placed in a position of such great tempta-

subjects. Everything they have is his.
He owns, theoretically, every grain of

That is the doctrine Of the ~autocracy. If

In Old Mexico.

CITY OF MEXICO. May 22-The Pabellon
Naconale newspaper has been making pro-
tests against the Entertainment to which agri-
cultural laborers on haciendas in the remote
parts of the country are subjected. It says
in some districts of the state of Chiapas the
natives use their natural dress, that is to
say, what nature gave them and nothing
more. Thus they are found on roads, and
thus they serve on the haciendas, and show
themselves in the towns.
1t appears they are ignorant of the exist
ence of hats, since they never cover their
heads. These wretched poems hire them
selves out as beasts of burden to whomso-
ever desires to lease them. Wages are 81
per month.
The obligation of the Indian draught ami
NAL is to fetch and carry on his back the
load committed to him, whatever may be
the distance and still more, they subrented
without the right of receiving any excess Of
payment. As the poor Indian is never able
to discharge the debt which he has incurred,
through the amount OF $25, usually ad-
vauced to him, he is always a serf, If he
dies his children must work out his obi
CATION.
The Pabellon Naconal suggests as rem
edy for this shocking state of affairs, that
there be passed severe laws. which mpst de-
pend for their application on federal
authorities working in corporation with
local authorities.
1t Is sanguine that whsn peon beasts of
burden find out that a law is protecting
them, they will place themselves under ii.
and make known the abuses which they
suffer.

A Eoyel Excursion Trim

GLENwooD SPRINGS, COL, May 2.-Some
weeks ago two residents of this place con-
ceived the idea of making novel and e1cit-
ing excursion this summer, which for bold
ness has seldom been equalled. They pro-
pose to start from this point and 60 by
water to the Gulf of California. The route
is down Roaring Fork and Grand rivers,
through Utah, in Arizona, and then into
Mexico by the Colorado river. Some of the
grandest canon scenery in the world is to be
seen along the route, notable, the Cataract
canon in Utah, and Marble and Grand canon
in Arizona. Owing to the many rapids the
trip will be continual round of danger and
excitement. A boat has been built espec-
tally for the trip. In shape it resembles tor
pedo boat, the forward part being covered
with light decking to protect the provisions
and ammunition. Air tight compartments are
arranged in several places to prevent sink
ing in case of accident. The excursionists
expect to take several weeks for the trip and
will fish and hunt when opportunity offers.
If nothing occurs the start will be made
this evening,

the Campaign.
TOLEDO, O., May 25-The Ohio prohibit
m, and perfected its organization by elect
ing Rev. b. A. Thomson, of Westerville,
President, and Rev. 8. P. Mills, secretary.
A period of tedious waiting ensued, as the
committee on resolutions was fercely de-
batting over the insertion of q woman suf-
frage plank. 1t was nearly noon when the
report was made.
The platform, in its preamble, recognizes
good as the supreme ruler of all nations, to
Ehcse law all human laws should confirm.
The resolutions declare the manufacture
and sale of intoxicating liquors a
crime, supported by enormous orga-
nizations, which can only be over
thrown by political party, and demands
the entire prohi bition of their manufacture
and sale, importation, expectation and inter
state, and declares the legislation for taxing
or licensing the traffic, as oorrupting and
that local option is not resolution of the
problem that suffrage inheres in citizenship,
and should be restricted only to protect the
country from the incompetent or ignorant.
and favoring a constitutional amendment
embodying this.
1t favors the enforcement of all Sunday
laws, and declares that the craftsmanship,
required to deal with the liquor traffic, can
be trusted to deal with the tariff and all
other subjects, and favors just pensions to
honorably discharged soldiers.
Mr.. Mills, last years prohibition candidate
for lieutenant governor, offered q substitute
for the Womans' Suffrage plank. which,
after hot debate, was Lost by a vote of LOO
to d4o. The convention then adjourned to
