Lawlessness prevailed in all sections
of the republic. Title to property was
insecure. The currency was debased.
Foreign capital would not invest.
Pauperism was at every twist of the
road.
DiaZ, the son of a poor innkeeper
of Oaxaca, must have possessed Ma
poleonic qualities to have brought
about a state of affairs the reverse
of that existing when he was made
president. Under Santa Ana he dem
onstrated his bravery. He fought the
French at Pueblo with famed brav-
cry. He besieged Marquee in the City
of Mexico and FASTENED the downfall
of Maximilian, and when the war
was at an end he proved himself mas
ter in ~statecraft.
Rubio was one of his early oppo-
nents. He raised an army against
him, defeated him and his chief Lerdo
and then married Rubio's daughter.
The marriage was one of love and

How pleasant to think that this
fair land came to us without the
shedding of human blood or the sac
riice of human life. Through the
foresight of Thomas Jefferson and
the skill of American diplomacy its
acquisition was peacefully accomp-
lished.
The purchase price of real estate

life. Not so with this Louisiana ac-
QUESTION. 1t was money only that it
cost us. Fifteen million dollars in

twelve great states and two terrific

Viewed from a business stand
point it was the greatest real estate
transaction on record in the worlds
history.
The Louisiana Purchase EXPOSE

ly grand and national the centennial
of the peaceful acquisition of this
territory.
And the nations of the world are
assembled here to join with us in
the great celebration, to take us by
the hand in friendly greeting and
wish us God speed; to behold in
these grand palaces and buildings
and the American exhibits found
there the evidence of our greatness
and power, and to prove by their
