Mexicans Criticise Wilson.

New York Times 100 years ago today, August 9, 1913:
Newspapers Say Americans Don't Approve Lind Mission.
    MEXICO CITY, Aug. 8.— The press of the Mexican capital continued to-day its discussion of Provisional President Huerta's note to State Secretary Bryan through his Acting Foreign Minister and the American Chargé d'Affaires, in which he gave warning that the presence of John Lind in Mexico would be undesirable unless the ex-Governor brought recognition by the United States of the present Mexican Government. The newspapers unanimously applauded President Huerta find supported their criticism of President Wilson's policy by publishing extracts from American newspapers in which President Wilson was attacked.
    There was noticeable lack of the vicious anti-Americanism usually attending discussions of the warmth of the present one. The opinion appeared to be prevalent here, according to the expressions of the newspapers, that President Wilson did not represent the spirit of the people of the United States in the policy he was pursuing.
    The Independente in an editorial article entitled "The Psychology of Wilson," said the sending of John Lind to Mexico had been a blunder and was so recognized by the press of the United States.
    The Mexican newspapers, both those printed in English and those in Spanish, reflected the approval by Americans in the Mexican capital of President Huerta's stand.
    Federico Gamboa, the newly appointed foreign Minister, who is to succeed Manuel Garza Aldape, the transmitter of Huerta's note, was due to arrive here to-night. His attitude or influence has not been defined, although he is believed to be completely dominated by Huerta.
    It is regarded as probable that there will not be any outward demonstration of hostility against Mr. Lind on his arrival, although there has been no abatement of the disapproval by Mexicans of his coming.
