THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 19185. MEXICO HAS FIVE YEARS' STRUGGLE| Diaz Dead; Madero Assassinated; Huerta Exiled and Arrested; Civil War $till Rages. Editor’s Note—This is the first of three articles tracing the recent history of Mexico. The second: ““Can Carranza Do It?” will appear in tomorrow’s Pio- neer. (United Press) Washington, D. C., Nov. 18.—Diaz dead in exile, Madero assassinated, Huerta exiled and under arrest; Villa an outlaw, and Carranza heading a “‘de facto” unestablished govern- ment, with eivil war still raging. This is the record of five years in Mexico, a nation prostrate today un- der fire, sword and famine. It is the record of a struggle for a real republican government, a real demo- cracy, a republic in form and sub- stance, a struggle of the masses against the classes. Cry for Land. Behind the curtains of arms on the stage of battlefields is the long stifled ery for land. The efforts of Mexico’s peons to own land and pre- vent exploitation and graft, both by their own and foreign citizens, are the underlying causes of what now promises to become in Mexican his- tory the ‘“Five Years’ War.” Exponent of Privilege. The fight divides into three eras: those of Diaz, Madero, Huerta. Its immediate future rests with Car- ranza. Peace, but not liberty or equal individual opportunity, reign- ed under Diaz for a generation. As president and dictator the “Iron Man” was in power from 1884 to 1914. As a military idol on a plat- form of freedom and land distribu- tion Diaz led a revolution in 1875 against President Tejada. He was elected president in 1877, retiring in 1891 in favor of Manuel Gonsalez, being re-elected in 1884 and serving until forced to abdicate in 1910. Diaz was the exponent of special privilege. He held his office with ruthless military force. Graft flour- ished among his subordinates. Wealthy, educated Mexicans support- ed him. Foreign concessionaries thrived. Land barons extended their holdings. The poorer classes were slaves, unable to rent or buy land. Unprecedented Mexican development followed—for the wealthy. Peace prevailed. iner Butler was here today to hear shippers’ complaints against western railroads.

The Madero movement was born in 1909. Francisco I. Madero, of a wealthy family of northern ranch- ers, led a new revolution. He prom- ised social and economic reforms, in- cluding division of government lands and cancellation by the government of land patents given the cientificos foreign exploitation of Mexico he al- so promised to end. Aiding Madero was his brother, Gustav, and Pasquale Orozco. They organized a revolutionary army in Sonora. It soon seized Juarez and swept southward, reinforced by revo- lutionists from Chihuahua and other northern states, the hotbed of revo- lutionary activity. Historians dif- fer as to whether Pancho Villa, later to become a popular hero, enlisted in the Madero movement. Certain foreign mine, oil and ranch concessionaries supported Madero. Others supported Diaz, whose power weakened with age, his army honey- combed with treachery and deser- tion. Diaz resigned and fled to Paris, where he died last summer. Francisco Malero was elected to the presidency in 1910.
