A PERSONAL VOICE JAMES CREELMAN “ No man’s life, no man’s property is safe [in Cuba]. American citizens are imprisoned or slain without cause. American prop- erty is destroyed on all sides. Wounded soldiers can be found begging in the streets of Havana. The horrors of a barbarous struggle for the extermination of the native popula- tion are witnessed in all parts of the country. Blood on the roadsides, blood in the fields, blood on the doorsteps, blood, blood, blood! . Is there no nation wise enough, brave enough to aid this blood-smitten land?” —New York World, May 17, 1896 Newspapers during that period often exaggerated stories like Creelman’s to boost their sales as well as to provoke American intervention in Cuba.

    A New Factor in American Destiny: Visions of Porfirio Díaz and the Politics of “Logical Paternalism” JASON RUIZ Now, one president for twenty years. Some will say that this is not republican. Possibly not, but it is business. —Charles F. Lummis (1902) For an elderly foreign dictator, Porfirio Díaz was tremendously popular with American travelers and observers in the wake of the Spanish-American War. As the United States grappled with its growing power in the hemisphere, well-to-do Americans traveling in Mexico clamored to meet the President and Carmen, his sophisticated young wife.1 The presidential couple indulged a surprising number of meeting requests, and their lucky American guests described meeting Díaz with an almost palpable sense of awe. “As you wait in the anteroom to meet the president,” wrote one American supporter, “you are about to meet what is probably the greatest figure—as it is unquestionably the most romantic—in the world’s politics this half century . and before you know it you are seated vis-à-vis with the creator of a new factor in American destiny.”2 Those who could not secure a personal audience with “the foremost man of the American hemisphere” sent home postcards featuring official-looking photographs of the President or pasted cartes-de-visite in scrapbooks commemorating their journey to a “strange land near home,” as one primer for American schoolchildren called Mexico in 1902.3 Some Americans wrote travelogues crediting him with the amazing transformation of Mexico from a dangerous and unknown backwater into a country that closely resembled American prescriptions for a progressive, modern “sister republic.” Newspapers like the Los Angeles Times and New York Times called him a “hero of peace” or the “lion-hearted son” of Mexico.

  • The Ruth Atwood Black Collection of Alexander Black and Edith O'dell Black Collection #4
    THE RUTH ATWOOD BLACK COLLECTION OF ALEXANDER BLACK AND EDITH O'DELL BLACK COLLECTION #4 SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE This collection was presented to St. Lawrence University in July 1980 by Ruth Atwood Black, daughter-in-law of Alexander Black. Alexander Black was the originator of the "picture play," the fore-runner of the motion picture, and was the pioneer of the screen drama. This collection contains an original manuscript of one of these "picture plays" and other works by Black. Also contained in this collection are approximately 275 letters sent to Edith O'Dell Black and Pomeroy Burton of the New York World from around 1903 to 1944. The letters are by eminent journalists, educators and authors of the first third of the twentieth century and often contain lengthy responses to queries by the World editors. The collection also contains around 50 copies of Edith O'Dell's letters to her various correspondents; several autographed manuscripts, signed; and newspaper clippings (xerox copies) relating to the achievements of Edith O'Dell, Alexander Black and their contemporaries. St. Lawrence University does not own the literary rights to this collection. BIOGRAPHICAL Alexander Black was born in New York City on February 7, 1859. After a grammar school education he became a reporter for the Brooklyn (N.Y.) "Times" and later became the literary and art editor for that paper. Black became interested in photography early in his career and eventually became a leading authority on the camera. In 1886 he became the first president of the department of photography in the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Science.

  • Political Catholicism in Revolutionary Mexico, 1900–1926 Robert Curley
    POLITICAL CATHOLICISM IN REVOLUTIONARY Mexico, 1900–1926 Robert Curley* Working Paper #349 – May 2008 Robert Curley is professor of history in the Social and Urban Studies Department of the Universidad de Guadalajara, Mexico, where he teaches and continues his studies on public Catholicism. Recent publications include “The First Encounter: Catholic Politics in Revolutionary Jalisco, 1917–19,” in Matthew Butler, ed., Faith and Impiety in Revolutionary Mexico (Palgrave MacMillan, 2007) and “Avanza el desierto: Espacio público y suicido político en el imaginario cristero,” in Julia Preciado Zamora, comp., A 80 años del levantamiento cristero (México: CIESAS, forthcoming). Curley holds an MA from the University of Illinois-Chicago and a PhD from the University of Chicago. This working paper draws on research conducted for his doctoral dissertation, “Slouching Towards Bethlehem: Catholics and the Political Sphere in Revolutionary Mexico” (2001). *The author wishes to thank the scholars at the Kellogg Institute for International Studies and two anonymous readers whose comments enriched the text. ABSTRACT This paper argues that the Mexican revolution played a formative role in the construction of modern Mexican Catholicism, while Catholic politics fundamentally shaped the outcome of the 1910 revolution. The argument analyzes several distinct but related moments and their constitutive movements. Catholic social and political movements sought to 1) restore religion to secular society, 2) govern, 3) protest revolutionary fiat, 4) confront anticlericalism,

