AVm flemedy for filMicariWar BY THOMAS W. MINTON The savage manner in' which Gen eral Huerto" had ' 'President Madero' ' and his secretary killed after gaining the confidence of the Maderd" ministration." proves' to thi '; Ad world that such men as General jHuerto' ' are not qualified to conduct the affairs of any government. "General Huerto" who was "President Maderots" com manding officer, turned traitor to 'President Madero" and used his troops for the overthrow his supe rior, at the critical moment," when he should have won a victory for him Backed by the influence of the Catho lic church and, furnished with funds by order of the Pope of Rome, puerto" in order to get "Madero," who had been preaching equality and fraternity out of the way cunningly offered him his services in order to secure an op portunity of having him assassinated. The Catholic church considers ignor ance among the people, the J 'mother of safety. ' ' The Catholic church seems willing to spend any sum or resort to anything by the mean of which .will enable it to keep the people m dark ness, while it fords its shackles to bind them in slavery, as it onqe did in Spain, and is now doing in Peri. tfhe resources of the country of Mexico are being destroyed. Thousands J of non--combattants are suffering Untold pri vations, and the life and property of all foreigners are constantly v being menanced, yet the terrible stirife and bloodshed goes on unabated. Villa is a great soldier, but not a statesman, and if permitted to carry out his high st ambition, which is to become Pres ident of Mexico, he will strbke her till she shuts her eyes and then bind her in chains. It seems a strange period in Mexico, in which such is the confusion of ideas, that rapacity speaks the language of patriotism, and patri otism that of rapacity, and .jhe two get so confused that it rii nardto say which sentiment prevails. I cease to believe in men who have swept Mexico like a hurricane, and in proclaiming liberty, equality and have laid all men low fraternity, and rendered the country bankrupt. "Wby does notour Administration apply to Chili, Brazil, the Argentine Republic and other South American countries to co operate with it in bringing about peace and order in Mexico ancl . make possible the establishment ; of raj perme nent government by the ' people?" What good can the Monroe doctrine be to any people when' una Implied?" And how can we apply it without the consent and help of the others Ameri can Republics?" "it shouldj be as much to the interest of other countries in the Western Hemisphere tht peace should reign in Mexico, as it is tothe interest of the United States- "This policy has been continually ac vocated by such leaders as "Sberf ill, John Bar rett," "Rear Admiral GrtT. Chester" nd others. Several of '' the South American countries "have already indi-1 cated that they are ready top join in with this country for the protection of the Mexican people, as well as of for eign residents, from he terriMe con dition in which they plungedi On the 15th day of November, 1894, vas laid in the City of "Rio de Jane oV the corner-stone of a monument to Amer- cjin solidarity. ' ' Under this stone this official record lies." ' "The mon ument which will be erected, on the spot in whi6h this stone is laid and which will symbolize 1 the bolitical nion of the "Continent ot Coli mbus,'! will be surmounted by. the 6ure of J ames Monroe, " author of the cele brated doctrine known by his ' name, hich teaches that; the nation i of the ew continent should J unite for ; the Purpose of preventing any' 12: ldue in terference of the Nations of Europe !? the internal affairs of ArAerica. " Around the principal figure will be grouped the great ; national liberators of America, Washington," -Jeffer-Son'" 'jJauret," "Loussaint Lonver tonr "Bolivar," 'lasel Bofifacio' and Benjamin Constant." Again, whv dea not our Administration Carry out these principles suggested at the ;ainS 01 tbe corner-stone of "Rio de Jenero" in lrtiAi inen of thought ever since? - It is as-J .. vuai tue policy 01 waicniui Raiting" by our Administration has een maintained so long, while, the country 6t Mexico is being torn into hreds, and her soil soaked wita blood. Vaccinate i Against ; TypJioid ,The JState Laboratory of; Hygiene is up to its heck with orders for anti typhoid fever . vaccine:. Everybody, seems to want to be immunized against typhoid. The laboratory people count up the number of treatments sent out, about 9,000 doses a week, or enough to immunize about 3,000 people every week, - ltf ;?';; fJ -The vaccine is sent out free . of charge. The only condition being that people who want to be immunized have their family physician or health offi cer order the vaccine. The labratory will not send the vaccine to a Jayman, because it has to be; injected under the skin and the layman has no means of administering it. 7 While teqaests for vaccine pour in from every part of the State, there appears to be record breaking demands for it in counties having whole time health officers. i Administering the vaccine, ip practi cally painless,; It does hot nur t ; near ly so much- as being stuck with a needle or pin. - No Tunning sore re sults as in the case of smallpox vaccine. A slight swell usnally occurs, and some soreness and : tenderness, but these begin to subside after twelve or fifteen hours ancl disappear in from thirty-six to forty-eight hours. Moder ate headache occurs in about one person, out of twenty, "and in rare instances. one per cent or less, this symtom is quite severe. No serious results have ever occured either in this State or in the hundreds of thousands of cases n the army or navy. Three applications about a week or; ten days apart are necessary to produce immunity. As to efficiency, it may Be said that in the army where statistics are a vailable anti typhoid vaccination has reduced the ? typhoid' case rate to less than one per cent ef what is was prior; to vaccination, and the typhoid death rate was entirely abolished , last year ? . ; : " f The length of immunity v conferred by the vaccine is hbt known, but ' it is thought to be at Wast four years. ; At least it is well, worth one's trouble to be vaccinated; when ; we recall that 1,200 North Carolinians died of typhoid last year and about 15,000 were sick ter several weeks with heavy less from doctors' bills and other expenses. There should be no compromise with such men as the , murderer ."Huerta.' The greater 'part of his regime would J survive and cripple, the coming Admin' istration,' Such a course would form too generous- a surrounding for a ha tred enemy of Nthe : Mexican people. The danger that revolution in' Mexico will continue, . until the reform ele ments triumph 1 completely. Until the country is purged of "Huerta" and his like; until the people are freed from concessionaries, and until they are rid of landlordism. The remedy of revolution in "Mexico," is a thor ough remoyal of the present regime. To compromise; would sow the seed of endless disturbance. "if our Ad ministration can not with propriety form an alliance with the South Amer ican Republics in : bringing peace and prosperity .. to rent , and distressed Mexico, it can at least ask their sym pathy and influence in the good work, the granting of which will be sufficient to stay the hand of any European Vna- tion TirVii'h marr mppIc nnlitical annex a- J i tion of American terntory. 0 man liveth to himself and performs his duty to his neighborhood. Neither can the most powerful: nation recipro-; cate to the world for. existing privi leges and progress, by attempting vto maintain control of t another country single handed. ' ; v -; International law, and; humane policy Would prevent our ;"Administratioh" from" intervening by - force of arms, in the ' internal affairs of . "Mexico" without cause: .Besides; the act no doubt would cost it the best bfood of our country, saying ' nothing of ; the millions in money we would be" forced toj spend, r t But the -hour has struck for v our 'Administration' ' : to -i make some .move -to bring peace . and . pio gress; from the chaos of fire' and sword in' stricken and bleeding"Mexico, wor thy of the high position in which" the peace t loving people ; of this country have placed it., , The Timoleon who would bring lasting peace in "Mexico" deserves i well of his country."' 5 ' 1 An ;agreaabl8 -person ia . the T7ho tlka to ycj cf tczzzzIL : - ono News from - Colerain ..-.vA.:, 1 We are having t dry in this section and the. cr series of meetings . are being held at Baker school, hohse - this i week.
