Subscribed and sworn to tember, 1916, (Notarial Seal) d922 VILLA AIDED BY WILSON'S FAVOR AND BACKING. In March last, Villa made a raid into American territory. He was a bandit leader whose career of successful Infamy had been greatly aided by Mr. Wil- son’s favor and backing. He was at the head of Mexican sol- diers, whose arms and munitions had been supplied to them in consequence of Mr. Wilson’s re- versing Mr. Taft’s policy and lifting the embargo against arms and munitions into Mexico. They attacked Columbus, New Mexico, and killed a number of civilians and a number of United States troops. On the next day the president issued an announce- ment that adequate forces would be sent in pursuit of Villa “with the single object of capturing him.” On April 8th, the an- nouncement was made from the White House that the troops would remain in Mexico until Villa was captured. It was furthermore announced in the press despatches from Washing- ton that he was to be taken “dead or alive.” Fine words! Only—they meant nothing. He Is not dead. He has not been taken alive.—From speech of Col. Theodore Roosevelt, deliv- ered at Lewiston, Malne, in be- half of Charles H. Hughes.

President Wilson explicitly shows that the Carranzistas, not once but repeatedly, made at- tacks on American towns, and killed American citizens, and mutilated them in September, 1915. Yet on October 19th, 1916, less than a month later, this same President Wilson, through his same Secretary of State, formally announced to Carran- za’s agent that it was his “pleas- ure” to take the opportunity “of extending recognition to the de facto government of Mexico, of which General Venustiano Car- ranza is the chief executive.” President Wilson thus recog- righteousness and humanity!— | nized the government which, his own Secretary of State declares, had been less than a month pre- viously engaged in repeated assaults upon Americans, and in the invasion of American soil, the government at whose head ‘was General Carranza, who, less than two months previously, on August 2nd, 1915, had contempt- uously refused to pay any heed to any representations of Presi- dent Wilson on behalf of media- tion, saying that “under no consideration would I permit in- terference in the internal affairs of Mexico.” President Wilson did not merely kiss the hand that slapped him in the face. He kissed that hand when it was red with the blood of American men, women and children, who had been murdered antt mutilat- ed with, as President Wilson, through his Secretary of State, says, “ruthless brutality.,”—From the speech of Col. Theodore Roosevelt, delivered at Lewis- ton, Maine, in behalf of Charles B. Hughes.
