Wilson’s e-N om@'natz’on( THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 3, 1916. was plain and it was im should live up to it if we the trust of any real pa as free men see it. We e professed to believe, and we do believe, that the people of small and weak states have the right to expect to be dealt with exactly as the people of big and powerful stdtes would be. We have acted upon that prineiple ‘in dealing with the people of' Mexico. Our recent. pursuit of bandits into Mexi- ean territory was no violation of that prins ciple. We ventured to entér Mexican ter- ritory only beesuse there were no military forces in Mexico that could protect our border from hostile attack and our own peo- ple from violence, and we have committed there no single of hostility or interfer- ence even with the sovereign aughority of the Republic of Mesico herself. It was a plain case of the violation 6f our own s ereignty which could not wait to be vin cated by damages and for which there was no other remedy. The authorities of Mexico were powerless to prevent it. lhniy serious wrongs against the property, many irreparable wrongs against the persons, of Americans have commit within the territory of Mexico herself during this confused revolution, wrongs which eould not be effectually checked so long as there was no constituted power in Mexico which was in a position to check them. We could not act directly in that matter ourselves with- out denying Mexicans the right to any revo- lutfon at sll which disturbed us and making the emancipation of her own people await our interest and convenience. Fighting For Liberty. For it is their emancipation that they are seeking—blindly, it may be, and as yet in- effectually, but with profound and psssionste purpose and within their unquestionable right, apply what true’ Americkn principles ynufll o I’ pringiple that' an Amir:‘:n W publicly avow. e peopl exico hgn not been suff to own their own country or direct their own institu t- siders, men out of other nations and with interests too oftem alien to their own, have ted what their privile and unitics should be ment of labor at the disposal of the work: ‘ng_ man when in search of work. ‘e have effected the emancipation of the children of the country by releasing them from hurtful labor, We have instituted a system of national aid in the bulldln, of Lhn-dc such us the country has been 1. ing after for a century. We have sought to equalize taxation by means of ‘an equitable income tax. We have taken the steps that ought to have been taken at the outset to open up the resources of Alaska. We have provided for national defense upon & scale never before seriously proposed upon the responsibility of an entire political party. We have driven the tariff lobby from cover and obliged it to substitute solid argument for private influence. | Following is the full text of the ad- dress of President Wilson in response to the speech of notification, deliv-| ered at Shadow Lawn on Saturday afternoon; Senator Jumes, Gentlemen of the Notifica- tion Committee, low Citizens: 1 ne- cedt the leadership and responsibility which the national democratic convention bas again, in such generous fashion, asked me to accept wl(llo:‘t &r:t upn‘n;ln -‘:‘ v‘n;nnd grati- party . 1 reposes me after four years of fiery trial in the midst of affairs of edented difficulty, and the keen sense of added responsibility with deh this honor fills (I had almost said bardens) me as I think of the great fssues | This extraordinary recital must sound like of mational life and poliey involved in the | 4 platform, a list of sanguine promises; but pegeent and immediate futare conduct of our | it iy not.

Mucht in Store in Future, It is not & future to be afraid of. It is, | when we sure that we understand it— and we have provided ourselves already with the means of understanding it. Look first at what it will be necessary that the nations of the world should do to make the days to come tolerable and fit to live and work in; and then look at our part in what is to follow and our own duty of | reparation. For we must be prepared both | resour nd in policy. Ther t be a just and settled peace, and we here in America must contribute the full force of our enthusissm and of our au- thority as a nation to the organization of that peace upon world-wide foundations that cannot easily be shaken. No nation should be forced to take sides in any quarrel in which its own' honor dnd integrity and the fortunes of its own people are not involved; but no nation can any longer remain neutral as against any wilful disturbance of the peace of the world. The effects of war can no longer be confined to the aress of battle, No nation stands wholly apart in interest when the life and interests of all nations are thrown into confusion and p It hopeful and generous enterprise s to b; o renewed, if the healing and helpful arts life indeed to be revived when peace col again, a new atmosphere of justice and friendship must be generated by means the world has never tried before, The na- tions of the world must unite in joint guar- antoe that whatever s done to disturb the whole world's life must first be tested in fore it is attempted. These are the ‘new foundations the world must _build for itself, and we must play our gart in the recomstruction, generously and without too much thought of our separate interests. We must make ourselves read; to play it intelligently, vigorously and wcl{ ne ‘of the’contributions we must make to the world's peacé is this: We must see to it that the people in our insular p sions are treated in their own lands as we would treat them here, and maki of the United States mean the s everywhere—the same justice, the same- con- sideration for the tial rights of men.
