“PEACE” IN MEXICO.
In a recent speech Mr Koosevelt condemned I® 1 ’ ilson’s “peace ’ policy as follows: —“Mr Wilson has kept* us out of war. Has he? A < rre ater number of Americans have been killed by Mexicans during these years, when we are officially informed that we have been at peace with them, than were killed by the Spaniards during our entire war with Spain- Moi'cavcx’, when the war with Spain was through, it was
through. Bat peace still continues to rage as furiously as ever in Mexico.” Moreover, “during these throe years of Mr Wilson's ‘peace’ the Mexicans themselves have been butchered by their own bandits steadily and without intermission; and Mexican women and children have died by thousands—probablv by scores of thousands—of starvation, and of (he disease incident to starvation.”