  • How Did Porfirio Díaz Stay in Power for 35 Years in Mexico? by Christopher Minster
    How Did Porfirio Díaz Stay in Power for 35 Years in Mexico? By Christopher Minster, Mexico, 1907, The journalist James Creelman interviews Porfirio Diaz. (1) http://latinamericanhistory.about.com/od/thehistoryofmexico/p/08diazinpower.htm Dictator Porfirio Díaz, a heroe of the battle of Puebla (2) stayed in power in Mexico from 1876 to 1911, a total of 35 years. He served as President the entire time except for 1880-1884, when he ruled through his puppet Manuel González. After 1884, he dispensed with the farce of ruling through someone else and re-elected himself several times, occasionally needing his hand-picked Congress to amend the Constitution to allow him to do so. During that time, Mexico modernized, adding plantations, industry, mines and transportation infrastructure. Poor Mexicans suffered greatly, however, and conditions for the most destitute were terribly cruel. The gap between rich and poor widened greatly under Díaz, and this disparity was one of the causes of the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920). Díaz remains one of Mexico's longest-lasting leaders, which raises the question: how did he hang onto power for so long? He Was a Great Politician: Díaz was able to deftly manipulate other politicians. He employed a sort of carrot-or- stick strategy when dealing with state governors and local mayors, most of whom he had appointed himself. The carrot worked for most: Díaz saw to it that regional leaders became personally wealthy when Mexico's economy boomed. He had several capable assistants, including José Yves Limantour, who many saw as the architect of Díaz' economic transformation of Mexico.

  • Wngton-Hearst "Telegrams"
    NOTLIKELY SENT: Tm~~WNGTON-HEARST "TELEGRAMS" By W. Joseph Campbell This article challenges as improbable one of American journalism's best- known anecdotes, the purported telegraphic exchange in 1897 between Frederic S. Remington and William Randolph Hearst in which Hearst supposedly vuwed, "I'll furnish the war." The article discusses several reasons why it is exceedingly unlikely the exchange ever took place, including: The supposed reply is at odds with the editorial stance of Hearst's New York Journal in early 1897, and the account is not supported by the contemporaneous record of Remington's assignment to Cuba, from where he is said to have initiated the often-quoted exchange with Hearst. "'W.R. Hearst, Nm YorkJournal, N.Y.: "'Everything is quiet. There is no trouble here. There will be no war. I wish to return. '''Remington."' "'Remington, Havana: "'Please remain. You furnish the pictures, and I'll furnish the war. "'W.R. Hearst."" The purported exchange of telegrams in January 1897between Frederic S. Remington and William Randolph Hearst ranks undeniably as "one of the most famous stories in American journalism."2 It has been called Hearst's "most quoted single ~tterance."~It is often cited by both journalists4 and mass communication scholars? And it serves as compelling evidence about how the yellow press, led by Hearst's Nm York Journal,forced the United States into war with Spain in 1898. The supposed exchange suggests not only reckless arrogance by Hearst but also speaks to the powerful potential effects of the news media. That, indeed, was the intent of James Creelman, the sole original source for the anecdote.6In disclosing the supposed exchange in his book of reminis- cences, On the Great Highway, Creelman maintained that the telegrams suggested the power and the foresight of yellow journalism.

  • “You Furnish the Pictures, and I'll Furnish the War.” the True Story of William Randolph Hearst's 1897 Cable to Frederic
    “You furnish the pictures, and I’ll furnish the war.” The true story of William Randolph Hearst’s 1897 cable to Frederic Remington By Ken Lawrence [email protected] Spring Mills, Pennsylvania © October 2019. All rights reserved. “You go after the story and pictures,” they told [Richard Harding Davis]; “we’ll furnish the war.” If they didn’t absolutely bring on the Spanish-American War, they sure furnished it at that dinner. Somehow I’ve always believed that was the way it happened. Hedda Hopper, “Hedda Tells of San Simeon’s Wonders” (1952) Hearst later privately denied that his telegram [to Frederic Remington] was couched in the epigrammatic form quoted. John K. Winkler, William Randolph Hearst: A New Appraisal (1955) In his book On the Great Highway: The Wanderings and Adventures of a Special Correspondent, James Creelman wrote: Some time before the destruction of the battleship Maine in the harbor of Havana, the New York Journal sent Frederic Remington, the distinguished artist, to Cuba. He was instructed to remain there until the war began; for “yellow journalism” had an eye for the future. Presently Mr. Remington sent this telegram from Havana:— “W.R. Hearst, New York Journal, N.Y.: “Everything is quiet. There is no trouble here. There will be no war. I wish to return. “Remington.” This was the reply:— “REMINGTON, HAVANA: “Please remain. You furnish the pictures, and I’ll furnish the war. “W.R. HEARST.” The proprietor of the Journal was true to his word, and to-day the gilded arms of Spain, torn from the front of the palace in Santiago de Cuba, hang in his office in Printing House Square, a lump of melted silver, taken from the smoking deck of the shattered Spanish flagship, serves as his paper weight, and the bullet-pierced headquarters flag of the Eastern army of Cuba—gratefully presented to him in the field by General Garcia—adorns his wall.
