Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty Years With the Mexicans: In Peace and Revolution American readers all possible light upon the Mexic people and their problems. Of all literature, that is the most useful which is the result of sympathetic and close personal relations. The writer has had the privi lege of travelling a little in Mexico with Dr. Case, particularly in those regions ofgiihughua which were most recently his home, and can give personal testi mony to the intimate friendship existing between Dr. Case and the Mexican people, and to the heroism with which he went on about his accustomed life in Mexico during years when the northern states were overrun with disorganized bands of soldiers and outlaws and life there was full of danger. His book presents a series of views of Mexican life, the veracity of which is apparent to any one who has visited Mexico, and his conclusions with respect to the Mexican people and their future are the thoughts of a man of close powers of observation, sympathetic insight, and long experi ence in analyzing the characters of men of another race and heritage from ourselves.

Download or read book The Purposes and Ideals of the Mexican Revolution Classic Reprint written by American Academy Of Political A Science and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Purposes and Ideals of the Mexican Revolution The addresses printed herewith were delivered at a joint meeting of the American Academy of Political and Social Science and the Pennsylvania Arbitration and Peace Society on the evening of Friday, November 10, 1916. The importance of the occasion, as well as the significance of the addresses, make it desirable to place them in the hands of every member of the Academy. The American public has never had an opportunity to form a judgment of the purposes of the Mexican Revolution. It has seemed important to the officers of the Academy that these purposes should be presented by the men who have taken not only a leading part in the revolutionary movement but who are now actively engaged in an endeavor to work out these purposes in concrete and practical form.

This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reactionary Revolt and the Revolution for Liberty in Mexico This state of disorder is simply and purely the consequence, first of insubordination, and second of the revolt of a military chief commanding a number of troops belonging to the army hereinbefore mentioned It has therefore, arisen from an act of treason against the armed movement which followed the usurpa tion of the Government of Mexico by General Victoriano Huerta and the murder committed by him in the persons of President Madero and vice-president Pino Suarez. It is nothing more than the result of mutiny on the part of a number of rebel soldiers headed by, Francisco Villa against the General in Chief of the army, Venustiano Carranza, and not the sequence of the revolution itself which continues unaltered in its march towards its noble ideals, carrying as its banner the public liberties of Mexico, and the Plan of Guadalupe as its only rule of action.

Download or read book Mexican Literature on the Recent Revolution Classic Reprint written by Herbert Ingram Priestley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexican Literature on the Recent Revolution The chief problem studied by the author is that of subdivision of the great estates in individual holdings. The economic inutility of these large holdings is due to a number of facts peculiar to the land problem in Mexico. There, great individual holdings, in spite of the laws, always constitute real amortization. All the great haciendas'of the central valley lie in the plains, while the rustic population is perched upon the hills where there is no vegetation other than that arising from cultivation. The haciendas are of the huge size to which the American imagination has been accommodated by many English works on Mexico. What is worse, they remain half tilled and in the same hands for centuries. The owners prefer ruin rather than subdivision of their estates, which they hold together in the spirit of domination. Within their holdings they exercise the absolute dominion of feudal lords. They enrich themselves by the toil of the unhappy laborer; they gradually take possession of the communal lands of the comuni dades, and later brazenly claim proprietorship. This has brought, about deep-seated hatred and endless litigation between towns and hacendados. The ownership of an hacienda is not a business; the investment of capital in great tracts of land is not profitable. The owners seek a fixed income from their estates, endeavoring to make income and expenses actually meet. If the ratio can be maintained the hacendado is content; if not, he strives, not to increase production, but to assure it, seeking not volume of returns but regularity. Hence he sows only wellknown seeds, under irrigation, rather than venture new crops. For this reason production from the haciendas is less than from the rancherias. The truly typical agriculturist of Mexico is the ranchero, not the hacendado. The latter establishes his fixed income, turns his estate over to an administrator, and travels in Europe or dallies at his club. He might increase production by developing irrigation if he would take from his income to finance the work, or he might im prove his product otherwise by similar investment, but he will not; he can, then, make his hacienda go only by arranging credits, thus exposing himself to loss if his foresight is bad.

Download or read book The Railway Revolution in Mexico Classic Reprint written by Bernard Moses and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Railway Revolution in Mexico This was not a matter of great moment so long as Spain's colonial restrictions on trade were maintained. A few Indians or a few donkeys would carry at a single trip all that any town received from Spain in the course of a year; and the colonists were thus thrown back upon their immediate efforts for the satisfaction of their wants; and the king, by prohibiting trade between the colonies, emphasized their isolation, and indicated the uselessness of means of communication. This restrictive policy of Spain with regard to her colonies tended to place the European settlers on the economic basis of the Indians. A short period of the kind of life to which they were reduced made them forget most of the wants that had belonged to their previous station, and made it comparatively easy to provide what seemed to be an adequate satisfaction of those remaining. But by the imperfection of the means of production, and of internal transportation, a vast amount of force was consumed without great results. It is not enough to say of this case that labor was cheap, and to find in this a justification of its unprofitable use. Labor was cheap because, through the force of custom and the restrictions of the law, it continued to be used in such ways that its product could afford no larger compensation. By referring to Spain's restrictions on trade with and in America, the accomplishment of ends with rude means, and the employment of human and animal power directly with little use of mechanical appliances, we indicate the early character of Mexico's economic system, a system which became so thoroughly rooted in custom that its main characteristics were preserved well into this century; and some of its features are conspicuous in the Mexican life of the present. Fruit is still carried into the City of Mexico on the backs of men, over distances requiring journeys of several days; and when you buy it there in the market, you think it still cheap, from which may be inferred how little must be the daily compensation of these men, and, in relation to the result, how great the expenditure of force.

While there exist, it is true, many voluminous tomes, by such historians as Zarate, Bustamente, Zavala and others dealing with different epochs, in the story of the Southern Republic, - they are unreliable on account of prejudice and partiality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Barbarous Mexico: An Indictment of a Cruel and Corrupt System Tm: bulk of the material embodied in this volume was gathered during two journeys through Mexico made in 1908 and 1909; the rest of it was gleaned from a careful study of current writings on Mexico, both in English and in Spanish, and from other sources. My purpose is to give the reader a correct impres sion of President Diaz and his political and economic system, of the character of the Mexican people, and of the diaz-american partnership, which has helped to enslave the Mexican nation on the one hand and has kept the American public in ignorance of the real facts on the other. Current illusions concerning Mexico and its President are exploded, and the American defenders of slavery and autocracy are made to appear in their true light. The term barbarous which I use in my title is intended to apply to Mexico's form of government, and not to its people, who have my ungrudging sympathy in the afflictions under which they groan.
