and was almost Immediately made secretary
project Of the town. He was professor Of
natural science in the College of Santa Cruz
and for a while was fiscal agent of the govern
ment. In 1866 he went to La Paz IS deputy
from Santa Cruz and then received the APP
polntment of first clerk III the Office OF the
minister of foreign affairs. This opened up
his successful diplomatic career, for a year
later he was promoted to be first secretary OF
the Bolivian legation to Mexico, Gen. Quevado
being minister at the time. From Mexico
Senior Nelarde was sent on special mission to
Bre"ll, Uruguay and the Argentine Republic,
ani this proving successful he returned to
Bolivia and was made subsecretary of the for
elgn Office, q place he held with credit for
three years. In 1870 il was necessary that
Bolivia should send to England diplomat
who could restore the rnptured relations be-
tween the two countries. and Senior Velarde
was selected as the one best fitted to make the
attempt His reception was very chilly, but
his mission was successful. AS an incident to
the trip Senior Velarde called at Lima while en-
route to England and secured, on most advan-
tageous terms. a national loan of "a. 000. 900.
change in the political character of the govern
ment came on at that time, so Senior Velarde
retired from public life and became interested
IN numerous commercial enterprises. princi-
pally connected with inland navigation. In
1874 he was elected once more to represent
Santa Cruz IN congress, and in 1881 his fellow
citizens sent him to act for them in the consti-
tutlOnal convention which was held at La
PaZ- In 1882 he was named for congress
from tbA department of Cochabamba and
from that he stepped up to BE- the senator from
Santa Cruz. Senior Velarde was appointed min
lister resident to Brazil ID 1885, and before his
return to Bolivia, which took place in 1887. he
negotiated a commercial treaty between the two
countries. While home on a vacation in 1887,
and on his way through Sucre, the then presi-
dent, Senior PachecO, nominated him as min
lister OF foreign relations in his cabinet This
responsible position he filed through Pacheco's
administration and into the earlier part of the
term of DIR. Aniceto Arce, who is still president.
After leaving the cabinet he was sent to Potosi
as project (governor); and, although his ad-
mInlstration there was very satisfactory. it was
deemed best to further honor him by sending
him to the United States, in September last as
the Bolivian representative and delegate to the
conference.
Senior yelarde is journalist of considerable
repute- He founded the newspaper HeroLGio at
Cochabamba in 1861 and it is today q fine piece
OF property, still in his possession

Mr.. Estee moved to San Francisco and there
built up very extensive law practice-one of
the largest on the coast. Again was Mr.. Estee
elected to the legislatu re. this time from San
francisco, and was made speaker of the house.
In 1877 he was elected to the constitutional
convention and rendered excellent service as
chairman of the committee on corporations
lie was a presidential elector when Mr. Hayes
was elected to the presidency and in
that same year received the unanimous
vote of the republicans in the legislature for
United States senator, but lacked seven votes
of getting there so the democrats elected
Farley. In 1882 Delegate Estee was nominated
for governor, but there was democratic tidal
wave that year and the republicans of California
were submerged just as effectually as were their
brethren in the east. At the last national
republican convention Mr.. Estee was
elected chairman. and when the bill under which
this conference was called became law the
President. at the unanimous request OF the Pa
cihc slope delegation, appointed him delegate.
Mr.. Estee is heavily interested in fruit raising
and has very extensive orchards and vineyards
in Napa county, California. His beautiful
home there is known as ''Hedgeside." He is
the author of 'Estees Pleadings. a legal work
which is the standard in the courts west of Chi
cago; no lawyer in that region but has a copy
of that three-volume authority.
Personally Mr.. Estee is a m9st attractive man;
his nature is full of sympathy and he gives 1t
out to the needy in allopathc doses. His stock
OF cheerfulness is inexhaustibie and the loss of
fortune would not saCken the kindly force of
his hand shake. He il typical Californian;

tefanos had charge of, SUCCESSFULLY the port
