and that. at any rate. his management OF affairs
during his connection with the dock will be q

be found faulty. II so then White will be held
responsible.
This is not the first time that he has been at
odds with the naval authorities. Some years
ago he was removed from duty as superintend-
ent Of the dock building Puget Sound, and at
present is on leave in Ohio Late reports state
the dock will be ready TO receive ships in July.

The Limantour family is among the
oldest and wealthiest in the country,
and Don Jose is one of several infiu-
entail brothers, being a graduate at
law. During an extended acquaintance,
Senior Limantour has frequently eX-
pressed to me his frank admiration for
Americans and the social and political
institutions of the United States. He
has made discriminating study of the
United States system of government,
and credits it with being in most re-
spects the best the world has ever
known, saying that he wishes Mexico
to grow to the same general standard.
He speaks English, and has several
times visited the United States, the
last occasion being in the summer of
1896, when he took notes on the silver
campaign in this country.
A change in the present policy of
liberal friendlineSS on the part of the
Mexican government to Americans
and American interests would seriously
affect the profitablenesS of their heavy
investments in this country: but no
fear need be felt on that account if
either Senior Limantour or General
Reyes come to power. The latter has
induced so many manufacturers from
the United States to locate at Monte
rey, the capital of the state of Nuevo
Leon, of which he is governor, that
the American colony there is nearly
as large as that of the City of Mexico,
and numbers about 1000 people.
Two older men often mentioned for
the presidency are Senior Ignacio Mar
iscal, secretary of foreign relations in
the Mexican cabinet and former minis
ter to the United States; and Don
Matias Romero, present Mexican envoy
to Washington. Both of these diplo-
matists are equally friendly to the
United States, and are counted among
the strongest men in the Mexican serv-
ice. EDWARD PAGE CASTOR.

railroad building to the extent of the

President Diaz has built up system.
of free public education, so that any
one who today desires self improve

said that the public school system is
one of the strong factors in his coun-
try's future and that the $500, 600
which the government is now spending
annually on this branch of the public
service will be increased rather than
diminished.
No one has been a more interested
observer of the Spanish-American war
and the effectiveness of modern killing
machinery than General DiaZ. He is
slowly building up an efficient Mexi-
can army and navy, and is on the
lookout for the latest advances in war

when Mexico will be a definite power

small navy is steadily increasing.
The feature of the military demon
stration which arouses most enthusi-
asm in the crowds during the Septem-
Der celebration is the appearance of
the Mounted Rurales, the rough
riders of Mexico. They go swinging
by on mettled horses, cinched under
silver-trimmed saddles, and the men
wear their snowy "Charro" leather
uniforms becomingiy. This is the great

airy spirit so natural in the southern

civilian can now be safely entrusted
with executive power; otherwise he
would name General Reyes as his first
presidential choice.
Senior Limantour has rendered such
signal service at the head of the treas

confidence of all classes. Largely by
