Cm of Mexico, Juno 14—The recent action of the government in granting impor tant concessions for colonization, public improvements, etc., to Amcricam and American comp unit a, ia the pretext for an assault on the administration by tho organs of tho chnrch party. The National, a jrominent opposition journal, will, in a eading article to-morrow, take a strong stand against the Diaz administration for grantiogconcessions to Americans. “Each of these concisions," says tho National, “is one link moro which ties us to ‘that paciflo American conquest,’ as it is termed by American journalists within and without the country. With this ‘paciflo conquest'there will bo no war; there will be no armies of Americans invading Mexi co, and no battles will be fought. We shall not see ourselves subjugated by cur national ene- emits by force of arms; bnt, oil tn« o»Q t baud, the busin*** men and financiers who come from the United States, and to whom nnr gnv«fnm«n| give COnarfikinntt. will create American interests, will make the mu-lves the owners of Rreat manufao- taring, mining, railway, and agricultural enUrpriats; will acquire extensive territori al properties; will txercise ^y their woaltb decisive influence in the country, and the day will arrive, if things go on as t» ey are now goieg, when they will oontrol the tb o- tions, will beoome deputies and ministers, and nill decree who shall be President of the ltepublio. The Oatholio religion will then give place to Protestantism, to Jnda< ism, to Mormonlsm, and to a thousand ridiculous sects which exist in tho United states, and the English language will place the Spanish. In that day we shall no longer be Mexicans—we shall be sieve* in onr own land, and will oocupy the wretoh- cd place which descendants of Mexicans now occupy in California, Texas and New Mexi- oo, \«ho have not assimilated with the Yankee racos. If foreigners arc needed, let Europeans be weloomed; lot Spaniards, Frenchmen, English and Germans come, but not Americans. The writer goes on to say that Europeans will aid the Mexicans to resist American in fluence and overcome the Yankees. “To admit Yankees," continues the article, to seat at our table our mortal enemies, Already Americans control the Central, National aud Sonora railways. Many of the richest mines are in their possession, and soon therj will bo American banks of discount, and all our wealth will pass into their bands, because our government obey- the fatal error which inclines it to them. The future means Yankee absorption; tho disappearance of the Mexican race in misery, and an increase in the number of stars in the hated American flag. If wo Mexicans wish to prevent this terrible fate it is neoes . ary that public opinion should not declare It elf resolutely anti-American, as it is al ready, but show itself in all its acts." The tone of the clerical pres* continues strongly anti-American, and bltUr in its on- position to tho policy of thr Diaz adminis tration, which favors protection, and for a government of American capital and enter prise.
