Though Carranza was willing to have the Constitutionalists represented, if the discussion related solely to the immediate issue between the United States and Huerta, he declined to extend the scope of the conference so as to admit the right of the United States to interfere in the internal affairs of Mexico. The conference accomplished nothing so far as the immediate issue was concerned.

Then to Billie: "If you are telling me the truth you have done me a great favor." The boys looked surprised. "How is that?" asked Donald. "Do you not know that we are of the army of Gen. Carranza?" was the interrogative reply. "Why, no!" exclaimed the boys in unison. "It is true," said the officer. "I am Captain Lopez. Now tell me, who are you?" Briefly Donald told of their acquaintance with Gen.

Under the Monroe Doctrine, as it is now being interpreted, no Latin-American people will be permitted to organize a revolutionary government that abolishes the right of private interests to own the oil, coal, timber and other resources. The mere threat of such action by the Carranza Government was enough to show what the policy of the United States must be in such an emergency.

"You mean the rebels would like to stir up trouble on the border and get Obregon into hot water with Uncle Sam in just the same way that Pancho Villa some years ago made trouble between our government and Carranza by his raid on Columbus, New Mexico?" "That's it, Bob," said his father. "Gee, Dad," cried Bob. "This time, if there's a war, I'm going to enlist, believe me."

The pious, devout, and learned Spanish divine was worthy of a better fate, and perhaps a little more quietism and a little less restlessness would not be amiss in our busy nineteenth century. The noblest prey ever captured by those keen hunters, the Inquisitors, was Bartholomew Carranza, Archbishop of Toledo, in 1558, one of the richest and most powerful prelates in Christendom.

However, as the only apparent escape from more watchful waiting or from armed intervention on the part of the United States, in October the seven Governments decided to accept the facts as they stood, and accordingly recognized Carranza as the de facto ruler of Mexico.

The owner of the book left Salamanca to avoid an epidemic which was then raging there. Luis de Leon had expected a visit from Poza that day, and had intended to burn the volume in Poza's presence. He carried out the main part of his intention by burning the work in the presence of Fray Bartolomé de Carranza, to whom he explained the meaning of this holocaust.

They decided to give the Mexicans three months in which to settle their quarrels, and warned them that if by that time order was not restored United America would be forced to take action. Soon after this, however, Carranza succeeded in subduing his rivals to a certain extent, and got possession of the greater part of the country.

Shortly afterward Madero was shot under circumstances that pointed to Huerta as the instigator of the assassination, but his friends kept the fires of revolt alive, and Governor Carranza of Coahuila, the state across the border from northwest Texas, refused to recognize the new ruler. It was at this juncture that Wilson succeeded Taft.

When I see him do it, I will believe not before." "Why not? I have more men than he has. He needs men. All he has is this understanding that he brags of with the new government." "Lies, amigo, lies! His record with Carranza is against him." "Well, all men lie," replied Angel, tersely, and with probably no intention of plagiarism. "Anyhow, we can do some good fighting together.
