| | Handbook of Texas Online: PARTIDO LIBERAL MEXICANO |
 | | PLM was organized at the Congreso Liberal, which first met at the Teatro de Paz in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, for eight days beginning on February 5, 1901, to discuss the Díaz regime's departure from the Mexican Constitution of 1857, especially its anticlerical provisions. |
 | | PLM activity was prominent in Del Rio, an important center for prerevolutionary activity, in San Antonio, and especially in El Paso, where the location just across the border from Mexico provided a fortress for Mexican dissidents once the revolution began. |
 | | PLM advanced anti-Díaz sentiment through newspapers, chief among them Regeneración, and through political pronouncements on the ideals espoused by Flores Magón, one of whose best-known statements on PLM ideology, "A la mujer" ("To Women"), appeared in the September 24, 1910, edition of Regeneración. |
