city OF the west the three greatest of
the republics are about TO join in con-
gratulations, for Canada is a republic
in all but name. and Mexico is a repub-
lie, with liberty slightly restricted per-
haps, but ever broadening and keeping
pace with the advancing intelligence
Of the country.
All those rulers have shown them
selves to be great men, all have figured
prominently in history. Opportunities
have been greatest, perhaps. for the
Mexican, and he mastered every one
with consummate skill. Born Of native
or Indian parentage, he was given
limited education with the priesthood
In view. He preferred the law, but at
his country's call entered the>army in
n humble capacity TO fight against the
United States. Later he joined in The
revolution against Santa Anna, who
sought 30 overthrow the rights the peo-
pie had already gained from former
tyranis. Courageous and faithful, he
rose in the army and the estimation of
the people, having no little part in the
constitution OF 1857, under which Be
nito Janrez, the liberator, was elected
president. Rebeliions were numerous
throughout the country and Diaz added
10 his fame by supporting Jaurez.
While the country was still in turmoil
came the foreign invasions, first in de-
mand Of payment OF repudiated debts,
and then taking advantage OF our own
civil war, Austria. France and Spain
combined 10 defy the Monroe doctrine
and make the country an empire for
Macmillan. At Puebla Diaz was tenn
porarily i'm command OF a division and
ii was he who gave the impershable
5th OF May to the Mexican nation. His
defense OF the city was masterful and
heroic. The following year he was be-
sieged in the city he had so heroically
defended. lie undermined the allied
army, but his powder was so limited he
could not blow II up, and when he had
exhausted all provisions he surrendered
his starving army. Started for France,
he escaped and raised 5000 men,
who became frightened and de-.
serted, and Diaz was again prisoner
for seven months, only TO escape again
and raise another army.
Macmillan. whose throne was tot
tering, offered the commanding OF his
army 20 Diaz. then he offered 60 give
him the throne, and then he implorcd
for permission 20 escape with 5000 men
and set sail for Europe. All PROPOSE
tions were rejected with scorn. He
captured Pnebla. where he gave Mex
leo another glorious page, and be-
sieged the City Of Mexico and received

Wilfrid Laurier is distinguished APP
pearing man Of 5s years He was born
in Quebec province of an old French
family and educated for the law. He
has also been a journalist. At the age
Of 20 he was sent to the Quebec legisla-
ture. His eloquence and ability won
n seat in the Canadian parliament three
years later. In 1877 he entered che cab
met as minister of Ireland revenue,
failed of election in Quebec, but
East Quebec returned him 10 par
lament, and he has since held
that seat. 1t was in 1887 that Mr..
Laurier was unanimously chosen
leader of the liberal party. and when his
party came in power he become the
premier or chief of government in all
things except in foreign affairs, Eng
land retaining control over such mat
tiers.
Laurier Is courageous in speech and
act He has never hesitated to speak
his convictions, though many times by
SO doing he was believed TO have COM
mitted political suicide He has been
charged with disloyalty IL favoring un-
restricted trade with the United States.
ms such intercourse tx believed by the
opposition TO mean annexation 10 this
country. He was carried down with many
others In the exposure OF fraud In Sir
John Macdonald's government, but rose
stronger than before. He o7ercame by
his sincerity the English dislike of his
ancestry and religion, and threw down
the gauntlet TO his church, which de-
manded extraordinary advantages and
portion OF the school funds. He
denounced the priests for threatening
the parishioncrs at the polls, and the
result was the defeat In Quebec, and
the rising of East Quebec to his rescue.
he is revered by all for removing the
prejudice that divided the English and
French speaking Canadians. which
his remarkable eloque1Re in both Ian
guages enabled him tyllo.
Mr.. Laurier at present is urging his
claims for territory heretofore gem
orally understood 20 belong TO the
United States. so that his country may
have a harbor near the Alaska and
northern gold fields, and has let fall
an utterance Of war. and has censured
McKinley's policy. President Diaz also
censured the famous Mckinley bill, but
the adoption Of this measure resulted
bepeficially TO Mexico. These differ
e1cess however. are confined 10 ma
tional affairs, and the art Of diplomacy
usually straightens them out. They
will detract nothing from the warmth
OF the meeting Of the three great men,
nor their welcome by Chicago and the
country. NJ. II. WILLIAMSON.
