VKRA INCIDENT,
la ta prlnjr of 1114, oocur
r4 h capture of Vera Cfu.
Man from ins of our ships had
beea arrested at Taqiploo and
had been discharged wlih an
apology. But our Admiral de
sua.ided a salute, which was re
fused. Thereupon the President
went to Congress, asking au
thority to use tha arawxl. -forc
of the Vnltod States. Without
waiting for the passage of the
resolution, Vera Cruz was seis
ed, it appeared that a shipload
of ammunition for Kuerta was
about to enter that port. There
was a natural opposition to this
Invaaion and a battle occurred
In which nineteen Americans
and over a hundred Mexicans
were killed. This, of course,
was yrar. Onr dead soldiers
were praised for dying like
heroes la a war of serrlce.
Later, we retired from Vera
Orua, firing up this noble war
tare. We had not obtained the
salute which was demanded.
We had not obtained repara
ttoa for affroota. The shtp with
ammunition which could not
Iaa4 at Vera Crus had soon
landed at another port, and Its
cargo was uTrd ts Ilutrt
wftikout Interference. Recently
tike naked truth was admitted
by a Cabinet officer. We are
now Informed that "we did not
go to Vera Crus to force Huerta
to salute the flag." We are
totd that wa went there "to
show Mexico that we were in
earnest In oar demand that
Huerta must go." That la, we
seised Vera Crus to depose
Huerta. The question of the
salute was a mere pretexts
From Mr. Hughes' speech of ac
ceptance. Hughes Points the Way
The speetfa of tha Republkau eaa
dldat for President vaa a keynote
speech. Indeed. Not one person In
the great audiease at the Carnegie
Hall meeting was In doubt for one
moment as to Just what he meant by
erery thing he said..
His address was comprehensive, log
!"', and all sualclent for the
poeasloa. There oan be no dispute
as to this. Plainly Mr. Mtsghes Is a
inaa who nraowa what he wan(s when
fee waste It," and It Is the opinion
ef political aathorlties who heard him
and who haye since read his remarks
that be knows, alto, how to get It
' It was incumbent upon the Repub
Usaa candidate to confine the scope
pf his remarks to the limitations of
tbe oecasion. but his crushing analy
sis of the shortcomings of the pres
ent administration of the government
is merely an earnest of what the tone
and the contents of his speeches will
ie when he gets on the stump.
At Carnegie Hall Mr. Hughes ad
TtftM Vf miT general WfilUoi that
MWM-a .
aianshiwMsaartt,
is apt to be a serious Issue In tbe
campaign and In language that will
be absolutely clear to every man or
woman able to re4 he staled his
opinions, bis convictions and his pur
pos. On the stump be will argue
those points In detail. As an orator
b.e Is eloquent, his personality attrac
tive and ils marshalling of facts so
cohesive that he holds his audience
to the end. He makes It easy for
them to follow him and his point;
are not lost.
.There waa nothing, equivocal, noth
lng apoiogetlo In the Republican can
didate's speech of acceptance. He
called a spade a spade, and the unani
mous opinion of those who heard him
was that he shot to the center and
rang the belL The Republics! cam
paign Is now open, and those who
will speak and write and work for
the success of the Republican ticket
aa wish for no more adequate cam
paign document, no more satisfactory
statement of issues than are found la
the candidate's salutatory.
MAINTENANCE Or
AMERICAN RIGtiTt
Had this Government bf the
use ef both Informal and farinef
dlpiematlo opportunities left ne
doubt that when we said "ttrlct
accountability" we meant . pre
cisely what we eald, and that
we snouid unhs!tat!Rs!y rtsd!
eats that position, I em confi
dent that there would have been
ne destruction of American lives
by the sinking of the Uusltanla.
There, we had ample notice; In
fact, published notice. Further
more, we knew the situation
and we did not require specific
notice. Instead of ' whittling
away our formal statements by
equivocal conversations, we need
ed the straight, direct and de
clslvs representations whloh ev
ery diplomat and foreign office
would underetand. I believe
that In this way we should have
besn sparsd the repeated aa
savlta en American lives. More
over, a firm American policy
would have been strongly eup
perted by our people and the op
portunities for the development
of bitter feeling would have
been vastly reduced. From Mr.
Hughes' speech of acceptance.
