CAN CARRANZA DO IT?
WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.—Has
Carranza the strength and purpose
that Madero lacked, to enforce re
forms, particularly agrarian, which
Madero failed to establish?
This is the question asked in world
diplomatic circles today. Mexican af
fairs observers point to the brief
reign of Madero as possibly signifi
cant.
After his election in 1910 Madero
sought reform laws including the divi
sion of land among the peons. He
failed. Discontent followed.. Criti
cism became active opposition. Nepo
tism is said to have weakened
Madero’s power. Graft again held
sway.
Amidst the clamor against Madero,
Gen. Victoriano Huerta, Madero's
minister of war, is alleged to have
j conceived his overthrow. Feliz Diaz,
nephew of the former dictator, and
Gen Reyes were called Huerta's co
conspirators.
The storm against Madero broke
Feb. 9, 1913. The Mexican City gar
rison, controlled by Huerta, revolted.
The capital was the battleground.
Cannon raked the streets. Rioting
and pillage, arson and murder,
reigned.
The arrest of Madero followed Feb.
18. Under threats of assassination
he resigned next day. Under the
Mexican constitution, Pedro
Lascurain, Madero’s minister of for
eign affairs became president—for an
hour. In that hour Lascurian ap
pointed Huerta foreign minister, then
resigned. Huerta, by succession, be
came president.
Forty-eight hours later Madero and
Suprez were dead. On the rvght of
Feb. 23 they were taken from a car
riage while enroute from one prison
to another and shot down by soldiers.
Lieut. Francisco Cardenas is said to
hpve been commander of the firing
squad. He later fled and is today re
ported exiled in Guatemala.
Upon Madero’s death, Huerta urg
ed all state governors to rema n loyal.
He also demanded U. S. recognition
from President Taft. Before the lat
ter had need to decide, his term end
ed.
To avenge Madero’s assassination
and restore constitutional govern- j
ment, the present Constitutionalist
revolution was organized, culminating j
in the recent recognition of the Car- j
ranza government.
Gen. Venustiano Carranza was •
Madero’s governor of Coahuila, a well
to do rancher. Pancho Villa was then
a bandit in the Sonora mountains. On
March 26 Carranza was proclaimed '
“First Chief” of the Constitutional-1
ist revolt, at a conference of revolu- i
tionists at Guadalupe, Coahuila. The 1
famous “Plan of Guadalupe” was then
|
born, pledging the Constitutionalists
to avenge Madero’s death and place a
contitutional successor in the Presi
dent’s chair. Land and other reforms
were pledged.
Numerous and wealthy relatives of
Madero supported Carranza’s revolt.
Northern Mexico united to recruit
Carranza’s army. From Sonora
Pancho Villa stepped out upon the
stage of Mexican politics. He and his
outlaws enlisted under Carranza.
Villa was appointed a general of
the Division of the North. Gen.
Alvaro Obregon was head of the
northwestern corps. In a spectacular
campaign, Villa headed captures of
Juarez, Chihuahua and finally Tor
reon, one of the bloodiest battles.
Afterward Zacatecas fell. During
1913-14 the Constitutionalists fought
almost to Aguas Calientes.
Meantime President Wilson had re
fused Huerta recognition. In several
messages to Congress, the first only j
eight days after his inauguration,
the President declared “Huerta must
go”. Huerta’s downfall was fore
casted by the President’s proclamation
raising the embargo on arms in favor
of the revolution. Huerta had been
recognized by England, Spain, France,
Austria, Japan and other countries.
On Oct. 10, 1913, Huerta suspended
the Mexican Congress, arrested 111,
or half, of the members. There were
reports that many were assassinated.
With the Carranzaistas pressing upon
Mexico City, the “Tampico incident”
occurred April 9, 1914, when Ameri
can bluejackets were arrested by
Huerta’s orders. Demands by Ad
miral Mayo for a salute to the flag in
reparation, was swiftly followed by
the expeditionary landing April 21 at
Vera Cruz, with fighting in which 21
Americans were killed. The army
commanded by Gen. Funston took
possession.
President Wilson then called the
A. B. C. Mexican peace conference at
Niagara Falls* April 25. Huerta sent
delegates. Carranza refused official
participation or an armistice. No
tangible results toward pacification
were attained by the Congress.
Capitulating to the force of this
government's insistence upon his
.
tirement, Huerta, after a farcical
election as President in July, 11»14, re
signed July l-r> and went to Paris.
Carranza entered Mexico City at the
head of his troops Aug. 20, 1014.
