stock. $4,000, 900 common stock and
mortgage 5 per cent bonds 20 the
amount of $1,000 900. For the frst two
years it held every outlet from the Grip

HAS PRAISE TOR
PRESIDENT DIAZ
Artist George H. Taggart Returns
From Mexico.
PAINTED RULERS PORTRAIT
PICTURE TO BE PRESENTED 10
EMPEROR OF GERMANY.

The greatest man ever met" was
the expression used by Artist George
II. Taggart. in describing President
Diaz Of the Mexican republic
Mr. Taggart has just returned from
q six months visit to Mexico, where ne
mas been painting a portrait Of the eel.
ebrated ruler, and is in q position 10
speak concerning his personality. A
high compliment was paid to the Salt
Lake artists work by President Diaz,
as he selected the portrait painted by
Mr.. Taggart as the one TO be presented
10 Emperor William Of Germany. Dur
ing the time consumed in completing
the portrait Mr.. Taggart had ample
opportunity to study the character Of
his subject, and he speaks I'm the high
est terms of the Mexican presidents
ability.
President Diaz is a seIf-made man, %
said Mr.. Taggart. Before he assumed
the control Of the Mexican government
he was but an humble rancher. There
IS a small house a short distance from
tho City OF Mexico that Diaz built with
his own hands, and he points to IL even
now with pride. 1t is claimed that at
one time the man who is now president
OF the Mexican republic set up a sta
tonary engine unassisted. although he
had never before seen the working
parts Of such a machine.
Has Peoples Confidence.
There seems to be nothing that Diaz
cannot do. and it is the confidence of
the people I'm his ability that has kept
him at the head of that nation for
twenty years
Contrary to the general belief, Pres
1dent Diaz is not "A hard man to get
along with. It has been claimed by
L..
irrational on certain subjects. This is
not true. In my experience with the
Mexican I found him a most broad
minded man, and an agreeable COM
panion. His head has not been turned
by the many honors thrust upon him.
and he is courteous. though dignified
TO all"
Mr.. Taggart was greatly impressed
with the art effects in nature to be
found in Mexico.
From an artistic standpoint that
country is a veritable Mecca. Subjects
arc TO be found on every hand and the
natural color effects are unexcelled any
where"
In speaking Of the climate. the artist
said that on account OF the high alti-
tude, the City OF Mexico is not the best
place i'm the world to live.
Situated 1900 feet above the sea and
in tropical country. the climate is an
unusual one. Everybody down there
sleeps during the heat of the day and
the custom is so general that most OF
the stores and business houses close up
for a few hours about noon time We
became accustomed 20 the midday
sleeps and found it just as necessary To
take a nap at noon as to sleep al
night"
Mr.. and Mrs. Taggart will remain
for a few days in Salt Lake, after
which they leave for an extended triu
through Europe.

CALL FOR MASS MEETING
In ArmOry Hall Friday Evening
at 1880 O'clock

To get a full and free expression
of the people of the city on the propo-
sition of building, furnishing and
maintaining a public library, it has
been decided by those who are deeply
interested in the project to call a
mass meeting for the discussion of
plans in connection Herewith. Ar
rangemtnts have been made to hold
this meeting on Friday evening, No
vember Is, in Armory hall, the use
of which Manager Rose kindly offered
free of charge. The meeting will be
given all the publicity possible, and
every citizen of Winnemucca should
feel it his duty to attend the meeting
and in every way further the project.
The criticism of the movement for
a library has all been of the most fav-
orable chartcter; in fact, the first word
OF opposition to the plan is yet to
be heard. Everybody who has ex-
pressed an opinion is heartily in fav-
or of it, and all admit the necessity
of the institution. Particularly is
his true of , the younger element of
society, who are greatly handicapped
by the lack of a good, modern refer
ence library, such as few towns of the
size of Winnemucca are without. A
library as has been planned, with
reading rooms, baths and gymnas-
iums in connection, is not a mere lux
ury, but an actual necessity; the
need of it has long been felt, and the
people of the town can make no bet
ter investment of the comparatively
small amount required than to con-
tribute toward the library.
The meeting will be held at 1880
Friday evening, in Armory hall.
Every citizen and taxpayer of the
town should be there. and the attend
ance of the ladies is especially de-
sired and requested. 11-3t
