rifles were
sent to tho American legation In
Mexico City for the protection of
American citizens. American colon
ists in Norlhorn 'Mexico flocked
across the border, and (here was
I. damage to American property
by Hie Mexican mobs.
On April I I. 1 II I the State De
partment warned Mndcro and Oroz-
agalnst further, outrages to
American lives and property.
This all occurred prior to the
Presidential election of lull!.
On December 4. Ill I J, President
Tal't, In a message to Congress, de
scribed bis Mexican policy, which
was practically the same as Mr. Wil
son's lias been, and be called It the
policy of "patient non-intervention."
On February !l, l!li:, there was
an uprising against Hie Mexican gov
ernment In Mexico City. Many days
of street fighting rollowed. Several
hundred Mexican civilians were
killed, including two American wom
en. It was In l-'elirua ry, during Presi
dent Tuft's administration, that Ma
dero was killed and lleurta demanded
recognition: but there was no recog
nition of Hucrta and no intervention
under Hie Tuft administration.
On March 15, 1911. a few days called it "patient non-intervention.'

problem and that it wa3 as much a problem under . Hughes as under

"The assumption by the press that
I contemplate intervention on Mexi
can soil to protect American lives or
property, is of course gratuitous, be
cause I seriously doubt whether

as you Know, I have already de
clined, without Mexican consent, to

the breakwater we are constructing
Just across the border at the mouth
of the Colorado Itiver to save tile
Imperial Valley, although the insur
rectos have scattered the Mexican
troops ami were taking our
and suplies and frightening our
workmen away."
On April 17, 1911. the governor of
Arizona sent a telegram to the Presi
dent, reading In part as follows:
"As a result of today's fighting
across the International line, 1ml
within gunshot range of the heart of
Douglas, five Americans were wound
ed on this side of the line In
my judgment radical measures are
needed to protect our innocent people
'..It will be impossible to
safeguard the people of Douglas un
less the town be vacated."
To this telegram President Taft
replied as follows:
The situation might justify me in
ordering our troops across the bor
der but ir 1 take this step,
I must face the possibility of greater
resistance and greater bloodshed.
and also the danger of having our
motives misconstrued and misrepre-
buildings occupied by Americans, at
tacked newspapers offices favorable
to Americans and attacked streetcars
containing Americans."
On March 25. 1911. the Outlook
said that "events in Mexico are very
confusing" and on April 22, it de
clared that Mexico presented a erl
ous state of affairs."
It was on April 29. 1911, that
Senator Stone, a Democrat, insisted
that President Taft be authorized to
horses' employ whatever iorce niigiu up nec
essary to restore peace in .iexico.
Senator Root, now one of President
Wilson's most bitter critics, said that
a threat of force would be "to re
verse the nnllcv of the I'nlted States
and take a step backward in the path I
of civilization." Senator Lodge, Ke
puhlican, and another critic of the
Wilson administration, said that
President Taft would not ask foi
force until our diplomatic methods
had failed.
It was on April 29. 1911, during
the Taft administration, that the New
York American (Hearst's) said
"through a laggard and chicken-:
hearted President, American threats
of Intervention have become the!
laughing stock of the insurgents and
regulars alike."
It was In February, 1913. during
the Taft administration, that the
New York American (Hearsts) re
ferring to the Mexican situation, said
