life of no value. The inhabitants 
of Mexico may be divided to 40%, 
pure Indians, 40% mixed blood and 
20% white men. Socially, they may 
be separated into two great classes: 
the great illiterate, lethargic, labor- 
ing class about 70%, and the edu- 
cated class of whites, the remaining 
30%. 
The history of the country has 
been largely infiuenced by Mexico’s 
three great men: Hidalgo, a Span- 
ish priest, who made Mexico a free 
country in the revolt of 1821, 
Haurez, an Indian, who served as 
president after the invasion of the 
French in 1861; Diaz, of mixed 
blood, who ruled the country for 
33 years and out of chaos brought 
perfect peace. When he came into 
office in 1877 the country was deso- 
lated by years of warfare, com- 
merce and industry were at a stand- 
still, brigandage was the only flour- 
ishing industry. Diaz converted the 
bandits into loyal soldiers; for the 
first time in the history of the coun- 
try foreign capital entered Mexico 
for purposes of development in- 
stead of exploitation; manufactur- 
ing and mining were encouraged 
and the cities, particularly. the capi- 
tal, were improved and _ beautified. 
Skeptics will say that during the 
rule of Diaz the great 70% did not 
benefit. Mr. Jubert spoke from a 
new point of view regarding the 
peonage system which has been so 
mercilessly criticized. The speaker 
was of the opinion that the system 
was not given justice and he said 
that the uplift of the Mexican peon 
will be the work of generations, ow- 
ing to his lamentable lack of ambi- 
tion. He wants a roof over his

head, three indifferent meals a day 
and a sufficient number of holidays 
during the year. Even so, Mr. Ju- 
bert contrasted his life with that of 
certain classes of mill people in New 
England to the disadvantage of the 
latter. 
Madero, who was installed as 
president in 1911, after the ingrati- 
tude of the people had forced Diaz 
to resign, came of a large and weal- 
thy family of aristocrats but he 
roused the common people to revolt 
on the ground of Liberty and Cons- 
titution. Mr. Jubert explained the 
point of view of the average Mexi- 
ean regarding Liberty as a concrete 
liberty—liberty to steal and to mur- 
der; constitution, he said, is a word 
without meaning to the man of this 
class. When Madero came into of- 
fice in October there was unlimited 
opportunity for carrying out his 
campaign promises, but he fulfilled 
none of them. 
Madero first aroused the discon- 
tent of the people by not giving to 
them a share of the lands owned in 
ereat tracts by the rich; next, he in- 
stalled in office some 150 of ‘the 
members of the Madero family, thus 
making Mexico a monarchy instead 
of a republic. He estranged the 
army and within three months ban- 
dits were terrifying the country. 
The revolt of Feburary 8, led by 
Felix Diaz was the direct result of 
Madero’s folly in dealing with the 
people. Huerta, of whom Mr. Ju- 
bert spoke very highly as a soldier, 
stood by Madero in this trouble un- 
til after the terrible ten days’ bat- 
tle at Mexico City, when he put 
Madero under arrest, after the lat- 
ter had shot- down two envoys and 
their aides. men from his own sup- 
porters, who had come to remon- 
strate with him.

Mr. Jubert took this occasion to 
speak very highly of Ambassador 
Henry Lane Wilson who has been 
so severely censured with regard to 
his Mexican policy. Mr. Jubert 
gave him unstinted praise for his 
conduct during the battle of Mexico 
City, when Mr. Wilson, by reason 
of his personality, not his office, was 
able to keep the American embassy 
neutral and to make it a place of 
refuge for the hungry and the huni- 
ed. The 75,000 Americans in Mexi- 
co recognize the ambassador’s true 
worth and have assured him of the 
fact and before he left Mexico City 
every organization of every nation- 
ality there drew up resolutions of 
thanks to him for his kindness and 
bravery. 
Mr. Jubert said, ‘‘Every drop of 
blood and every life that has been 
sacrificed since Huerta became pro- 
visional president is at the door of © 
our Mexican policy. The war was 
over, peace had descended upon 
Mexico. When the $100,000,000 
loan was being negotiated, it was 
the United States that tied up the 
purse strings of the bankers of the 
world by refusing to do her part. 
It was the United States that leased 
arms to the rebels under Carranza 
in name, but under Villa in reality, 
that enabled war to break out again. 
Villa is a butcher of people and has 
had a price on his head for years.’’ 
When asked what the probable 
outcome was, Mr. Jubert said that 
no one could forecast that but for 
the sake of the 75,000 Americans in 
Mexico, he expressed a fervent hope 
that Villa would not be the victor.
