From our close knowledge of the rug market, we can positively state that our collection of natuaral ORIENTAL RUGS is the FINEST to be FOUND ANYWHERE this SIDE of NEW YORK. We have antique Persians, Turkish, Caucasian, Turcoman and Chinese rugs in various sizes, beautiful in na- tural colors, EXQUISITE in DESIGN, and rare in QUALITY.

We confess we cannot supply all the rugs sold in this section, therefore, we offer for sale only the HONEST Oriental Rugs, which are the hardest things to get in this famine market. All our Rugs are plainly marked, and we sell them at variously REDUCED PRICES, saving you from 10 to 25 per cent. from actual values. RUGS are JUMPING in PRICE with LEAPS and BOUNDS NEVER KNOWN BE- FORE. Wholesalers are looking in vain for shipments that do not come and the dealers are at their wits’ end to find ANY kind of rugs. Remember these facts. Remember also that at the present time, and for a long time to come, in the war swept sections of the Orient there are no rugs made, because there are no rug makers left, there is no wool, no dye and no loom. We offer you the best opportunity to buy rugs like those which your fathers and mothers bought twenty- five and thirty-five years ago; RUGS ORIGINAL, NATURAL, not tempered with acids and made shiny by oils and hot cylinders, and WE GUARANTEE EVERY PIECE AS REPRESENTED.

Lane, secre- tary of the interior department is of vnusual interest: There is no truth in the oft re- peated allegation that all the trouble with Mexico would have been avolded if President Wilson had recpgpiged Huerta. I ask anyone. who wishes to be fair to this administration to look back three years and read the piewspaper of that day and the de- bates in Congress, in murder of Madero and Saurez was denounced, “Had we recognized Huerta ar had we not taken a positive stand against him the criticism this administration has received for the policy we have pursued would be as nothng to what | wwould now overwhelm us. Who were the American statesmen who demand- ed Huerta’s recognition? What one of our leaders of either party set forth the principles upon which a better feeling between this country and all our sister republics of the gouth could be stimulated by taking & position that was abhorrent to our American conscience? ) “We know what we have suffered in the past three years, and it is too easy now to say that all this would have been avoided if Huerta had been recognized, but the only demand made at that time by the more solid of qur men of affairs who were an- tagonistic to the administration’s spolicy was that we should intervene, that we should bring order out of Bbexico by force. “No ane then believed and no onc really believes now that the recogni- tion of Huerta would have solved the Mexican problem. We do know, however, one thing that we were not caonscious of then, that Huerta him- self had so slight a hold upon Mexico that he did not dare to leave the Capital and that he was to all intents and purposes a prisoner of the re- actionaries, able only to reach the sea. at its nearest point. Not Necessary to Call Him Assassin, “Although it is self-evident that this country, as the champion of con- stitutional government in America, can never recognize a military despo- tism based upon assassination, it is net necessary to call Huerta an assas- €in in order to justify our refusal to recognize him. His attempted dicta- which the | torship was but a fiction of govern- ment. With the elected president gnd vice president murdered and the min- ister of state, who was their lawful successor, cowed into submission, Heurta took the reins of power at the best as a temporary Stop-gap. “The revolution against Huerta broke out immediately upon the news of Madero’s death. The cor- respondence between Huerta and Ca ranza recently .published shows that every practical inducement was held out to Carranza to put an end to his revolutionary movement. To Car- ranza's credit, be it sald, he refused to come to terms with those whom he believed had been the cause of the president’s death and who had set to one side the laws of his country. It is not to be forgotten that Huerta did not pretend even to he a constitutional ruler. He sent word to the United States that he had taken the government of Mexico ino his own hands and that he was all the law there was to be found in Mexico. His statement was so bold that even the supreme court of Mexico uttered a feeble protest, which was somewhat more loudly echoed in the Mexican senate. A Legacy From Taft. “In the face of this Huerta asked for recognition from the United States but President Taft felt that he could not conscientiously grant it, and he left the problem to be dealt with by | his successor, who had already been elected. That was the situation when President Wilson took office. uld President Wilson have recog- nized Huerta? Surely there can be but one answer to that question—No! To have recognized Huerta would have been a two-fold injustice. Firs, to the people of Mexico, and second- ly, to all the people of Central and South America. To give the com- mander in chief of an army recogni- tion as president under such circum- stances would have been to announce to all ambitious military officers that they had only to ally themselves with | a successful junta, seize the govern- ment by force, murder the lawful in- cumbents and announce the overthrow of all law and a supreme military dictatorship in order to gain the rec- ognition of the United States, we be- ing thoroughly aware of all that had happened. “Americans are justified in the pride that through the operation of the Monroe Doctrine there is gradu- ally growing up in the new world a civilization that will make old-time revolutionary methods impossible, that will carry forward all of the twenty- one republics to the unification of our international interests in the true spirit of Pan-Americanism. We have so amplified the Monroe Doctrine that we are virtually the co-partners of the republics to the south of us, and to proclaim that the violation of their constitutional slightest interfere tion of a conspiracy to murder law executives and overthrow their tablished republican forms of govern- ment would have been rightly consid- ered by the American people as the most cowardly and short-sighted pol- icy imaginable. Condemnation would have arisen not only from the people of the United States, but from all the nations of the Pan-American union. with our Wilson Not Peremptory. “During Huerta’s regime we learned much of the ability of the Mexican as a causist. The notes that came from Mexico were models of the seven- teenth century style of diplomatic state paper. President Wilson at- tempted, it will be remembered, to find a basis upon which there could be set up in Mexico a government that we could recognize. There was noth- ing peremptory about our attitude in the beginning of the diplomatic ex- changes. “‘Our whole effort was to the ob- taining of a republican form of gov- ernment in MexXico which would havs the people back of it, and guarantces against the establishment of an abso- lutism on our southern border under n their infancy. only then if unavoidable. dose them willfully with narcotics. signature of Chas.

After it became evident, by continued negotiation that ended no- where, that Huerta was standing, so to speak, in the city of Mexico heap- ing insolence upon the United States, President Wilson gave notice that Huerta must go.” GANADIAN SOLDIERS VOTE About 40,000 Alone From Western Provinges Now in Europe—All Get Copy of Candidates’ Addres: (Correspondence of the Asso. Press). London, Sept. 6.—Soldiers from British Columbia now training or re- covering from the British Isles were invited this month to record their the candi- dates seeking the suffrages of the electorate of British Columbia at the general election. It is said there are about 40,000 soldier-electors from the their wounds in votes for That subtle note of ultra fashion- able effectiveness, without trans- gressing is attained in every far western Canadian province now in Europe serving the empire and many of these are in London or its imme- diate vicinity, The results were tele- graphed to the authorities in British Columbia. The recording of these soldiers’ votes while they are away from home has aroused much interest in political | circles in the British Isles, whers; there has been much discussion as to | how the electors for the Imperial Parliament now serving in the army would be affected in the event of a general election, Lord Salisbury has introduced a bill to provide for such an emergency. Its clauses provide that every sailor and soldier registered as an elector | should receive a copy of the candi- | dates’ election addresses. The com- | manding officer of the fighting unit would be required to appoint a day for the delivery of the marked ballot papers in the sealed envelopes sup- plied to his men and these would be forwarded to the electoral officials. | An officer now in the tx‘EnChES.‘. who, in normal times, is an ardent | politician, writes to the newspapers to point cut that soldiers have other things to worry about instead of party politics. ~ He says: “If people at home really think that our men are worying about being temporarily dis- franchised they have got the whole show in the wrong perspective. My men are worrying about rats and good taste, design of our foot- dress.
